Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
I help my clients feel better about themselves and deal more effectively with the people in their lives. Do you sometimes wonder how to get your partner or children to understand you? Are you feeling frustrated and don't know who to talk with? Do you want to increase your effectiveness with others?
It is so very important to be known and understood by the people that you care about the most. Your relationships have the potential to be a place where you can bring more joy and happiness into your life. My approach to therapy is to facilitate successful communication and cooperation resulting in increased closeness and affection. Our work together can help you learn about the patterns of relating to each other, where you get stuck, how to better understand each other and how to resolve your differences respectfully. Once you understand and learn effective strategies and develop key skills, you have the capacity to create a close loving relationship no matter what your past history or current situation.
Symptoms such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, illness, infertility, infidelity, isolation, loneliness, and low self- esteem can contribute to personal and relationship problems.
-If you and your partner argue and fight more than you'd like to...
-If you are in an "OK" relationship but you secretly long for more...
-If you would like help resolving a current challenge or long standing difficulties, I welcome your call or email and I would like to hear your story.

Michelle Hoffman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
So many teenagers are struggling with mental health these days, what can the rest of the family do to not only support the teen but keep themselves moving forward? My goal is a whole family that reflects the values and goals of every member. I work a lot with families who have kids who have multiples challenges, have experienced trauma, who may be immersed in school refusal, and/or may be considered for a residential placement.

Maryellen Newman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
In our work together I would take a blended therapeutic approach and individualize treatment based on your personal needs, strengths, and goals. My professional journey is deeply rooted in a commitment to fostering healing and resilience in the lives of individuals facing emotional challenges. I have worked for over 15 years with children, adolescents, teens, and adults who feel overwhelmed with worry, stress, and trauma. Their progress and bravery has inspired me to narrow my focus to deliver the highest quality care with empathy and thoughtfulness. My focus has been dialectical behavior therapy, treating anxiety with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness, helping clients find a life worth living beyond their depression, combining behavioral interventions with cognitive strategies, and helping clients take control of their lives by actively making changes. Our past experiences contribute to who we are today but do not have to control our future.
