Hi, I’m Lauren, and I’m so glad you found me!
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.
My practice is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I believe therapy is a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported—without judgment.
Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, or simply seeking personal growth, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs.
My approach integrates evidence-based modalities such as CBT, mindfulness, and solution- focused therapy, which will always be guided by your goals and values. Clients often describe me as warm, empowering, and down-to-earth. I strive to create a safe and affirming environment where healing feels possible and change feels achievable.
Outside the therapy room, you can find me running around the town, working out at the gym or at the beach (weather permitted). I'm a laidback, beach girl who loves to stay active. I bring that same sense of presence into my work with clients.
If you’re ready to begin—or just curious about what therapy might offer—I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
Do you overthink everything, struggle to express your emotions, or find yourself repeating the same frustrating patterns in your relationships or daily life? You know something isn't working, but you're not sure how to change it. Therapy is more than learning coping skills. It's an opportunity to better understand yourself, uncover what's keeping you stuck, and create meaningful, lasting change. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, life transitions, relationship challenges, and a general sense of feeling lost or disconnected.
Hello, I am Marianne, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience specializing in Trauma-Informed Therapy, offering a compassionate and validating space for clients to process difficult experiences and build a stronger sense of self. I utilize an integrative approach, incorporating techniques from various therapeutic modalities to best meet each individual's needs. Therapeutic techniques include Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness practices to help clients build resilience and achieve their goals.
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, lonely, or uncertain? You don't have to face life's challenges on your own. I provide a supportive, compassionate space where we can work together to help you better understand your experiences, develop effective coping strategies, and move toward greater balance and well-being.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, work-related stress, identity exploration, health challenges, family conflict, or relationship concerns, I offer an empathetic, inclusive approach tailored to your unique needs. Together, we'll address challenges in your relationships—with partners, spouses, family members, friends, or colleagues—as well as the demands of caregiving for children, loved ones, or aging parents.
I welcome individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds, including clients of all genders, ethnicities, races, and LGBTQ+ identities.
All therapy sessions are offered virtually, providing convenient, confidential care from the comfort of your own home.
You deserve a place where you feel heard, understood, and supported. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
I graduated from Temple University with a BA of Social Work providing case management empowering parents to advocate for their child's medical , educational, and community needs. Then I graduated with a Masters of Social Work from Stockton University while growing my experiences as a case manager for a children's partial care program. Gaining further experience I provided individual and family therapy to children impacted by trauma. More recently I have expanded my scope of practice providing individual therapy to adults through an out patient setting.
Hello and welcome, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over ten years of experience in outpatient mental health. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and work toward growth and healing.
I believe that each person is the driver of their own life, and my role is to offer guidance, perspective, and a safe, compassionate space along the way. My approach is collaborative, empathetic, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when we feel truly understood and supported.
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, infertility, trauma, and those going through major life transitions. Together, we’ll explore your unique experiences and build tools to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all — it’s about finding what works best for you. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to take steps toward the life you want.

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 New Jersey
Searching for therapists in New Jersey starts with finding the right fit for your needs, location, and schedule. Across the state, therapy options can vary between urban, suburban, and rural areas, so it helps to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match what you want support with. That may include anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. You can also look for training in approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Your search may look different in Newark, Jersey City, Trenton, South Jersey, or a smaller New Jersey community. Some people prefer an in-person therapist close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions for more scheduling options. Beyond specialty, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist profiles can help you understand their style, areas of focus, and what a first session may include before you book.
The cost of therapy in New Jersey can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare virtual or in-person options in one place. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific plan and location. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
