Alisia Ives at Status Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
What you want to achieve is our goal. I am attentive and straightforward, as well as caring. In twenty years of practice, I am grateful that many clients have told me that our work together was really helpful. Some return as needed, often for a shorter period when something new comes up they want help to handle.
When we meet, you will tell me a bit about your life, what is causing dis-ease in your life, and how you want your life to be. We will brainstorm together about how you can begin working toward that goal. This means regardless of which treatment modality (therapy style) is used, I am aware and attending to your vocalized goals, your patterns of behavior, your feelings in relationships - including the one with yourself - and much more.
It is true that we are affected by our experiences and upbringing and that may or may not be affecting you in the present. There is much that goes into satisfying daily life: self-discipline, self-awareness, boundaries, how you talk to yourself and others, your relationships, money and work.
I am happy to talk with you on the phone for a few minutes. The cost of an appointment is listed with payment. If you would like to come in and financial circumstances are such that the regular cost makes therapy out of reach, I take on some clients at a lower rate. Please don't hesitate to ask if you are in need this way.

Resilience Therapy Group
Therapist, LCSW, LMHC, LMSW, MHC-LP, PMH-C
You're the one who holds a lot together, at work, at home, for the people who count on you. Underneath that, something has been asking for attention: the anxiety that won't quiet down, the patterns that keep repeating, the grief or the history you've never had room to feel. At Resilience Therapy, a group psychotherapy practice with offices in Manhattan and Port Washington and online therapy across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and several other states, you don't have to sort it out alone. Our clinicians bring real range, from anxiety, trauma, and OCD to addiction, relationships, depression, and life transitions, so the care you get actually fits the life you're living.
Because we're a team rather than a single therapist, we can match you with the clinician who truly fits what you're navigating, whether that's an evidence-based approach like CBT or EMDR, family and couples work, or a warm, depth-oriented space to understand yourself more honestly. Our therapists work with individuals, couples, families, teens, and adults, and some also offer sessions in additional languages such as Russian, French, and Spanish. Reaching out is often the hardest part, so let's take that first step together and find the right person for you.

Congruent Relationships Counseling & Wellness
Counselor/Therapist
At Congruent Relationships, we believe that the most exhausting part of life shouldn't be the effort it takes to be "you."
We often move through the world wearing masks—performing for our partners, our families, or our jobs—while our internal reality feels disconnected and unseen. Our practice was founded on a simple but profound principle: congruence. It is the state where your thoughts, feelings, and actions finally align. When that harmony exists, the relationship you have with yourself transforms, and in turn, your relationships with everyone else begin to thrive.
We aren't a "one size fits all" practice. We are a specialized collective of clinicians who believe that therapy is a collaborative, systemic journey.
Here is why clients choose us:
Relationship Experts at Heart: Led by Dr. Nick Summa, our team specializes in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). We don’t just look at individual symptoms; we look at the patterns of connection that shape your life.
A Sanctuary for the LGBTQ+ Community: We are deeply committed to providing identity-affirming care. Whether you are navigating a transition, exploring poly/ENM dynamics, or seeking a space where your identity is celebrated rather than explained, you belong here.
Authenticity: We’ve traded the "blank slate" therapist persona for genuine human connection. Our clinicians show up as their authentic selves so that you feel safe enough to do the same.
Accessible Expertise: With physical offices in Pittsburgh and a robust online therapy platform, we bridge the gap between high-level clinical expertise and the convenience your modern life requires.
We know that finding a therapist can feel like a daunting task. That’s why we offer a free 15-minute consultation. It’s a low-pressure way to see if our energy matches yours and to ensure you feel a sense of "congruence" from the very first hello.
You deserve to live a life that feels honest. Let’s build it together.

Narrative
Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you! My practice is geared towards gen Z and millennial clients who struggle with anxiety, worry, perfectionism, and ADHD. My clients are often college students, graduate students, or are early in their careers as high-powered professionals. I have experience working with physicians and other medical professionals, engineers, high-stress business professionals, and lawyers. Often my clients over-schedule, over-optimize, and feel like they are working so hard to keep things in order in their lives. To other people, it may appear that you have it all together, but they don't see your internal struggle, your sense of overwhelm, and your hope that you will finally get a grasp on things tomorrow. Often my clients rely on achievement and external forms of validation and praise to feel like they are doing enough. They struggle to internally approve of themselves and their efforts. In therapy, I help my clients to cultivate self-compassion, re-evaluate and replace unhealthy personal standards, and increase attention to their own internal wants, needs, and opinions. Therapy is an opportunity to cultivate your own internal sense of knowing and increase your sense of agency in your own life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!
