Getting to know Monica Schiffman
Since I started practicing in 2004, I have worked with adults and adolescents, individually and in groups. With a Master's in Social Work from Kean University and over 20 years of experience, I have supported many people on their mental health journey to rediscover their strengths, renew their motivation, and learn new skills to live life as they want.
Seeking therapy can feel scary, and the first step can be challenging, but you're making the right choice by taking it. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, experiencing new transitions, or are a survivor of cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. I have worked with trauma survivors, supported parents through parenting challenges, and helped many find new ways to manage stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship struggles. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hang-ups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!
I accept insurance plans as well as private pay clients. I am licensed both in GA and NJ.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a therapist, my priority is to create a safe space that provides for trust, information to be shared and a client/patient relationship to grow. I believe that some thoughts need to be challenged and I will walk along with you as this happens. Creating space for positive mental health is a journey and I would be honored to be part of yours.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
