LGBT therapists in Newark, NJ

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a demonstrated history of working in the individual, family services, and addiction industries. Strong community and social services professional with a Master of Arts/Advanced Certification in Community Counseling from Montclair State University.

I’m Maria, a nurse practitioner and entrepreneur dedicated to making recovery accessible, compassionate, and effective. I founded May Lily MAT — Inculcate to provide personalized, telehealth-based Suboxone treatment for individuals and families across New Jersey.

Hi there!

My name is Leyla Bavi and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been practicing as a counselor for 5 years. I also do energy healing work like reiki and hypnotherapy. I really enjoy helping people who struggle from anxiety, depression, and women's health issues. I also work with clients who have eating disorders. I would love to meet you and talk to you soon.

I specialize in working with adults ages 18-40, focusing on religious trauma, life transitions, grief, self-esteem, relationships, and LGBTQIA+ issues. My work is rooted in psychodynamic therapy and incorporates CBT & DBT skills according to each client's needs.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of healing and growth and am dedicated to creating a collaborative and empathetic environment. I have been a licensed NJ therapist for 3 years, working with individuals of various ages, cultures, and points of view. I especially enjoy working with those in transitional periods of life - preteen and adolescents, young adults/college students, and adults navigating a new role or challenge for the first time.

I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Psychology from New York University and have experience working across a variety of settings, including outpatient counseling, community work, and crisis intervention.

My goal is to help my clients find a greater sense of purpose in life. My practice focuses on individual therapy for late teens, young adults, and middle-aged adults. If you are ready to set and achieve your personal goals, I am here to walk alongside you. I will provide you with a safe space to explore your thoughts, emotions and memories.

I will challenge the way you think, help you establish coping skills, teach you effective communication, and ultimately be the best version of yourself!
