Dr. Pamela Kennebrew

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I support individuals navigating life’s transitions—whether that means marriage, divorce, retirement, relocation, empty nesting, menopause, or simply the quiet realization that life is asking for something new.

My practice is rooted in culturally responsive, client-centered care that honors the full complexity of who you are—not just the labels others may place on you. I believe healing begins when people feel truly seen, understood, and supported without judgment.

While I work with individuals from all walks of life, I have a special passion for supporting women of color, particularly those 55 and older, who are redefining themselves in powerful new seasons of life.

You do not have to navigate change alone.

Together, we will work toward the life you are seeking—personally, professionally, and spiritually.

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hello there! My name is Anjelica and I look forward to learning more about you! I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in the field. I received my BA in Psychology from Penn State and my MSW from Walden University. The majority of my experience as a young social worker came from a large community mental health agency in Ocean County, NJ. I spent a lot of time with individuals with severe and persistent mental illness (schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, major depression, trauma, ext). One of my favorite populations to work with are the homeless. I spent years working for PATH in the community and found this work exceptionally rewarding. I also worked for a time with local police departments as the department social worker. Another population I enjoy working with is teens. My graduate internship was at a shelter for children and adolescents aged 10-19 who were homelessness or waiting for foster placement. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, and seniors in an outpatient therapeutic setting.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Jersey City, NJ

Finding postpartum therapists in Jersey City starts with looking for someone whose training fits your needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare Jersey City therapists, look for specialties in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or postpartum support. Some therapists may also list a perinatal mental health certification, such as PMH-C, which can signal added training in care before and after birth.

In Jersey City, location and scheduling can shape which therapist is a practical match. An office near your home, workplace, PATH station, or bus route may help if you prefer in-person therapy in Jersey City, NJ. Virtual appointments can also expand access to a postpartum specialist, especially when your schedule shifts, infant care changes, or you are managing physical recovery. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session format, therapeutic approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Postpartum therapy in Jersey City can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for postpartum therapists in Jersey City who are accepting new patients, compare detailed bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can filter by insurance, appointment type, specialty, and availability, making it easier to find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has time to meet.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
