MEET JUDI
Experience matters.
So does connection
I’m Judi D’Agostino, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) with more than 30 years of experience in the mental health and substance abuse fields.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working in both inpatient and outpatient settings, providing individual and group counseling, program leadership, clinical supervision, and professional training.
For 25 years, I worked at Rutgers Behavioral Health, formerly UMDNJ. Today, I focus exclusively on providing therapy for adults through my private practice, Blue Heron Therapy, LLC, in Tinton Falls, New Jersey.
EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE
30+ Years of Clinical Experience
My professional experience has allowed me to work with individuals facing a wide range of mental health and addiction-related challenges.
Individual Counseling
Providing personalized therapy focused on your experiences, concerns, and goals.
Program Leadership
Experience in program development, clinical leadership, and behavioral health services.
Group Counseling
Helping individuals develop connection, insight, and practical strategies through shared experiences.
Professional Training

Clinical Supervision
Supporting the professional development of clinicians through supervision and guidance.
DUAL LICENSED
Licensed in Both Mental Health and Addiction — Why That Matters
Most people looking for help don't arrive with one tidy problem. The anxiety and the drinking are tangled together. The grief and the pills are the same story. In New Jersey those two things are usually treated by two different professionals in two different buildings, and you end up telling half your story to each of them.
Judi holds both licenses — Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor — and has for most of her career. It means you can bring the whole thing into one room. No referral, no starting over, no deciding which part of yourself is the "real" problem.
