When you’re in the thick of it – work, kids, stress, relationships, grief, all of it – sometimes what you really need is someone who will sit with you, see you, and help you figure out what’s next. Not someone who rushes to label you. Not someone who nods silently while you unravel. Someone who gets it. Someone who’s lived enough life to understand that healing is about finding peace, one piece at a time. That’s why Counseling with Compassion was founded.

Are you looking for a supportive, safe space to process and share your concerns related to you or your child? Have you or your child tried to push through depression, codependency, low self-esteem, anxiety, or weak interpersonal relationships for a long time?

I know the feelings of loneliness, hopelessness, and being misunderstood and I know the value of having had a support system of those who believe in me when life gets hard.

MY BACKGROUND In addition to receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology at CUNY Queens College and Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at LIU Post, I am a Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC). I am fluent in Spanish and English. I am excited to use my knowledge and skills to help children, teens, and adults who might be more comfortable with therapy in Spanish, through individual/group settings. While earning my Master’s degree, my interest in mental health and the counseling field grew. I couldn’t wait till the day that I would finally be able to do what I’ve wanted to do since I was a child. Upon graduating, I was an intern for a pediatric clinical psychologist. Being able to see the work and gaining some hands-on experience opened new doors for me and showed me an additional side of helping people. From there, I moved on to a clinic that specializes in treating those who suffer from addiction/substance use disorder which gave me the opportunity to use my counseling skills differently. I was able to meet each person as soon as they began their recovery journey, as I conducted their initial assessments and guided them in their recovery journey by helping them meet their individualized goals through individual and group sessions. The experience of being in the counseling field has been one of a kind, especially as a health care worker through the COVID-19 pandemic. All things are possible due to my strong commitment and interest in helping the community. MY APPROACH My goal is to empower my clients, as I wholeheartedly believe in the ability to change while learning to be gentle with oneself. Please allow me the opportunity to join you and your family on this journey to overcome obstacles and embrace accomplishments. An inner sense of peace may feel far from reach for you or your child, but I promise it’s available to your family. Are you ready? You’ve made it this far, now just reach out! If you would like to contact me or make an appointment, please email me at stephanie@trianglecognitivetherapy.com or call me at 516-208-3792 ext 29.

In life, we all experience challenges. Sometimes, we just need extra support and someone to guide us through it all. If you are experiencing anxiety, fears, anger, depression, loss of a loved one, life stressors...therapy can be the next step in your life to help you heal and grow. My name is Maria Conte. I'm here to provide you with the empathy, guidance, and validation that you're seeking for. I allow you the freedom and safe space to have a "voice" to express your inner thoughts and feelings. I believe that you have the power and ability to create the positive choices and meaning that you want in your life.

When people ask me what therapy is, I like to explain it is like running to a “Taima” - the Venezuelan word for the "home base" in the game of tag: that safe zone where no one can tag you out, where you catch your breath and recoup. It’s also where you could go to find perspective - to collect and steady yourself before jumping back in the game. My practice, Taima Psychotherapy, is a space you can go to when you need to slow down, explore how you feel, find support, recover, and strategize. I specialize in the treatment of issues related to chronic stress and trauma, and have a special interest on issues related to immigration. I also have experience working with mood and anxiety disorders; and supporting clients through life transitions, grief, relationship difficulties and identity development. I approach treatment in an integrative way, taking into account a client’s specific needs, background and culture. With my clients, I co-plan science-backed strategies to work towards measurable improvements in wellbeing. You may visit my website www.taimapsych.com for more information. Schedule a consultation if Taima feels like the right home base for you.

I love meeting people, exploring how they define their goals, and then working together to achieve it. The beauty in being human is that we can have similar stories or feelings and yet still be so unique in our behavior and perception. I look forward to getting to know you so we can make long lasting positive changes. I have an eclectic client-centered approach where I utilize evidence-based treatments to help my clients experience relief, peace, and success. As we put the pieces of the puzzle together, it only encourages growth and insight. We all come to this point with a set of different experiences and genetic wiring. As we explore those experiences that influence who you are, we create an individualized treatment plan that empowers you to succeed. I offer a free phone consultation so that we can determine if we are a good fit to work together or refer you so as to find the best path for your goals.
