Hello and Welcome,
I am a psychotherapist in New Jersey with several years of experience working with adults, children and families. I am warm, relaxed and interactive. I have a strong belief in treating others with kindness, compassion and respect. I do not pass judgement nor do I believe in stigmatizing labels.
Therapy can be defined as anything that is done that moves a client toward health and wholeness. Healing requires movement. So, first, we’ll collaborate and determine how you’re stuck in your life. As human beings, we reach out to others for assistance when we’re frustrated and can’t see any options for ourselves in a particular situation. At that point, we’re feeling stuck...with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviors, with feelings that we don’t know how to process, or with a partner or job that’s unfulfilling.
Being or feeling stuck is the last place you want to be. Life is about movement...whether it’s backwards, forwards, up or down. Any kind of movement gets you unstuck and involved in the healing process.
Therapy helps you get unstuck and helps you discern and make conscious choices regarding a course of action.
I use a variety of treatment modalities to help you reach your goals depending on your openness and preferences. These include cognitive behavioral therapy, insight oriented therapy, hypnotherapy and past life regression. Together we decide which treatment option is best suited to meet your needs. Sometimes it's one of these options exclusively, other times, it's a combination of modalities.
My style is warm and collaborative. I'm active in sessions and give clients feedback. One of my goals is to give you something to think about in between sessions.
My post graduate degree from Seton Hall is an Ed.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy. I also have a Th.M. in Pastoral Care and Counseling from Princeton Seminary and a M.Div. from the Lutheran Seminary in Philadelphia.
If you have unproductive behaviors, fears, stress or relationship problems, therapy helps. The first move is to reach out for assistance.
Hello! My name is Jenna. I approach each individual with a profound commitment to person-centered care.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Maplewood
Searching for therapists in Maplewood starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want care for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training, listed specialties, and therapy approaches that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their style, what concerns they often support, and what you can expect in sessions.
Maplewood has a close local community, so in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger nearby cities. Virtual therapy can expand your options across New Jersey while still giving you access to therapists licensed to work with people in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of experience.
Therapy in Maplewood can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find therapists who take your plan, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and offer direct scheduling. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book when you’re ready.
