Therapy invites you into a safe shame free space where you can examine and gain awareness of what needs attention. If you self medicate your feelings with food, work, sex, spending or substances, etc...the therapuetic process can help you become your real self. Allowing yourself to feel seen, heard, and even challenged, in itself offers transformation. The ways we struggle and cope with overwhelming feelings can affect closeness and connection with others. Relationships can be difficult whether it’s with a partner, family member or coworker and can bring out the very best and also the very worst in us.

Jessica January Behr
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
Most people seek therapy when they are unhappy with one or more aspects of their lives. Whether you are struggling with work, love, family or self – you might be wondering, what will really help? I believe that understanding yourself is a great gift and a power. We as people are complicated beings. It takes effort and focused attention to parse out our complexity. It takes will and bravery to face ourselves; our lives, our pasts, presents and futures. It also takes intention to appreciate our strengths and recognize the areas that need strengthening.

Michele Itskowitch
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
I may not be the right therapist for everyone. A successful therapeutic relationship begins with a rapport between the therapist and their patient. Often, patients will meet me and we have an instant empathic connection. We both have a gut feeling it will develop into a good working alliance. My goal is to help patients become more aware of their obstacles, to find ways to resolve their inner conflicts, and make better choices. Patients are often unaware of how deeply other people and experiences have impacted them.
