I am currently on maternity leave until mid-July. If you think we would be a good fit I can either add you to my waitlist or set you up with one of the clinicians that works for me (who are very similar to me). You can check out more information on my website www.wildlyauthenticcounseling.com
Do you feel like you have lost your spark and vibrancy? Do you struggle with the expectations of who you should be, never feeling like you are enough? Do you numb your feelings and ignore your hearts desires for comfort, stability, acceptance, and normalcy? That used to be me too! With my own ADHD and Trauma, life has not always been easy. I want to help you overcome the things that are weighing you down and help you actualize your most authentic life.
My core belief is simple: I believe in you and your ability to become the healthiest, most fulfilled version of yourself. Life often makes it hard to see that potential, let alone know how to get there. My role is to be your guide and ally on that journey.
My path to becoming a clinician has been intentional. Beyond my master's degree in counseling and advanced post-master's training, my work in non-profit and community mental health has given me a breadth of experience with people from all walks of life. This doesn't mean "I've seen it all," but it does mean that I'm prepared to meet you where you are, without judgment. No matter what you're going through, if you are ready to take a step, so am I.
Look, nothing gets better if we don't find a way to face it safely. That's why therapy takes courage. It took courage just to get this far, and you already deserve credit for that. When you're ready for that first, brave step of reaching out, I'll be here, ready to loan you some of my hope until you can hold it for yourself.
As a Master Level Social Worker, I have more than 24 years of experience providing therapeutic and advocacy services to adolescents and their families. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide services via telehealth and in outpatient, home, medical, and ALF's settings to adult and senior populations.
Do you want to feel more confident, more fulfilled, and more connected with yourself and with others? Do you want to treat yourself better - with more acceptance, compassion, and self-care? And, do you want to feel like you are living more grounded in the present moment? Sometimes, our past hurts and traumas can affect how we see ourselves, other people, and the world around us. They can affect our thoughts, feelings, and actions. And, they can cause us to act in ways that hurt the ones we love and go against our values, morals, and principles. We all want a life of meaning and purpose. I can help you achieve this.
I offer evidence-based treatments and approaches that are tailored to your individual needs and preferences. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist and I am trained in EMDR. I specialize in helping people heal from the effects of childhood trauma. I also specialize in treating chronic pain that is not responding well to medical or physical treatments.
If you are motivated and want to stop just "going through the motions" and start really living your life, I would be honored to work with you. I will work collaboratively, with you, to help you identify and achieve your goals. I have helped many others and would love to help you. Please call or email me now for a free 20 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of New York. My approach to therapy is warm, open-minded, collaborative, and supportive. Throughout that process, I use an integrative
approach utilizing DBT, CBT, strength-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I specialize in
couples’ therapy, and treatment resistant individual therapy.
I specialize in PTSD, anxiety, depression, and support for gay, lesbian, and bisexual clients. For 16 years, I’ve helped people navigate crisis, chronic mental health concerns, and life transitions with care and clarity.
My experience includes inpatient psychiatry, corrections, community mental health, youth counseling, and hospital-based crisis care. I provide diagnostic assessments and therapy tailored to each person’s needs.
I’m committed to creating a supportive, goal-focused space where you can feel heard and understood. If you’re ready to begin healing and move forward, I’d be honored to work with you.
I’m Rico Bodin, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Certified Master-Level Addiction Professional (MCAP) based in Florida. For over a decades, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals as they work through anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and questions around identity and self-understanding. I’m especially passionate about creating an affirming, supportive space, where clients can feel seen, safe, and understood as they move toward healing and growth.
Hi, I’m Jenna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering an affirming, judgment-free space for adults who want to understand themselves a little better and build a life that actually feels like their own.
I specialize in trauma and grief, helping people make sense of experiences that have changed them, navigate loss in all its forms, and find a way forward without feeling like they have to erase or “get over” what happened.
I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients, creatives, healthcare professionals, and people navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, self-worth, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in supporting healthcare professionals who carry the emotional weight of caring for others, process difficult or traumatic experiences, cope with loss, or try to reconnect with themselves after burnout.
