Julie M Ryan
Counselor, MA, LMHC
Verified
Life can feel overwhelming at times. It’s especially hard when your child is the one that’s struggling. It’s painful for you to listen to them talk about how anxious, misunderstood, or alone they feel. Maybe they’re not talking to you at all, which makes you worry even more... There could be something else behind that heaviness in your chest. You may be facing stressful relationship dynamics, a health issue, a loss of some kind. You get through your days, trying to cross everything off the list, but aren’t finding much fulfillment or joy. You’re feeling unsettled, anxious or depressed.

As our client, you will acquire the skills needed in order to be mindful in all situations - to use your "wise" and not "emotional" mind. This approach will allow you to think more clearly, relax in stressful situations, stay in the moment, verbalize your needs, and address problems in a more focused and productive manner.

Aviva Abeshaus
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW, SAC
Verified
Our thoughts, feelings and behaviors create our experiences. As a psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience, I feel that therapy is a process of creating change in those repetitive and maladaptive patterns leading to a better, more satisfying life. Therapy allows a person to explore and develop skills to effectively cope with personal and growth's transitions and challenges. I work with each individual on finding the right balance of mind, body, spirit connection that gives a person the ability to better assess for personal goals and plan for a more satisfying future.

Counselor, MEd, RN, LMHC

The inherent nature of life is constant change. You set a goal, create a plan. Something happens that changes your plan. You could benefit from guidance to help promote your mental health wellness. Some methods to acquire balanced mental health are Self-awareness, Understanding, Acceptance and Courage. Women progress through "Natural Life Stages". Pregnancy Loss, Infertility, PTSD, Postpartum Depression, Relationship Discord, Menopause and Medical Issues. Children & Adolescent Behavioral Issues are also areas of interest to me. Children our born with a "blank slate". The world around them has the greatest influence on their development.

Stress, anxiety and trauma impact our minds and bodies in many different ways. I approach therapy with a mind-body and strength based perspective. Through education and understanding, we can develop healthy relationships with these necessary and important survival responses in a more functional way.

Recognizing the strengths, resources and body wisdom is so important to this process. Most importantly, I work with each client to develop a road map for their own healing.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW, MA
Verified
Most people could benefit from therapy. I've worked with an enormous range of people, from those looking to make subtle shifts and build insight to those struggling to manage profound, chronic difficulties. I think there's a potency in the therapeutic relationship that draws things to the surface and something penetrating and lasting that can come from taking on the hard things in life with another curious and compassionate person. My aim is to help you explore the impact your past and present have on your well-being and relationships and loosen the grip of old patterns and dynamics that feel rigid and/or chaotic.
