Anxiety Therapists in Wyckoff, NJ

Virtual therapy available throughout New York and New Jersey

Our team

Welcome to Ola Wellness!

We provide virtual therapy for teens, adults, couples, and families throughout New Jersey and New York. Our practice specializes in supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, emotional overwhelm, attachment concerns, and life transitions.

We understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve been carrying difficult emotions, relationship stress, or overwhelming thoughts for a long time. Our goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are, without judgment or pressure to have everything figured out.

We incorporate evidence-based techniques while also recognizing that meaningful therapy is built through trust, authenticity, and feeling genuinely understood.

At Ola Wellness, we believe healing is not about becoming a completely different person. It’s about learning how to better understand yourself, develop healthier coping patterns, strengthen relationships, and move through life with more confidence and emotional balance.

Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, burnout, communication struggles, self-esteem challenges, or navigating a major life transition, we are here to support your growth at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you.

Katie (Dublirer) Perez, MSW, LCSW, SAC

About Katie:

Katie specializes in working with high-achieving teens and adults who look like they have everything together but are quietly overwhelmed, anxious, and stuck in their own heads. Her clients are driven, successful people who are tired of the racing thoughts, the second-guessing, and the constant pressure to perform. They come to her because they want to feel calmer, more confident in their decisions, and more in control of their own minds.

Katie has worked in the mental health field for over a decade, providing therapy to individuals, families, and couples across a wide range of settings and levels of care. She draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution-focused therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, structural family therapy, and positive psychology. Her style is warm, direct, and practical. She gives honest feedback, real tools you can use between sessions, and a clear sense of what you are working toward together.

Educational Background:

Katie completed her undergraduate education at Quinnipiac University and obtained a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in business. Katie acquired a master’s degree in social work at New York University. Katie continued her graduate studies and obtained her certification as a Student Assistance Coordinator.
