Kristen Mulheren Levitt, LCSW, PMH-C

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than twenty-two years working with individuals, couples and groups, I have extensive experience in the field of emotional wellness. My specialization is infertility, third party reproduction, perinatal mental health, women’s issues and couples. I believe all of these are unique and require specific training, skills and treatment.

I have utilized my clinical skills in many settings including hospitals, clinics, agencies, universities and schools. I work collaboratively with fertility clinics, OB/Gyn’s, midwives, doulas and alternative therapy practitioners in New Jersey to provide consultations, assessments, counseling and therapy services to clients.
