I am a licensed mental health counselor with a passion for helping couples, families, and individuals, especially teens and women, navigate emotional pain, trauma, and identity challenges with clarity and compassion. My work is rooted in a trauma-informed and holistic approach, recognizing the deep connection between the mind, body, and spirit in the healing process.
I hold a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and have experience working with adolescents and adults in both individual and group settings.

I also integrate evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-focused interventions, and practical coping strategies to help clients build emotional awareness, stability, and resilience.
In addition to clinical work, I am deeply passionate about helping individuals rediscover their sense of identity, purpose, and inner strength. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow at their own pace.
Hello and thank you for taking a moment to get to know me! I’m a dedicated therapist with extensive experience across the lifespan, working with clients as young as toddlers to older adults well into their 90s. I hold a master’s in clinical counseling and mental health and am advancing my training in a PhD program in Psychology. My clinical journey spans all levels of care from inpatient settings to outpatient therapy where I have supported individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of mental health and substance use challenges. I specialize in working with complex diagnoses and am deeply committed to addressing difficult issues rather than avoiding them. I bring a holistic approach as an individual, family, and couples’ therapist, creating a compassionate and empowering space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I have worked extensively with mental health, trauma, relationship dynamics, and substance use, always striving to help clients build resilience, regain confidence, and reconnect with themselves and loved ones. My aim is to promote lasting change by helping clients challenge unhelpful patterns, strengthen emotional connections, and reclaim agency in their lives. I’m honored to walk alongside each person and family on their unique path toward healing and growth.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and hold an Associate License in Marriage, Couples and Family Therapy. My education and training have centered on a systems approach to relationships and family.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The ideal client is open, courageous, and dedicated to their personal growth. They engage in therapy with honesty, ready to explore and understand their inner world. Embracing change with a patience and self-compassion, they can recognize that healing is a journey. Life is too precious to spend in bad relationships, holding grudges, letting trauma control us, or feeling anxious and angry. Together, we can create a supportive and safe space to work towards a healthier, happier self.
My name is Mia Hollenbach and I received my Master's Degree from Columbia University. I am clinically licensed in both New York and New Jersey and have 8 years of professional experience. I would describe my therapeutic style as warm, affirming, non-judgmental & rooted in compassion.
I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment.
You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning! Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I'm here with you every step of the way.
Hi, I’m Jessica, a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Licensed Social Worker, and Certified Clinical Trauma professional, but more importantly a therapist who believes healing doesn’t have to be heavy all the time. I combine heart, humor, and evidence-based techniques to help you make real, lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and finding someone you feel comfortable talking to is incredibly important. I’m Antonette Ross, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.
I primarily work with adults who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, stuck, or simply trying to navigate changes in their lives and relationships. Sometimes you know exactly what is bothering you, and other times you may just know that you haven’t been feeling like yourself. Either way, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
My experience spans private practice, behavioral health care management, crisis intervention, and other clinical settings. More than anything, I believe in meeting people where they are and helping them recognize their strengths, find greater balance, and move toward a life that feels healthier and more fulfilling.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Newark
Finding couples therapists in Newark starts with naming what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach. You may want to look for a licensed marriage and family therapist, or a therapist trained in couples methods like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy.
Newark offers a range of local therapy options, while nearby commute patterns, transit access, and work schedules can shape what feels practical. For couples therapy, the right fit also needs to work for both partners. Consider appointment availability, virtual or in-person format, and whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation to discuss fit before booking. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they structure sessions, communicate with couples, and approach relationship concerns.
Couples therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket responsibility before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and may accept a range of insurance plans depending on your location and coverage. You can review estimated costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
