LAURA BALDWIN O’KEEFE, MSW, LCSWPsychotherapyWestchester County, NY(914) 232-7272therapy@LauraOKeefe.comwww.LauraOKeefe.comAttending to our emotional health is vital for our overall well being. Good mental health strengthens and supports our ability to create effective relationships, make good decisions, handle the ups and downs of life, and reach our full potential. Many research studies have shown that when people receive appropriate mental health care, their use of medical services declines and they feel better. Using an integrated approach I compassionately help people to gain insight, make better choices, and overcome obstacles. I have over twenty years of experience in the mental health field, working exclusively with adults. Some of my clinical experience includes eight years at New York Hospital-Cornell (inpatient treatment of personality and mood disorders), individual and family therapy at outpatient treatment centers in Manhattan and the Bronx, group facilitation at Bedford Prison, and home support services for the elderly through JCC Westchester.

ROBIN C. GOLDSTEIN, PH.D., LICENSED PSYCHOLOGISTBody-centered PsychotherapyUpper West Side, NYC(917) 327-5783www.RobinCGoldstein.comAs a psychotherapist my focus is you and providing a safe and uniquely contained space where you can achieve healing and emotional wellness through active mind/body psychotherapy. Together we will explore your concerns and set goals. Utilizing a variety of contemporary approaches there is the potential for you, not only to solve pressing current problems but also to experience healing and transformative change. I start from the premise that the whole person needs to be addressed by engaging conflicts cognitively, emotionally and physically. I believe that problems of the mind are revealed and expressed in the body. Therefore, therapy utilizes and engages both your verbal expressions and your body’s expressions. Work with the body offers a chance to become aware of your emotional issues on a tangible body level to facilitate change, integrating how you feel on the inside and look on the outside. For patients who have out-of-network coverage with mental health coverage, your insurance company should reimburse you for my services. I am in the process to become an OSCAR network provider, please check when you call.

ELLEN GOLDBERGMaster Palmist, Tarot Reader, Astrologer(212) 924-5816ellengoldberg@nyc.rr.comwww.SchoolofOracles.comwww.WiseWomanTherapist.comPalmistry, Astrology and Tarot are some of the best tools for guidance that life has given to us. A reading can quickly offer you a deeper understanding of yourself and your life. It opens up the places where you have been stuck, confused or troubled. Mystics call the palm “God’s Road Map”, but we could also say that the hand was a Map of the Brain. The lines and shapes in the palm are formed by the subconscious mind, and change as you change. The Tarot is a living Oracle; it enables us to communicate with levels of consciousness not normally available to the conscious mind. Many say that it is the Higher Self speaking through the cards. Astrology shows the blueprint the soul came in with. I mix and match these arts to create a reading that will increase clarity and help you find fulfillment. I am a psychotherapist and mystic with keen intuition and an excellent ability to synthesize information. I have been working with eastern and western mystic arts for over 40 years. It is my joy to read for people. I have been on the faculty of the New York Open Center since 1986 teaching Tarot and the Hermetic Tradition. I am also the founder and director of The School of Oracles which offers in-depth professional trainings in Tarot and Palmistry. Please feel free to visit my School of Oracles website where I have posted over 100 free videos – mini lessons in Tarot and Palmistry. I am available for readings at my home in Manhattan’s West Village, or via Skype or phone. I will gladly record your reading for future listening. You are welcome to phone or email me with any questions about my work. I am also available to read at special occasions, and parties. Individual readings cost $175 per hour, $260 for one and a half hours.

CATHARINE DELONG, M-THANServing Palliative Patients With Music(801) 580-0388 delongharp@gmail.com www.DelongHarp.com The focus of my work as a music-thanatology is to serve the dying and their loved ones with voice and harp, delivering prescriptive music to alleviate physical pain, and emotional or spiritual suffering.
