Healing that honors who you are, where you come from, & everything you carry…
A space where your culture, your story, and your healing are all welcome.
Evidence-based counseling services where AAPI & PGM communities come to heal, reconnect, and be fully seen.
"Our community has always found ways to heal in silence. It's time we build something loud enough for everyone to find — a space PGM providers don't just survive this work, but are seen, supported, and sustained in it. There is a need that our community feels deeply — not just as clients, but as providers. I'm building this resource because belonging in this field shouldn't be an exception. It should be the foundation. I built what I needed and couldn't find — because no one in our community should have to search this hard just to feel like they belong in the rooms where healing happens."
-Jaemma
Meet the Founder and her Mission:
Allied Counseling Collective was founded by Jaemmavheb Javanes-Pisani, MA, LPC, on a simple but powerful belief: healing doesn't happen in isolation.
Jaemmavheb built the Collective to fill a real gap in the PGM (People of the Global Majority) communities who have long navigated mental health spaces that weren't built with them in mind. Here, your culture isn't a footnote. It's central to your care.
Every session, service, and collaboration is rooted in the conviction that lasting healing happens when people feel truly seen — by a counselor who understands their experience, and within a community that affirms who they are.
This is the heart of Allied Counseling Collective: culturally responsive care, meaningful connection, and the unwavering belief that no one should have to heal alone.
Our Services
We offer a range of counseling services designed to support individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges. Our approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to meet each client’s unique needs, goals, and experiences. Whether you’re navigating a specific concern or seeking personal growth, our counselors provide a safe, supportive space for meaningful change.
Individual Counseling
Individual counseling provides one-on-one support for concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, life transitions, self-esteem, and personal growth. Sessions focus on helping clients better understand themselves, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward lasting emotional well-being.
Couples & Relationship Counseling
Couples counseling helps partners improve communication, resolve conflict, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional connection. We work with couples at all stages—whether dating, married, or navigating separation—to foster healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
Family Counseling
Family counseling supports families in improving communication, addressing conflict, and strengthening relationships. Sessions may focus on parenting challenges, blended families, behavioral concerns, or major life changes affecting the family system.
Specialized & Evidence-Based Approaches
Our counselors are trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches, which may include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based strategies, and strengths-based counseling. Treatment plans are personalized to align with each client’s needs and preferences.
Our Collective:
Community care feels strongest when it looks, sounds, and lives like home.
Allied Counseling Collective brings together a diverse team of providers, creators, and advocates — primarily from PGM communities — united by a shared commitment to equity, cultural humility, and accessible, affirming care.
This collective is open to all. Whether you're a clinician, educator, healer, artist, or community worker across New Jersey, this is a space to connect, collaborate, and grow — without having to code-switch to belong.
We exist because representation in care starts with the providers delivering it. When providers feel seen, supported, and rooted in community — the people they serve feel it too.
Together, we are not just building a network—we are cultivating a movement rooted in belonging, representation, and shared purpose.
