Men's Issues Therapists in New Jersey

Abby (she/her) is an EMDR and ERP trained Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC). She believes therapy should be a collaborative space where you never have to mask or explain away your identity, striving to create a flexible, neuro-affirming environment that honors your full lived experience. Her practice supports LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, AAPI, Latinx, and neurodivergent individuals navigating complex challenges like trauma, OCD, anxiety, and systemic barriers. To do this, she draws from an eclectic mix of Psychodynamic, Adlerian, and Gestalt therapies alongside practical tools like EMDR, ERP, CBT, and ACT. With a background as a Registered Behavior Technician, Abby helps clients build concrete skills for managing immediate stressors while exploring the deeper patterns behind them. As a Geek Therapy certified clinician, she welcomes your passions into the room to make the work together more engaging—so when she is not seeing clients, you can usually find her lost in a pile of comics, scoring nat 20s in a D&D campaign, or listening to her favorite punk albums. Abby is dedicated to offering the support and tools you need to build a future that feels authentic to you.
