Welcome! If you’re constantly replaying conversations in your head, second-guessing your decisions, or struggling while trying to keep everything together, you don’t have to carry that weight alone. As a licensed therapist in New York (LMHC-D) and New Jersey (LPC), I help teens and adults untangle anxiety, step out of overthinking patterns, and quiet the inner critic. My style is warm, grounded, and collaborative. Together, we can pair cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) tools with a strength-based approach to reduce the noise, build resilience, and help you feel more calm and capable in your everyday life.

Many of the individuals and couples I work with are at a crossroads—frustrated, sometimes burnt out, and seeking practical, workable strategies for change. Therapy offers a dedicated, supportive space to identify obstacles and map a path toward meaningful personal growth. With over 15 years of experience across healthcare, restorative justice, and outpatient settings, I provide telehealth therapy at Grow for adults and couples. My practice focuses on: *Chronic Pain & Complex Medical Issues *Anxiety & Phobias *Fertility & Family Building Support *LGBTQ+ & Gender-Affirming Care *Eating Disorder/Substance Use Step-Down Maintenance: Supporting ongoing recovery from substance use or eating disorders following higher levels of care. *Couples Therapy: Improving communication and relational dynamics (clinical outpatient focus only). Practice Boundaries & Administrative Policies To maintain a clear focus on clinical care, please review the following scope boundaries: *Legal & Forensic Services: I do not provide forensic evaluations, court-ordered treatment, litigation support, or expert witness testimony for legal proceedings, divorce, or custody disputes. *Disability & Administrative Paperwork: I do not perform disability evaluations or complete short/long-term disability claims; I do not write Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letters. *Telehealth & Medical Requirements: Virtual therapy for chronic pain, ARFID, or medical distress serves strictly as a complementary psychological service. Because virtual care lacks physical monitoring: A. Clients with ARFID or eating disorders must maintain ongoing care with an in-person physician for routine medical safety. B. Clients seeking pain reprocessing or somatic therapy must have their pain evaluated by a physician. ******If medical or psychiatric needs exceed virtual outpatient scope, I will assist with referrals to local in-person providers**************

Born and raised in the inner city by a single mother and a large extended family, I noticed the needs of those that were mentally or physically diagnosed were often not met. Therefore, I began to inquire about what I needed to do in order to be a part of the solution. I began to work in the field and I have worked in Behavioral/Mental Health for close to 20 years. My experience covers a plethora of ages and diagnosis across many settings. My determination to treat and support those with mental health diagnosis during the pandemic inspired me to perform outpatient therapy via telehealth to adults and adolescents. I specialize in adults 25-55 with various diagnoses but primarily Anxiety, PTSD, trauma and Depression to name a few. I love to utilize CBT, CPT, trauma informed care (TIC) and Motivational Interviewing as treatment modalities.

While these experiences are common, they can also feel isolating, overwhelming, or emotionally exhausting. You do not have to navigate this stage of life alone.

I believe that each one of us has the answers to our problems inside of us. However, sometimes we need someone on our journey to help us unlock those answers by asking the right questions---things you may not have considered, presenting proven strategies, and psychoeducation. Although, you will make strides with the energy and effort you give, the number one predictor that one will improve is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. I hope to provide a place of warmth, compassion, and acceptance in which you feel empowered and free to approach any concerns. I am here to help you along on your journey. I am a licensed mental health counselor in Arizona, Florida, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, and Utah. I graduated from Florida Atlantic University with an Educational Specialist degree in Mental Health Counseling. I also earned a Master's of Art from Roosevelt University. I have experience working with youth and their families as well as adults. The theoretical framework that I usually draw from is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I also apply Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing Techniques as needed. I address trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, interpersonal skills, self-esteem, anger, problem-solving, and decision-making. In conjunction with therapy, I believe that exercise, proper nutrition, and good sleep hygiene are an integral part of overcoming mental health concerns. Change, even positive change can be challenging and uncomfortable. I hope to provide the necessary support as a champion of change.

