“Iulian was very helpful and made it really easy to open up to him. He was extremely timely, and was great at listening to issues without sounding judgmental. He got me to think of things from a different perspective, and also offered tips and personal anecdotes that I can use going forward.”

“Iulian has been an amazing family therapist for us. He listens very well and ensures that each person has their time to listen and communicate their thoughts to everyone else. He has definitely helped us improve our family dynamics.
Iulian is also great at bringing new concepts and ideas to the discussion that help us see things in a different light. He also brings his own perspective and situation to the discussion, when it is relevant. This can also be very helpful.
I would definitely recommend Iulian as an individual, couples or family therapist. He has helped us immensely.”

Getting to know Iulian Ungureanu
"Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change!" My treatment philosophy stems from the belief that clients are capable stewards of their lives. I believe successful counseling requires a harmonious partnership between patient and clinician and an environment in which clients can express themselves freely and with a sense of agency. I also specialize in couples counseling, conflict resolution strategies, problem solving, identifying communication patterns, addressing underlying issues, and have the ability to remain neutral between partners.
I aim to meet my clients where they are, approaching each with humility, compassion, and empathy. I focus on an interpersonal and relational perspective that emphasizes areas of strength and areas of growth, allowing my clients to shape their own personal narrative and guiding them to work towards their personal goals.
I use evidence-based modalities to help you reframe the impact that relationships and intrapersonal dynamics have on your wellbeing, and to create a space to process and understand the innermost workings of your emotional life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I received my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from St. John's University and my Master's in Social Work degree from Hunter College School of Social Work. I am licensed in NJ and Massachusetts also!!
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I'm relational, patient, and inquisitive in my approach in trying to understand how your life experiences (positive AND negative) impact both interpersonal relationships and intrapersonal dynamics on your psychological well being and functioning.
With a focus on present moment awareness and mindfulness, I believe we can work together to overcome past or present challenges that inhibit you from reaching your goals. If you are depressed you are living in the past; If you are anxious you are living in the future; If you are at peace you are living in the present.

Don’t see your insurance?
It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more
Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $125 for 59 minutes
Ongoing session: $120-175 for 59 minutes
- Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
- Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

Julian is extremely talented, professional and compassionate person. This is my first time dealing with a male therapist, however, having Julian as my therapist has changed not only my views and opinions, but improved my overall approach to life and people around me. I am grateful to have worked with him .
November 13, 2024Morgan M.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian is a great listener who is always willing to help unpack any topic, thought, or experience. His use of personal anecdotes as well as proven tactics is extremely reassuring and provides accurate recaps of what you tell him. This has been my first experience speaking with a therapist and I can say with certainty that Iulian’s expertise and strategies create a comfortable and productive environment, which I recommend for anyone looking to begin their mental health journey.

Lulian has been such a pleasure to work with. He’s been an outstanding amount of support and guidance. Very knowledgeable in all areas of marital counseling and provides us effective ways to communicate better. He listens and knows how to translate our communication styles to each other. 10/10 and I highly recommend him to others.
November 2, 2024Daira S.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian is a terrific therapist who listens well, keeps you grounded, and offers great input. He has helped me tremendously by exploring who I am as a person and learning how to improve upon that. Highly recommend!

Julian has been exactly what I was looking for. I want someone who will listen and then give advice. Not someone who just says, "and how did that make you feel?"
I felt comfortable speaking my mind with no judgement.

I found Iulian while I was in the throes of a life crisis. I was going through several difficult life changes, most recently a failed relationship. For many years, I had struggled with failed relationships. I understood I was doing something wrong but couldn’t quite figure out what it was. In therapy, Iulian guided me through understanding myself and how I should be thinking about relationships. It’s been the first time in my life that I’ve had clarity on how to approach relationships. I’ve never felt this confident and prepared about relationships and have our therapy sessions to thank.

