Charis Chase
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life moves fast, and between career demands, family commitments, and an endless to-do list, finding the time to drive across town for therapy can feel nearly impossible- but putting your mental health on the back burner shouldn't be the price you pay for a full life.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with individuals and couples who feel stuck in cycles of disconnection, conflict or emotional distance and are unsure how to repair the bond they once had. Many of the individuals and couples I work with, including LGBTQ+ partners, are navigating betrayal, trauma, attachment injuries, or long standing relational patterns that feel overwhelming or exhausting. I also support individuals whose relationship distress is impacting their mental health, sense of self, or ability to feel secure and connected. My clients are often seeking a deeper sense of emotional safety and connection, and are ready to do the work it takes to heal.
I am an experienced couples therapist who has spent several years working almost exclusively with couples, including LGBTQ+ couples and individuals. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), an evidence-based approach that helps partners understand their attachment needs, identify and break negative cycles, and rebuild emotional connection.
Reaching out for couples or individual therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when things feel tense or uncertain. You don’t have to have all the answers before starting. If you are motivated to better understand your relationship patterns and willing to do the work, therapy can be a powerful place to slow down, reconnect, and create meaningful change together.

Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
I provide therapy for gay men and hold licenses in New Jersey, New York, and Utah. Many gay men worry that a therapist might not fully understand their experiences or that they’ll have to hide parts of themselves in session. I once shared those same concerns, and they’re what inspired me to become a therapist who offers affirming, authentic care. Together, we’ll create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can find clarity, growth, and the confidence to live more fully.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained at Columbia University, with additional certification as a sex therapist through AASECT and advanced relationship training from The Couples Institute. Over the past two decades, I’ve supported gay men in a variety of settings—including the NYC LGBT Community Center and Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC).

Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life doesn't slow down just because you're struggling - and sometimes getting into an office isn't realistic. Online therapy offers the same focused, results-driven work as in-person sessions, with the flexibility to fit your schedule and your life.
I offer telehealth services to individuals in New Jersey, Florida, and South Carolina, working with men navigating anxiety, depression, substance misuse, performance pressure, and major life transitions. Whether you're managing a demanding career, working through a difficult season, or simply tired of feeling stuck, online therapy can be a practical and effective way to get started.
Sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. Our work is the same - direct, collaborative, and focused on real change. The only difference is where you log in from.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
My online therapy sessions are structures to be quite similar to in person counseling. Most clients I see remotely report that they have benefited as well as they would have in person. In addition, I have utilized Zoom and related media before COVID as I have taught psychology classes and continuing education courses online for many years.

Beth T. Hastings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MAC, LPC
I have been successfully offering online therapy since 2020, and many clients have found it preferable to in-office sessions. There is no commuting, traffic, or waiting rooms. There is flexible scheduling for busy professionals and parents. Online counseling provides greater comfort and privacy in your own space. You have access to consistent care, even during travel, bad weather or illness. Research shows that telehealth counseling is just as effective as in-person therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Many clients find they open up more easily from the comfort of home.

Dr. Christina Gerdes
Psychiatrist, MD
I am a Columbia University trained board-certified adult psychiatrist specializing in evidence-based psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and culturally responsive mental-health care with over 14 years of experience. I combine my medical expertise with a warm, collaborative therapeutic approach to help individuals navigate a range of life events including but not limited to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, bipolar disorder, OCD, and substance use problems. I offer medication management and/or psychotherapy, allowing patients to receive integrative care within a single treatment setting.
I am skilled in psychopharmacology and a range of psychotherapies including supportive therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. To begin treatment, we start by first completing a comprehensive evaluation to understand your concerns. Afterwards, we work together to develop a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs.
I believe healing begins when people feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to provide evidence-based, compassionate, comprehensive care that honors each person’s individual experience. I look forward to talking to you and understanding how we could work together.
14 Years Experience
Online in Jersey City, NJ
Jersey City is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the United States — home to large Indian, Filipino, Dominican, Chinese, and West African communities across neighborhoods that have transformed rapidly from industrial to gentrified — and multilingual and culturally informed therapists are a practical necessity rather than a specialty. The city's position directly across the Hudson from Lower Manhattan makes it home to a large financial and professional population navigating the intensity of New York-adjacent careers, and therapists working with burnout, perfectionism, and work-life balance serve a distinct and growing clientele. Jersey City Medical Center and the broader Hudson County healthcare system provide institutional mental health resources. The city's rapid gentrification has created displacement stress and community friction that therapists increasingly encounter in their clinical work.
