Welcome

Forest and Trees Psychological Wellness was founded in 2025 by Dr. Patrick Connelly (Dr. Pat), who has been practicing psychology since 1995. He is joined by Dr. Jessica Krass (Dr. Jess), a psychologist with training in state-of-the-art psychological interventions.

Together, we offer a warm, thoughtful, and supportive space for children, adolescents, and adults. Our physical office is in Highland Park, New Jersey (adjacent to New Brunswick in central New Jersey) and we offer on-line services to all of New Jersey.

People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are seeking concrete tools and practical solutions to specific problems. Others want a compassionate presence as they navigate stress, identity, relationships, or major life transitions. Still others are ready to explore painful emotions, trauma, or long-standing patterns in a space that feels safe, respectful, and steady.

Wherever you are starting, we’ll meet you there.
