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. Using the information and experiences of helping people in a group setting during that time period, he is aware of the personal and significant issues that trouble and challenge people. 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.

I’m Dr. Christine Cain, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New York with over a decade of experience supporting children, families, and adults through life’s challenges. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported from the very beginning. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I earned my Doctorate in Social Work to deepen my commitment to providing thoughtful, compassionate, and culturally responsive support to the individuals and families I serve. I use approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy , Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and a strengths-based perspective to help clients better understand themselves, manage stress and anxiety, navigate life transitions, and build healthier coping strategies. I believe therapy should feel empowering, not intimidating, and I work alongside you at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful. Whether you are facing personal challenges, relationship concerns, parenting stress, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everyday life, you do not have to go through it alone. Together, we can work toward healing, growth, balance, and creating the life you want for yourself.

I am a licensed social worker with 8 years of experience supporting older teens and adults as they navigate depression, anxiety, and low self‑esteem. My style is warm, honest, and grounded in genuine connection — I believe people grow most when they feel both supported and gently challenged. I integrate holistic and energy psychology approaches to help clients reconnect with their bodies, deepen self‑awareness, and move toward inner healing at a pace that feels safe. I also bring a spiritual and integrative lens to my work. My background includes meditation, breathwork, and supporting clients who are navigating spiritual awakenings or exploring their inner world on a deeper level. I have traveled to Peru and Bali to engage in my own healing work with sacred practices and traditional medicines, experiences that have shaped my understanding of transformation, grounding, and the mind‑body‑spirit connection. I hold this work with deep respect and offer guidance that is supportive, non‑judgmental, and rooted in safety.

I approach psychotherapy as a process of developing a deeper, more honest understanding of oneself. Many people are not only seeking relief from symptoms; they are trying to understand why they repeatedly find themselves in certain relationships, emotional states, conflicts, or patterns of behavior. My clinical interests reflect a broad curiosity about human behavior, including identity, personality, attachment, anger, shame, desire, self-control, meaning, spirituality, interpersonal conflict, and the ways our histories continue to shape our present lives. I enjoy working with people who are already introspective, as well as those who are just beginning to put their inner experience into words. My approach is informed by psychodynamic and psychoanalytic thinking, while also drawing from DBT, ACT, cognitive-behavioral approaches, motivational interviewing, and other evidence-informed methods when useful. I am interested not only in what someone thinks or feels, but in the deeper patterns beneath those experiences: what they fear, long for, avoid, protect, and struggle to reconcile within themselves. I also believe therapy can involve questions larger than diagnosis: Who are you becoming? What kind of relationships do you want? What gives your life meaning? What does discipline, responsibility, or freedom look like for you? Outside of psychotherapy, my interests include martial arts, physical training, philosophy, religion and spirituality, neuroscience, writing, and human motivation. Years of martial arts training have shaped how I think about change: insight matters, but growth also requires patience, repetition, humility, restraint, and practice. My style is engaged, thoughtful, direct, and curious. I aim to create a space where we can think carefully about experiences that may be painful, contradictory, uncomfortable, or difficult to admit. Ultimately, I see therapy as a way to increase psychological freedom so that old patterns do not automatically determine what happens next.

I will let people with whom I worked over the years tell you about me: "Joel focuses on the issues at hand, because he listens very intently. Doesn't get into any psychobabble and provides clear insight to moving forward. Joel encouraged positive takeaways from all sessions." "He s attentive, professional, personable, and kind." "We were able as a family to have Joel's ear as an outside observer. He could extract the most important take away from all that we were working on together and put them into concrete terms. It helped bring clarity and structure to all the things we were trying to do. Having appointments with Joel also helped us to be accountable for the work. Therapy is work. We have to consciously make changes to see the improvements... Joel helped us to stay accountable. " When I came to see Joel I was in a bad place - personally and professionally. I was dealing with unresolved grief and that was impacting my habits and behaviors. After a few short sessions with Joel I started the road back to being the person who I believe myself to be. It has been about 6 months since my first session with Joel - I am now working a good job, I have returned to a hobby that I love and I just completed my first semester of a degree program towards a more rewarding profession (and earned a 4.0 GPA!). Joel helped me realize that I had the ability to determine my own course in life and helped me develop positive habits to achieve my goals." If you want to know more you can visit www.0to10.net.

