I am Michaela Trimble, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over two decades of clinical experience dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of modern stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, and persistent low mood. My practice is specifically designed for high-achievers who find that despite their professional success, they are struggling with persistent mental fog and physical depletion. I am fully certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and hold a specialized focus in CBT-I (Insomnia), offering a clinical, non-medication-based path to truly restorative sleep. Clinical Philosophy I believe that meaningful change happens when we bridge the gap between understanding a problem and actively solving it. My 20 years in the field have taught me that while "venting" provides temporary emotional relief, targeted cognitive restructuring provides a permanent cure. Our sessions are a collaborative, peer-like partnership where we work to dismantle the invisible barriers—such as "catastrophizing" and "what-if" thinking—that drain your daily energy. We don't just explore your past; we build a concrete toolkit for your future. Who I Best Serve The Chronic Non-Sleeper: If you’ve spent years dreading the night or relying on supplements to drift off, I help you reset your biological clock. We focus on breaking the "effort-sleep" cycle to make rest natural and automatic again. The Mental Strategist: I work with professionals who are excellent at solving everyone else’s problems but can’t seem to turn off their own internal critic. I provide a structured framework to stop the cycle of rumination and restore mental clarity. The Result-Oriented Client: My ideal client is someone ready for an evidence-based environment where measurable progress is the priority. If you are looking for a therapist who is as invested in your tangible growth as you are, we will be a great match.

You're not lazy. You're not weak. You're running on empty — and you've probably been doing it for longer than you'd like to admit. Anxiety has a way of making everything feel urgent and nothing feel manageable. Add unprocessed experiences to the mix, and the mind can become a place you'd rather not be. I work with adults who are ready to stop "surviving the days". Whether you're dealing with chronic stress, racing thoughts, or the weight of things you've never quite unpacked, therapy can offer more than just relief — it can offer real, lasting change. You've already taken the first step by being here. Schedule a consultation and let's figure out what's next, together.

Hello my name is Gabrielle and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from Rutgers University. I began my career working in a hospital based behavioral health center. This afforded me the opportunity to work with people who struggled with a broad range of concerns and obstacles. As my career moved to private practice I feel my previous role provided me with a wealth of experience. My therapeutic approach is rooted in the desire to help others improve their quality of life. This may encompass family stressors, change in life events and general challenges that can result in depression and/or anxiety. I utilize various techniques, including CBT, to identify barriers and develop coping techniques to work towards change and ultimately feel confident and empowered. Sometimes life can become difficult and stressful. It is okay to need help. Making the decision to begin therapy can feel overwhelming. However, it can also be the first step towards creating change in your life. I am committed to providing a compassionate and empathetic environment in which an individual can share their worries and concerns. Our session will be a place where you know you will be heard.

If you've tried therapy before and still feel stuck, it might not be you. It might be the approach. I specialize in OCD, anxiety disorders, and compulsive behaviors using ERP, CBT, and Habit Reversal Training. Not general talk therapy, not coping tips you've already googled. Targeted treatment for the specific patterns that feel impossible to control. I work with adults dealing with OCD and intrusive thoughts, panic disorder, agoraphobia, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, health anxiety, skin picking, hair pulling, hoarding, and depression that hasn't responded to traditional therapy. My approach is warm and direct. I'll be honest with you about what the process involves, what to expect, and whether I'm the right fit for what you're dealing with. If I'm not, I'll point you in the right direction. The people who do well with me are tired of being stuck and ready to try something different. If that sounds like you, reach out and we'll figure out together if we're a good match.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New Jersey rather than a city like Newark?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New Jersey. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New Jersey from Jersey City to Paterson! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New Jersey.

Will my therapist take Cigna?

Yes! If you use Cigna you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Cigna you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
