I am a licensed psychotherapist in the state of New York with eight years of professional experience supporting adults navigating stress, anxiety, anger management, life transitions, trauma, ADHD, addiction, and the emotional impact of domestic violence. I help individuals 18 and older who are ready to build healthier patterns, strengthen emotional resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives.
I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming, especially when life feels heavy or uncertain. My role is to provide a safe, open, and judgment-free environment where you can process your thoughts and emotions freely. Together, we will explore your story, identify what’s getting in the way, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, balanced, and fulfilling.
I am a licensed clinical social worker that has focused strictly on mental health counseling for 14 years. I graduated from Adelphi University with a graduate degree in 2014. I look to help you identify your strengths and apply them so that you can increase your knowledge of self to live to your full potential and achieve your desired outcomes. We do this by forming a trusting and caring relationship within a safe and secure space.
I support clients to explore their habitual beliefs and behaviors that have been causing personal distress and/or relational problems.
It can be challenging and even bring up fearful thoughts and feeling to start the counseling process. I invite you to push past your boundaries and allow me to support you on the journey towards knowing yourself and healing. This is so you can experience joy in the life you choose to make.
I look forward to meeting you,
Lisa Hotchkiss LCSW
Hey there, my name is Shakirah. Are you struggling with finding your passion or purpose? Have you realized that what you thought you wanted has changed? What about trying to keep it together during these challenging times? I have been providing therapy to adults struggling with stress management, low motivation, and self-esteem issues for the past 10 years. I help others change maladaptive habits like negative self-talk, procrastination, and inconsistency. These times are uniquely challenging and everyone could use some support.

Hi, I’m Ambar, a licensed clinical social worker who supports individuals navigating stress, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is grounded, collaborative, and culturally attuned, blending evidence-based methods with practical tools you can use both inside and outside of session.
Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck in repeating patterns, or disconnected from themselves or others. Together, we slow things down, build awareness, and explore the emotions and beliefs shaping those experiences. I focus on helping you understand your internal world while strengthening skills for emotional regulation, communication, and resilience.
I draw from mindfulness-based techniques, emotionally focused therapy, and insight-oriented approaches to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel seen, supported, and challenged in a compassionate way. My goal is to help you gain clarity, interrupt automatic reactions, and move toward more intentional choices and healthier relationships.
Whether you’re seeking relief from anxiety, healing from past experiences, or greater confidence in your day-to-day life, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and a commitment to your growth.

I am a licensed mental health therapist with many years of experience providing therapy to individuals, adolescents, groups, and occasionally couples in various settings. My experience has led me to connect with many individuals at different phases in their lives who wanted to change something but didn't know how.
I have worked with various populations from so many backgrounds, and all that stuck out to me was the disfranchised. A person losing their sense of autonomy and self always left me with that question, "Can I do more?" In my journey as a provider, I want to uplift my clients and remind them they have always had a voice and power that is waiting.
Ray Grizzel taught college psychology courses for 31 years, including creating and teaching ones on The Art and Science of Relationships, Parenting, Death, and Change, Challenge, and Resilience.

In private practice, Ray has worked with children, teens, and adults using an eclectic therapeutic approach. Ray builds on a person’s strengths to create with them the resources and ability to fully live their lives. A trauma-based approach is most certainly an aspect of the therapeutic interactions.
