Claudia Rodriguez

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Florham Park, NJ


I am someone who was born and raised in a rural town in Colombia, migrated as a child, and has learned to adapt to new environments and cultures ever since. I have finally grown into my own!

Amarce means "self-love"; it's founded on the belief that healing requires us to go back to our roots, rediscover ourselves with openness and compassion, and learn to love all parts of ourselves.

Hurt does not discriminate, but healing is possible!

Happy patient looking away

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 Newark

Searching for therapists in Newark starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and training fit your needs. A bio may mention methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In Newark, your search may include therapists near downtown, the North Ward, the Ironbound, University Heights, and nearby Essex County communities. Location can matter if you prefer in-person care, especially when factoring in commute time, transit access, parking, or appointments near work or home. Virtual sessions can also make it easier to find a therapist whose schedule fits yours. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session format, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
