Antoinette Bryce, Clinical Social Worker/LCSW Licensed in NY and NC Hello there! My name is Antoinette Bryce, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the mental health and human services field for 13 years. I am a graduate from the Fordham University and currently a lecturer within the Human Behavior field. My passion is “People” and helping them to get to the core of who they are. Starting out as a customer service agent many years ago I have learnt that the “customer is always right.” In keeping this approach, coupling it with a mental health and trauma focused lens, my modality of choice for intervention is from the Humanistic Paradigm- I will meet you where you are at…and then we both work from there. I also include in my practice short-term Solution Focused Intervention and CBT Therapy. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, ADHD, anxiety, work-related concerns including burn-out, parenting problems, religious/spiritual struggles, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, anger management and an extensive background in child welfare. I have also spent all my timeframe as a Human Behavior Specialist working in underserved communities, working closely with underserved clients-specifically members of the black and brown community. Trauma hinders our progress whether the exposure is miniscule, extensive or somewhere in-between. Unless we can identify and understand this impact one cannot start moving towards healing. Let’s start this journey together and explore through appropriate intervention that is designed to meet your needs, a way towards being whole again.

Hello! Thank you for reaching out and allow yourself to explore this therapy journey! My counseling style is warm, caring, and interactive. I create a safe, stigma-free environment where all clients are treated with respect, dignity, and compassion. I work to form a treatment plan in coordination with the client so that we can have the most successful counseling relationship possible. Together we can begin to create a space where they feel seen, heard, and understood. As we discover potential underlying issues, I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy with strength-based approach to help people change their thoughts, feelings, and patterns of behavior to improve their current situation and their work and interpersonal relationships. My goal is for my clients to enjoy the challenges presented during sessions and find the modifications that we devise together are the changes they seek. Many of my clients already have the answers and just need help finding their way to take next steps to realize their transformation. I am completely dedicated to providing my clients with the emotional support and guidance to achieve healthier and happier lives. I look forward to working with you :) Jarely

I am licensed in New York with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I am trained in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, EMDR and my practice also includes interventions from Gestalt, Person-centered, Internal Family Systems, and other therapy approaches. I believe that when addressing fears and anxieties, the most effective approach is to work toward facing those fears a little bit at a time with tenderness, patience, acceptance, and imagination. I often see clients work through their problems and experience relief from symptoms after getting to the bottom of their core fear. In my practice, I also see a lot of individuals with perfectionistic styles, traumatic backgrounds, and self-neglect, that result in procrastination or overwork, burnout, and self-blame. I am here to support and empower you to change these symptoms by shifting to flexible attitudes and beliefs, which frees up room for problem-solving and behavior change.

You can have peace and I am devoted to help you in the process. *At this time I am prioritizing new patient referrals to CHRISTIAN WOMEN. I am Rachel Anauo, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, licensed in the state of New York. I am also Ordained and Licensed as a Christian Minister. I had a dramatic conversion to following Christ in 1996. (Jesus means everything to me!) I am a widow, now over 50, and have experienced hardship in my life too, so I understand that life can be tough at times. I offer a blend where the professional clinical part of counseling and the spiritual growth and encouragement merge. I have special interests helping those in ministry, as well as adult women’s mental health care. I have 10+ years of counseling experience with dual disorders (mental health and substance abuse). Most of my experience has been within non-Christian programs, and this has frustrated me in the past to work with such limitations. I help people working through grief and loss, to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy in relationships. I am comfortable discussing sexual matters. I help those who struggle with anxiety and depression, boundaries, and self-esteem issues. I am glad to help people with a trauma history. And I like to provide education about various things that people are struggling with. I am fully aware that people often self-medicate with drugs and alcohol (and other destructive behaviors) and I am very experienced with helping people who are seeking recovery from this burden, but a higher level of care may be recommended if unlikely to succeed from online counseling. I am learning more about the challenges that women face in relationships in cycles of abuse, including narcissistic abuse dynamics, as this is very damaging to a person's confidence and understanding of what healthy relationships look like. I bring vast personal and professional experience to our work together. I draw upon Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Narrative Counseling techniques for my counseling style. Also, because life can get very heavy, I really enjoy using humor with those I work with when possible. I utilize the messaging feature regularly with those who choose to counsel with me and I check in with my clients often. I encourage all clients to utilize every resource available to them to get them where they want to be in life. I like to provide audio messages to my clients that may include a prayer for them, a Scripture that relates to their current needs, or even a Christian devotional reading that I believe would be helpful to their current life needs if they are agreeable. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
