I'm dedicated to empowering people to make the changes in thinking and behavior that will allow them to take charge of their lives. As a woman committed to her own healing journey, I've helped people heal and transition through the pain of divorce, the family strain of medical/mental illness, grief/loss, trauma, and the challenges of marital/couple relationships. My approach is directive, action oriented, and intended to help you accomplish your goals in a timely fashion. I use a vast selection of effective skills and techniques in the context of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship.

"You can't go back to change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending." - C. S. Lewis. Therapy is a collaborative effort to set goals and achieve them and that happens with the right connection between a client and a therapist. My approach to therapy is a mixture of strength-based therapy, empowerment, CBT, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness and I customize each session depending on who is sitting in front of me. I understand that each person's story is different.

The path of life is not meant to be traveled alone; yet, we sometimes feel alone and unsupported. Having someone in our corner can help us make meaning of our experiences so we can grow from challenges and achieve our goals.

Welcome! I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families while specializing in treating couples, individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD and adjustment to life transitions.  With a compassionate approach, I use EFT couples therapy to help couples identify negative patterns that may be pushing their bond further apart. We will tailor an agreed upon plan to work on goals of wellness that fit your unique situation.

I have been described as warm, easy to talk to, funny, and down to earth. Nothing surprises or fazes me and I am ready to listen and help. I can help you work through depression, anxiety, past traumas, relationship issues, parenting issues, or other life stressors.

Everyone deserves a counselor who will listen, care, advocate, and support them. My experience has guided me to work a variety of presenting issues that include: substance use/addiction, depressive and anxiety symptoms, ADHD, family dynamics & communications, and stress management (18+)

Limited openings for new couples. If you in a relationship and are struggling or just wanting to build on the positive life you have built together, we will work to address the concerns in your relationship - improving communication, enhancing or restoring intimacy, increasing friendship, having more fun together, repairing past hurts and resolving conflicts more effectively. We will identify the relationship challenges you are facing, their underlying causes and the dreams you each have for your relationship. We can then together change the behaviors and thought patterns that are keeping you from being the couple you want to be.

Hey there! I'm Karla. Do you feel stuck, as if your wheels are spinning and you don't know how to move forward? I work with individuals to determine change they hope to see and develop a client-centered plan about the best path forward to get unstuck. I am passionate about helping people identify problematic thinking patterns we can change to positively impact their moods and behaviors so the wheels aren't relentlessly spinning. I want to help people find hope again.

Relational issues are my focus. We are related to our birth families, our marriage or divorce families, our mates, children, peers, coworkers, and to our addictions and habits. My work connects the dots and helps one to see the where and why of the problem and to learn how to address it in a loving, healthy and healing way. Whether the conflict is between partners, parent and child, siblings or addictions, the goal is to mend the relationship and create positive self esteem. I surface the real issue through insightful and penetrating questions to illuminate the path to clarity and resolution.

Are you feeling hesitant, worried, shut down, or withdrawn? Or perhaps a little low, not quite yourself, & trying to figure out what to do? Are old patterns you've used to manage no longer working? Perhaps I can help. Using a combination of mindful awareness, somatic (body)/nervous system regulation work & Internal Family Systems/parts work, we can explore the different aspects of ourselves & start to move towards the changes we'd like to see. I offer in person services in Brooklyn, NY or worldwide via Zoom video. I offer a free brief phone or video consult to see if we're a good fit: feel free to book yours at www.maximeclarity.com

How much time have you spent avoiding things and feeling tired of engaging in patterns that no longer serve you? Life isn't what you want it to be, but you're unsure where to start? Frequently people put their own needs on the back burner and sacrifice self care. Listen closely to what your heart is telling you and take the steps to invest in yourself and build the life you truly want. Therapy is not always easy, but it is often a very connecting and rewarding experience that fosters the personal growth many of us are seeking.

Together we can do what none of us can do alone. You've been looking for answers and, most of all, hope. I can offer you that hope through clinically proven psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and young adults with behavioral and mental health challenges. From depression to anxiety, to problem behaviors, trauma and autism, the evidence-based treatments I use deliver tangible results that improve lives. My multicultural background and years of experience and leadership come together with compassionate care to help my clients to achieve a new wellness and learn skills they carry with them the rest of their lives.

I am an interactive therapist, practicing for more than 30 years. My preference is to work with couples helping them understand how "old" dynamics, patterns and behaviors impact their current relationship. And, then to coach them to make positive changes. I have worked quite a bit with couples who have experienced infidelity. I also enjoy working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression or other concerns helping them with coping strategies. Further, I have had a lot of experience working with healthcare professionals and first responders.

Serving NY, FL & MA If you've had trauma in your life, a challenging childhood, find yourself struck with anxiety or depression & feel like you need some support, you've come to the right place. I help to guide adults, couples & adult families with somatic, relational, & mindful strategies to help you get at the root of your issues. Folks that I've helped include filmmakers, artists, actors, CEO's/nonprofit executives, Girlboss millennials, tech founders/entrepreneurs, marginalized millennials, couples from the premarital to longstanding marriage stage & more.

Hi! My name is Vielka and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Massachusetts (LMFT). I have been working in the mental health field since 2012. I have experience conducting individual and family therapy, in various settings: in-office, in the home, and online with clients presenting with a broad range and severity of clinical issues. However, I have the most experience working with Autism, depression, anxiety, a wide range of challenges within family relationship/blended families/parenting struggles, teen concerns, as well as personal growth, adjustment issues, and crisis.

My approach is humanistic and existential, addressing both immediate and ultimate concerns of living. If you're feeling stuck and want real change in your life, for conditions such as depression, anxiety or resolving a past trauma, there's no way around taking risks and challenging established behaviors and belief systems. By moving out of your comfort zone, going deep inside yourself and far into the larger global community, I can help you. Using a variety of complementary techniques--you can learn to undo long-standing, maladaptive actions/reactions or negative perceptions that stand in the way of a more rich and meaningful life.
