Hello! I'm Erica (she/hers), a psychotherapist and art therapist dedicated to supporting individuals in the NY area. My therapeutic approach is characterized by warmth and compassion, aimed at assisting those in their early adult life in navigating the complexities of relationships with others and themselves. Throughout my career, I've worked in non-profit agencies, gaining valuable experience with diverse age groups and diagnoses. In my private practice, I specialize in helping clients address challenges related to anxiety, depression, relationships, and unexpected life transitions.

Imagine how you'd like to be in a year from now. Take a moment; I'll wait... Would you like to feel more alive, more energized, and at peace with yourself and those around you?

I am a multicultural, holistic, trauma-informed, LGBT+ affirmative therapist and a core believer in resiliency of human spirit. Though you may consider me as the professional/expert, you are the expert of your lived experiences. I strongly believe that the client has a right to both be a recipient as well as an influencer within the therapeutic relationship. My job as a therapist is to act as guide while you are empowered to tackle both inner and outer barriers. I aim to hold a space for those who may not have access to any other arenas to feel heard and understood.

My name is Heather Mauro, and I’m a licensed clinical social worker with twenty-five years of clinical experience. I enjoy working with adults as they move through various life stages. I focus on issues such as Adoption, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, and Parenting. I utilize Attachment-based, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Family Systems, Narrative, and Strength-Based Therapies. I believe strongly in the power of connection, connecting to your authentic self, establishing meaningful relationships, and igniting your passion.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of direct clinical experience. I specialize in working with culturally diverse young adults (aprx age 18-35) who are having difficulty regulating themselves and experiencing some level of emotional and/or behavioral distress, which sometimes leads to significant problems in school, at work, and/or in relationships with oneself and others. Often, this distress can be eased with increased self-awareness that supports your ability to regulate your internal experience so your emotions feel manageable, your thoughts are more comforting, and you have more control over your behavior.

Congratulations to you for taking this initial step forward into your wellness journey. Through compassion, empathy, and attention, I provide a safe space for you to flourish and to grow as you address and heal your wounded parts. By establishing a warm and welcoming space, my goal is to help you to reach tangible goals and to have meaningful transformation. Together, we will do the required work to improve relationship to oneself so you can show up as your true authentic self,

Welcome! I am a psychotherapist striving to deliver high-quality therapy that is holistic and tailored to you. My priority is providing a safe and comfortable therapeutic relationship. This foundation is the groundwork that allows my clients to take risks in therapy and discuss what is really getting in the way of the life they want to lead. Therapy with me means going beyond the surface of thoughts and behaviors to access underlying emotions that are often at the root of feeling stuck. As an attachment-based therapist, I help my clients explore their relationships and their emotional and behavioral patterns.

Whether you are in an acute state of crisis, are hoping to improve relational difficulties, or merely want a space where you can feel recognized and understood, a relationship with a trusted therapist can lead to more personal freedom, self-acceptance, and lasting change. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who has experience working with people from many diverse backgrounds and all age groups. I view therapy as a collaborative effort where my goal is to help you better understand yourself. I approach therapy with non-judgmental curiosity and look forward to learning more about you.

Imagine a space where you can be totally and completely yourself without fear of judgment. Healing is a creative and personal process which requires us to use many tools. Together, we can navigate the art studio to express conflicted emotions, practice mindfulness, reflect and create insight into your inner world. I provide an integrative approach to therapy that marries both art therapy and traditional psychotherapy. No experience using art materials is needed. Here we can traverse the challenges of daily life, promote positive change, increase self-esteem, destress and cultivate a creative outlet to process difficult experiences.

My goal is to support you in developing the insight, motivation, and skills needed to overcome personal obstacles and make positive life changes. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where we can explore your past, better understand your present, and develop specific skills to reach goals and improve your overall quality of life.

If you've been facing tough times, every day might seem like an uphill battle. Some days, it feels like you're drowning in old habits, which only adds to the struggle. You've tried avoiding, distracting, and denying, but somehow, you keep getting stuck in the same loop. But remember, change is within reach. Healing is possible. You have the power to break free from this cycle.

Do you struggle in family, romantic or work related relationships? Maybe you experience anxiety, sadness or anger and are struggling with significant life transitions or past events which were traumatic? Or maybe you have had a loss of a person or pet in your life? Giving you the space to voice your feelings, needs, and thoughts is central to my work with you. I believe everyone has strengths that can be used to change any life situation. Our focus would be to identify these strengths to allow you to move forward in your journey.

To heal is to touch with love that which was previously touched by fear. We all have times when we need extra support to work through life's challenges. Whether it be mental health concerns, trauma, relationship dynamics, identity exploration, life transitions, family relations, work stressors, or any other difficult circumstance; you don't have to walk this journey alone. Together we will work to empower you to put your needs first and take steps to reach your goals. Everyone has a story and is worthy of space to tell it, and together we will honor, heal, and learn from your experiences.

Being a human on this planet may bring difficulties that can impact how we live, how we love, how we work, and how we play. Life's challenges, losses, and traumas may have left you feeling lost, alone, disconnected, stuck, and unable to live to your fullest capacity, in spite of your best efforts. Challenges can exist in many areas: relationships, work, sense of identity, how you live in the world, even how you live in your own body. Sometimes you need a professional and non-judgmental ally to assist with restoring and preserving emotional and relational well-being, so that you can live more fully and authentically in the world.

At one time or another, any one of us may feel overwhelmed, anxious or depressed. We may feel we are alone in our suffering or going through something no one else can understand. We may turn to drugs, alcohol or reckless behaviors. Our relationships suffer, our identity and self-worth collapse, and the vision we have for a happy, fulfilled future seems impossible to achieve. For many, therapy provides the guidance, skills, support and insight to unravel the source of suffering and change limiting thoughts, beliefs and behaviors into healthy, adaptive ones.

My adult clients can be located anywhere in New York State. I am becoming licensed in North and South Carolina. My evidence based practices are client centered. I meet you, where you are, by phone. I consider it sacred when my clients feel safe to speak to me about anything they have experienced. Honesty, trust and openness is all that is needed to begin the healing process. I see results quickly with these attributes. This is my calling.

With formal training in CBT, AEDP, EMDR, EFT, the Gottman Method & psychodynamic therapy, I blend multiple evidence-based practices to create individualized approaches to change for couples and individuals. As an integrative psychotherapist with additional degrees from Harvard and Northwestern in Psychology & Human Development, I draw on deep knowledge of human behavior. I specialize in working with intimate partners and individuals. I work with individuals and couples to discover what matters most and set long and short-term goals together.
