What is the root of our problems? Why do we have feelings? What is the importance of having feelings? We have feelings so we can connect with one another. Human beings are social beings who need support from the people in their lives.

My ideal candidate is struggling with intrusive thoughts and anxiety; they need both a safe space to share their thoughts and emotions, as well as guidance; their goals are to develop a healthier relationship with themself, as well as develop coping skills and tools to manage their mental health concerns better.

Therapy is a gift you give to yourself as you journey through and face many of life's transitions. Caring for yourself can be challenging, even when your relationships are healthy. So let's collaborate to create a safe and calming space to explore what matters to you most, even if you're unsure or still figuring it all out.

My name is Eddy, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I obtained my Master's degree from Hunter Silberman School of Social Work in 2018. Over the years, I have worked in various settings including hospitals, community-based organizations, and schools, providing mental health counseling. I am deeply passionate about mental health and firmly believe that everyone should have access to therapy.

I focus upon all things relational. We all occasionally find ourselves facing a transition/change, problem, concern, or conflict that we are unable to resolve; despite our determined attempts. I maintain that what we get "stuck-in" is living life and relational; no matter with whom or to what we are relating. If you desire, and are ready to learn how to get "un-stuck", I am prepared to help you create positive lasting changes in your life. I promise to provide you respectful, culturally sensitive, person centered, and solution focused counseling care. I look forward to hearing from you.

I specialize in therapy care for children, teens, young adults & families. Parents are included as part of the therapy process from start to finish. Individual clients are seen as well using a relational and humanistic lens. Issues you may want to focus on: building cooperation & fostering openness instead of hostility & defiance; growing self esteem & confidence instead of fearfulness, clinging & sadness; increasing tolerance, self control instead of tantrums & aggression. Our work will heal family patterns of discord, hurt & division & will help children along their journey of becoming a confident, well rounded individual.

Hello, my name is Janet. My mission is to support others on their journey to leading a healthy, rewarding life to their fullest potential. Life gets complicated at times, and everyone can benefit from working with a therapist at one point or another.

You may have landed here because you've found that your current way of operating in this world is no longer serving you and are seeking to change some of the patterns that have brought you to this moment. Or maybe you seek closure for past harms, losses or regrets, wishing to make sense of these experiences, and realize that there's no time like the present to get started. In my clinical practice, I work primarily with adolescents and adults struggling with a variety of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, grief, relationship problems and trauma-related disorders. I am also LGBTQ-affirming and sex positive.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression and life in general? You have been dealing with stress for so long and you feel like you need to talk to someone. If you are overwhelmed, lost and feeling down, I would like to talk to you about how therapy can benefit you. I use a person-centered, empowerment-focused approach. I believe everyone has strengths within oneself, given unconditional positive regard and judgment-free space. I strive to create a radically safe space in which clients feel seen. head and validated because the therapeutic relationship itself is a powerful therapeutic intervention.

Whether you are going through a life change, experiencing symptoms of anxiety or depression or just feeling you need a space to process your emotions without judgement, I am here to support you. I have experience working with clients who have a wide-range of mental health symptoms and life stressors. Through individualized and relationally-based practice, together we can explore whatever challenges you are facing and develop a plan to help make meaningful change in your life.

Within the safe space we create, we will collaborate to identify and explore your concerns, creating goals for the future, and finding your strength to achieve these goals. Whether it's trauma, anxiety, depression, relationships, or grief, I believe that integrating therapeutic modalities with a personable and tailored approach, can help us find what works best for you in your journey to heal and grow. As a mental health advocate, I greatly admire vulnerability in the face of stigma and value the opportunity to explore your needs. It is a privilege to be part of your healing process.

I believe therapy is most helpful in an atmosphere of acceptance and respect. In a safe and collaborative environment, we can work together toward your personal goals. I am passionate about helping my clients cope with life stressors, to get relief from painful emotional symptoms, and to feel understood. Beginning therapy is not easy. My approach to therapy begins with helping clients to define their goals and to empower them to move toward the most fulfilling life possible.

I believe that in order to change anything, we first need to understand and accept it. This is done through talking. I bring an empathetic, worldly, and multidisciplinary approach to help you gain a deeper understanding of who you are and what you want. We all repeat the same patterns through our lives that sometimes prevent us from happiness.Through therapy, we can start to observe those patterns, and then decide how we want to change them.

My therapy style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, with a little humor sprinkled in. I see therapy as a space where you should feel accepted, supported, and empowered to make changes. I use insight, strength-based approaches to help you gain a deeper understanding of your past and how it impacts your present relationships, both with yourself and others. Once we understand the origin of your problems, I can help you make more informed choices to create long-lasting solutions. Our work will help deepen your self-awareness, increase your resilience, improve your relationships, and enhance your overall fulfillment.

Life's complexities often give us transitions we may not be prepared for. My intent is to support and empower my clients as they learn how to support themselves. I hope to join you in gaining new clarity and perspective during times of change. I have worked with individuals who are chronically ill, older adults and their families for over a decade and have a particular appreciation for supporting those during the sacredness of end of life. Grief and loss is a complicated process, let me join you as we navigate living through loss together.

I believe past experiences can have a lasting impact on the present in ways that are sometimes hard to make sense of, such as negative relationship patterns, feeling stuck or overwhelmed, anger, shame, confusion, intimacy issues, concerns connected to gender identity and sexuality, or just doing things in life that aren’t working but you don’t understand why. My work helps people gain insight into how the past may be impacting the present, and foster the strength to express and stay true to their own needs and desires.

Seeking assistance during difficult times is no easy task and acknowledging that we need help is the first step. My training at the Yale Child Study Center provided me with an invaluable experience and a unique perspective on how to approach children, adolescents, families, and adults. I hope that by helping you find the strength within we can work together in facilitating a process of change.

It may feel overwhelming to reach out for help and to trust someone else with your thoughts and feelings, not to mention your past experiences and hopes and dreams for the future. I understand how challenging it can be to figure out who you are, where you want to go, and how to get there - and how difficult it is to start taking those initial steps toward self-discovery. I believe that the journey is more important than the destination since goals tend to be redefined through the learning that occurs in therapy.
