I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in a variety of fields (psychiatric screening, infectious disease case management, school based individual and family therapy services). I've worked successfully with individuals, couples and families, and I am a dedicated, compassionate and attentive clinician with an innate ability to connect to people.
Feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Experiencing high-functioning anxiety and burnout? Or just struggling to get through the day? I help clients build clarity, confidence, and practical tools for everyday life. I specialize in anxiety, life transitions, and strengthening your sense of self. With experience across all life stages, including young adults and retirees, I bring a steady, direct, and nonjudgmental approach shaped by my background in correctional settings—there’s very little you could say that would surprise me. We can take the first step together!
Hi, I’m Jennifer! I’ve spent over 10 years working with individuals and families of all ages, helping them tackle life’s challenges—from anxiety and depression to trauma, life transitions, and family dynamics (and everything in between). I’m all about creating a safe, supportive space where you can show up just as you are.
Hi, I'm Amanda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of RIVE Counseling. I support women who are feeling emotionally overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but privately struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, relationship stress, or feeling disconnected from themselves. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and start making sense of what you've been carrying.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Jersey
Finding a therapist in New Jersey starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Think about the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, or something else — and whether you'd prefer virtual sessions or in-person visits. New Jersey is home to a wide range of licensed providers, including licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists, each with different training and areas of focus.
With so many providers practicing across the state, narrowing your options can take time. Reading a provider's bio is one of the most useful steps you can take. Look for details about their approach, the populations they work with, and what a session with them looks like. A free phone consultation, when available, can also help you decide if a provider feels like the right match before you commit.
Therapy in New Jersey can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session depending on their coverage and location.
