Farzana Rahman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
Having worked for a decade, I have supported clients through the nuanced and demanding areas of interpersonal stress, major life transitions, identity exploration, and the long-lasting impact of early adverse childhood experiences. I hold particular care and awareness towards the cultural, relational, and systemic forces that shape a person’s sense of self. I feel especially attuned to how family histories and early attachments influence adult relationships, therefore, I often invite clients to explore identity, unlearn old narratives, and build relationships that feel grounded and authentic. My unique, yet collective experiences as a child of immigrant parents and a South Asian woman allow me to recognize how family expectations, cultural identity, gender identity, and other parts of ourselves are important in the therapy work.

Jon Prezant
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MA, CST
I came to this work through a longstanding interest in how people make meaning of their inner lives - the stories they inherit, the ones they tell themselves, and the gap between who they think they're supposed to be and who they actually are. I work with individuals and couples. My approach is direct, warm, and honest. I take your experience seriously, sit with what's difficult, and work with you toward something that actually fits your life. Whether you're navigating a sexual concern, a relationship rupture, a life transition, or something harder to name, my job is to help you understand yourself more clearly and move through your life with more freedom.

Karen Bisignano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
After trauma, healing begins with understanding your experience. Trauma isn't just the event; it's the inability to make sense of what happened, often leaving you stuck in repetitive, unhealthy relationships. Whether or not you recognize childhood abuse or neglect, its effects show up subtly. You found a way to survive an absent, rigid, or abusive dynamic, but everyday life can still trigger those old wounds. You might feel a loss of control, carry deep self-doubt, or constantly put others first to your own detriment. If you are wondering how to help yourself and take the next step, you do not have to navigate this alone.
It takes immense courage to seek therapy when carrying trauma or pain. You do not have to carry it alone anymore. In our sessions—using EMDR with other modalities, we will work as a collaborative team at a pace that feels entirely safe for you. You are always the driver here. Together, we will build the lasting tools you need to reclaim your life.
I know how scary reaching out is—I've been in your shoes. Years ago, navigating trauma, divorce, and family hardships, I resisted restarting therapy. But taking that leap helped me rebuild an empowered version of myself. You deserve to feel lighter and in control again, too. Contact me today and lets see if we're a good fit.
