I went on to obtain my Master's in Social Work degree from New York University in 1992.

I joined the Blue Skies Psychological Services in 2021 and provide services through the group practice.

I am thrilled to be a member of Blue Skies Psychological Services, P.C. I have always wanted to be a therapist, as my own experiences with therapy have helped me so much. Being diagnosed with a learning disability at an early age gave me compassion for what all family members must cope with when confronting LD and other special needs. I work with teens, adults, couples and families, in various settings, such as schools, colleges, vocational training programs. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I customize my approach to suit each unique individual, utilizing a client-centered approach. Empathy and active listening are key.

Whether you are encountering sadness, stress, loss, or navigating a life transition, my goal is to provide guidance in identifying the origin of the disruption and empower you to explore potential solutions toward overcoming them! For some of us, reaching out for help is difficult. Perhaps those you have tried to confide in misunderstand you or underestimate the courage it takes to be vulnerable. In our therapeutic relationship, I strive to promote a safe, comfortable environment that is free of judgement and criticism.

You've taken the first step in tackling those issues which have become difficult to manage. Share your story with an experienced professional in a private and confidential setting. Gaining insight gives us solutions that may not be that difficult to put in place. I am a licensed psychologist with 20+ years of experience with children, adolescents, adults and couples. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, poor self confidence or stress resulting from relationships with family, friends or co-workers, don't go it alone and make an appointment today.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been working in both the Mental Health & Substance Abuse field for 10 years. I became a Credentialed Substance Abuse Counselor to enhance my skills when supporting those with addictions. I am effective working with adults with a variety of mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, adjusting to life changes and substance abuse. I utilize Supportive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Based Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

Esoterics Counseling was founded by a Black male therapist to provide quality mental health care by credentialed practitioners who recognize the unique challenges, transitions, and actualities of navigating life as a marginalized individual. We provide mental health support through a decidedly anti-racist and queer -friendly perspective while embedding cultural humility, awareness, and responsiveness into our practice. We strive to build a therapeutic alliance based less on diagnosis and more on uncovering effective strategies to assist with clarity, agency, and purpose.

My practice focuses on treating individuals, couples and families who are tackling issues such as: marital & family conflict; stress, anxiety, depression & ADHD; as well as creating healthy boundaries and parenting styles. Moreover, I have extensive experience working directly with parents and teens. Have you been considering therapy? Have you been experiencing distress in your relationship or family? Have you been sad, angry, or irritable? Do you often feel frustrated or overwhelmed? Have you been experencing difficulty concentrating, or staying focused? Are you concerned about a child or loved one? If so, therapy might help.

As a result, exploring the therapeutic process is a gift in a box ready to be opened. Ready to be opened by you! 'You", the one who is seeking to improve your mental capacity. The one who wants to go about your day feeling energized, fearless, and motivated. And "you" the one who wants to take back control of your purpose in life. So if you're seeking out ways in which you can improve your thoughts, which shapes your behavior, I will be more than willing to guide you through the process.

Teresa has worked for years helping Adult Childrenand their family that are or have lived with someones's alcohol and drug abuse & feels like the addiction has made their lives unmanagable.It is important to talk honestly with family members about what is happening in the family and to help them express their concerns and feelings.Families with alcohol and drug problems usually have high levels of stress and confusion.These family memebers need to have their experiences validated and learn that they did not cause it they cannot control the addiction, and they cannot cure the addiction.

I firmly believe clinicians can provide good treatment if they approach the therapeutic work with compassion, patience, empathy, skills & commitment to growth. In treatment, there can not be effective emotional connectedness without understanding. I attempt to enter my clients inner worlds not solely from an impassive theoretical arena but to actually walk, see & feel their pains and traumas. Hold my hand, TOGETHER we can successfully walk through this journey. My practice delves into client stressors such as depression, anxiety, family issues & social problems as well as specializing in traumatic issues such as incest, rape, panic disorders, PTSD, grief & loss.

Things have been pretty rough lately for most of us. Isolation from lockdowns & social distancing may have you feeling off/ down or like you forgot how to interact with others to some degree. As the world starts trying to get back on its feet it may bring up a lot of anxiety. Maybe none of that is the issue for you but something just doesn't feel right and you're tired. Whatever you're experiencing you're not alone.

I have an interpersonal style, and believe in treating the whole family unit. It is most important to create an atmosphere of trust and comfort, along with the clear boundaries of practice. However, the most important aspect of treatment is all parties working together to achieve the goal. No therapist, without cooperation of all parties, will be able to achieve goals.

My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns and negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I believe that treatment works best when it is tailored to the personality and individual needs of each client. Rather than relying on one theoretical perspective, I use a multi-modal approach, utilizing interpersonal, behavioral, and solution-focused techniques. I have extensive experience dealing with a variety of psychological problems, including depression, anxiety, as well as work-related, phase of life, marital, and family issues. In addition, I specialize in focusing on parenting concerns, divorce issues, infertility issues, and dealing with special needs children. I provide individual, couple, family, and group counseling for adults
