Depression Therapists in New Jersey

Welcome! I'm Nagavalli Thiruvalluvan, your dedicated Nurse Practitioner with a heart for providing compassionate and high-quality care to adults and seniors. With a rich background that spans across various healthcare settings since 2013, I bring a wealth of experience in skilled nursing, long-term care, rehab medicine, and outpatient primary care. Before stepping into the nurse practitioner role, I honed my skills for 14 years in hospital nursing across different specialties. I also care for my patients by providing weight loss management, offering preventative care through education and counseling, and following evidence-based guidelines. With a renewed emphasis on preventative care and weight loss management, patients can manage and control comorbidities as they lose weight and resolve other health conditions, with several medications being reduced or eliminated. I believe in seeing the world through my patients' eyes, advocating for your rights, and addressing your needs with understanding and respect. As a self-directed professional with a knack for time management and organization, my focus is always on enhancing your health outcomes. In 2020, I embraced the challenge of independently operating my own Primary Care Clinic, where I continue to apply my extensive knowledge and passion for patient care. My educational journey has been a fulfilling one, culminating in a Doctorate in Nursing Practice from Frontier Nursing University by the end of 2023. I hold an Adult Nurse Practitioner Certification (NP-C) and am licensed to practice in New Jersey. My commitment to staying current means I am certified in rehabilitation nursing (CRRN) and continuously update my skills to serve you better. When you visit me, you're not just another appointment – you're a unique individual with specific health needs. Together, we'll work towards achieving your best possible health. Thank you for considering me as your partner on this journey!

Greetings! I'm Dr. Joshua Werblin, a dedicated psychiatrist with a compassionate approach to care. My practice is a sanctuary for individuals of all ages seeking mental wellness. My journey began at The University of Chicago, where I delved into the fundamentals of society and its utopian ideals. I took a somewhat circuitous path from there, working in different fields for nearly a decade before starting to study for my medical degree (M.D.) at Tulane University School of Medicine. During those ten years, I worked variously as a biophysicist, wooden boatbuilder, IT support, astrophysics technical work, and an Auxiliary NYPD officer in Harlem. I completed a Pediatrics Internship at Tulane University, followed by a narrower focus in General Psychiatry Residency training, also at Tulane. I then received subspecialty fellowship training in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Seattle Children's Hospital/University of Washington, followed by the acquisition of Addiction Psychiatry sub-specialization some years later. My career has been diverse, including roles as an Inpatient Psychiatrist, Consult-Liaison Psychiatrist, and several Outpatient Psychiatry positions in New York, Florida, and Maryland. More than half of my career has been spent serving the most underserved and marginalized populations, such as youth and women rescued from the sex trade, runaway youth, homeless families, LGBTQIA++ populations, and undocumented immigrants. Since 2019, I've been proudly serving as 'The Feelings Doctor' in my solo virtual practice, offering psychiatric care for children, adolescents, adults, and those facing addiction challenges. My commitment to you is simple: to provide empathetic, individualized, evidence-based care that supports your unique journey toward mental health wellness, whether or not you choose to use medications along the way. Let's work together to navigate life's challenges and embrace the path to healing and fulfillment.
