Maryann Syers is a licensed clinical social worker and therapist with nearly 30 years of experience in private practice. She is dedicated to cultivating a safe and nurturing relational space for her clients, recognizing that the therapeutic relationship is fundamental to the healing process. Maryann believes that this relationship serves not only as the backdrop but also as a vehicle for understanding one's internal world and learning transformative ways of relating to others. Her approach highlights that many challenges arise not solely from current external circumstances, but significantly from learned ways of thinking about and coping with experiences. Maryann specializes in guiding individuals as they explore the roots of their difficulties while providing tools to alleviate, manage, and overcome their unique challenges. She has a particular focus on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, compulsive overeating, sexuality, and relational dynamics. By employing an integrative approach, she draws from various therapeutic modalities, including Trauma Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), EMDR, and Relational Psychotherapy, all aimed at nurturing the wholeness of body, mind, emotions, and spirit.
