Julia Hayward

Julia Hayward

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • New Providence, NJ


Hi, I’m Julia, and I’m passionate about helping people find strength, clarity, and balance in their lives. I’ve been working in the field for over twenty years, with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, seniors, and parents through life’s many transitions. I’m a graduate of Columbia University, where I focused on working with children and families. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside clients from many different backgrounds as they work through both everyday stress and life’s biggest challenges.

I believe the structure of the therapeutic relationship can help people access their inner strengths and promote meaningful change. Therapy gives us space to pause, reflect, and make sense of how the different parts of our lives — our relationships, health, identity, and environment — impact our well-being. Together, we’ll sort through challenges, set realistic goals, and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded and empowered.

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

Searching for therapists in Fairfield starts with finding a therapist whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Fairfield therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and populations served in each profile. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that fit your needs.

Fairfield is a smaller community, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. When comparing options for therapy in Fairfield, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and approach to care.

Therapy in Fairfield can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more accessible. Headway helps you find a Fairfield therapist who accepts your plan, offers upfront cost estimates, and can be booked directly. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book when you’re ready.