Hi, I’m Zyeshia, a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience in behavioral health. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and feeling overwhelmed or stuck. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard and accepted, where you can show up authentically without having everything figured out, while gaining a better understanding of the patterns, emotions, and experiences that may be affecting your life. I draw from approaches including CBT, DBT, ACT, and behavioral strategies, tailoring therapy to the individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you’re looking to manage difficult emotions, improve relationships and boundaries, work through past experiences, or simply feel more in control of your life, we’ll work together toward changes that feel meaningful and realistic for you.

I help clients struggling with conflict, trauma, and their mental health achieve empowerment, growth and momentum in their lives and goals. Using my education, training and experience as a licensed psychologist and certified life coach, I approach my clients putting a relationship centered intuitive technique and implement a parallel process of healing from the past and taking action in the present. My experience as a psychologist includes over 5000 clinical hours over 5 years, working in 4 schools, a college campus and many clinics as well as my private practice. This experience included 500+ of hours of direct supervision from Doctoral level psychologists, which has helped me refine my craft so I can be the best clinician to support you as I can. As a married man and proud father of two, I tap into my life experience and my personal therapeutic journey to offer my clients the parts of my own map of healing and action that is relevant to them. My personal therapy has made me understand what it is like to sit on the coach and I integrate into my therapy what I liked and weed out what I did not find helpful (i.e. How does that make you feel?). It has also helped me build self awareness and achieve a degree of healing that helps me be able to understand what it means to truly suffer as well as what healing actually looks like. I am an Orthodox Jew and proud man of faith and when my clients have a value system that is aligned with my value system, I integrate religious and spiritual perspectives and practices into the therapeutic space. If they are not aligned, I do not. I enjoy chess, working out, and look forward to buy one get one days at Carvel.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals with complex and high acuity mental health needs. My work is grounded in trauma informed and trauma responsive care, with a strong commitment to creating inclusive, affirming spaces for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent clients, and individuals in rural communities. I work across the lifespan, including children (7+), adults, older adults, families, and couples. My approach is collaborative and empowering, centered on the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives and require my clinical expertise. I often describe my role as “working myself out of a job” to help clients build the insight, skills, and confidence needed to advocate for themselves and navigate systems independently. As a trauma specialist, I tailor evidence based interventions to each client’s identities, needs, strengths, and goals. My primary approaches include Somatic Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)-(EMDRIA certification pending), Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I also integrate Internal Family Systems informed interventions, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, exposure based strategies, mindfulness, and other approaches as clinically appropriate. I adapt treatment for neurodivergent clients and clients with intellectual or developmental disabilities because therapy should adjust to the person and not require the person to adjust to therapy. I am continually shaped by the courage, insight, and lived experiences clients bring into our work. Every advanced training, specialty, certification, and state license reflect lessons learned from clients. I carry their trust, stories, and influence into every session with gratitude and responsibility.

There is a moment in every person’s story when something says, “I can’t keep doing this the same way.” That moment matters. It may be quiet, messy, unexpected, or long overdue—but it can also be the beginning of something different. After more than 20 years in behavioral health and over 11 years as a clinician, I’ve learned that therapy is not about having all the answers. It’s about having a place to stop, breathe, tell the truth about where you are, and discover where you want to go next.

Hi! I am Cheryl. I know reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, but I am so glad you are here. I help teens and adults figure out how to handle constant worry, big life changes, and the stress of relationships or a new baby. I also help people who are totally exhausted fix their bad sleep habits so they can finally rest. My goal is to give you a warm, judgment-free space to untangle your thoughts. If it makes you more comfortable, we can talk in English, Mandarin, or Taiwanese!
