My name is Richelle Direny and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Qualified Supervisor whose been in practice for over 10yrs. I am committed to helping each individual learn how to cope with the stress of life, having too many responsibilities, anxiety, setting clear boundaries and coping with decline in functioning and other stressors in life. I seek to understand each person's desire to embark on their journey of healing and finding balance spiritually, mentally and emotionally. My objective and hope is to assist in identifying the current season of their life and how to work through unresolved trauma through psychotherapy

It is important that my clients have issues that I am qualified to treat. An ideal client would be willing to explore, understand, and work through their psychological and emotional challenges. Their needs consist of a nonjudgmental space where they feel seen, heard, and understood, allowing them to express themselves freely and practical tools and coping strategies to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or stress and to navigate challenging emotions or situations.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Like the weight of the world was on your shoulders and you couldn't balance it. Have you ever felt numb? Like nothing in the world could make you feel alive. Have you ever felt disconnected? Like no one understands who you are. Have you ever felt that the only way to cope was to turn to drugs or alcohol? Like there was no way out of the darkness. If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are like the other 43 million Americans who struggle with mental health concerns; with over half also struggling with substance abuse. You are not alone, there is help available; there is a better way.

Are you struggling? Is life meaningful? Are you seeking something more for yourself? As you reflect on those questions, consider therapy! The journey toward a new beginning can start today.

My ideal client may present with a variety of issues, but ultimately they are motivated to seek change and implement strategies discussed in therapy while in-between sessions. They strive to be open and vulnerable in sessions and are looking to be an active and collaborative part of their therapeutic journey. I believe that we are all experts on our own experience, and a client who is willing to provide feedback on what is working and what isn't can assist in helping them tailor the therapy experience to their individual needs.

I have a great deal of experience with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and addiction.

Do you feel in control of your mind or do certain thoughts seem to be taking control of you? Our mind is a powerful tool.

Teens, women, men, and couples can feel stuck, unfulfilled, and unsure about how to effect change. Many times, we look outside of ourselves for answers. My person-centered practice incorporates elements of ecotherapy, art therapy, play therapy, and yoga to create the space to gain the insight needed for change. I create a sense of safety and nonjudgement in a cozy environment, and I use this to guide clients to increase self-awareness, define goals, and establish practices to create change. I love to support clients who are either resistant to or tired of traditional counseling techniques.
