Jennifer Walters

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, and have been providing treatment since 2000. I work with adults with mental health concerns in individual counseling.

My past work experiences are varied, and include a community mental health center, a group private practice, and a private high school. I have also worked in a vocational training center with adults who have developmental disabilities and in a substance abuse facility. These experiences have enabled me to meet and work with people from a variety of backgrounds, giving me a different understanding of what healthy mental health make look like for different people.

I have had training and experience working with many different concerns, including, but not limited to: depression, anxiety, anger, relationship issues, work stress, and parenting concerns. In addition to providing a kind ear, I can assist you in learning relaxation techniques, improving your communication skills, and reducing negative automatic reactions. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out to a stranger, and will fully support you throughout the process.

Leah Booze

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been in clinical practice since 2016.

I have been trained to work with adults psychodynamically, with a focus on relational trauma. The lens in which I practice is rooted in mindful awareness, value interpretation, and a strong focus on building/repairing a positive, self-compassionate perspective as a means to embrace the fullness of you. Building self-compassion is often a process, and I enjoy supporting clients in building this core need.

I will do my best to listen, learn and tailor my approach specifically to your needs as my practice is eclectic in nature.  The past is viewed with empathy and understanding to better live in the present.

Some themes that stand out in my practice involve healthy relationships, attachment, depression, spiritual integration, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, domestic abuse, addiction, grief, postpartum transitions, women’s issues and self-esteem.

I’ve had several years of counseling experience in a community mental health setting, and have education experience as well as leading group therapy on the topic of Healthy Relationships.

Adam Fussaro

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in clinical practice since 2014. My goal is to provide a warm and empathetic space for individuals seeking personal growth and healing. Having personally navigated the challenge of finding the right therapist, I understand the courage and vulnerability it takes to seek help. My goal is to co-create a customized therapeutic space, drawing on diverse modalities to guide our collaborative journey toward healing and personal growth.

Life’s challenges can be overwhelming, affecting thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. In my practice, I offer a safe space where you can share your story, be heard, and validated. Together, we will work to empower you in achieving your dreams and aspirations. As your guide and ally, I am committed to creating a welcoming environment for self-exploration, fostering curiosity about your true desires.

Believing in the strength within each individual, I work collaboratively to define treatment goals and narratives that empower positive change. Life may feel daunting, but you do not have to navigate it alone. If you’re ready for self-discovery and personal growth, I would be honored to support you on this transformative journey. Let’s connect and explore if we are a good fit for your therapeutic experience.

Max Torrente

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been working as a social worker within Philadelphia for over 10 years. During that time, I have focused on individual and group counseling, assessments and community-based services while primarily treating anxiety and depression diagnoses. 

Although reaching out for help can be difficult, I approach this process by offering the appropriate support you need. I believe that having an open and honest therapeutic relationship is one of the steps to helping you achieve your goals. While providing therapy, I utilize a trauma-informed approach, along with aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy. As your therapist, we are in this process together. It is a collaborative approach where your voice is equally important in guiding what you want to accomplish through the therapeutic process.

Let’s work together to accomplish your goals and grow as a person!
