Shannon Nardi
Counselor, MS, LAC, NTP
Verified
I work best with individuals in which are internally motivated for change, looking to work collaboratively alongside the individual to explore depression, anxiety, PTSD, codependency, and much more. My approach to therapy is person-centered and solution-focused, focused on offering a kind, compassionate, yet straightforward approach to growth, which encourages individuals to think deeper and build connections that will assist them with a better understanding of the underlying issues. I believe that the client-therapist relationship is by far the most important aspect that encourages internal growth.
Genevieve Shineman
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW
Verified
I believe that within each individual, family, or relationship there is a natural and effective process for healing. Although in times of crisis helping a person or family find safety and stabilization becomes a priority, once this is established I have found an inside-out approach can be a powerful, creative, and effective process toward finding your unique self and path.

Do you spend time worrying about the future or rehashing the past? Is it hard to stop your mind from racing? Conversely, is it hard to get moving? Are you aware of how stress impacts the body? Do you feel out of balance in your eating, sleeping, exercise, substance use, technology or relationships? If you are looking for more ease and well being now, in this moment, you may thrive with mindfulness informed treatment. Mindful tools help us live life to the fullest, without judgment, in the only place we are truly alive, the present moment. It's more about discovering what's right with you, than wrong. It's simple, but not easy.

We can then work together on the client's goals, whether they be personal mental health goals, improving relationships, or working through a complicated past.

Kristina Cofone
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

Upon entering therapy, my clinical approach is tailored to meet each individual's needs. There is not a cookie cutter person, thus, there is no cookie cutter approach to therapy. I work from an eclectic approach, incorporating a multitude of therapeutic modalities to assist my clients in meeting their treatment goals. I generally incorporate cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, person centered, and solution focused therapy strategies into each session. My clients and I will identify struggles and develop empowerment strategies to improve quality of life. In a non judgmental and supportive environment, one can feel safe to explore encountered problems.

Kaitlin Nichols
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LSW
Verified
Do you often put others' needs and feelings before your own? I specialize in working with women/NB/queer people to find greater happiness and fulfillment in their lives. A lot of the people I work with are "successful" in many ways, but have never gotten around to dealing with "all that emotional stuff". I can offer you an authentic, safe space where you can learn to show up as yourself and prioritize your own feelings and needs. Therapy sessions can get a bad wrap for being all tears and challenge. We can do that but we laugh at lot in my sessions too! Balance. Together, we can find the balance that is right for you.

Gricel Mello
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, ACS
Verified
Are you feeling sad, anxious or overwhelmed? How about feeling disconnected or having no purpose in life? I understand that coming to therapy can be scary. We can feel so vulnerable opening up to a stranger about our confusions, fears and insecurities. Therapy is a process of self-exploration, change and healing. The therapy process will help you in gaining greater awareness about yourself, your relationships, and situations you find yourself in. In therapy, you will learn skills for coping and discover solutions to your problems.

Jerry Lamagna
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
Truth is essential to our mental integrity. Full access to the "truths" embedded in our personal stories and the emotions, beliefs and healthy impulses they engender make us "whole". They form the basis of our identity, resilience, self-worth; our very well being. The problem: our "truths" sometimes appear overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and/or terrifying, particularly if safe/trustworthy people haven't been available to help. In order to cope, real feelings are buried, "looking good" facades created and the past (consciously) ignored. Unfortunately, dissociating these truths creates a life that lacks choice and is instead stubbornly ruled by the past.
