Therapy and psychiatry for Red Bank residents
Our Eatontown office is about 12 minutes south of downtown Red Bank on Route 35, with the Garden State Parkway as a faster alternative outside rush hour. The drive is short enough for a weekly session before or after work; telehealth across New Jersey is also available for therapy, psychiatry, and medication management if you'd rather skip the drive.
Therapist or psychiatrist — which do you need?
Most Red Bank patients arrive asking the same question: do I need talk therapy, medication, or both? The honest answer is that the first visit (a 60- to 90-minute evaluation) is where you and your clinician sort this out together. Therapy alone works well for many patients with mild-to-moderate anxiety, depression, or relational concerns. Therapy plus medication is the most common combination for moderate-to-severe symptoms and for conditions where research clearly supports the combo (major depression, OCD, bipolar disorder). Medication management without therapy is rare in our clinic — we usually recommend at least a few therapy sessions alongside any prescription.
If you're not sure which path to start with, leave it to our intake team. We ask three or four questions on the first call and match you with the right clinician.
Conditions we treat
We see the common adult and adolescent mental health conditions: anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. We also see teen and parent-facing pediatric conditions including teen anxiety, teen depression, and teen ADHD. For depression that hasn't responded to medication trials, TMS is an option in person at our Eatontown office.
Insurance accepted for Red Bank residents
We accept Medicaid (NJ FamilyCare) and all 5 NJ FamilyCare MCOs alongside Medicare, Tricare, and most major commercial plans. Red Bank's mix of high-income downtown professionals and Medicaid-eligible families means we're often verifying benefits across the full plan range — Aetna, Cigna, Horizon BCBS, UnitedHealthcare, Oxford, and Oscar are all in-network for commercial coverage; Horizon NJ Health and Aetna Better Health of NJ are the most common MCOs in this area. We verify your benefits within one business day and walk you through any copay or deductible before your first visit.
Bringing someone with you
Many first-visit patients bring a partner, parent, or close friend along. That's normal and welcome. Family or partner participation often helps the evaluation — they fill in details you might forget, and they sometimes notice patterns you don't. If you'd rather come alone, that's also fine. The first session is yours; what happens in it stays in it.
Most new patients are seen within 7 to 14 days. Sometimes sooner.
What’s specific to Red Bank
What's specific to Red Bank
Red Bank's population is small but dense and unusually mixed — high-income downtown professionals and restaurant-industry workers live in the same square mile. Mental health care needs follow that split: workplace stress and high-functioning anxiety in the professional segment, more access-driven concerns (insurance instability, after-work scheduling) in the service-industry segment.
We see meaningful numbers of patients connected to Riverview Medical Center (RWJBarnabas), Two River Theater, the downtown restaurant ecosystem, and the regional schools. Each of these brings its own benefits structure — and we re-verify whenever a plan changes.
For patients with high-deductible commercial plans (common in tech and finance work), we surface the actual out-of-pocket cost before your first visit. You won't get a surprise bill six months later. If you've been delaying care because you weren't sure what it would cost, our intake team can get you a written estimate within one business day of your first call.

Questions from Red Bank patients.
What is the difference between a therapist and a psychiatrist?
A therapist (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, PhD, PsyD) provides talk therapy — sessions where you work through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with evidence-based methods like CBT, DBT, or EMDR. Therapists do not prescribe medication. A psychiatrist (MD, DO) is a medical doctor who specializes in mental health — they evaluate, prescribe, and manage psychiatric medications. At Positive Reset Eatontown, both work together when needed.Do I need therapy, medication, or both?
It depends on the condition and your preferences. Mild-to-moderate anxiety and depression often respond well to therapy alone. Severe depression, bipolar disorder, severe OCD, and ADHD typically require medication, sometimes alone but more often combined with therapy. Treatment-resistant depression may benefit from TMS. We make this recommendation after the first 1–2 sessions, and you always have the final say.How long until I can be seen?
Most new patients are seen within 7–14 days of their first call. Telehealth visits often have shorter wait times than in-person. If you're in crisis, call us — we triage same-week appointments for active safety concerns where appropriate, or refer you to crisis resources if our outpatient setting isn't the right level of care.How do I book my first appointment?
Call (732) 724-1234, or use the booking form on this site. The first call takes 10–15 minutes — we verify insurance, ask about your concern, and match you with the right clinician. We confirm your first appointment by phone or email within 24 business hours.Can I bring someone with me to my first visit?
Yes. Many people bring a partner, family member, or friend to the first visit, especially for evaluations. The clinician will ask whether you want them in the session itself or in the waiting room — either is fine. For minors, a parent or guardian must be present to sign consent at the first visit. ---
