Hello, my name is Dr. Mo Therese (Maureen) Hannah. I’ve been practicing as a psychotherapist for over 35 years. My therapeutic style could be described as compassionate, empathic, and spiritually- as well as solution-oriented. I’m passionate about helping clients discover their strengths and realize their inherent greatness rather than just focusing on their challenges and deficits. I have devoted my entire lifetime to understanding myself and the nature of the human psyche, as I believe self-understanding and understanding others go hand in hand! I’m privileged to also have served as a psychology professor at Siena College in Loudonville, New York for the past 35 years, where I greatly enjoy teaching courses that are related to my work as a psychotherapist-- courses like Abnormal Psychology, Counseling Theories and Techniques, Trauma and Recovery and Intimate Relationships. My specialty areas include couples/relationship therapy, trauma-informed therapy (I am EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy trained), women’s issues, domestic violence/abuse, and grief therapy.
Hi, I’m Dr. Fabianne Blake, a licensed clinical psychologist in New York and Connecticut. I’ve worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across hospital, intensive outpatient, and private practice settings. I’m especially drawn to helping people better understand themselves, particularly when their experiences have felt confusing, overlooked, or difficult to put into words. My approach is warm, collaborative, and curious, with an emphasis on understanding the whole person rather than reducing someone to a diagnosis or a list of symptoms. My goal is to help you feel comfortable being yourself while we work toward greater clarity, self-understanding, and practical next steps.
Seeking therapy is a personal decision often arrived during a particularly stressful time of life. As a psychotherapist, I strive to provide a warm, accepting environment in which we can openly discuss your concerns and work together toward improving your life. My areas of expertise in therapy include surviving trauma, managing mood problems, life transitions, navigating opportunities and challenges throughout the lifespan, stress management, and interpersonal processes.
Hello there! My name is Shomari M. Harris. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker living in NYC and licensed to work in both NY and Maryland. As an LCSW with more than a decade of experience, I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. While I welcome people from all walks of life, much of my work has centered on communities and experiences that resonate with my own lived experience and personal identity. This includes Black men, helping professionals, creatives, LGBTQ+ and adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and sexual trauma. I understand that many of these experiences are often carried in silence, shaped by expectations, stigma, isolation or the feeling that there is little room to be fully seen and understood.
Hello! I’m Lydia Vazquez, LCSW-R. I’m a native New Yorker, complete with the accent, and I’ve been a social worker for 20 years.
One thing I hope never changes about me as a clinician is my curiosity. Even after two decades in the field, I never want to become the therapist who thinks, “I’ve seen this before.” Because I haven’t seen you before.
I love working with neurodivergent adults who may be navigating autism, ADHD, executive functioning, masking, burnout, emotional regulation, communication, relationships, boundaries, or simply trying to figure out why certain parts of life seem to require so much more energy than everyone says they should.
My style is warm, collaborative, and practical, with plenty of room for humor, reflection, and deeper exploration. I’m interested in what is underneath the behavior, not just the behavior itself.
When I’m not wearing my therapist hat, I’m usually spending time with my favorite kid, who happens to be AuDHD, mastering the art of making a great cup of coffee, and thinking about what I might cook next. Recipe recommendations are enthusiastically accepted.
Both professionally and personally, advocacy has become an important part of who I am. I believe people deserve environments that understand them, not just expectations they are constantly asked to squeeze themselves into.
