I’m Dr. Anna Urbaniak, a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Mindfully Balanced NJ, where I specialize in helping adults find calm, clarity, and confidence while overcoming OCD, PTSD, anxiety, and stress-related issues. With a compassionate, evidence-based approach, I integrate Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), mindfulness, and trauma-informed therapy to guide clients toward lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in understanding the “why” behind symptoms — not just treating them. Whether you’re struggling with intrusive thoughts, trauma, or constant self-doubt, therapy with me is about helping you regain control, reconnect with your values, and live more freely. I offer telehealth sessions in English and Polish, and work as an out-of-network provider to ensure personalized care without insurance restrictions. Let’s take the next mindful step together.

Treatment Approach

  • Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
  • Behavioral Therapy Uses learning techniques like reinforcement and practice to change unwanted behaviors. It is often applied to phobias, anxiety, and habits.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
  • Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) An evidence-based treatment for PTSD that teaches clients to reframe unhelpful thoughts about trauma. It helps reduce guilt, shame, and fear.
  • Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: Clients describe me as warm, grounding, and direct in the best way — someone who can both challenge and comfort. My goal isn’t only symptom relief but helping you understand the “why” behind your struggles and build lasting skills for life outside therapy. I integrate modern cognitive-behavioral treatments with mindfulness and acceptance-based approaches, empowering clients to shift from reacting to life to living intentionally and confidently. If you’ve struggled with intrusive thoughts, trauma memories, perfectionism, overthinking, or emotional burnout — know that you don’t have to face it alone. I provide tools, guidance, and a supportive space to help you reconnect with your values and move forward
