Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Sparta, NJ covered by Cigna

Hi, I’m Chrissy, and I’m a licensed professional counselor. If you’re struggling with OCD or anxiety, you may have spent a lot of time stuck in the “why,” wondering why these thoughts happen or why you feel this way. In our work together, we’ll shift the focus from the why to the how: how you can respond differently, break the cycle, and move forward.

I'm Elanna, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults navigating

anxiety, trauma, and the weight of everyday stress. My style is direct and warm: I bring

humor and genuine curiosity into sessions, and I draw on Acceptance and Commitment

Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, and strength-based approaches to help you

move from surviving to building a life that actually fits you. I practice in New Jersey and

see clients via telehealth. If any of this resonates, I'd love to connect.

Welcome! Great to meet you. I’m Maria Bennett, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP).

"Be the change you want to see in the world" quote by Ghandi stands out to me when I think about how I want to make an impact in other's lives. Life can be stressful and challenging at times and sometimes speaking to someone who is non judgmental in a safe space is a great outlet. I am a bilingual (english/spanish) therapist and have 10 plus years of experience working with children as young as 3 to older adults. I am determined to helping and supporting you in finding what will help you best in reaching you goals. Finding the right therapeutic relationship and connection is important in your treatment. I am interested in getting to know you better and helping in your personal growth.

When I was growing up, I always thought I wasn’t dealt a good hand in life. I had family issues that would top any reality tv show to date. I often felt like there was no one I could really open up to and share my inner thoughts and feelings with. I was wearing “masks” before the pandemic, always smiling when deep down I wanted to cry. I tried therapy a couple times and it just didn’t work for me. I felt like I wasn’t understood, that I was being judged. I decided to give it another shot and found my match, a therapist that looked like me, that could relate to me and my struggle. It felt genuine and not forced. That’s what made me want to get into the field of Social Work. Now, with 8 years of professional experience, I live out my purpose every day as a guide to help people unlock the tools of empowerment that they already possess. Whatever the issue, (whether it be getting through everyday life, coming to terms with past traumas, getting over a bad break-up, parenting/abandonment issues, lack of self-esteem, or a host of other problems), my eclectic approach to therapy will allow you to embark on a journey of self-reflection, self-love, and self-care. I look forward to helping you find your inner peace while getting closer to your winning hand in life.
