Hi! My name is Audrey and I am passionate about supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I’m committed to walking alongside my clients as they work toward healing, growth, and greater self-understanding. I provide a compassionate, collaborative space where individuals can feel safe, supported, and understood. My approach is tailored to each client’s unique needs, with a strong focus on building trust, connection, and a comfortable therapeutic relationship. Together, we’ll work to better understand what you’re going through, build tools, and help you move toward a version of life that feels more manageable and aligned. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, and I truly admire the strength it takes to begin the therapy process.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist specializing in the treatment of addiction and trauma. Much of my work has included working with adolescents, adults and families who are challenged by anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. In addition, I have experience working with the LGTBQ community, life coaching, and eating disorders. Believing you are the expert in your life my hope is to act as a beacon of light on a path that sometimes goes dark. My success in treating clients stems from my approach which is straight forward and solution-focused to help clients move forward rather than staying stuck in their challenge areas. To my future clients: In Harry Potter, Prisoner of Azkaban, Dumbledore says ‘Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. ‘”

I am a Bilingual/Bicultural therapist who takes pride in working with clients of diverse backgrounds. As your therapist my goal is to work with you in a collaborative way, using a culturally humble lens and awareness that "one size does not fit all." In my practice I work with Adolescents and Young Adults in an effort towards identifying solutions that promote growth, healing and life satisfaction through use of the therapeutic relationship. I treat individuals with a range of life struggles including anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and life transitions. Utilizing a collaborative approach and evidence based treatments, I will tailor my technique based on your individual needs. Aspects of mindfulness, trauma-informed and insight-oriented approaches may also be used. I am a compassionate and thoughtful clinician that is committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic space. My goal is to help you find relief through developing an ability to manage and cope with the complexities and challenges one experiences with everyday life.

In my years of experience I have come to realize so much about living in the world robs us of our ability to acknowledge our own magic. Therapy should be a safe place for you to begin to reclaim that magic and learn how to discover your own power. By using a "bottom to top" approach to identify how long held, negative beliefs, have kept you reliving and repeating the past, you can finally live in the present. I provide a safe, non judgemental space for you to work through trauma and reclaim the power inherent in you.

In our practice we provide authentic, inclusive, client-centered care to promote growth in a safe and compassionate environment. Providing a safe supportive space for clients to explore their unique challenges, strengths, and aspirations is essential in the work we do. We are committed to empowering you to find your inner strength and courage to discover a new path towards healing. Life is uncertain, therapy doesn’t have to be!

Depression and anxiety can strike at any age. But understanding the developmental challenges our clients are facing, regardless of what life stage they are in, is fundamental to our approach. College students face an enormous array of stressors as they are learning to live independently, separating from home and family, figure out who they are and what they want to be, establishing or navigating new social groups, starting/searching for/ending significant romantic relationships, managing heavy workloads, or simply dealing with the pressure to excel. We are here to help you navigate these very real stressors, to empathize and to teach you skills to address the depression and/or anxiety these stressors can cause.

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.

As a licensed clinical psychologist in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I am dedicated to providing evidence-based care to adolescents, emerging adults, and adults navigating a variety of challenges. My therapeutic approach focuses on creating a safe, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can feel truly heard and supported. I tailor treatment to meet each person's unique needs, working together with you to foster meaningful, lasting change. I also collaborate with other professionals involved in your care and communicate with family members when you choose to include them in the process. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), two proven approaches that help individuals build practical coping skills, manage emotions, and develop healthier ways of thinking and acting. I also have advanced training in trauma-focused therapies and am certified in Prolonged Exposure Therapy, a specialized treatment for PTSD.

I get that college can be a big life transition and overwhelming at times. I specialize in anxiety and stress and help students who feel stuck in worry, overthinking, panic, or burnout. I can also help with the challenge of new relationships in college and managing old ones as well. I use and teach practical and energetic tools for nervous system regulation so you're not just talking about your stress - you're learning how to manage it in real time. My style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. College is also a time when questions about sexual orientation and gender identity often become more present. I offer an affirming, supportive space to explore whatever is coming up for you - at your own pace. You don't have to navigate transition alone.

You wonder what it may look and feel like to trust and know yourself better, especially with recent life events or transitions, like college and young adulthood! You seek guidance to overcome recurrent self doubt, passive-aggressive, or avoidant behaviors- familiar patterns in your family and past relationships. For the past 18 years, I have provided compassionate, person-centered therapy to adults (college/20's, middle age, and older adults) navigating life transitions, relationship changes and challenges, and mood disorders. Clients appreciate my ability to listen and support them with kindness, cultural understanding, and non-judgment, while offering feedback and resources. Whether you’ve tried therapy before or this is new to you, understanding yourself and being supported through life changes and challenges builds your resilience and confidence! Being a 1st generation Asian American immigrant, parent, spouse, and social worker has shaped my capacity to appreciate and support clients with navigating complex seasons of change.

I specialize in helping adolescents and adults who struggle with or are impaired by depression and other mood disorders, anxiety and adjustment disorders, self esteem issues, grief resulting from loss and post traumatic stress. I will also incorporate use of mindfulness, emotional freedom technique (tapping), breathwork, muscle relaxation and a person centered/strengths based approach.
