Reality Therapy in New City, NY

Are you at a point in your life where you feel like something has to give? It could be a major struggle like infidelity, divorce, low self-esteem, or having a stressful job that is impacting your personal life, or just feeling like you're not quite happy and need to figure out why.

I do not believe one size fits all approach. Whether you are struggling with a specific issue such as anxiety, depression, work related issues, career challenges, familial dynamics, PTSD, DV survivor, romantic relationship, friendships, women related issues, or just need someone to talk to, I am here to listen and support you every step of the way. I am also here to help you identify maladaptive patterns, overcome barriers, and challenges that impact reaching your goals.

Great to meet you! My name is Briana! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with over 13 years' experience working with adult individuals, couples, and groups. I seek to not only challenge Clients, but to support, empower, and foster growth towards accomplishing their goals. I look to working with people who need support for Trauma, Addiction, Mental Health, Infertility, Conflict Resolution and Communication.

I believe that healing and growth are part of our human experience. Our anxiety, depression and trauma often times are some of  the barriers that prevent us from achieving these goals. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions and/or trauma? Let’s meet and figure out what you need in order to cope better with these challenges. I hope that with our work together & emotional support, you will be able to conquer these obstacles and live a life full of healing and growth. As a therapist, I provide a safe space for clients to engage in the process of self-discovery while providing structure for change to take place.

My ideal client is trying to understand not only the root causes that created a less than optimal life functioning emotionally, socially, occupationally, academically, or intrafamilially, but the actual cognitive behavioral steps to remedy the problem. I believe most problems we encounter in our everyday lives can be improved upon and transformed into a life we have chosen.

Are you struggling with guilt and shame. It takes strength and self-awareness to recognize when we need support, and I commend you for that. Guilt and shame can be incredibly overwhelming, but therapy can help you gain clarity and confidence over that dark cloud. Through open and honest conversations, you'll have the opportunity to explore the root causes of your guilt, examine your thought patterns, and identify any barriers that may be holding you back.

Have there been things that you wish you could talk about with friends and loved ones, but just don’t feel comfortable? Are you struggling with relationships or your professional life? Has the pandemic taken a toll on you? Perhaps you are just feeling stuck in life, held back by depression or low self esteem. I understand that these issues can be overly exhausting. My job is to help you navigate healthy ways to move forward in life and assist you in achieving a life full of purpose. I offer a warm and safe space where it is okay to share your feelings, judgement free.

Our therapeutic approach recognizes the quality of the therapeutic relationship as an essential element in the therapy process.We look to collaborate with clients to identify core challenges in their life and assist them in developing treatment goals and objectives which ultimately empower them to take charge of the design and direction of their life.

Are you spending your days hurting emotionally and confused about how to cope? Do you feel alone even if you're with others, that nobody seems to understand you or your pain, uncomfortable sharing your feelings out of concern for what others might think or because you don’t want to burden them? Do you judge yourself, standing in your own way to make peace with yourself?

Does life feel like it’s in a state of flux and you’re looking for its center? Are you finding existing exhausting? I offer a warm, humorous, and safe space to help you find the peace you are looking for in your outer and inner worlds. In our shared space, teens, young adults, and adults can find compassion, constancy, and support amid the changing demands of our day-to-day lives. Together we can approach your hurts and joys from a stance of acceptance, curiosity, and safeness.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in working with teens, young adults and women. I believe that the most important part of therapy is empowerment of the individual. I can help by allowing a client to see that they have choices in almost all aspects of their lives. My goal is for a client to leave the room feeling like they can handle anything life throws at them. An empowered person is more likely to be successful in all aspects of their life, and I would love to help you along that journey in getting to where you want to be.

My gift and passion are therapeutic support and guidance for individuals, couples and families. Since 2004 I have been dedicated to serving the well-being and growth of adults whether aiming to overcome challenges, or to achieve personal and interpersonal betterment. I have the utmost respect for individuals who actively seek to achieve therapeutic goals, am grateful for the opportunity to travel alongside another's journey and believe that clients deserve to be proud and at peace on their path.

Most of us just want to lead happy and fulfilling lives. Depending on their life experiences and environment, this looks different for every individual. Therefore, my main goal will always be to help clients work toward this goal, while embarking on a path of healing that leads to the best version of themselves. One that embraces every facet of who they are. As my client, you can expect a safe space where you can feel seen without any judgement. At a pace that is specific to you, I will push you beyond your comfort zone to help you overcome the barriers that are negatively impacting your life.

My name is Vincent Mauro and I am a LMHC licensed mental health counselor. I specialize in treating depression, trauma, anxiety, OCD, sexual function, and related difficulties. In sessions, I work to help my clients better understand the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I help my clients achieve individual and interpersonal growth through goal-oriented talk therapy.

I don't accept insurance but am able to keep costs down by only making home-visits, meeting off-site, and over Skype. This will maintain maximum privacy, giving assistance to people who otherwise might not be able to access mental health services. Our home-based sessions can also eliminate barriers for families who don't have good child care options or who have trouble securing rides to the clinic. My practice is cognitive-educational and solution-focused. We will process your understanding of the situation you are in and develop a strategic plan of action.
