Hello,
I work with individual adult clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress.
Life is not meant to live alone and in isolation. We need positive human beings to bear witness to our lives in order for us to become fully human. We need meaningful experiences to help us navigate this journey called life. If you are tired of being tired, anxious, sad, depressed, going through the motions and feel stuck in chaotic relationships and confusion that drains you; AND you are willing to do the work to get well, then you need skilled, compassionate support to get you unstuck and get your life back on track to experience purposeful living. It is here where our paths intersect. It is my intention that you to flourish, thrive and prosper and live life well.
I often use CBT, DBT, EMDR, Mindfulness modalities in therapy.

Each day, upon waking, I consider myself to be blessed for the opportunity to practice Clinical Social Work for a living. I have felt this way for the last seventeen years, and am a practitioner of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Therapy and hold to the belief that I can best serve my clients when I assist them in the pursuit of resolving today’s problems, issues, and concerns. Of course, I can use psychoanalysis to help my clients understand their past, the subject of “Why I am what I am”. Yet, I find it so much more exciting to explore with my clients, the “How do I improve myself” question. The way I try to live my life is to strive towards living in the "the solution" and the choice to live daily in that quest. To that point, it is fair to say that everything we do in our life IS a choice. We can choose to be empowered or not. Further, it is my contention that the way we live our lives is totally based on the way we perceive it. Two things to consider when you decide to work with me... I believe that nothing changes if nothing changes, and that pain is the cornerstone of growth. To that point, I am grateful to call myself a Christian/Catholic and am happy to talk about Faith or Spirituality as a tool for positive change if the Client desires it. It is not my job to convert you, or bring you back to Church. Yet, I am happy to talk to you about Faith and Spirituality as powerful instruments of change if you so choose.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor, with over 12 years of experience, specializing in the treatment of individuals who have experienced trauma. My practice is dedicated to helping clients navigate the complex journey of healing from traumatic events, providing them with the tools and support needed to reclaim their lives and well-being.
Trauma can have a profound impact on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical health. It's not uncommon for those who have experienced trauma to also struggle with substance abuse, depression, and anxiety. These conditions are often interconnected, creating a cycle that can be challenging to break without professional support.
You will experience a safe and supportive space where you will feel honored and respected. I provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your feelings and experiences at your own pace. I primarily use the EMDR protocol. During sessions, clients focus on distressing memories while engaging in guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. This process helps reframe and reduce the emotional charge of those memories, leading to lasting relief and improved well-being. Studies have found that approximately 60-90% of individuals with trauma experience significant symptom reduction after EMDR treatment.
If EMDR therapy is not the right fit for you, I can use other evidenced-based treatment modalities to best serve your needs.

Hello!
I’m Aida Valerio-Lerner.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who found my calling 11 years ago having discovered that I wanted to provide people with a therapeutic space to heal, grow, and ultimately transform.
Are you going through a personal challenge or major life transition? Do you need a safe space to have your experiences affirmed and validated? Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions and in need of support? Have you considered speaking to someone but are unsure of how to begin?
Wherever you are in your journey, I want to congratulate you on exploring possibilities to receive help. Therapy, like anything new or unknown, can feel scary. When Wendy was learning how to fly in Peter Pan, her fear of “what if I fall?” was met with Peter’s response of “oh, darling, what if you fly?” Not only did she fly, but she also transformed!
My therapeutic approach is gentle, warm, and trauma-informed to ensure your comfort every step of the way. I listen attentively and non-judgmentally, welcoming your authentic self. You can express yourself in English and/or Spanish as I am fluent in both languages. Together, we can overcome anything.

Good Day. I'm Karen. Learning how to cope with change can be difficult. Are there times where you feel as if friends and family misunderstand you? Do you find yourself struggling with change making it hard to adapt to new environments? If so, I am here to help!
I have worked in social services and mental health for over 10 years. As a Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor for over 7 years, I have collaborated with agencies and organizations within New York City area to address the needs of individuals and families; including those who are struggling to heal from the impact of anxiety, depression and various addictions that can cause damage to the lives of both young people and adults alike.
When collaborating with an individual, I provide support no matter your socio-economic, cultural, ethnic, educational, and other personal backgrounds. I am particularly sensitive to clients facing moments of transition, such as stress, loss, academic issues, employee issues, coping skills, marriage and family conflict; when the delicate balance can seem to tremble, and symptoms of anxiety, depression, and self-doubt can emerge.

Hello, I am Dr. Young.
Life is full of colors. Light or dark, each has its unique quality. The secret to becoming successful in playing the game of life is to change from the inside out.
We live to move forward, and it requires us to be more and do more. Resilience is an innate human capacity. In my view, everyone is capable of self-healing given the proper guidance and provided with supportive conditions. With a cultivated healthy sense of self, solutions appear with the clarity to think about what you desire in life, not what you cannot or don't have.
In tough water, even good swimmers might struggle. If you have dreams and hopes, I can help you to pick up new skills going through the waves of life. Let's work together!
