I'm Vesna Vidojevikj, a psychiatric nurse practitioner licensed in New Jersey and New York, with nearly 9 years of specialized experience in mental health. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD, and I also support clients navigating depression, PTSD, trauma, OCD, and addiction. I believe mental health care should be more than a prescription — it should be a real conversation. My practice blends medication management with meaningful therapeutic support, so you receive the time and attention you deserve. I am currently accepting new telehealth clients on Fridays, evenings, and weekends.
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.
I am a board -certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping individuals achieve mental wellness through personalized, evidence-based care. I earned my Masters of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry and have several years of experience working with diverse populations in both in person and tele-psychiatry settings. My clinical focus includes mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related conditions and life traditions. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard and empowered.
Experience working with youth and young adults who struggle with anxiety, school-refusal, emotional regulation and adjustment, Autism, gender dysphoria, social anxiety, trauma, and ODD. Has also worked with adults in various settings, with a variety of concerns and feels a special connection with the geriatric population. Believes patience and understanding is key to developing a positive therapeutic relationship.
Nice to meet you all. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to grow as a clinician while supporting others. The first half of my career I spent working with adolescents in schools and in their homes as a therapist. I gained a deep appreciation for their resilience, insight and growth. I currently work with adults who have both mental and physical challenges providing compassionate, person-centered care.
I've spent ten years in mental health — nine of them in the intersection of addiction and trauma — and what I've learned is that clinical tools only work when they're explained in ways people can actually use outside the therapy room.
My approach is energetic and practical: I break things down in plain language, connect them to real-life situations, and help clients build skills they can apply immediately. I work with adults on anxiety, PTSD, trauma, substance use, eating disorders, OCD, BPD, infertility, family stress, and relationship challenges.
As a Native American therapist, I bring cultural awareness and lived understanding to my work — especially for clients navigating identity, systemic barriers, and experiences that don't always fit standard clinical frameworks.

My specialties include adoption issues, LGBTQ issues and women's issues. I also specialize in depression, anxiety, elderly issues, disability, and stress reduction.
When life feels heavy, it's easy to feel disconnected from yourself, your relationships, or the direction you want your life to take. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, grief, or major life transitions—and unsure of how to move forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health 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.
