Virtual • New Jersey


Hi, I’m Elena. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have over six years of experience working with adults across the lifespan. I have had the privilege of supporting people during some of their most difficult seasons as well as longer seasons of personal growth. Our work together often focuses on navigating anxiety, depression, executive challenges, grief, relationship challenges, perfectionism, and major life changes. I’m drawn to thoughtful, self-aware adults who are capable in many areas of life yet internally may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or overly self-critical.

Danielle DiGiaimo

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hi, I’m Danielle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I’m passionate about helping people find healing, balance, and growth through life’s challenges.

I earned my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) from Stockton University in 2016 and went on to complete my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Fordham University’s Advanced Standing Clinical Track in 2017. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of individuals and families across many settings including hospice care, services for the unhoused population, psychiatric hospitals, and, in the most recent years, in public schools as part of the Child Study Team writing IEPs and providing counseling.

These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how emotional, environmental, and social factors impact well-being. In my practice, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique story and goals.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or life transitions, I’m here to work alongside you as you build resilience and rediscover your sense of self.

Sally Mendoza

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a deep commitment to helping individuals and families thrive. I have extensive experience supporting diverse communities across various mental health settings and take pride in creating safe, compassionate spaces for healing and growth. Known for being a collaborative team member with strong organizational skills, I bring a background in individual and group counseling, community outreach, case management, advocacy, and crisis intervention.

My approach to therapy is holistic, client-centered, and strengths-based, recognizing the connection between mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. I integrate evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies, while also encouraging self-care, balance, and personal growth beyond the therapy space. I value cultural responsiveness and view each person through a lens of resilience and possibility.

I’m passionate about empowering others to reach their fullest potential through empathy, connection, and effective, evidence-based support.

Hi! My name is Amber Cardemil. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist. I am passionate about working with individuals and families to make treatment a collaborative process. I have experience in providing treatment for eating disorders, food-related concerns and co-occurring conditions. I am a Health at Every Size Healthcare Provider, trained and experienced across all levels of care (inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient treatment). I have worked in various capacities (admission, assessment, individual, family, group therapy) that informs my work with clients. I work together with clients to find the best approach to each case drawing from evidence-based treatments that work. I have great appreciation for the need to understand individual and family psychodynamics and enjoy working with everyone I encounter. I have extensive training in Family Based Treatment for adolescents who struggle with Anorexia Nervosa. I work to empower families to serve as an ally in their loved one’s recovery. I am flexible in my treatment approach and I utilize empirical evidence for treatment effectiveness. I believe in working from a multidisciplinary approach through working closely with other health care providers and caregivers to achieve best treatment outcomes. In addition to treating eating disorders, I am also passionate about working with mental health concerns related to anxiety, depression and life transitions.
