Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.

In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.

I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.

Nice to meet you all. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to grow as a clinician while supporting others. The first half of my career I spent working with adolescents in schools and in their homes as a therapist. I gained a deep appreciation for their resilience, insight and growth. I currently work with adults who have both mental and physical challenges providing compassionate, person-centered care.

Michele Marciano

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I've spent ten years in mental health — nine of them in the intersection of addiction and trauma — and what I've learned is that clinical tools only work when they're explained in ways people can actually use outside the therapy room.

My approach is energetic and practical: I break things down in plain language, connect them to real-life situations, and help clients build skills they can apply immediately. I work with adults on anxiety, PTSD, trauma, substance use, eating disorders, OCD, BPD, infertility, family stress, and relationship challenges.

As a Native American therapist, I bring cultural awareness and lived understanding to my work — especially for clients navigating identity, systemic barriers, and experiences that don't always fit standard clinical frameworks.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfield

Finding the right therapist in Fairfield, NJ starts with getting clear on the type of support you're looking for. If you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a life transition, look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and whether they might be a good match.

Practical details matter, too. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near Fairfield or virtual appointments, what days and times work for your schedule, and whether a provider's style resonates with you. Many providers offer a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask questions and see if you feel comfortable before booking a full session.

Therapy in New Jersey can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider in Fairfield who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