I’m Gail Spinnato, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should be a place where you feel supported, understood, and comfortable being yourself. I bring warmth, compassion, empathy, and a genuine curiosity about the people I work with. I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where you can talk openly about the things that may feel difficult, uncomfortable, or even hard to put into words. My approach is strengths-based and person-centered. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you—not to tell you how you should feel or what you should do. We’ll work collaboratively to identify what matters most to you, build on the strengths you already have, and move toward the changes you want to make. I move at your pace and believe therapy is most effective when we take things one step at a time. Over the course of my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with people across the lifespan and from many different backgrounds and life circumstances. I’ve always been drawn to working with people who may feel unseen, misunderstood, or underrepresented. I especially value creating a space where people can feel accepted for who they are and supported through whatever season of life they are experiencing. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, navigating motherhood or fertility concerns, facing a major life transition, or feeling controlled by OCD or trauma, you don't have to have everything figured out before you begin therapy. You can simply start where you are. We’ll take it from there, together.

I am a licensed clinical social worker supporting children, adults, couples, and families through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, relationship strain, ADHD, mood disorders, and the emotional impact of chronic or complex medical issues. I offer telehealth care and am licensed in Missouri, Texas, and New Jersey. I am warm, steady, and down-to-earth. I want therapy to feel safe and collaborative, not stiff or clinical for its own sake. My work is practical and client-centered: we use what helps you most, including evidence-based therapy, family and school-based skills, 12-step support when addiction is part of the picture, and biblical counseling if that is your preference. My experience includes schools, hospitals, emergency rooms, homes, inpatient and outpatient programs, and community crisis work. I have built programs, supervised students and staff, and trained youth volunteers for a suicide hotline. Those settings showed me how quickly life can change, and how much strength people can find when they are not facing it alone. I am especially committed to clients who feel dismissed by systems—healthcare, housing, or the justice system—and I stay with the work until there is a clearer, more stable path forward.

Do you ever find yourself wondering, “Why am I not myself anymore?” You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside while feeling completely different on the inside. Maybe you overthink conversations, second-guess yourself, feel anxious all the time, or live in survival mode. This can happen after unhealthy relationships, especially when there has been manipulation, control, constant criticism, or emotional invalidation. Over time, those experiences can affect how you see yourself, your decisions, and your ability to trust your own instincts. Sometimes you just need to talk to someone who understands how complicated these relationships can be—because it can feel like nobody else understands the struggle. My name is Lisa Duncan, LCSW, and I do. I have a particular interest in helping people recover from emotionally unhealthy, manipulative, or abusive relationships, including experiences commonly described as narcissistic abuse. Let's figure out what *you* actually want and need. I also work with anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, and major life changes. My approach is empathetic, practical, and collaborative. Therapy with me is a conversation. We’ll talk about what’s happening, look for patterns, make connections, and sometimes challenge the way you’re looking at a situation. I’ll give you tools and strategies you can actually use in your everyday life. I use CBT, strengths-based, solution-focused, person-centered, and trauma-informed approaches, but I don’t believe therapy should feel like following a script. We can work on understanding why you responded the way you did, recognizing patterns that may have developed as a way of coping, rebuilding trust in yourself, and learning how to set boundaries without feeling guilty or constantly wondering if you’re doing something wrong. You don’t have to come to therapy knowing exactly what you need. You may just know that something isn’t working anymore. That’s enough to start.

Together we will develop a plan customized to your unique needs, preferences and goals. I will teach you healthy ways to process your feelings, improve communication and empower you to take care of yourself.

Hello! I'm Danica Gurdinak. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey. I work with both children (12+) and adults. I graduated from Chestnut Hill College with a M.S. in Clinical & Counseling Psychology, as well as, a concentration in co-occurring disorders. Following this, I have been working in the field for six years. There is an old quote that says "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." This is a saying that I came to live by & is one that I hope to teach to my clients. Life is unfortunately not always sunshine & rainbows, but it is up to us to give ourselves the skills & tools we need to not suffer through it. Overall, I hope to gift my clients the support, guidance, & mindset to overcome and find their strengths. In DBT, the objective is to build a life worth living & that's the work I do with my clients.
