About Maudjah
Maudjah Henriquez-Francis is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in New Jersey. She has 14 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and parenting challenges. She communicates in English and Haitian Creole and works with individuals on practical steps they can use day to day.
Maudjah focuses on giving clear tools and steady support. She uses straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness to help people change unhelpful habits and manage emotions.
Background and approach
She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-focused. Maudjah listens for what matters most to each person, then co-creates small, doable changes.
That can include coping skills for panic, routines for managing ADHD, or communication strategies for family strain. She often helps people work through identity and relationship concerns, including LGBT issues, body image, and codependency. Maudjah also addresses more specific stressors like fertility, adoption and foster care, fatherhood issues, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation.
Her style balances practical strategies with attention to emotional patterns. Clients can expect calm, direct guidance and exercises they can use between sessions. Maudjah aims to make therapy feel manageable and relevant to everyday life.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Maudjah uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering clear exercises and practical plans for everyday life. She also uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early and current relationships affect emotions and interaction patterns, which can guide changes in close relationships.Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how they like to learn new skills. From that conversation, they will shape a plan that may combine approaches and adjust as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, each with practical benefits. Video lets people use visual cues and longer sessions for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter setup is easier. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, and flexible scheduling to fit work or family commitments.
