I have a background which includes many years of Post-Graduate education, knowledge and experience providing mental health care to those who need help dealing with a wide range of mental health issues or concerns. Whether you desire improved and better quality relationships, need help with feelings, with issues of daily life, or with reaching your goals, I can help you gain emotional health - the ability to love, work and play as you wish.


I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with over 15 years of Post-Graduate education and training in Modern Psychoanalysis at the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis, which allows me to listen and respond to your needs, through special understanding of unconscious processes that affect the human mind as a whole.


My specialty is in using Talk Therapy as a treatment for relieving mental and emotional distress. Whatever your diagnosis, difficulty, age, finances, or emotional needs, I help you with the process of talking to solve conflicts which block you from accomplishing what you want in life.

Dr. Helena Correia

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 10 mi away • Tinton Falls, NJ


I have 31 years of nursing experience and specialize in the evaluation and treatment of postpartum mental health conditions, including postpartum depression. I also treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, weight management, PTSD and OCD. I started out in maternity and pediatrics as my nursing career and then went back to school for my masters, PMHNP certification and doctoral degree. I have also taught nursing students in undergraduate and graduate curriculums. I believe meaningful healing starts with being truly heard. I take a holistic, collaborative approach to care—working with you to understand the root causes of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your overall well-being, looking at medications and holistic measures such as diet and supplements in order to heal. Some of the most important nutrients essential for brain health include Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Vitamin D Vitamin A Folate and Protein. Treatment includes evidence-based medications, therapy, supplements, and nutrition management tailored to your unique needs, culture, goals, and comfort level. I believe in managing your gut health can manage your brain health and provide you to be a better healthier person inside out. Treatment plans are individualized, collaborative, and focused on restoring stability, functioning, and overall well-being.

Nina Knight

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Woodbridge Township, NJ


I'm Nina Knight — an LCSW, Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S), EMDR-trained clinician, retired law enforcement officer, and U.S. military veteran. What makes my practice different is that I don't just study the experiences my clients bring through the door — I've lived many of them. I understand the weight of wearing a uniform. I understand trauma that doesn't show up on an X-ray. I understand what it means to hold yourself together for everyone else until you simply can't anymore.My practice, Living & Looking Within, serves individuals, couples, children, and families across New Jersey — in person in Woodbridge or via telehealth statewide. I work with people of all ages and backgrounds, with a particular passion for first responders, veterans, BIPOC communities, and anyone navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, or the emotional weight of doing a job most people could never do. I accept most major insurance plans including Aetna, Cigna, Horizon BCBS, Lyra, Optum, and UHC.
