Maybe you're moving through a difficult transition, healing from something painful, or simply feeling disconnected from who you are-Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to navigate this season alone. Welcome! My name is Meghan, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Throughout the last 10 years, I have adapted my approach as person-centered and strengths-based, grounded in the belief that every person carries an inner light—even through the darkest phases of life. My mission is to create a safe, compassionate, and creative space where individuals can reconnect with themselves, navigate life’s transitions, and cultivate meaningful change. Throughout my clinical career, I have worked across a variety of mental health and substance use settings including partial care, outpatient and intensive outpatient programs, methadone clinics, detox, and residential treatment. I have supported individuals experiencing a range of concerns, including personality disorders, addiction and substance use, depression, anxiety, and ADHD. I believe healing is a journey we don’t have to navigate alone- one that is both collective and uniquely our own, with space to honor every phase, find our rhythm and reconnect with the light within.

Dr. Carly Mayer

Dr. Carly Mayer

Psychologist

Virtual • Morristown, NJ


I am a licensed psychologist with extensive experience providing individual, couples, and group therapy to adults experiencing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, stress, chronic mental health concerns, and major life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive environment where you can better understand what is getting in the way, develop practical strategies for change, and build greater resilience and emotional well-being.

I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Louisiana Tech University and have trained and worked in a variety of clinical settings, including university counseling centers, inpatient and outpatient mental health programs, skilled nursing facilities, and community behavioral health agencies. My clinical experience includes diagnostic assessment, crisis intervention, individual and family psychotherapy, couples counseling, and working with adults managing chronic and complex mental health conditions. Throughout my career, I have also held clinical leadership positions, including serving as a Clinical Director of Services and Training and as a Regional Director within behavioral health organizations. In these roles, I have overseen clinical quality, supervised and trained clinicians, developed professional training programs, and worked closely with multidisciplinary treatment teams. These experiences have given me a broad perspective on mental health and strengthened my ability to understand each client within the larger context of their relationships, experiences, environment, and overall well-being.

Melissa Albano

Therapist

Virtual • Morristown, NJ


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist with extensive experience providing compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals and couples, as well as adolescents and families. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, substance use concerns, and other emotional and behavioral challenges. I also provide sex therapy and have extensive experience working with members of the LGBTQ+ community. Whether you are struggling individually or working through challenges in a relationship, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly, better understand what is happening, and begin making meaningful changes.

I earned my Master of Social Work from New York University and have a diverse clinical background that extends beyond traditional outpatient therapy. Before focusing on psychotherapy, I spent many years working as a medical social worker and care coordinator in hospital and community health settings. During that time, I supported individuals and families navigating medical and behavioral health concerns, chronic illness, substance use, domestic violence, psychiatric crises, and other difficult life circumstances.

These experiences have shaped the way I practice today. I understand that emotional well-being is often connected to relationships, physical health, family dynamics, work, identity, sexuality, and the practical pressures of everyday life. Rather than looking at a concern in isolation, I try to understand the larger context of what you are experiencing and how the different parts of your life may be affecting one another.

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 Metuchen

Searching for therapists in Metuchen starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to address. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, trauma, or life changes. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or an integrated approach to therapy. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses integrative therapies, works with specific populations, or focuses on the concerns you want support with.

In a smaller city like Metuchen, local in-person options may be more limited, so virtual therapy can expand the number of therapists available to you in New Jersey. Some people prefer meeting in an office close to home, work, or transit, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what sessions may be like.

Therapy in Metuchen can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before booking. You can browse therapists, review detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
