Christine Highland
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
In the sea of content available online, we may think that we can "fix" ourselves if we just have the right information, but this is not the case. We require connection for healing to occur. I practice therapy in a way that prioritizes the
relationship
between therapist and patient. I utilize the information gleaned from our
relationship
to uncover thoughts and feelings you weren’t aware of, helping you stop behaviors and ways of being that are no longer serving you. I help patients see the role trauma has played in their lives by providing education and nurturing areas of psychological growth that were suppressed because of trauma.

LCSW, JA

As a Jungian psychoanalyst I work with individuals who are willing to take the road of creative expression to relieve their emotional distress and suffering. I listen to the symptoms of the body and the soul in order to transform them into meaningful symbols which can guide one toward wholeness. I use sandplay and dreamwork as some of the creative means to reach for the expression of what is yet to be known. My goal of therapy with my clients is the alleviation of symptoms and a move toward creative living. I work with couples where psyche in

Alice Fadiora
Marriage & Family Therapist, MDiv, LAMFT
Verified
It is to walk alongside you in times of transition, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief,
relationship issues
, marital and family conflict, or any other difficult experience life throws your way.
We have all been broken by life, fragmented by negative experiences, and sometimes we feel so broken that we are unable to pick up the pieces alone, but, fear not! Mental, emotional, spiritual, occupational, and social wellness is a process and not a state of mind. It is a level of perfection we ought to continually strive for, because those fragmented pieces of our lives CAN be put back together. Relationships CAN be mended, and CHANGE IS POSSIBLE, but it doesn't just happen; we have to be intentional. "We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." -MLK

If you are struggling in your
relationship
, I can help you and your partner restore your connection, deepen intimacy and strengthen your emotional bond. I understand the emotional pain of
relationship
discord and how it impacts all aspects of your life and well-being. When your
relationship
is not working - or a
relationship
trauma has occurred - nothing seems right in the world. You need your
relationship
to steady so that you can face life's challenges with confidence knowing that you and your partner are together.
Judith Margolin
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
My work often involves relationships that have gone awry, whether it is the
relationship
with oneself or with others.
All types of life experiences can effect how you feel about yourself and others. Your experiences form the lens through which you view your world, and your relationships. Symptoms of depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflicts, sexual issues, for example, emerge when old when the lens becomes clouded, or when ways of coping are no longer effective. As client and therapist, we will work together to address your particular concerns. We will focus on understanding your personal story and, with equal importance, on the development of a more effective repertoire of skills that you can use in order to feel better.
Archana Jain
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I believe therapy can help one learn to navigate strong emotions and better regulate one's responses to life's challenges. Feeling understood and validated by one's therapist can allow one to develop insight into thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In knowing the context and meaning that underlies how we relate to the self, to others and to the world, we have greater choice in breaking free from distressing patterns that may be keeping us stuck. Over time, the therapeutic
relationship
becomes the vehicle that allows one to carve a personal and professional life that feels satisfying and deeply meaningful.

Ruth B Goldston
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
I work with adults, older adults, couples, and college students. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety and
relationship issues
. I'm also interested in women's issues and assertiveness. I tailor therapy to each individual client, rather than taking a "one size fits all" approach. So, with one person, therapy might focus on solving some current problem or crisis, for another it might be learning stress management techniques, and for another it could be working to resolve issues and trauma from earlier in life. Most often, it's a little, or a lot, of all of these things.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
