Dear Reader, my journey to practicing psychotherapy started over 20 years ago. I have over 15 years of experience practicing psychotherapy to individuals ages 3-100 (yes, my oldest client was 100 years old, imagine this person's experience and wisdom!). The sum of my experience has shaped me and provided me with an insight into human suffering. It has taught me great patience, compassion, empathy and understanding of our unique situations. I am looking forward to helping you overcome your difficulties in life and spreading your wings of emotional and inner freedom!

My name is Teresa Maguire, and I have been a psychotherapist (LCSW-R) for 25 years. I work primarily with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, gender identity concerns, relationship problems, and LGBTQ issues. I work mainly from a psychodynamic and relational model, utilizing Attachment-based, Eclectic, Psychodynamic, Person-Centered, and Trauma Focused therapies. I believe those therapeutic relationships are the most important vehicle for facilitating positive change and growth.

Do you feel like something is holding you back from living the life you want to live? You may know exactly what that something is, or you may have no idea why you are feeling what you are feeling; either way, you recognize it’s time for a change.  Whether the challenge is big or small, therapy can be the first step in getting control over your life again. I believe in providing my clients with a safe, non-judgemental space where we can work together to explore your thoughts and feelings and develop the coping skills necessary to help you overcome life challenges.

Hello and welcome to my profile. If you find yourself experiencing anxiety, work-related stress, familial conflict, depression or an overall feeling of emotional malaise, please know that I am here to support your travels out of the dark tunnel. Many people suffered social isolation during Covid. Some people continue to lack confidence of "getting back to living" because they aren't sure how to live without fear and uncertainty provoked by Covid. Please know that finding out who you are and what you are capable of will give you the strength to stand tall and feel confident and, most importantly, enjoy your life. Let's talk!

We all have the capacity to make positive changes in our lives, and it is during the time of crisis when the most change can occur. Everyday stressors, relationship conflicts, work and school challenges, loss of a loved one; these events can overwhelm and challenge us in many ways. Adjusting to new experiences is difficult. Depression, anxiety, self doubt and resentment can set in. Therapy helps develop and strenghten our ability to cope, to manage these feelings. It helps us uncover negative patterns and behaviors, but most important it helps bolster our existing strengths and potential for change.

I have a long track of success treating people of all ages, in the individual, couples, family, and groups modalities. Special experience working with PTSD, LGBTQ issues and trauma. I also have provided treatment for people in the Autism spectrum. I can provide services in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hebrew.

As a therapist, my objective is to assist you in liberating yourself from societal expectations and discovering your authentic self, enabling you to overcome any challenges you may be facing.

I firmly believe that you possess invaluable expertise regarding your own experiences, and I am here to support and collaborate with you in attaining your therapeutic objectives.

Working together, I can help you become more comfortable with life, get relief from anxiety, depression, moodiness, fears, phobias, relationship difficulties, addictions, personality problems. These things that are getting in YOUR way.

I AM CURRENTLY FULL & UNABLE TO TAKE ON NEW PATIENTS. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years experience practicing in Manhattan, and more recently in SI. I am interested in helping people manage everyday life stress (particularly in relationships and career), life changes and crisis in a relaxed, supportive environment. I utilize an interactive eclectic approach to psychotherapy tailored to the individual needs of the client. While taking into account the client's upbringing, history, and culture, the therapy is usually very present-oriented and focused on the current concerns and stressors the client is facing.

Has life gotten you down? Does it feel more difficult to handle your every day? Life is full of suffering but it is also full of overcoming. An old German saying states that a shared pain is half the pain. Together we will work on your suffering and ease your anguish.

"I think that the "fit" between therapist and patient is one of the most important determinants of whether therapy is effective.I work where you are addressing issues as they arise, helping you to develop insight and strength to make change happen. Call me or come in to meet me, to see if this will work for you. Let me help you find comfort & peace in the midst of turmoil of your daily life.

My extensive experience working with adolescents and adults of all ages has underscored to me the need to hear what the person believes has sent them to seek therapy, how they attempt to deal with it, and how it has impacted them and their lives. This is done by my using active listening skills, and paying attention to where the client is in their search for help.. By doing so, I am able to explore and further discuss what is identified as the presenting problem. I also inform the client that therapy is a place to discuss thoughts and feelings.
