Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I work with clients experiencing high levels of stress, overwhelm, and burnout- often individuals who are managing demanding careers, family responsibilities, and internal pressure to keep everything together. Stress can build gradually over time or show up suddenly during periods of transition, leaving people feeling emotionally drained, anxious, irritable, or disconnected from themselves.
Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and outwardly capable, yet internally struggling with exhaustion, pressure, and difficulty slowing down. Stress can begin to affect sleep, relationships, concentration, and overall sense of wellbeing, making it harder to feel present or grounded in daily life.
In therapy, we work together to understand both the external demands and internal patterns that contribute to stress. This includes exploring perfectionism, people-pleasing, over-responsibility, and difficulty setting boundaries, as well as identifying what your mind and body need in order to feel more regulated and supported.
I integrate practical coping tools with deeper emotional insight, helping clients not only manage stress in the moment but also shift long-standing patterns that keep them stuck in cycles of overwhelm. My goal is to help you feel more balanced, resourced, and able to move through life with greater ease, clarity, and self-compassion.

Please contact me and I will send you a copy so you can better understand my approach.

Newark is one of the most economically and culturally complex cities in the northeastern United States — a majority Black and Latino city with deep roots in jazz, civil rights history, and a long experience of disinvestment — and its therapy community frequently addresses the intersection of systemic inequity, racial trauma, and the psychological effects of urban poverty. The city has a significant Portuguese and Brazilian community alongside long-established African American and Puerto Rican populations, and multilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve critical access roles in a city where language and cultural barriers remain significant. Rutgers New Jersey Medical School provides institutional training and resources, while University Hospital Newark anchors the city's clinical mental health infrastructure. Newark's proximity to New York City means some residents also access therapy across the Hudson, while a growing independent therapy community has developed within the city itself.
