In the work I do with children and adolescents, the art of healing starts with connection. My goal is to witness your child's experience with them, and guide them to insights that will help them heal and flourish. Additionally, I work side-by-side with my families so that everyone can support my client. I believe that true growth comes from the collaborative effort.

Finding a therapist is stressful. Especially if it's the first time (but perhaps even more so if it's the 7th, 8th, 11th time). I believe strongly that the therapeutic relationship is critical in promoting growth and change, and I am dedicated to providing a safe space where we can work together to figure out a path for you to heal and thrive. I come to each of my sessions with an open mind, and I am flexible in my approach. I know that therapy is not a "one-size-fits-all" kind of thing, therefore I tailor my approach to your individual needs and unique goals.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor with over 20 years in the clinical setting. My mission is to help individuals and their families become healthier in order to have a better quality of life. I use a holistic approach, blending elements from different modalities in order to tailor treatment to clients' individual needs. I treat a wide range of mental health and addiction issues, though my expertise is in mood and anxiety disorders as well as substance use disorders.

Taking the first step in finding a new therapist can be daunting, but I'm glad you made it here. I believe that a safe and supportive environment for therapy is key to successful change, and I emphasize authenticity, empathy and a positive therapeutic style in my practices. I have experience working with clients dealing with depression and anxiety disorders, trauma and post-traumatic-stress disorder, grief and loss, relational issues, chronic illness, intimacy/sexual issues, and substance abuse, as well as supporting couples and families where there is a presence or history of addiction.

Available IN-PERSON & virtual! My passion is helping you navigate eating disorder recovery, distorted body image, and ending the dysfunctional diet/food-behavior spiral. Maybe you're new to recovery, or finding your way back. Our therapeutic relationship gives you a soft place to land and a firm place to launch from. Where you see constant anxiety, relational stress, perfectionism, chronic dysregulation, and shame, I see opportunity for growth. No matter why you're here, if you want to understand yourself, balance taking control and relinquishing it, and build a life worth living, I'm here to support you through it.

You have already invested in personal growth, learned mindfulness, meditate, focus on your wellness... and yet... you still feel stuck. You find yourself apologizing to the waitress when you ask for more salad dressing. You have trouble speaking up to your partner for fear of being called dramatic, too much or over-sensitive. You hate when people post your picture without showing you first. You hear whispers of the old you who wanted big things and know that it is your intuition calling. You want to stop feeling small. You want to make peace with old wounds. ​ You are ready to take up space without apology.

Hello! My name is Dr. Chelece-Atavia Brown, a Pre-Licensed Social Worker (LSW) for New Jersey and a certified facilitator in Teen Mental Health First Aid by the National Council of Well-Being. I have experience in providing therapeutic services for children, teens, adults, couples, and groups. I assist high-achieving Black women and men with navigating life stressors. I'm passionate about bridging the gap between faith and mental health to increase an individual's quality of life.

As an oncology social worker, my clinical expertise relates to helping individuals maximize coping and management of cancer and other chronic illnesses. Every person brings unique characteristics to dealing with illness, so we'll look together for your inner sources of strength to help to find your own best way of coping. We'll work together to find ways to minimize the internal and external stressors that accompany illness, using a strengths-based foundation. Because illness affects the entire family, I work with patients, caregivers and children of patients in individual, couple and family sessions.

When you lose a loved one, it feels like you've lost everything. The world as you once knew it has completely changed, and while everyone else is going about their daily lives, you don't see the point of anything anymore. Even in a room filled with people, you've never felt more alone than you do now. People don't know what to say so they're left with, "I'm sorry for your loss," which is meaningless to you. No one understands the depth of your grief, and you wonder if you'll feel this way forever.

Michaela is a passionate Cognitive Behavioral therapist (which is the most effective, researched, and validated therapy to date). She will work with you to identify and change overly negative thinking and unhelpful behaviors that interfere with your mood, reaching your goals, or hampering interpersonal relationships. She works with those struggling with depression, anxiety, worry, phobias, stress, body image issues, performance anxiety, defiant behavior in children, relationship struggles, and work/school issues.

Are you pregnant, ready to enjoy the 'pregnancy glow,' or a new mom, hoping to 'enjoy this stage while it lasts?' Yet inside, you feel alone, in need of support. You are not sure if you ate lunch today, cannot recall the last time you had a decent night's sleep, and are in constant worry. Perhaps you are concerned about your baby's health, have undesirable thoughts popping up, or feel detached and alone. You have a strong desire to speak to someone and find support, but the idea of finding someone who you are comfortable with appears daunting and far too exhausting.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to embark on a journey towards understanding themselves and commit to working with me to progressively achieve their goals and desires.

Hello and Welcome. Are you feeling overwhelmed, dealing with ADHD symptoms, anxiety, depression, guilt, inappropriate eating, an inability to focus. Let’s work together. I have guided individuals and families to better cope with family relationships, special education issues, ADHD, eating disorders, and other marital and parenting issues. I incorporate CBT and DBT techniques to assist in making more immediate behavioral changes; as we work through more challenging issues. My goal for clients is to assist them in gaining the wisdom and confidence to create change in their life.

My focus is on the treatment of children, adolescents and families. Children often present with behavior and learning challenges, anxiety, depression, stress and technology obsessions. Parents play a significant role in developing goals and strategies. I also focus on the adolescent years and work frequently with school stress, social challenges, anxiety, depression, technology inundations and athletic performance. Overarching is the culture and dynamic of the families in which children and adolescents live. The goal is to feel better about our self, interact better with those in our life and develop skills to manage.

My ideal client has a desire to heal and change their life. They must approach the counseling journey with openness and curiosity. It does not matter what issues or needs they bring to me because together, we can make magic happen and their goals and desires come to fruition. The most important thing is again that willingness and desire to change.

Life can be hard and full of strife, especially when you feel alone. But we are not meant to walk through life alone, wondering if our experiences are normal, and unsure of ourselves. Whether you are an experienced therapy goer or have no idea what therapy is or does, we all have dealt with things that have felt insurmountable, feelings that are unshakable, and problems that seem impossible to tackle. My view on therapy is that it is a systemic way we can address the issues you face in your life and relationships by collaborating to understand them, how they affect you, and what you would like to be different..

Work. Family. Friends. Why can't life be simpler? With multiple deadlines, a growing to-do list, and a family and social life that demands attention. You know that you can be successful, but you're beginning to think that you are dropping too many balls. The constant pressure to perform is turning into unrelenting anxiety and your performance is suffering. Therapy sounds like it might be a good idea, but no way can you dedicate seasons or years to making things better. Your work cannot wait, your spouse/lover cannot wait, you cannot wait. Efficiency is critical. Confidentiality is critical. But you're ready to do what it takes.

My ideal client is at a place where they are ready and willing to accept their issues and want to do therapeutic work. They may have issues with depression, anxiety, or substance use. They may need to work on self-acceptance, medication management, or developing and implementing coping skills.
