Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
What makes my practice unique is the way I integrate evidence-based care with a deeply collaborative, person-centered approach. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel safe enough to be fully themselves, understood without judgment, and supported in a way that honors their autonomy, values, and lived experience.
I work from a place of curiosity, respect, and cultural sensitivity. I always meeting clients where they are and moving at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor therapy using various modalities to fit each person’s needs, goals, and emotional experiences.
Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to navigate what they are going through. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you better understand yourself, your patterns, and your emotional world so that you can begin responding to life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
I also prioritize accessibility and convenience by offering fully virtual therapy, allowing you to access care from the comfort and privacy of your own space. With flexible scheduling, therapy can be integrated into your life in a way that feels realistic and supportive rather than overwhelming.
If you are looking for a therapeutic space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin creating meaningful change that aligns with who you are and what matters to you, I would be honored to work with you.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe therapy is most meaningful when it helps people develop a deeper understanding of themselves while creating practical change in their everyday lives. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, feeling stuck in a difficult transition, or trying to change patterns that have been affecting your relationships or well-being, therapy can offer a space to slow down, gain perspective, and move forward with greater clarity.
As a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 20 years of experience, I work with adolescents, adults, and families. My background includes inpatient and outpatient care, emergency settings, and university counseling environments. These experiences have shaped my belief that effective therapy requires both a thoughtful understanding of each person’s individual circumstances and a willingness to adapt treatment to their specific needs.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based treatment. I integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies with Internal Family Systems and other therapeutic approaches when appropriate. I am interested not only in helping clients manage symptoms, but also in understanding the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and experiences that contribute to their difficulties. Together, we identify meaningful goals and develop strategies that support lasting growth.
I have particular experience working with anxiety, panic, OCD, insomnia, depression, trauma, grief, self-image concerns, and major life transitions. I also work with parents and families who are navigating challenges in communication, relationships, and emotional well-being.
I recognize that beginning therapy can feel unfamiliar or difficult, and finding the right therapist matters. My goal is to create an environment in which you feel respected, understood, and comfortable being honest. I see therapy as a partnership, one in which we work together to help you feel more capable, connected, and engaged in your life.

Embrace Psychotherapy, LCSW, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My name is Elaine Hernandez-Cordova, but my friends all call me Elena! I am an Omnistic, bi-sexual, Latin-American psychotherapist, life coach and author. For the last 20 years, I have dedicated my life to practicing a holistic approach to lifestyle adjustments for myself, my family and the systems we all reside in. I like to consider all of humanity to be my family, and I try to reflect this in my work.
I was born in an impoverished part of Brooklyn, NY where I was adopted by a prominent lawyer and his wife who couldn’t bear children due to an early battle with cancer. This inspired my natural inclination to bond with people, both personally and professionally, and maintain meaningful connections. Seeing how imbalanced our society was, and eager to be the change I wanted to see in the world, I studied for a Master of Social Work from the School of Public Health at the University of Central Florida in 2003. I became increasingly interested in the mind-body connection, and so I became a yoga therapist in 2013 through the Long Island Yoga School.
I provide therapeutic services in relation to addiction and post-traumatic stress pro-bono at local hospitals and community centers. My personal experiences and professional expertise in mental health and substance use afford me powerful insight into the healing practices of the dually diagnosed. I am a proud social advocate, and regularly devote time to visit with veterans, inmates, consumers and the underserved. I encourage people to take time to write letters, make phone calls, sign petitions, send emails and donate to causes that matter to the unique values of the individual. Don’t be afraid of being a voice in the community of your choice. If you don’t stand for something then you will fall for anything!
