Tara Dublanica

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.5 mi away • Nutley, NJ


People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are struggling with anxiety, OCD, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Others are navigating life transitions such as starting college, entering adulthood, changing careers, becoming a parent, caring for aging parents, or moving through perimenopause and menopause. Sometimes there isn’t a single crisis. Instead, there is a growing sense that life feels harder than it should, or that old ways of coping are no longer working.

I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are trying to manage the demands of everyday life while carrying a great deal beneath the surface. Many are bright, capable, and caring people who find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, distracted, stuck in patterns of worry, or struggling to make space for their own needs. Together, we work to better understand what is keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Carey Kloske

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • Woodbridge Township, NJ


My path to psychotherapy is anything but conventional. I began my career as a scientist and then a high school science teacher, where a deep curiosity about the world took root. But it was the human connection, the conversations, the stories, that truly lit me up. That led me to Columbia University, where I earned my Master's in Social Work and gained invaluable clinical experience at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. After graduation, I worked in hospice care, walking alongside families through some of life's most profound and challenging moments, an experience that gave me a deep respect for human resilience and the power of being truly heard. After welcoming my three children, I took everything I had learned and channelled it into opening my own private practice. Today, that is where my heart lives. I am endlessly inspired by the people I get to meet, the life stories they share, and the privilege of watching them grow. Whatever has brought you here, I would love to hear your story too.

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 an Anxiety Therapist in Livingston, NJ

Searching for therapists in Livingston starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. People often look for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Livingston is a smaller community, so the number of nearby offices may be more limited than in larger parts of New Jersey. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. You may also want to filter by appointment availability, whether a 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 the types of concerns each therapist supports.

Therapy in Livingston can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, check your insurance coverage for your specific plan and location, and view upfront cost estimates based on your benefits. You can browse therapists in Livingston, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
