Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
My name is Laura Hennessy. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor in New Jersey. Much of my work has been at a nonprofit community mental health center where I worked with adolescents and adults. I have experience working with individuals with mental health and substance use disorders. I use an approach focused on engagement, insight building and motivation. I believe that our feelings and experiences are valid and deserve to be expressed freely and without judgment.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For most common concerns – like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes – online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility. People can connect with their therapist in whichever format suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to access care from home.
All therapists offering online care are licensed professionals, and if someone decides another provider would be a better fit they can switch therapists at any time. This adaptability and the range of communication options help many people engage in therapy in a way that works for their life.
