Jody McCarthy
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MA, LCSW
Verified
Drawing on training in relational psychology,
trauma
therapies, griefwork, and mindfulness meditation, I focus on building a genuine relationship, supporting an inquiry that allows you to settle into who you really are.
For most of my clients depression or anxiety is impacting life in a negative way. Sometimes grief causes this disruption; sometimes a history of early life
trauma
continues to undermine a sense of well-being; sometimes low self-esteem or feelings of being alone are intensifying. One may be struggling and hasn't yet found a way to make sense of why--"something just feels wrong inside of me but others cannot see or understand it."

Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, MA, AMFT

I hold a safe,
trauma
informed,non-judgemental, inviting space where I will meet you where you are and we will work collaboratively to identify your strengths, values, goals and oppurtunities for growth.
As a fat, queer, neurodivergent disruptor of societal norms and systems, I hold a strength-based attachment focused framework that values and celebrates all genders, sexualities, bodies, ethnicities, cultures, abilities, family structures, religions, and socio-economic locations. I see these intersectionalities as a beautiful tapestry of personal empowerments which can become the foundation from which we work collectively to identify, address and dismantle systems of oppression. I believe humans shouldn’t be pathologized in a society designed to keep people sick and stuck.

Starting therapy can often bring up many feelings; and taking those first steps to find a good fit between you and your therapist is an important part of the process. We will work together to create a relationship that feels safe enough to address your concerns. In addition to my private psychotherapy practice I have provided
trauma
informed therapy to individuals and families in various community based, non-profit agencies, in addition to Clinical Supervision.
Ruth Fankushen: Virtual EMDR Therapy
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Verified
Do you want to feel better sooner? In intensive EMDR sessions, we do targeted pieces of work (usually 3-12 longer sessions of 90-minutes each) focusing on your specific goals and issues. These sessions are accelerated. Feeling safe is paramount, and compassion is central. I aim to help you build up your inner resources so that you can cope better and feel more supported, even after our work ends. EMDR, an evidence-based treatment, helps to resolve
trauma
, creative blocks, and grief, and it's effective for enhancing performance in the arts, presentation, and sports. EMDR can help you to understand and heal the roots of your pain.

I utilize evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals, couples, parents, executives, and young men achieve their potential. Using confidential, one-on-one telehealth sessions (phone or video), we’ll work together to understand the past and create a positive future with new tools and strategies.

Are they restless or have difficulty concentrating? These are just some of the problems I assist children, adolescents and their families in overcoming. Call me and we can talk further.

trauma
, and
PTSD

You’re noticing past traumas and experiences are interfering with your power to live the life you desire. You’re feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or notice the past ways of coping that once helped are no longer working. The triggers throughout the week are becoming unbearable and may even be bringing on uncomfortable physical symptoms like shortness of breath, muscle tension or pain. Your confidence, sense of self or connection in relationships isn’t where you want it to be. You’re ready for change and want to take back your power to overcome the challenges that have been impeding on your life.

Erica Joy McCarthy
Marriage & Family Therapist, MFT

A favorite quote of mine is, "The truth always happens." Too often, our present truth is filled with suffering and anxiety. But we can shape our truth, to better cope with disorder or overcome pain and
trauma
. The therapeutic process provides insight into behaviors and actions that allows for growth in self and relationships. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and adults of all backgrounds, helping clients and families to understand a range of behaviors and disorders. Working together, clients learn to recognize feelings, relate them to behaviors, and develop tools to recreate their own truth.

trauma
or "negative cycles" with loved ones or with your inner self. These cycles repeat endlessly and can be very distressing. I work extensively with shame and the inner critic to help you settle and open up more
Laili McGrew
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
Many of my clients struggle with relationships, life transitions, feelings of isolation, school demands, perfectionism, career decisions, parenting, body image, depression, anxiety, family issues,
trauma
, sexual orientation, and suicidal ideation.
I believe that each one of us has a genuine need to feel valued and connected. I also believe that connection is the foundation in our lives. We all need to find our purpose and find a place where we can belong to something bigger than ourselves. Sometimes our inability to connect with others can leave us feeling empty, hopeless or insecure. It can cause us to isolate, tolerate unhealthy relationships, abuse substances or lose our direction. When we learn to build healthy connections and find our purpose, we are more likely to experience hope and fulfillment. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 30+ years of experience.

trauma

Linda Hendricks
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT
Verified
Is something in your life not quite working the way you would like? Are you feeling stuck? It can often be helpful to talk though some of the issues we are struggling with in a therapeutic relationship that feels understanding, safe, and compassionate. Human beings aren't meant to "go it alone". In fact, feeling alone is inherently traumatizing itself. I have been licensed for over 20 years, working with individuals, couples, and families to heal their relationships, and to overcome
trauma
, depression, and addictions.
Emily Hartley
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I specialize in working with issues of
trauma
: easily identifiable traumas and more subtle traumas, such as the daily ins and outs of relationship hurts over time.
Therapy can be a powerful tool in deepening relationships, moving through pain, understanding the unknown, and tolerating discomfort. My therapeutic work is rooted in an awareness that people have the desire and the resources within to meet their potential. I feel that it's the empathic relationship that I develop with you that generates this kind of self directed change. By meeting you where you are, and helping you to see parts of yourself that may feel inaccessible, we will engage on a journey together that will move you forward in living your life the way that you want to.
