Have you or family members been faced with obstacles that have caused you to lose hope and courage? You may be feeling uninspired and do not believe you have the capability to be optimistic and patient. Perhaps there are internal battles to get through the day without breaking down. When working with a therapist that is "the right fit" in an environment that is "safe and supportive" I believe you can develop the physical and emotional strength to work through your struggles. In an interactive/ collaborative way we will work to make positive changes to improve your life and relationships. ​ My specialities and practice focus include, but are not limited to, eating disorders/ body image issues, self-esteem struggles, infertility issues, postpartum/general depression and anxiety, mothering/parenting struggles, and relationship/family issues. I also provide supervision for students and other professionals earning higher licensing credentials. ​ I favor an empathic and supportive approach which integrates psychodynamic and psychoanalytic techniques to help clients reduce symptoms and explore/understand the underlying issues of their current life struggles. Short or long-term therapy via an office setting, phone sessions, video chat sessions and/or at-home counseling is available.

Welcome! College is supposed to be one of the most exciting times of your life, but it can also be overwhelming. I'm here to offer you a safe space where we can explore some of the challenges you may be facing, be it anxiety from academic pressure and social expectations or the stressful transition from living at home to now having to adjust to a brand new environment. There are many transitions that you may be facing at this stage of your life, and I'm here to tell you that ,"It's okay if you're feeling a bit lost and just need someone to listen." You don't have to carry all these feelings alone. Therapy can be like meeting a good friend for coffee. I offer a warm, inviting space where you can receive the support you need to help you navigate all these changes.

I focus on providing clinical support to clients who would like to achieve higher potential in their life, career, sports and overall life balance. Sometimes people feel stuck in old patterns of behavior and weighed down by previous negative experiences. I utilize several psychotherapeutic modalities that are based on individual needs and goals; allowing clients to move forward in a more positive and fulfilling way. I incorporate nutrition and active life style, if needed, to provide the best results for clients. I believe in holistic integration of mind and body to provide the healing strategies to overcome depression, anxiety, past trauma, mood lability, addiction and difficult life transitions. I also assist athletes with providing them with mental tools to perform at their highest level or coming back from their sport-related injuries.

Welcome! Today is a really big day for you. You have made a decision to make a change in your life for the better. You are to be congratulated and supported for this. I bet it wasn't easy getting here. Making these changes can get very complicated along the way. Are you ready to take the necessary steps to be the change you are looking for? Do you want to exceed your own expectations in your life? Are you focused, humble and willing to consider the thoughtful input of others in order to achieve your goals? If your answer is "yes" to these questions - then let's begin! One thing to consider... nothing changes if nothing changes. The way we live our lives is completely based on the way we perceive it. This statement is the bedrock foundation of my counseling practice. With each area of assistance I offer, the rewards of mindfulness, empowerment and ultimately self-realization are the goals to be pursued. Everything we do in our life IS a choice. We can choose to be empowered or not.

Young adulthood is a time of transitions, growth and self discovery. While many new challenges can be exciting, this time of exploration can also become overwhelming. There can be a lot of “shoulds”, comparisons and uncertainty. My office is a safe space to process through all of these thoughts and feelings without feeling judged or criticized. Together we work to figure out a path to help you build the necessary skills and insights to launch into the adult life you are seeking. I love working with young adults and college students to help them embrace this season of their life. As a Registered Yoga Teacher I value the connection between the mind and body and what stress does to our overall well being. With that being said- if yoga/meditation/mindfulness is not your thing it does not need to be involved in your treatment. I always work to creatively match the evidenced based treatment modalities I am trained in to fit a client’s unique goals and strengths. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at 585-432-0717 or through email at maryvanvoorhislcsw@gmail.com to learn more about my practice or to set up a brief initial call to see if my practice might be a good fit for you.
