Hello there!
My name is Timothy Dunn, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Central New Jersey. I have been working in the mental health field since 2016, beginning in inpatient treatment, followed by several years as a case manager supporting adults with severe mental illness, and currently practicing in an outpatient setting since 2022.
I serve a diverse population across age, gender, and mental health concerns, with a focus on treating anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse and neglect, and adolescents. I am looking to work with individuals who are ready to “enter the room” and “do the work,” moving at a pace that feels right for you.
I’m also a husband, father, and proud dog dad who hopes to help heal the world one person at a time.
Hi, I'm Michael. I work with men, couples, families, and adolescents in New Jersey navigating addiction, relationship strain, and the stress that starts to run the whole day. Eight years in have taught me one thing: you already have more capacity for change than you realize. I bring warmth and a solution-focused, eclectic approach.
I am a nurse practitioner with over 20years experience in psychiatric mental health. I am board certification as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner across life span. I completed my advanced Graduate Certification in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Fairleigh Dickinson University in Teaneck, New Jersey. My area of specialization includes treatment of Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar, Posttraumatic disorder (PTSD), Sleep issues and medication management.
Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing something needs to change—it's carrying the weight of it by yourself. Whether you're living with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, or feeling caught between different identities, cultures, or expectations, therapy can be a place to reconnect with yourself. I believe healing begins by understanding your story with curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we'll explore not only what's hurting today, but also the strengths that have helped you survive and the parts of yourself that are ready to grow.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Highland Park
Searching for therapists in Highland Park starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare Highland Park therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to address. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Highland Park is a smaller community, so local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each profile before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.
Therapy in Highland Park can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, check estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
