Michelle Certosimo

Michelle Certosimo

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Wyckoff, NJ


As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than a decade of experience, I have been helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and work toward meaningful personal growth. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, supporting clients through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family difficulties.

My goal is to provide a comfortable, accepting space where clients can feel heard, gain insight, develop healthy coping skills, and move toward a greater sense of confidence and fulfillment. I bring warmth, empathy, authenticity, and definitely some humor to my work. I believe that therapy should feel both supportive and empowering.

Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our two daughters, and my crazy dog Kelly. I love reading, practicing hot yoga, hiking with my family.

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 Pennington

Searching for therapists in Pennington starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that fit your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Pennington is a smaller community, so the number of nearby in-person therapy offices may be more limited than in larger parts of New Jersey. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Pennington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more accessible. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person sessions when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
