Welcome! I'm a client-centered, strengths-based therapist with 13 years of experience, licensed in New York, New Jersey and the District of Columbia. I specialize in helping clients manage stress, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and depression. My approach is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where we can build on your strengths and develop effective coping strategies. I emphasize self-awareness, self-compassion, and practical tools for mental and emotional health. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. Thank you for considering me as your therapist. Let's work together towards your growth and healing.

I offer compassionate evidence-based support to help clients navigate life’s challenges and build emotional resilience. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and collaborate with clients to identify unhealthy patterns of behavior, replacing them with healthier more constructive approaches. I also specialize in Grief Counseling and provide a safe space to process loss; honor loved ones’ memories with dignity. I also utilize Sandtray therapy which uses creative, hands-on exploration to access emotions and insights that words alone may not express. I am also trained in the following evidenced-based modalities that help clients become solution-focused on a collaborative effort: Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gottman Method Therapy (couples), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Cognitive Processing Training, Written Exposure Therapy and Strength-Based Therapy. Through these modalities, I aim to foster healing, self-understanding, and personal growth in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for twenty plus years. I am originally from Westchester County, New York and completed my B.S. in Psychology from Marymount College and earned my M.S.W. from New York University. My heritage is that of a multi-cultural background and I am Bi-lingual (English and Spanish). I currently live and practice in Tampa, Florida, where I established Consistent Therapy, LLC in 2011.

Has your life turned upside down with unexpected changes, trauma, depression, grief, or increased anxiety? Are you feeling unheard by family, coworkers, or friends? Do you struggle with creating boundaries or breaking unhealthy relationship patterns? I believe you should not face these life changes alone. Let me walk beside you in your journey and unpack these feelings. Self-love and self-care are real, and if no one has told you it's okay to put yourself first! I am Marita Kershaw, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the States of Virginia, New York, and Pennsylvania. I offer individual, family, and couples telehealth therapy sessions. Currently, I solely offer virtual appointments. As a therapist, I believe in building individuals gradually by offering a safe space as they enter a judgment-free zone. I want to know more about you, and I also want you to know me better. If I seem like a good match, I encourage you to believe that one step further and start your therapy with me.

My name is Eve Buck (she/her/hers), and I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with individuals and couples living in New York and Pennsylvania at my virtual practice. I completed my master’s degree in mental health counseling from Teachers College, Columbia University. My previous training includes working with undergraduate and graduate students at the Fordham University counseling center, as well as community practices where I have worked with culturally diverse clients from all walks of life. I particularly enjoy working with young adults and senior adults and have specialized training in therapy for people who identify as Latinx. It is through the experiences and lessons I have learned along my work and personal journeys that I hope to support your path toward overcoming your personal struggles and finding greater fulfillment. I pride myself on utilizing a multicultural approach to therapy while bringing in teachings and principles of multiple disciplines, drawing mainly from psychodynamic therapy among other evidence-based practices. It is this multidisciplinary approach that I believe best serves clients, allowing space for present-minded problem solving as well as exploration into a client’s past, relationships, and emotional experience. Our work together can be tailored based on your life story and experiences and what you hope to gain from therapy. Everyone’s therapy journey is different. Whether it’s working through trauma or beginning a path towards better self-understanding, I strive to provide an open, non-judgmental, and productive space where people can find relief from distressing symptoms as well as develop a stronger sense of self through insight and reflection. Just like each person is unique, each treatment is different and adapted to who you are and what you need. I recognize the wide breadth of human experience and I bring this knowledge with me to best meet your needs. Life can be difficult and confusing, but as your therapist I will be there to empathize with and support you through it.

Does your mind constantly run? Cannot turn it off? Do you worry yourself to sleep or that you are “going crazy”? Anxiety, worry, and over-thinking are common in today’s fast-paced world, but help is available. Counselors give advice. Unsure about what to do? They’ll tell you. This is comforting, but this is not therapy. In sessions, we explore your mind, how it ticks, and how to focus your time and energy on things that matter to most to you. Unlike other theories which focus on labeling thoughts and feelings as “good” or “bad” and attempting to change them, Mindfulness seeks at relating to them differently.

Hi, I’m Kayla Cunningham! I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and for the past 10 years, I’ve been helping people work through life’s challenges and changes.

Whether you’re navigating stress, anxiety, relationships, big transitions, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to meet you where you’re at and help you find tools and strategies that actually fit your life. I believe the relationship we build is one of the most important parts of counseling. I’ll take the time to get to know you, understand what you’re going through, and adjust my approach to what you need — because there’s no one “right” way to do this.
