Sue Santos

Sue Santos

Therapist

Virtual • Hackettstown, NJ


I’m the owner of a growing group practice Guided Hope Center, where our focus is helping individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, mentally drained, or stuck in patterns that aren’t working especially around anxiety, relationships, and life transitions.

With over 10 years in the mental health field, I’ve worked across outpatient and in-home settings and have advanced training in trauma. I’m also trained in the Gottman Method (Level 2) for couples work and provide clinical direction and support to my team in this approach.

When you reach out, I take time to understand what you’re looking for and thoughtfully match you with a clinician in my practice who fits your needs, personality, and goals. Our goal is not just to get you into therapy but to get you connected with the right therapist.

Please note: Couples counseling is offered as a self-pay service and is not billed through insurance. This allows us to focus treatment on the relationship rather than insurance billing requirements. We'd be happy to discuss fees and answer any questions during your consultation.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark

Finding the right couples therapist in Newark, NJ starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can address a range of concerns — from communication patterns and conflict to trust, intimacy, and major life transitions. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LMFT, LCSW, LPC, or psychologist) who has specific experience with couples and whose approach resonates with both of you. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and decide if they feel like a good match.

Newark is home to a diverse community, and the surrounding areas — including East Orange, Irvington, Bloomfield, and Belleville — offer additional options when searching for a couples therapist. Whether you prefer in-person sessions close to home or virtual appointments that fit both partners' schedules, having flexibility in how you attend can make it easier to stay consistent with care.

Couples therapy in the Newark area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a couples therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
