Are you struggling with anxiety and depression? Have you found that you are not able to get back to living as you had prior to the pandemic? Are family, work, and relationships causing you stress? Is your teen worried about school? Have they lost a sense of themself, their interests, and their friends over the past year?

Asking for help is a major strength and you deserve to feel safe, protected, and valid in your journey to clarity. I hope to offer guidance, a listening ear, and a supportive voice to help with whatever it is you're struggling with. I primarily work with teens and adults and when I work with teens, I aim to provide a safe place to explore all of those questions you're facing at this point in your life. Adolescent years are exciting and terrifying and you deserve to have a place you can process all of those feelings- free of judgment. When working with adults, I also aim to provide safety and reassurance when navigating life!

Internal Family Systems (IFS) - Level 2 Trained. You’ve tried a lot of things to help yourself - mindfulness, meditation, yoga, exercise and more. You are relieved for a time, until it all comes back, sometimes worse than before. On the outside, you pride yourself on being an intelligent person, a strong individual, a committed worker, a loyal friend. Perhaps you identify as a member of the LBGTQ+ community. Yet these days you find yourself spinning inside. You can’t shake these feelings of being out of control. Sometimes your behavior really is.

Feel that traditional therapy is not for you? Jonathan started YouTime Coaching 13 years ago with an ambitious core belief: if you provide compassionate support, positive modeling, and skillful accountability, personal growth and change are possible. We've had major success working with many young people, adults, and families regarding academic/work struggles, transitional challenges, focus/attention issues, communication, motivation, performance enhancement, and self-confidence.

People choose to enter psychotherapy for many different reasons. They might be feeling overwhelming sadness or worry. They might be experiencing conflict in their relationships, going through a challenging situation, or just feel stuck and unable to find their path towards a fulfilling life. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and comfortable space for you to explore the ways that you can get your life back on track. Together, we will set achievable goals and find strategies to meet your unique needs.

Accepting New Clients: Welcome, I’m glad you’re here! Initiating change may be one of the hardest and strongest steps you can take. I work with people facing an array of mental health concerns, and have a specialty in helping people heal from relational trauma. I find we are most often hurt in the context of relationships - a break-up, infidelity, emotional, physical or sexual abuse, being made to feel you are unloved. You may feel overwhelmingly anxious, disconnected or over-attached to loved-ones, or unable to trust. Maybe you begin isolating yourself from friendships or engaging in relationships you know aren’t healthy for you.

When painful things happen in our lives, we do our best to cope with it in the moment. That might mean we get really good at “just dealing with it,” and “toughing it out.” Maybe we get really good at “checking out,” or maybe we become super skilled at coming up with clever ways to altogether avoid triggering situations. At one point in time, these skills served you well. And maybe they don’t any longer. Often, underneath these patterns anxiety and depression flood every day, drowning out our resources and making life difficult to enjoy. But changing these patterns and finding new hope can seem like an impossible feat.

The phoenix demonstrates the power of the human spirit to recreate itself even from the most disastrous of situations, rising into a magnificent bird. Hello, My name is Mary Kuchta. I have over three decades experience working with children, families and adults. As your therapist I will assist you in reaching your full potential as your best authentic self.

Life often throws curveballs and learning new ways to respond to stress can be one of the most important things we can do. I enjoy building relationships and watching others develop the skills they need to successfully overcome their challenges in life. Therapeutic work can be difficult, but I've found that a good sense of humor can go a long way.

Everyday living is not without stressors. How we react to events or interact in relationships can be a struggle as well as puzzling. Why do we feel the way we do? Why do we continue to make the same mistakes over and over again? How can our perceptions be so different from others? How do early experiences impact our perceptions, feelings, and behaviors? I provide a safe, comforting environment for you to explore and reflect on your past and recent experiences, feelings, and relationships. My approach is to facilitate change based on your expressed needs and goals.

My particular areas of expertise include women’s and adolescent health, perinatal mental health, pregnancy and postpartum struggles, fertility issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, identity development and sexual orientation, relationship challenges, and adjustment to significant life changes.

I have been in the field of social work for 36 years, with 14 of those years in an inpatient psychiatric setting for adolescents with chronic mental health and trauma issues. I work with children, teens, adults, and families, and have an extensive practice with trauma related issues, including sexual trauma. An active participant in the therapeutic process, I provide insight, feedback, and thoughtful questions to assist individuals to recognize their strengths, utilize their coping skills, and reclaim their voice in order to lead a more fulfilled affirmative life.

In my practice I offer therapy for children, adolescents, and families, helping clients learn new ways to successfully cope with current stresses. I help young people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, divorce, bereavement, trauma and adjustment issues. My specialty areas include helping both children and adolescents cope with their concerns and develop a healthy sense of self.
