As human beings we have to always be ready to grow. Whether at work, or within our relationships and families, living an empowered life without support is difficult, and living a well balanced life is even more so. Dual trained in organizational and clinical psychology, I help my clients gain the skills they need to live purposeful and fulfilled lives. Whether amidst life transitions, in relationship conflict, struggling with mental illness, just working toward goals or overcoming character deficits, I help families, couples and individuals make effective decisions, live fulfilling lives, and thrive within tremendous opportunities.

It takes tremendous courage to seek out help. After taking that brave first step, you should be met with support and unconditional respect. I have been assisting clients as a mental health counselor for more than 20 years. Helping over a thousand individuals move through the darkness of addiction and mental health issues, my unique and innovative approach, concentrating on personal change, aids in developing the internal light and skills needed for growth. I serve as the Program Director at Recovery 112 which provides me with the opportunity to develop holistic programs to identify resources for complicated medical cases.

Finding the right psychiatrist or psychologist can be a daunting task. It is because of this that AMPs philosophy is Finding your balance. What does this mean? It means we take the time to look at our patients from a holistic point of view, and realize they have a life outside the walls of our office. They are not only patients, but mothers, fathers...there are whole humans behind the names of the patients we see, and because of that we take the time to get to know you in order to find the right balance of treatment for you.

Neurofeedback is a non-invasive technology that improves and fine tunes the physical health of the most important organ in the body-the brain. Under DR. Maryna’s careful guidance a customized treatment plan is crafted to address specific areas of the brain in need of improvement. Our clients come to us from all walks of life, from business executives wanting to optimize their performance to someone seeking help with managing anxiety and stress, addiction or inability to have deep restful sleep. They leave being better communicators, more adapt at facing stressful situations, having clarity in thinking and setting goals.

Forty years ago, I was trained as a Holistic Social Worker. I have worked across the America's with all age groups and numerous cultures. It is important to me to offer you person-centered communication to support you strengthening your own motivation to change. No one knows you like you do! There are many healing traditions out there and I will honor you and your choices. My approach to counseling combines cognitive (thought) and somatic (body) techniques. I specialize in working with stress and trauma. We all have different responses to stress and trauma.

I help people go from feeling confused, anxious, and unworthy to clear, confident, and trusting. When this shift occurs, my clients are capable of developing a healthy relationship with themselves, those they love, and live in ways they never imagined possible! While I am a Licensed Therapist, I take more of a coaching approach, empowering you with the education to begin asking new questions, exploring new answers, and developing new ways of living. I’ve enjoyed over 10 years developing science-backed programs that consistently provide those that work with me with the sustainable and transformative changes they've been seeking!

Are you struggling with Mental Health issues and looking for a bit more than only counseling? Do you want to explore the self-regulation capabilities of our brain? You are with the right professional. You should know that our brain has the extraordinary capability of self-regulating through learning conditioning. A visual and sound signal can make our brain correct wrong electrical patterns of functioning, helping not only to better functioning in terms of brain waves but improving mental health symptoms. The changes you need to make in your behavioral life, mood and emotions will be enhanced using Neurofeedback.

My 30 years of sobriety coupled with my education and experience affords me a unique perspective counseling addicts and families. I trained at the Hanley Center and worked as the primary therapist in the men's unit there for 15 years. I left Hanley for private practice and also serve as clinical director of several South Florida drug and alcohol programs. My client-centered practice uses a variety of techniques to develop coping mechanisms, life skills and coaching to help addicts recognize their vulnerabilities, which lead to compulsive and addictive behaviors and the ensuing shame, depression and anxiety.

With a dynamic team approach, our strength lies our professional diversity which allows us to treat even the most complex set of mental health, substance-use, trauma and life-change issues in a comprehensive and integrative manner. Just as no two individuals are the same, neither are two situations, despite obvious similarities. Paying close attention to individual differences, actually listening and respecting what our clients share with us, and creating unique goals and to meet each client's needs and challenges is what we do best. The most common feedback we hear from our clients is "feeling heard and still respected and loved."

Therapy can be a potent means of gaining insight into many individual/family issues. It can provide a safe/non-judgmental environment where one can speak and be heard. Life is ever changing. Therefore, when life changes our natural response is to attempt to maintain control of the situation and sometimes, we get stuck in familiar roles/behaviors that no longer fit our current situation. Therapy work consists of addressing one's thought processes, feelings and behaviors, understanding inner conflicts, finding new/healthier coping skills to deal with and alleviate stress.