I’m so happy that I found Iulian when I did. I’ve struggled with depression for most of my adult life. Within a couple sessions with him he’s helped me unpack a lot of the things that were holding me down. He’s very flexible and always willing to make it work when it worked best for me! I was one of the biggest disbelievers in therapy before I met Iulian. Now I’m telling all of my friends and family that vent to me to invest in therapy. It’s been a real life changer for me! I’m super appreciative of him!
February 7, 2024Jonathan B.Verified patientVideo visit
We have nothing but the highest praise for Iulian Ungureanu. He is a perceptive, caring, intelligent therapist. He's warm and accessible, not cool and distant like some therapists. We particularly like that he is willing to suggest helpful techniques to actually deal with problems instead of just discussing the source of the problems. If five stars is the highest rating possible, we give him 10.
January 24, 2024Paulette W.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian instantly put me at ease during our session. He has a great skill in keeping a conversation on track and even seamlessly relates one topic to another that is so easy and comfortable to take constructively. He’s actively listening and recalls things discussed previously with ease and makes the conversation very effective. I’m very impressed and have already made big changes in my thought process and habits. I have done therapy a few times in the past with different people but have not met someone as skilled and as great to talk to as Iulian. I would recommend him to anyone I care about.
More than 1 year agoAntonio U.Verified patientVideo visit
Certainly! Here's a revised version of your therapist recommendation:
I've found in Iulian exactly what I was seeking in a therapist. Previously, I had a wonderful therapist, but my subsequent experiences left much to be desired. Those therapists often resorted to generic responses and sometimes, I felt unheard. In contrast, Iulian brings a direct, engaging approach without sugar-coating. This is crucial for me, as my aim is personal growth, not just an outlet for venting. Iulian goes beyond mere listening; he provides diverse strategies and perspectives to help achieve our common goals. While having a trustworthy listener is beneficial, my journey involves being challenged and delving deeper into issues. That's the invaluable experience Iulian offers, and I highly recommend him for anyone seeking meaningful, proactive therapy.
November 10, 2023Joe B.Verified patientVideo visit
I was amazingly surprised how my visit with Julian went, it was great! When I was looking for a therapist I was concerned that it was going to take me some time to find someone that would work well with me but I was very fortunate to find Julian. He is kind, caring and he listens and communicates. He doesn’t just sit there and stare at you while you talk he takes your situation and discusses it, analyzes it, possibly sees different sides and most importantly makes you realize how there is a solution to every problem!! I cannot emphasize enough what a wonderful therapist Julian is!!
More than 1 year agoJeanne G.Verified patientVideo visit
Iriver been attending Julian's sessions for about 3 months now. He is an excellent listener, good guy and offers good advice when needed. I enjoy his explanations about life situations when I just can't figure things out. Highly recommend.
October 6, 2023Paul P.Verified patientVideo visit
Julian provides patient care centered therapy. Individualized to my specific issues I am having at that time. Conversations are fluid and well thought out. I highly recommend using him as ur psychotherapist.
August 17, 2023Clare C.Verified patientVideo visit
Every once in a while a person will enter your life who will open your mind to new thoughts and ideas.About three months ago I met such a person.His name is Lulian Ungureanu. As my therapist he is helping me through a very difficult time in my life.I have seen many therapists over the years,but Lulian has a style quite different from what I am used to. What is most impressive to me is that finally I am not afraid to speak my mind for fear of being judged or criticized .I look forward to my sessions instead of dreading them.If you are looking for a therapist that is not run of the mill, give Lulian a try.
August 15, 2023Linda K.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian is an excellent, well trained HCP with a very good listening & communication skills and real world approach to providing healthcare with empathy and candor I would highly recommend his professional services to anyone looking for care.
More than 1 year agoSteven T.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian really helped my boyfriend and I work through an issue in our relationship, as well as provide tools for us to use in the future to ensure success. He is compassionate, knowledgeable, flexible and offered great insight. He immediately made us feel confortable and related his own life experiences in our sessions, which made the experience personable. I highly recommend Iulian for any relationship counseling you may need. Thank you, Iulian!
May 21, 2023Laura R.Verified patientVideo visit
Working with Iulian has been very helpful for us as a couple. He is an excellent listener who comes to each session with ideas for how to repair and strengthen our relationship. He remembers essential details from week to week. He gently and professionally suggests strategies while also encouraging us to find solutions together as a team. We have seen growth in our relationship through this work and appreciate Iulian's patience in the process.
May 10, 2023Lisa D.Verified patientVideo visit
My partner and I highly recommend Dr Ungureanu, our couples therapist. He was incredibly patient, empathetic and compassionate. His approach to our sessions has made us feel safe and supported throughout our journey. He provided us with invaluable tools and insights that have improved our communication and strengthened our relationship going forward. Thank you, Dr!
March 12, 2023Carol C.Verified patientVideo visit
If five stars are the most you can give someone for a review then my therapist and counselor Julian deserves all five of them. Finding this amazing person who has been a big part of my life for the last five months has gone above and beyond what I have experienced from other trials of counseling. I would have never thought I could feel as comfortable and free to express my deepest trauma's with a perfect stranger that ended up being more like a perfect friend..
Julian is professional, relatable,, sincere, unbiased, ethical, knowledgeable humanitarian. His input is truly appreciated because it is directly non-bias. I have gained so much peace self knowledge, self-awareness, self-worth, growth and deep healing that I could not have achieved by myself without a listening ear and heart that helped set my mind and spirit free. Recommending is not enough you would be blessed to have him as a counselor and therapist. Forever Greatful!
Thanks Julian...
January 11, 2023Rosemary C.Verified patientVideo visit
Julian has been our psychotherapist for us, and he has shown to be incredibly professional, helpful, and truly instrumental in any of our relationship successes we've achieved since the start of our sessions. He's always on time and patient, even if a session might go a little over. Highly recommend Julian!
More than 1 year agoNelly A.Verified patientVideo visit
Julian has a deep-rooted understanding of current literature, he is instinctually a good listener, he gives pointed feedback, and he is a relatable person much as he is a educated professional. He blends his professional foundation with human instinct to relate to patients, and does what's right as opposed to abiding by formal guidance. If additional time is needed, he will give it; if he needs to step in and speak to you in a human-to-human way, he will do so; and he has the instinct to know how and when to interject and mediate. He is an impressive person and professional.
December 28, 2022Mark F.Verified patientVideo visit
lulian is a wonderful counselor for couples therapy, his approach and demeanor is calming and welcoming .He offers wonderful insight and suggestions. We would absolutely recommend.
November 13, 2022Ashley P.Verified patientVideo visit
I have had a great experience working with Lulian C Ungureanu. CBT is great for helping you live in this moment which he has accomplished every session in our work together. Every time I have a session I come out feeling much better, clear headed, and more refreshed. I would recommend him to other potential patients. In mental health it sometimes takes a village, he is a great part of my village.

