Hi! My name is Helen and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I've been in the field for 26 years, and in practice for 5 years. In that time, I've raised 4 kids, three of which are teenagers, and an adult son with high functioning Autism, who is soon to graduate from college. I've worked in various therapeutic settings such as employee assistance, providing on-going clinical services and case management for employees with work performance problems. I've also worked in preventive services, providing brief and extended therapy to children, adolescents, couples, and families, as well as working in a substance abuse outpatient setting, where I provided substance abuse counseling for adolescents and adults. I have a special interest in personality disorders and currently run two online support groups for survivors, as well as Cluster B individuals working on self-awareness and behavior modification. I would describe my approach to therapy as warm, non-judgmental, and empathic. My role is that of a facilitator. Through our sessions my goal is to help you work on the areas of your life that you feel you are struggling with. Outside of social work, I am very involved in fitness. I have been a CrossFitter for 8 years and I am also a weightlifter who follows flexible nutrition. I walk 6 miles a day and it's one of my favorite activities.

My passion and experience have been with individuals struggling with substance use disorder with ages ranging from 18 and above. For the past 6 years, I have been providing individual counseling as well as group counseling and my role has been to help my clients explore and become aware of the underlying issues behind the substance use which include a history of depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal difficulties as well as difficulty handling life challenges.

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.
