I am a Mental Health Counselor & National Certified Counselor with experience counseling all ages. I will work with you through a variety of transitional stages during your life- including life changes, relationships, daily stress, struggles with anxiety, depression, trauma, and all that life brings. I enjoy tailoring sessions towards the needs of each individual!

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. My work is rooted in the belief that healing begins in a safe and supportive relationship, where you can show up just as you are and feel genuinely seen and understood. Whether you’re moving through anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, or the weight of cultural and generational trauma, I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore your experience with care and curiosity.

You’re not here to be “fixed” because you’re not broken. You’re here to reconnect with your inner wisdom, reclaim clarity, and build a life that feels rooted and whole. I’m here to support you in that process, every step of the way.

Hello! Congratulations for taking the first steps in getting the support you desire. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker trained in Psychotherapy and provide a warm, supportive, non-judgmental and collaborative, therapeutic environment so you may gravitate toward leading a life that's happy and fulfilling. I provide individualized treatment for women who are doing well, but are seeking deep and insightful reasons for their unhappiness. Whether it stems from sensitivities from past family trauma, feelings of insecurities within yourself or your relationships, stressors at work, or the feeling that something just "isn't right." I specialize in working with women navigating life's challenges, motivated toward personal/professional growth, who struggle with family/emotional trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship and identity concerns, grief and loss, chronic illness, and major life changes. I also have experience supporting clients through pre/perinatal and postpartum concerns, peri-menopausal, and post-menopausal mood and anxiety issues, as well as cultural, spiritual and religious trauma. Additionally, I am passionate about helping creative professionals, whether they seek employment as artists, writers, actors or musicians deal with painful feelings, fear of rejection and the difficulty involved in the sometimes painful journey toward their dream careers.

I am psychodynamically trained, but my approach is person-centered, insightful, relational, holistic, strengths-based, positive and grounded in compassion and empowerment. Together, we work to help you better understand your experiences, put your emotions into perspective, build resilience, and develop greater self-awareness and confidence. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process that honors your unique story while helping you create meaningful and lasting change.

I am licensed in Maryland, Virginia and New Jersey with over 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. My approach to therapy is solution focused and client centered with a bit of fun and humor. I believe that a simple and casual approach makes therapy more palatable, allowing for openness and individualism. I work with my clients to find the ways that work for them to reach the goals that they would like to reach. I follow your lead towards achieving your goals

I work with children, teens, and young adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure of themselves. I know it can be hard to open up, especially if you’re used to holding things in. I’ve seen how powerful it is when people feel truly heard and supported.

I currently support middle and high school students in a therapeutic school setting and continue to provide in home therapy and family-based therapy; as well as facilitate process groups for adolescents and parent support groups.

I focus on challenges on anxiety, mood changes, trauma, and self-esteem challenges- areas that can deeply impact how someone sees themselves and moves through the world.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish and value creating a culturally responsive and welcoming space. Therapy with me is collaborative — we move at your pace, but we also work toward real growth. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start. We’ll work through it together.

Hello there! My name is Shannon and whether this is your first time seeking therapy or you're looking for continuing support, I'd be honored to partner with you in your healing journey. Using trauma-informed approaches, I meet you where you're at in your journey. I've supported clients through issues such as complex trauma, anxiety, challenging relationships, grief, and low self-esteem along with others.

Welcome! I’m Erica Ali, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over six years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and discover their inner strength. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nyack Alliance Graduate School of Counseling.

My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely, build resilience, and develop tools to support lasting mental wellness. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply looking to improve your overall well-being, I’m here to walk alongside you on your journey toward a healthier, more balanced life.

My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.

Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.

Hi, I’m Lauren, and I’m so glad you found me!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.

My practice is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I believe therapy is a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported—without judgment.

Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, or simply seeking personal growth, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs.

My approach integrates evidence-based modalities such as CBT, mindfulness, and solution- focused therapy, which will always be guided by your goals and values. Clients often describe me as warm, empowering, and down-to-earth. I strive to create a safe and affirming environment where healing feels possible and change feels achievable.

Outside the therapy room, you can find me running around the town, working out at the gym or at the beach (weather permitted). I'm a laidback, beach girl who loves to stay active. I bring that same sense of presence into my work with clients.

If you’re ready to begin—or just curious about what therapy might offer—I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
