Leonard Ellentuck, LICSW

Therapy

I really believe that as a therapist it is my role to understand you and show I understand you. For us to develop a strong rapport, it is essential that I be able to put myself in your shoes. I have some really good techniques to help you and get you feeling better but you should feel like I get it and if you don't, you should feel safe and comfortable speaking up so we can work through it together. I always strive to provide a safe place for you to explore your feelings and to create the best environment for healing to take place. I'm looking forward to getting to know you.

Efuntomiwa Adedeji, LICSW

Therapy

I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to work with and help preteens to the elderly for over ten years suffering from varying issues ranging from depression, anxiety, PTSD to anger management and family issues, to name a few. These issues often interrupt our daily lives and can feel debilitating. However, when one has a trusting therapeutic relationship with someone who cares, one can work towards a path of freedom. I work closely with clients to explore the underlying issues that lead to current problems. It is my goal to empower each client to not only identify the problem but to help meet their goals.

Shannon Harig-Blaine, LICSW

Therapy

I believe that therapy can help people in different ways depending on where they are in their lives and what they need at the time. Therapy can be general support through a life issue or it can be a deeper process in understanding the connection between past and present stress. In my practice, my main goal is to understand. When we as people feel heard and understood, connection to self and others becomes less stressful. My therapeutic style is eclectic and based on the persons needs. I enjoy my work and can’t imagine doing anything else!
