Therapists in South River, NJ

Welcome! Challenges in life, such as struggling with anxiety, depression or relationship conflict can take a huge toll. That toll manifests in so many aspects of our lives and is hard to manage. Our daily functioning with family, coworkers, and friends can be affected. Having a safe, non-judgmental, and empathic therapy space is key to being able to achieve any goals in therapy.

Grief and loss comes at us in many different way. Feeling lost after a major life transition? Devastated by a prognosis/diagnosis of you or a loved one? Confused what to do as a relationship changes? Sometimes we feel so overwhelmed we don't know what to do, or even where to start. I am experienced in helping people process grief, loss and change while not missing the opportunity for growth while acknowledging how difficult this time can be.

Hello! I'm Jessica, a psychotherapist here to help you learn more about yourself and live a more fulfilling life. I work primarily with young adults, adults and teenagers. I specialize in anxiety and depression, as well as trauma, relationship issues and women's issues. My approach to therapy is helping my clients learn more about themselves and empowering them to make changes that will meet their goals. My clients can expect to feel more self-aware and at peace with themselves. They can also expect to have a greater understanding of their emotions and triggers. With therapy, I hope to help others feel more authentic and confident.

Welcome. I am accepting new clients. My path to becoming a therapist began with a deep-rooted desire to create a safe space for healing and growth. I developed a passion for empowering individuals through therapy. As a Latinx therapist, I bring a culturally sensitive approach to my practice, honoring the unique backgrounds and experiences of each client. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, ensuring that language is never a barrier to receiving the support you deserve.

Accepting new clients! Have you been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? Perhaps you feel like you don’t know what to do or who to turn too. I understand this feeling, but I also know what it feels like to fully recover from this dark place. I believe that anyone who wants to change their life is able to take the steps necessary if they have the right support. At Olive Branch Therapy Group we are here for you to start that journey. During this therapeutic journey, we will begin by building a strong, supportive rapport. I understand that nothing is more important than feeling heard and understood.

Welcome! I’ve worked with individuals of all ages in various settings with various populations such as children and family agencies, schools, criminal justice advocacy, individuals with disabilities, pregnant and post-partum mothers, substance abuse (with and without opioid maintenance therapy), co-occurring disorders, case management services, planning special events for girls and women’s empowerment, mental health diagnosing and counseling (depression, anxiety, psychosis, etc) and services regarding coping with life stressors.

Starting on May 1, 2023, I will be open to accepting new clients. I offer both in-person and online sessions as options for my clients. My approach is centered around empowering clients through acceptance and change. With over 20 years of clinical work experience, a Master's degree in social work focused on family therapy, and post-graduate education in psychotherapy at CPPNJ, as well as the practice of mindfulness principles, I have developed a diverse set of tools to assist individuals struggling with life's challenges.

Welcome. Accepting new clients. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment for clients to be their authentic selves. I lead with curiosity and empathy to provide clients with a sense of understanding and comfort. You can expect engagement and collaboration as we journey together through the therapeutic process.

I first want to congratulate you for deciding to take this huge step! Looking for a therapist is not as easy as you would expect it to be. Sometimes the connection is missing or the vibe does not feel right, which often leads to an unsuccessful experience with therapy. Whether you are experiencing grief, or anxiety, or have been feeling in a funk lately, therapy may be the perfect outlet for you to be able to voice these worries and concerns.

I help individuals build fulfilling relationships – with themselves and with others. In order to connect with others we must first have a solid connection to our own self. In order to have a solid sense of self we need to build internal awareness and find language to understand our experiences. When we can communicate about our experiences, we find meaning, purpose, and connection – all factors essential for well-being and overall life quality. From a trauma-informed, relational perspective, I will help you explore the past as well as the present so that you can get the most out of your future.

First and foremost, I commend you on making this decision for yourself and your mental health. Therapy is a bridge that is meant to help others achieve emotional peace in their life. This process is never easy, but my belief is that we are all worth the effort in living a life where we feel emotionally grounded, safe, and secure. Your stress and worries are always valid, and therefore you deserve an outlet, just for you.

Within my years of experience, I’ve been genuinely invested in working alongside clients assisting them in having better self-understanding, acknowledging strengths, and exercising weaknesses. I specialize in anxiety, depression, family dynamics resolution, assisting families with special needs challenges, couples and marriage counseling, parenting skills, and psychoeducation. I have an optimistic approach to working with individuals, couples, and families and an energetic, engaging approach with young children through teletherapy, focusing on also empowering parents and caregivers. Let me help support you on your journey.

Welcome. Accepting new clients. When working together, I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, safe and individualized. My experience has taught me that the most important aspect of counseling by far is the connection and comfort you feel with the person you choose to share your personal struggles. I believe we can all grow through challenging experiences by increasing our self-awareness. You are the expert of your story and have strengths that will assist you in making the changes you want and overcome the things that challenge you, by increasing your insights and developing coping skills.

Life is full of obstacles that at times feel impossible to overcome. In therapy, we will work together to equip you with coping skills that best suit you to make tackling these obstacles possible. Depression, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem are common hindrances that therapy can help find long term solutions enabling you to live to your fullest potential.

We’re pleased you’ve made your first step towards healing. We understand that seeking help, whether for yourself or for your children isn’t always easy. Unfortunately, life doesn’t come with a user’s manual, and when times get tough, many of us are left feeling confused, angry, depressed and helpless. While we can’t provide you with a magical user’s manual to life, we can offer you an ancient symbol of peace, an olive branch. We want to help you extend that olive branch to not only the important relationships in your life but to yourself as well. Because at the end of the day, we all deserve inner peace.
