Mia Hollenbach

Mia Hollenbach

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The ideal client is open, courageous, and dedicated to their personal growth. They engage in therapy with honesty, ready to explore and understand their inner world. Embracing change with a patience and self-compassion, they can recognize that healing is a journey. Life is too precious to spend in bad relationships, holding grudges, letting trauma control us, or feeling anxious and angry. Together, we can create a supportive and safe space to work towards a healthier, happier self.

My name is Mia Hollenbach and I received my Master's Degree from Columbia University. I am clinically licensed in both New York and New Jersey and have 8 years of professional experience. I would describe my therapeutic style as warm, affirming, non-judgmental & rooted in compassion.

I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment.

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning! Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I'm here with you every step of the way.

Deirdre Arato

Deirdre Arato

Therapist

Virtual • Toms River, NJ


My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.

Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.

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.
