My name is Gina Peccia, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of New Jersey. With over 15 years of experience, I have developed a sound and well-received reputation of being a very compassionate and effective therapist in my area. I am a graduate of Seton Hall University, and achieved high honors upon completion of my Master's degree in Counseling and my Bachelor's degree in Business Administration. After experience in a variety of community mental health settings, I started a private practice in 2011. I treat adolescents and adults with a variety of clinical issues (mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, etc.), as well as supporting and coaching clients through difficult life circumstances. I am a proponent of a 'person-centered' therapy approach, which means I will always meet the client where they are in their journey. It seems that life is so complicated these days, that there is no time for YOU. As a therapist with 15+ years of experience, I am here to help you identify those areas of your life that require change, and set reasonable goals. If you are suffering with clinical symptoms that are affecting your life, I can assist you in working to overcome them. I will always convey a sense of concern and trust essential to any therapeutic relationship. It is my priority to engage you in a calm and welcoming manner, so that you can finally just breathe and relax in order to attain your goals. I believe in the value of mindfulness in our daily lives. I will guide you slowly to focus on the present moment, rather than get stuck in the past or worry about a future that is unknown. This simple concept has a powerful effect on change, allowing a sense of well-being that will positively impact your life.

I work specifically with young adults (college age and 20-somethings) through various life changes and transitions, that include relationships and social issues, academic stress, and significant life changes like new jobs or location changes. Significant change is a normal part of young adulthood, but it can be a stressful and confusing time. I've also worked extensively with psychiatric issues such as phobias and OCD and have significant experience working with young people who were recently diagnosed with chronic illness or are experiencing health anxiety We will partner together each session to help you feel heard and supported, to explore practical solutions to make you feel more in control of your situation and to build cognitive skills that will increase your ability to feel calmer and to think more clearly. Sessions will be between 30-35 minutes. For more information about my practice please go to jeffreythoelen.com

Hi! My name is Crystal Pizarro and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Board-Certified National Certified Counselor (NCC) in NJ with 15 years of expertise. Using Christian-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (C-CBT), I love helping adults who are experiencing Anxiety, Adjustment + Transition Challenges and/or Stress. The duration of C-CBT varies among each client but typically consists of 3-5 months of weekly 45-minute sessions. In traditional Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the focus is on challenging + replacing unhelpful thoughts with more productive ones arising from the client, leading to healthier emotional & behavioral experiences. With Christian Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (C-CBT), unhelpful thoughts are replaced with truths arising from God's Word, leading to healthier emotional & behavioral experiences that align with God's Will for your life. If this approach resonates with you, I would love to speak with you further. Please feel free to message me and I would be happy to answer any questions for you :) Have a wonderful day! Warmly, Crystal V. Pizarro, MA, LPC, NCC Christian Cognitive Behavioral Counselor
