Whether you are in a place of uncertainty and desperation or hoping to reach your utmost potential, I congratulate you for making this step in taking control of your life and facing your challenges. Every individual, whether you are a parent, student, professional, athlete or performer, endures pain or confusion at some point in life. As a professional support to you, I feel privileged to assist you, without judgement, in reclaiming a life of peace and control that you so rightly deserve.
My specialty is "trauma", which is a broad term. Any experience that leaves you feeling unsafe, confused, insecure or unloved can be traumatic. I work with sexual abuse, violent and workplace trauma, natural disasters, infidelity and all the anxieties that may come with trying to cope with these issues.
I use an eclectic approach because no one modality fits every person and every situation. I use psychotherapy techniques, cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis and EMDR. I also continually attend conferences to stay current with the best and newest forms of treatments.
Hello and welcome!
I'm George Rosemond Griffith, a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey. I believe that investing in your mental health is one of the most empowering steps you can take, so congratulations on being here. I've been practicing for 14 years, most of that time in an adolescent PH setting. I specialize in areas like substance use, anger management, anxiety, depression, and sexual trauma. Above all, I create a warm, judgment-free space where you can feel heard and build on your strengths. I'd be honored to walk this path with you.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Central New Jersey. If you’re struggling, please know you don’t have to face it alone. With over 5years of experience, I’ve worked with adults navigating a wide
range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and other mental health challenges. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you feel understood, valued, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life Whether you’re looking for relief from overwhelming emotions, navigating a major life transition, or seeking clarity and balance, I’m here to guide and support you. Together,
we’ll uncover your strengths and create a path toward healing and hope.
I work with adults who are carrying more than they let on — people who show up for everyone else and aren't quite sure how to show up for themselves. My clients come to me with anxiety that runs in the background of their lives, grief that doesn't fit neatly into a timeline, relationships that feel harder than they should, and transitions that have left them questioning who they are now. I'm a Black therapist, and I bring that fully into the room. For clients seeking a culturally affirming space — someone who gets the weight of navigating identity, community expectations, and mental health at the same time — I want you to know you don't have to explain yourself here. I work exclusively with adults 18 and older via telehealth across New Jersey. I accept Aetna, Cigna, and Carelon, and I keep sessions to 60 minutes so we can go deep without rushing. Healing isn't linear, and I'm not going to pretend it is — but I'll be with you through all of it.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of healing and growth and am dedicated to creating a collaborative and empathetic environment. I have been a licensed NJ therapist for 3 years, working with individuals of various ages, cultures, and points of view. I especially enjoy working with those in transitional periods of life - preteen and adolescents, young adults/college students, and adults navigating a new role or challenge for the first time.
Are you a woman between the ages of 25 and 50 who often puts the needs and emotions of others before your own? Do feelings of guilt prevent you from prioritizing yourself, leaving you disconnected from your dreams and ambitions? You may also find yourself struggling to break free from unhealthy family dynamics, feeling trapped by cultural obligations, or experiencing anxiety and depression from the demands of caregiving and professional advancement. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone.
Hi, I’m Jilian a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 7 years of experience as a practicing clinician.
I offer telehealth psychotherapy for individuals of all ages who are navigating complex emotions, trauma, recovery, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a space that feels safe, compassionate, and empowering.
I specialize in supporting clients experiencing anxiety, other mood disorders, addiction & recovery, ADHD, trauma, and crisis-related issues. I support fellow caregivers and helping professionals who need space to process their own pain. I also incorporate elements of Gottman Method Couples Therapy for clients navigating relationship challenges.
My experience in crisis intervention and emergency psychiatric care has given me a deep respect for the resilience it takes to keep going, even when things feel impossible. I aim to create a space where you can be honest without fear of judgment and begin to rewrite the stories that have kept you stuck.
Outside of therapy I’m passionate about music, tarot, astrology, animals, spirituality, and connecting with nature as forms of self-reflection and grounding.
Finding a new therapist is hard. Finding that person with whom you can “click” is not an easy task but your effort to do so has the potential to be transformational for you.
I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been working with individuals and couples for almost ten years. I have helped people working though issues including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.
I believe that trust and honesty are the foundation to the helping relationship. I am also trainings in EMDR and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and strive to offer current evidence-based interventions to help my clients heal.
I most of all believe that having respect for my clients and their concerns is at the heart of creating trust. Having a place to feel heard, understood without judgement can be freeing in and of itself. So whether you have depression, childhood trauma or even combat related trauma I hope you will reach out for a consultation to see if we do “click”.
Welcome! I'm so glad you've taken this journey of self-discovery and reflection. I look forward to walking alongside you as you pursue personal growth leading to a stronger sense of self. I'm very passionate about advocating for diversity awareness, working within LGBTQ+ spaces, cultural sensitivity, and social justice issues.

Frequently asked questions


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.
