I work with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. Many of my clients are used to pushing through stress on their own, caring for others first, or feeling emotionally exhausted and stuck in unhealthy patterns. Together, we work to better understand what’s happening beneath the surface while building practical coping skills to make daily life feel more manageable. I offer virtual therapy throughout New Jersey and in-home sessions within 10 miles of the 08059 area. Currently accepting new clients.
Growth and change are key to positive well-being. My name is Dr. Ashley Bujalski and I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I specialize in treating an array of issues, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma, and have experience working with a variety of populations.
No single approach fits all clients; I tailor my approach to each client, making it relevant to the specific problem they are facing. The best way to understand your current issues is to examine how your past influences who you are today. I also emphasize understanding your emotions and past patterns to ensure a better understanding of yourself. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring you are comfortable within the therapy setting and process these hard feelings through a genuine relationship. I also ensure that you understand the process of our work together so you can feel informed and empowered.
Hi, I’m Michelle. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, Board-Certified Art Therapist, and Certified Yoga Teacher with 7 years of experience supporting adults navigating ADHD/ autism, health anxiety, OCD, and chronic illness (i.e., I'm most familiar with POTS/ Dysautonomia, ME/CFS, & migraines). I aim to cultivate a space that is neurodiversity affirming and chronic illness informed. I value creating a safe, inclusive space for clients to feel seen, supported, and empowered.
My work is grounded in the belief that healing begins when we feel safe enough to stop fighting ourselves — and from there, we can begin the journey of coming home to who we truly are. I integrate creative, somatic, and trauma-informed practices in the therapeutic process.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Approved Clinical Supervisor who has spent more than two decades working alongside teenagers and young adults in New Jersey school settings. I've seen firsthand what it looks like when anxiety builds quietly over time — the withdrawn kid who used to be outgoing, the high achiever whose grades are slipping because the pressure got too heavy, the teen who says "I'm fine" every single day but isn't. I built this practice to offer those individuals — and the adults who were once those kids — a space where something more than coping tips can actually happen. I work virtually throughout New Jersey, which means wherever you are in the state, we can work together.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I understand that seeking therapy can be a difficult step. I am committed to creating a warm and supportive space for you to begin your healing journey. I am trained in EMDR, a powerful therapy approach for working through traumatic experiences that can be effective for a range of mental health concerns. I received my Master's education at Rider University with additional trauma-focused training at Liberty University and EMDR Consulting.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New Jersey, with six years of experience in the mental health field. I view therapy as a space where your voice is valued, respected, and truly heard.
Hi, I'm Gwyn Ashmore, LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am trained and take pleasure in helping others deal with life experiences and symptoms that are holding you back from finding and experiencing your best self. I am a graduate of Rutgers University, with a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Masters in Clinical Social work. I have been in the Mental and Behavioral Health field for 20+ years, 17 in providing therapy and Supervision of therapists for diverse populations (children, adolescents, adults and seniors of all ages, races, nationalities, religions and sexual preferences).

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.
