Brittany Ryan-Berzins
Psychologist, PhD
I’m Dr. Brittany Ryan-Berzins, a licensed clinical psychologist and Co-Founder of Birch Tree Psychology. For more than two decades, I have had the privilege of helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate periods of emotional difficulty, personal transition, and significant change. My work is grounded in the belief that therapy should offer both a compassionate place to feel understood and a thoughtful path toward meaningful, lasting change.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, and the challenges that accompany major life transitions. I have a particular interest in working with women and adolescent girls as they navigate the complexities of identity, relationships, motherhood, fertility, divorce, and other pivotal stages of life. I also work closely with parents who are seeking a deeper understanding of their child or adolescent and want thoughtful, effective support during challenging periods.
My approach is highly individualized and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and behavioral strategies, while also exploring the ways in which earlier experiences can shape our emotional lives, relationships, and patterns of responding. I believe that meaningful therapy requires looking beyond symptoms to understand the person as a whole—your history, strengths, relationships, values, and aspirations.
Many of the clients I work with are thoughtful, capable, and accustomed to managing a great deal on their own. Yet beneath that competence, they may be struggling with self-doubt, perfectionism, an unforgiving inner critic, or the feeling that something in their lives has become increasingly difficult to navigate. Therapy can provide the opportunity to step back, gain perspective, and develop a more compassionate and grounded understanding of yourself.
I bring warmth, curiosity, and clinical expertise to each therapeutic relationship. I strive to create an environment that feels comfortable and genuine while maintaining a clear focus on the goals that bring you to therapy. Together, we identify the patterns that may be holding you back, develop practical strategies for navigating the present, and work toward a greater sense of confidence, resilience, and emotional well-being.
My hope is that therapy becomes more than a place to manage what is difficult. It can be a space to know yourself more deeply, strengthen your relationships, and make intentional choices about the life you want to create. Wherever you are in that process, I would be honored to help you move forward.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I specialize in working with individuals (children, teens and adults) and couples, and I am incredibly passionate about the work I do and the people with whom I have the honor to work. My areas of expertise are anxiety / stress, relationship challenges, conflict resolution, intrusive negative thoughts and patterns, loss/grief and depression.
Most clients and couples choose to work with me because they are looking for nontraditional therapy that provides them with concrete skills to improve their everyday lives and/or address specific concerns. Holistic and integrative in my approach, I believe that there is no "one size fits all" in therapy. Therefore, I uniquely tailor therapy sessions to meet each client's needs and goals. With extensive experience and training in results oriented and solutions focused cognitive therapies, positive psychology, mindfulness, Buddhist Psychology, Gottman Method for Couples, meditation, and yoga, I offer creative approaches that result in meaningful change and growth.
Above all, I am committed to creating therapeutic relationships that are built on trust, respect, transparency, empathy, honesty, and equality, and I always counsel from a nonjudgmental place of understanding and compassion.
I am happy to offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see how I can best support you! Why wait tomorrow when you can start today? Please reach out to schedule your free consultation on my calendar: https://calendly.com/jenna-sackman/phone-consultation

Inspired Hope Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile.
"People can cry much easier than they can change." — James Baldwin
Life can be challenging, and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, family conflict, trauma, or major life transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what comes next. Taking the first step toward therapy is not always easy, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, educator, and mother of four with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, parenting support, adolescent issues, self-esteem, trauma, family relationships, and life transitions. I often joke that I speak fluent teen, but my true passion is helping people strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and develop the confidence needed to overcome life's challenges.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and practical tools while helping you uncover the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore concerns, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and develop the skills needed to thrive both now and in the future.
I provide in-person therapy in Montclair, New Jersey, as well as secure online therapy throughout New Jersey and Florida.
I offer a complimentary consultation and would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can work together.

Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Will I ever feel like myself again? It can feel as though a part of you has vanished, leaving behind an emptiness nothing seems to ease. Life feels muted; colors less vivid, joy just out of reach. Some days, you hardly recognize the person you’ve become. You want to move forward, yet every step feels heavy and uncertain. When you think about the future, it often appears distant and dark, leaving you wondering how life reached this point.
Therapy with me offers a safe, supportive space to untangle the layers of your emotions, thoughts, and experiences. I provide a compassionate environment where you can openly explore anxiety, depression, and the challenges weighing on you. Even if you feel trapped by your current circumstances, it is possible to find clarity, direction, and a sense of freedom through working with a professional.
Will happiness return? Yes. Counseling can help you reconnect with who you want to be and how you want to feel. This is your opportunity to make a change and step away from the life that has been holding you down. Take the step you’ve been postponing and reconnect with your confident, joyful self. I’m here to help when you’re ready. Reach out today to begin.
