Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Kelly. Taking this step is big. I provide a down-to-earth, humorous yet warmly empathetic space to spark real change (sweats and pet cameos are welcomed!). I help clients navigate trauma, stress, depression, parenting (and co-parenting), grief, as well as relationship and addiction challenges. Let's work together to find your path forward.

Is your child remarkably sweet, yet intensely difficult? Let's fill up your toolbox and reduce your stress.

You love your spouse but are the end of your rope. Relationships can be healed through accountability and communication to get back "that loving feeling."

I will help you and your loved ones improve communication to find peace and live a happier existence.

Now is the time to find your peace and finally live a happier existence. Act on the motivation you have today and meet me in session. You can conveniently book your session, to the right of my bio.

If you would like to chat briefly prior to booking, I would be happy to. My number is 973-245-9041 ... If not now, when?

I’m a licensed therapist and intuitive healer who helps clients reconnect with themselves and reclaim their peace. My background blends traditional clinical training with holistic practices like reiki energy work, somatic practices and mindfulness, allowing me to meet clients where they are- mind, body, and spirit.

I specialize in supporting people who’ve carried too much for too long — those navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or complex family dynamics. My approach is real, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I don’t believe in quick fixes or surface-level advice; I believe in helping you understand your story, heal old wounds, and move forward feeling grounded, confident, and aligned.

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hello, and welcome! I'm Lynn Moreno-Buckmon, LPC, founder of Hello Sunshine Wellness & Educational Services, LLC.

I specialize in helping adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress, life transitions, and the emotional weight that can make it difficult to move forward. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in survival mode, or simply longing for more peace and purpose, you don't have to navigate it alone.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Trauma & Performance Psychology Specialist, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where healing and growth can begin. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, integrating proven therapeutic approaches while honoring your unique experiences, strengths, and goals.

I believe that healing is more than reducing symptoms—it's about reclaiming your life. Together, we'll work to understand the patterns keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, process difficult experiences, and help you reconnect with the person you want to become. My goal is to empower you to create lasting emotional wellness, healthier relationships, greater confidence, and a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to walk alongside you on that journey. My mission is to provide a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to heal, grow, and thrive.

Healing. Growth. Transformation.

I look forward to meeting you.

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.
