CJ DeMarco (she/her)
MA, LPC, NCC
Certified EMDR Therapist | Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist
Finding the right therapist is about more than credentials or training. It’s also about finding someone you feel comfortable talking to, someone who listens, understands, and feels right for you.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and personalized. I want you to feel comfortable showing up as you are. There’s room for the hard stuff here, but there’s also room for humor, curiosity, and the parts of life that bring you joy.
My role as a therapist is the latest chapter in a career that has always centered around supporting people. While raising my children, I taught childbirth education and supported laboring and breastfeeding mothers, worked in the medical and wellness fields, and later became an elementary school teacher. Eventually, I earned my master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and began the work that ultimately led me to private practice.
Those experiences have shaped the way I work as a therapist. I take an integrative approach, drawing from EMDR, Parts Work, including IFS and DNMS, body-based approaches, psychoeducation, mindfulness, traditional talk therapy, and other tools depending on your needs. I don’t believe there is one right way to do therapy, so we’ll work together to find what makes sense for you.
I provide in-person therapy in New Jersey and virtual therapy in New Jersey, Connecticut, Colorado, and Florida.
