Hello my name is Paula Poblocki and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I received my MS from Rutgers University in Clinical Mental Health. I have been described by clients as being "authentic/genuine, down-to-earth, no-nonsence, and spirited " in sessions. I am passionate about helping clients identify and overcome the obstacles in their lives, so they can enhance their overall quality of life. I aim to provide solution-focused, affirming, and holistic therapy. Although I pride myself in being a well-rounded therapist, I do have a background in working with Women's Issues, College Students/ College Transitions, Substance Use Disorder Maintenance, and Mindfulness/Meditation. I am also an LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapist too!
My name is Diana, I am a Bilingual Licensed Clinical Social worker. I bring over 9 years of clinical experience supporting adolescents, adults, couples and families through anxiety, stress, and complex life challenges. I worked closely with diverse clients, helping reduce barriers to care and ensuring clients feel understood, respected, and supported.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor based in New Jersey, with experience beginning in 2021. I earned my Master of Social Work from Rutgers University where I built a strong foundation in working with adults navigating complex emotional and behavioral health challenges. Over the years, I've worked with people dealing with anxiety, depression, coping with aging, life transitions, bipolar disorder, substance use, trauma, LGBTQIA+ identity, and the weight that comes from carrying too much for too long. I work individually with adults and seniors, and I understand what it feels like to want change but not quite know where to start. My goal is to help you figure that out, one step at a time.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience. I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, maternal mental health, and other mental health conditions using evidence-based psychopharmacology tailored to each individual’s needs. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, providing thoughtful, personalized care—particularly for individuals who have not found success with previous medication trials.
I believe that every individual deserves to be heard, respected, and treated with compassion. I take the time to understand each person's unique experiences, concerns, and goals before developing a treatment plan. My approach is collaborative, and I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable discussing their mental health. Whether you are seeking care for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, or other mental health concerns, I am committed to helping you find the treatment approach that best fits your needs.
I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy. Please note, I do not provide couple or family therapy services on insurance as these forms of therapy are not recognized by insurances. If you'd like couple or family services, I provide out of network services and can also provide a sliding scale based on your income/ genuine financial need.
My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.
I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Newark
Searching for postpartum therapists in Newark starts with finding someone whose training matches the support you want. Postpartum care can include support for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for experience with perinatal mental health, postpartum concerns, or credentials such as perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C). A therapist’s bio can also show whether their approach, communication style, and listed specialties fit what you’re looking for.
In Newark, your search may include therapists with offices near downtown, University Heights, the Ironbound, or nearby Essex County communities. In-person sessions may work well if commute time, transit access, or a regular office setting fits your schedule. Virtual appointments can also make care more accessible for new parents managing infant care, physical recovery, feeding schedules, or changing availability. To narrow your options, compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session.
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. Headway helps you search for postpartum therapists who match your preferences, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can compare virtual and in-person options, choose a therapist who accepts your plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
