Overwhelmed by life’s challenges and emotions?

Let’s talk.

Hi, I’m Jenny Mariaschin-Rudin. I believe that our worst moments, traits, and traumas do not define us. In therapy, I help you make positive changes through developing insight and coping skills, and improving executive functioning. I partner with you to leverage your strengths to develop the tools you need to regulate, navigate life, and reach your full potential. Together, we explore your unique experiences, thoughts, and emotions so that you can feel more than better; you can feel good.

About My Practice

My Therapy Philosophy

I am a compassionate, neurodiversity affirming therapist who believes that every individual has the ability to discover their strength. The therapeutic relationship can support exploration of your whole self to feel like your better self, even when you are not at your best. Times of crisis can be an opportunity to learn, to reset, to get a fresh start. First, we need to understand what we are going through, to allow ourselves to have feelings, and, when we are ready, take the step towards learning and using skills to feel better. There is not one right path; rather, there are many to choose from, and therapy can empower you to choose yours.

  • Anxiety

    Autism related stress, anxiety, depression

    Behavior disorders in children

    Bipolar disorder*

    Chronic illness related stress

    Depression

    Family and relationship issues

    Infertility

    Job stress

    LGBTQIA+ support

    Life transitions

    Peer conflict

    Self esteem issues

    Social anxiety

    Stress

    Traumatic stress

    Women’s Issues

    *in collaboration with your psychiatry provider

  • Individual therapy

    I work with you individually to assess your past and present concerns, strengths, and goals. We look at all aspects of yourself and your life. If you are on medication, I collaborate with your prescriber to monitor symptoms and side effects, and problem solve issues.

    Parent Coaching and Support

    Whether your child has an emotional or behavioral concern, or you yourself are impacted by mental health issues or have a trauma history, I work with you towards a balanced approach to parenting based on your child’s and family’s needs.

    Holistic, Well Rounded Care

    I collaborate with loved ones, psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and doctors as needed, to provide a well rounded approach focusing on getting you to the place in your life where you can live freely and to your fullest potential.

    Executive Functioning Skills

    With a practical and neurodiversity affirming approach, I provide individual therapy and Executive Functioning Skills workshops to improve your ability to get tasks done.

  • Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

    Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

    Executive Functioning Skills Support & Workshops

    Insight Oriented Therapy

    Medication Management Support*

    Mindfulness based therapy

    Psychodynamic Therapy

    Problem Solving Therapy

    Traditional Talk Therapy

    *in conjunction with your PCP or psychiatrist

  • Individual work

    Stress, depression, and anxiety impact adolescents differently from adults. I draw upon evidence based practices such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings, and develop coping skills for challenges that come up during this time in their lives.

    Establishing A Relationship

    Building rapport, especially with teens, is crucial in creating a safe space where they feel heard, understood, and comfortable. I meet them where they are and establish trust so that therapy feels intimidating and more relatable. When teens feel like they’re not just another case but a unique individual, it can make a big difference in how they engage with the therapeutic process.

    Collaborative Approach

    When appropriate, I work collaboratively with other members of a child's team, including teachers, other types of therapists (occupational, physical, speech), and psychiatrists, and refer to additional supports and resources when needed. I partner with parents and provide different levels of support throughout their child's journey, depending on the developmental stage and need of the individual child or teen.

  • 1-1 Executive Functioning support is available for adolescents and adults. I work with you to improve executive functioning across all domains of life - professional, academic, family, and personal.

    We identify barriers to goal setting and follow-through and develop concrete strategies to improve specific Executive Functioning skills that you need help with. I also address anxiety, depression, and self esteem that result from and contribute to challenges with executive functioning.

    I provide Executive Functioning Workshops to teach fundamental and detailed skills, and provide an accountability and improvement structure for ongoing progress.

  • Therapy is virtual right now.

    To schedule an appointment for a free, confidential 15 minute consultation, please submit the contact form at the bottom of this page, or contact me at (646) 768-8205, or jenny.mr.therapy@gmail.com.

  • Fees will be discussed at time of consultation.

    You may be eligible for reimbursement through the out-of-network benefits of your insurance plan with minimum hassle. Please inquire about your insurance plan's benefits directly with your insurance provider. Specifically, please ask if you have out-of-network benefits for behavioral health/individual outpatient psychotherapy, the cost of your deductible, and percentage rate of reimbursement. I will help you navigate the paperwork to minimize hassle!

Executive Functioning Support: Practical Strategies for Real Results

Having problems with executive functioning can make you feel like you don’t have control over your time and energy. I provide individual and group executive functioning support to help you build the skills you need for:

  • Overcoming procrastination and getting started

  • Decision-making and problem-solving

  • Staying organized

  • Following through on tasks

  • Managing distractions & staying focused

Through a collaborative, structured approach, I assess your unique challenges and work with you to set clear, attainable goals. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-based strategies and problem-solving techniques, I help you identify and overcome barriers to productivity, emotional regulation, and daily task management.

Together, we’ll implement personalized systems and concrete tools designed to support your success in a way that works for you.

πŸ”Ή Organizational Consulting – I help workplaces implement neuroinclusive practices, ensuring that employees with ADHD, Autism, and other neurodivergences receive the support they need to thrive.

🌿 Hello from Jenny Mariaschin-Rudin

Welcome to this issue of my newsletter, back and reformatted after a long hiatus.  Whether you're a current client or a curious reader, thank you for being here.

πŸ’‘ Tip of the Issue: Picture that β€œAhhh - I’m done!” Feeling

When you're avoiding an unpleasant task, pause and picture how you'll feel once it’s done. Notice where that feeling might show up in your body, imagine your expression, and hold onto that relief. A simple word or mantra can help refocus your mind when the task feels especially obnoxious.

πŸͺž Reflection Corner: Neurodiversity in the news

When ADHD or autism make headlines, I often feel a knot in my stomach. Recent coverageβ€”like the NYT’s Have We Been Thinking About ADHD All Wrong? or RFK’s claims about autismβ€”can stir anxiety and confusion. While it’s important to ask questions, neurodiversity is complex, and deserves thoughtful, contextualized, comprehensive, and nuanced understanding.

Sensational or irresponsible media can cause real harm and gaslighting, fueling doubt or forcing neurodivergent people to defend their experiencesβ€”even to providers or loved ones. Instead, we need to ground ourselves in science, therapeutic support, and our own lived truths.
