Hello! I am a dedicated professional with 25 years of experience helping children, teens, adults and families navigate life and relationship challenges. I bring a sense of humor and warmth to my work and believe in helping you achieve your goals.
I’m Rocio Jenkins, MSN, APN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing evidence-based, compassionate care to adults and adolescents across New Jersey.
I specialize in anxiety disorders, ADHD, depression, trauma-related conditions, and women’s mental health. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, burned out, or unsure whether medication is the right next step. My role is to help you gain clarity, emotional stability, and confidence in your treatment plan.
Seeking counseling therapy takes courage, willingness to invite change, and learning coping strategies. We will work together to navigate the challenges you have faced throughout life's journey. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, self-doubt, negative beliefs, or a sense of hopelessness, counseling therapy will provide a calm space to talk. My goal is to ensure you feel safe, supported, and empowered to manage whatever comes your way.
I have 31 years of nursing experience and specialize in the evaluation and treatment of postpartum mental health conditions, including postpartum depression. I also treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, weight management, PTSD and OCD. I started out in maternity and pediatrics as my nursing career and then went back to school for my masters, PMHNP certification and doctoral degree. I have also taught nursing students in undergraduate and graduate curriculums. I believe meaningful healing starts with being truly heard. I take a holistic, collaborative approach to care—working with you to understand the root causes of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your overall well-being, looking at medications and holistic measures such as diet and supplements in order to heal. Some of the most important nutrients essential for brain health include Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Vitamin D Vitamin A Folate and Protein. Treatment includes evidence-based medications, therapy, supplements, and nutrition management tailored to your unique needs, culture, goals, and comfort level. I believe in managing your gut health can manage your brain health and provide you to be a better healthier person inside out. Treatment plans are individualized, collaborative, and focused on restoring stability, functioning, and overall well-being.
Welcome!
Navigating the path to healing can feel daunting, especially for marginalized individuals facing systemic barriers. My mission is to honor and empower your strength and vulnerability as you seek support. Together, we'll create a safe space where you can share your story authentically, free from judgment or criticism. I integrate cultural, racial, and ethnic understanding into our sessions to ensure your unique experiences are respected and validated.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Westfield, NJ
Finding therapists in Westfield starts with identifying the kind of support that matches your needs. People often look for therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Westfield therapy options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience align with what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or another style that fits your preferences.
Westfield is a smaller city, so the number of in-person openings nearby may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across New Jersey while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can also show how each therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Westfield can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see an estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for Westfield counseling options by insurance, availability, specialty, and appointment format. You can compare therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you find someone who matches your needs and accepts your plan.
