Hello! My name is Christine Colucci. I am a Licensed Health Counselor with over 18 years experience. I graduated with a Master’s degree from Sage Graduate School and have worked in a variety of mental health settings including a social work department in a nursing home.

My counseling approach is warm and interactive. I believe in treating an individual with respect, sensitivity and compassion. My counseling style combines a few approaches including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy and Positive Psychology but importantly it is a client centered approach. I am passionate about helping others feel good about themselves and effectively managing through life’s issues thrown at you to lead to a purpose in life, fulfillment and joy.

This means that I work with you side by side, help guide you to understand where you are in the process of change, motivate you towards the next stage, assist you in the process and move at the pace you set. A client’s progression in therapy is often dictated by the level of engagement that they have and willingness to make progress. I will always have open and honest communication with clients as well as empathy and support. Let’s make the first step together! I look forward to working with you!

Hey, I'm Victor! I am a strength-based, solution-focused clinical social worker, experienced working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I have worked with diverse populations including people affected by substance use, survivors of domestic violence, children and families involved with the child welfare system (including juvenile justice), adults involved in the criminal justice system, LGBT youth and adults, and unstably housed adults. My work with these different populations included anger management, parenting training, developing cognitive and behavioral skills for depression and anxiety, trauma focused counseling, relapse prevention, and resolving family problems. Coming from a strengths based perspective, I primarily utilized a solution-focused approach to my work. Talking about the problems can feeling relieving, but I believe focusing on our resiliency and strengths to find solutions to our problems is equally important. I also utilized the cognitive behavioral approach because problems can cause negative thinking and developing adaptive strategies to manage distress. Entering counseling is not an easy process – I know! But like our physical health, our mental health must be stable if we are to reach self-actualization and our fullest potential. While we do the work necessary for you to grow and heal, I offer a supportive space to you to speak your truth. I prioritize your concerns for each session with a goal of giving you the tools to move forward.

My name is Margaret Sicari, but please call me Peggy. I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in the state of New York where I have been practicing for over 25 years. I've been a therapist in private practice, a clinician in an agency, a social worker in a high school, a clinical supervisor and Director in a program. I have worked with individuals, couples, families and groups. My experience in a variety of settings and positions have resulted in me working with a diversity of people with a diversity of life challenges. The most common issues clients present are anxiety and depression, relationship problems, emotional abuse, childhood trauma, damaged self-esteem and poor coping skills. I have also worked extensively with individuals and families struggling with substance use disorders, intervening to assist clients in achieving and sustaining recovery and supporting the family members impacted by the disease including ACOA's (Adult Children of Alcoholics and other addictions). Counseling is an interactive and collaborative process. What we focus on and how we focus on it is determined by us discussing and agreeing on the plan for achieving your goals. Making you feel comfortable and building a trusting relationship is essential to your success and a top priority for me as we begin our work together. I am here to assist in broadening your understanding of yourself and your situation; building on your strengths and adding new tools to your coping skills; and finding the best path for resolving your current life challenges. You have take the first difficulty step and reached out for help. I look forward to being the person who take the next one with you.
