Sessions are person-centered and eclectic, meaning it is not one-size-fits-all.
Hello! I am the founder and sole practitioner of Alyssa Guido LMHC. I became a therapist because I have a passion for helping people gain a greater understanding of themselves. We all have experiences that we perceive in an individual way and have shaped the manner in which we live our lives. Sometimes these thoughts empower us and sometimes they hold us back. My goal is to help you overcome challenges and become your strongest and happiest self.

I utilize art therapy as a method to offer expression for emotions that are not able to be expressed through words. Connecting my educational background in fine arts as well as psychology I was able to complete my masters in Clinical art therapy and counseling. Professionally and in my personal life I have found that the ability to express ourselves in different ways can bring levity and peace throughout our daily interactions. I also work alongside individuals to manage stress and anxiety.

No one goes through life without facing stressors or hardships, but with the right help, clients can develop and learn the skills they need to deal with these stressors and hardships successfully. As a therapist, my goal is to come into a client’s life and help them do the work to make their lives easier, and their stressors seem more manageable. When a client reaches out for therapy, they are typically wanting to improve some aspect of their life, or make a positive change. It is always my priority to make sure my clients leave treatment feeling as though they are making progress towards a goal.

Life can be unpredictable and overwhelming. Whether it be work, school, a recent loss, or family conflict, it can be tough to navigate alone. The use of creative arts, along with talk therapy and other evidence-based techniques, can help provide you or your child with the tools and coping skills to overcome life's obstacles. Sometimes, words are just not enough to describe how we feel, no matter your age. As a trauma-informed Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, I seek to create a safe space for my clients to engage in self expression, explore unresolved conflict, and gain a greater understanding of identity and autonomy.

Hello! I’m Danyele Ferrara, LMSW, and I’m truly passionate about helping individuals and families find their path to mental wellness. My journey into mental health began after realizing that my previous career wasn’t giving me the fulfillment I craved. I wanted to make a real difference in people’s lives, especially those dealing with mental health issues. I earned my Master of Social Work from Fordham University in 2009. I started my professional journey working with children with severe mental health issues and their families to navigate mental health challenges.

You've taken the first step towards self care and inner growth! This may have been difficult and shows tremendous strength. Glad you're here! Therapy is a wonderful path to help you access inner healing, processing, and expression with the unconditional support of your therapist. My clients are those who recognize that talk therapy alone will not solve their current issues. They are often curious about, or want support to help reduce and manage their current symptoms. Many of my clients struggle with unresolved trauma, anxiety, emotional management and regulation, interpersonal relationships, self-esteem, and identity.
