I have 45 years of experience and specialize in many areas of expertise - addictions, LGBTQ+ mood disorders, trauma, grief, workplace issues to name a few.. I am a total insurance based practice and slide scale if necessary. Therapy is a process of self healing , discovery, growth and positive change. I try to promote a relaxed, open empathic experience with support and feedback. Prior to a first visit , I will do a 15 minute free consultation to see if we are a good fit. If we schedule an appointment, I will find out insurance benefits because I like all financial expectations out of the way so that it does not take time out of the session. Forms and consents are also sent via email prior to the session, so that any " business" needs are out of the way.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have over 12 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide a warm and supportive place where you can slow down, reflect and reconnect with yourself.
Currently I am focusing on first time mothers and those who are already mothers find balance in their current role, relationships, career and sense of self.
Hi! My name is Tabitha and I have been a therapist for over 6 years. I have spent the majority of my career working with children and families.
As a board-certified Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and Licensed Social Worker, I believe it is imperative to treat co-occurring diagnosis simultaneously. Reaching out for help can be difficult, so congratulations for taking the first step! I've worked primarily in the field of addiction for six years, licensed for four. In the last year, I have shifted my focus on mental health and working with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety and depression.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark
Finding the right therapist in Newark starts with getting clear on what you need. Consider whether you're looking for help with a specific concern — like anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship challenges — or broader support during a life transition. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or psychologist) who has experience with your particular situation. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and approach before you reach out.
Newark is home to a wide range of mental health providers, and many offer both in-person and virtual sessions. If location and scheduling flexibility matter to you, virtual therapy with a New Jersey-licensed provider can open up more options. A free phone consultation — offered by many providers — can also help you decide if someone is the right match before you commit to a session.
Therapy in the Newark area can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
