I have 31 years of nursing experience and specialize in the evaluation and treatment of mental health conditions, including postpartum depression. I also treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD and OCD. I started out in maternity and pediatrics as my nursing career and then went back to school for my masters, PMHNP certification and doctoral degree. I have also taught nursing students in undergraduate and graduate curriculums. I believe meaningful healing starts with being truly heard. I take a holistic, collaborative approach to care—working with you to understand the root causes of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your overall well-being, looking at medications and holistic measures such as diet and supplements in order to heal. Some of the most important nutrients essential for brain health include Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Vitamin D Vitamin A Folate and Protein. Treatment includes evidence-based medications, therapy, supplements, and nutrition management tailored to your unique needs, culture, goals, and comfort level. I believe in managing your gut health can manage your brain health and provide you to be a better healthier person inside out. Treatment plans are individualized, collaborative, and focused on restoring stability, functioning, and overall well-being.

Hello! After completing clinical social work studies at Saint Louis University's College of Public Health and Social Justice in 2014 I practiced community mental health in hospice and adult outpatient throughout Monmouth County, NJ till 2022. During this time I became EMDRIA certified (2020), and have continued to grow in exposure with the grief process. Seeing the inextricable link between chronic illness and trauma has fueled my commitment to seek diverse tools for assisting clients while they are living.

I am an LCSW with many years experience working with trauma survivors and mothers. I teach DBT skills to help you manage stress and relationships and build a life worth living. Then I utilize IFS and EMDR to help you process past trauma so you can feel even better.

Hello! My name is Tajuddin Abdullah, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience providing individual therapy across partial hospitalization and residential programs, as well as within New Jersey public schools.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages, with a particular passion for supporting adolescents, teenagers, and young adults as they build self-esteem, strengthen resilience and communication skills, and set realistic, achievable goals.

I’ll take time to understand what brings you to counseling, explore your goals, and discuss any challenges you may be facing. Together, we’ll identify strategies and approaches that best fit your needs.

Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time with my family, taking mini vacations, competing in cornhole, and talking about my favorite Philadelphia sports teams.

Hi, I’m Margie. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping children and adults navigate their healing journeys. Currently, I work with adults experiencing perinatal mood disorders (ie postpartum depression or anxiety), those navigating the journey to parenthood, or struggling to become a parent.

Hello and welcome! I have been assisting clients with navigating some of the most difficult stages of life. I have provided services with clients between the ages of 4 and 96. I specialize in aging, grief/loss and life transitions.

Know that I bring over 7 years of experience and a genuinely holistic, open-minded approach to every session. Expect a therapist who leads with empathy rather than clinical distance. I've spent my career working with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and questions of identity, and I understand that those experiences are often shaped by culture, race, gender, and community in ways textbooks rarely capture. Trust that you can bring your full self here, including the parts of your story that feel complicated or hard to name.

When your child is struggling, finding the right support can make all the difference. I am here to help your child or teen manage their symptoms, strengthen emotional regulation, and improve self-esteem/confidence. Your child can learn to express their thoughts and feelings effectively to improve their overall functioning at home, school, and socially.
