Hi, I'm Ade, an Advanced Practice Nurse specializing in Psychiatry and Mental Health, with years of experience.

I use various approaches, including therapies, medications, and advocacy/referrals, based on patients' presenting conditions and clinical indications. My master's degree in health/psychiatric social work is an added advantage to deliver the holistic care you desire. Am currently accepting new patients. You are just one click away from getting your desired mental health restored. You can schedule an appointment today.
My ideal client is someone wrestling with feelings of shame, guilt, and a lack of authenticity. They may be navigating societal pressures or personal challenges that keep them from embracing who they are fully. Often, they feel held back by the weight of living up to others' expectations and yearn for a life where they can be unapologetically themselves. They want a space to explore and validate their lived experiences, uncover their genuine self, and build a life that feels both radically authentic and fulfilling.
I am a dedicated outpatient therapist with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Kean University. My clinical experience includes working in Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) settings, where I have supported both teens and adults with a wide range of mental health diagnoses. My primary passion lies in trauma work, and I approach therapy from a trauma-informed perspective that emphasizes safety, empowerment, and individualized care.

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 a Therapist in Matawan
Searching for therapists in Matawan starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and can help you understand what sessions may feel like.
Matawan is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person options may vary across Matawan, Aberdeen, Keyport, Old Bridge, and the broader Monmouth County area. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping care tied to a therapist licensed in New Jersey. When narrowing your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, has appointment times that fit your schedule, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, experience, and session structure.
Therapy in Matawan can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments. You can browse therapists in Matawan, compare profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
