About

Meet Alex

Good Therapy NJ was built on a simple idea: mental health care should feel human, not clinical and distant. Alex Scott Carthens brings a grounded, direct approach to sessions — someone who listens closely, asks the harder questions when they matter, and works alongside clients rather than at them.

How I Can Help

Therapy that meets you where you are — whether you're working through something on your own, with a partner or family, or alongside others facing something similar.

🧑

Individual Therapy

One-on-one sessions focused on what's actually going on for you — stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationships, or simply needing space to think clearly with support.

🤝

Couples & Family

Support for partners and families working through communication breakdowns, conflict, or simply wanting to strengthen how you show up for each other.

🌱

Group Therapy

A guided space to connect with others navigating similar experiences — the kind of shared understanding that individual sessions alone can't always provide.

Insurance and payment options are being finalized — reach out and we'll walk through what's available to you right now.