Very professional therapist. He not only listens, but also helps to explore aspects of life that can be difficult, but for the sake of improvement. Since starting sessions about four months ago I have seen significant improvements in my in my overall mental help. I would definitely recommend him if you’re seeking therapy.
More than 1 year agoCorey M.Verified patientVideo visit
I Love lulian. He is insightful and attentive. Very helpful and is able to shed light into some of my most difficult issues. I feel like i am making headway and feel encouraged to keep on improving as much as possible. Such a great session and i hope to continue to get more.
September 2, 2022Gabriel G.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian has been incredible. Probably my 4th try with a therapist the past year and finally I'm super happy. He's impressed me with his listening, perspective, quotes, personal stories, and homework. Each week I leave with real actions to try, and things to think about, which has been amazing. I feel like there's a real plan in place to help me in areas I've brought up, and we continue to revisit the plan and leverage it in our discussions. Big fan of how things are going!
August 30, 2022Kyle H.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian was extremely assertive and professional. From the moment we started interacting prior to my appointment all the way to the very end. Though we’ve only spoken once so far, he seems eager to dive in and help me through some of the challenges that he may have never heard before. Would highly recommend!
July 24, 2022Jonathan R.Verified patientVideo visit
Iulian is a very good psychologist, he is a clear communicator and has a relatable/open approach that I appreciate. One of the difficulties I have had with previous therapists that I have visited with is that we don't feel on the same page, Iulian makes me feel that I can communicate openly no matter how insane my ideas may sound. Iulian has also been great at making sure we stick to the items I brought up as foci point, that way I can focus a type of progression with my therapy that I have been searching for. His approach is human; and he doesn't let me forget that I am a human being.
July 12, 2022Leonardo D.Verified patientVideo visit
My visits with Iulian have been extremely helpful during a very difficult time of my life. I was very weary of seeing a therapist for years and I am very relieved to have been fortunate enough to come across him on zocdoc. I've been leaving each visit with something useful to help me create the kind of life I have been wanting for years. I'd definitely recommend seeking his services!
June 26, 2022Paul C.Verified patientVideo visit
Booking in with Julian has been the best decision I have made as I make progress every week and he works with new and recurring issues.
His Therapy is Tailored to you in a more modern, laid back, non judgmental approach, he can deal with different aspects of your issues and ties them in with previous sessions with a great understanding, amazing advice, and makes sense of it all. He can gently nudge you in the right direction with over coming the reason why you are seen him. If you need a therapist he’s your guy, I can’t recommend him enough!
