Our Counselors
Evan Styron
Owner / Clinical Director – LMHC
I validate, connect and transform.
What inspired me to become a psychotherapist? Witnessing the challenges people face in life and being captivated by superheroes as a child. Helping others is my passion—it feels like I’m living my childhood dreams. My experience in state psychiatric centers, working with individuals dealing with severe and persistent mental health issues, solidified my desire to assist those with social and emotional needs.
While working as a school counselor was rewarding, I felt compelled to offer more comprehensive services beyond mental health education workshops. Pursuing clinical therapy was a natural progression for me. I earned my mental health counseling degree at LIU Post and furthered my expertise with certifications and training in CBT, internal family systems, ACT, and logotherapy. These skills enable me to assist clients with reparenting, anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress management, co-parenting, couples counseling, family therapy, and emotional regulation.
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I bring an interactive and down-to-earth approach to therapy. My goal is to equip you with a practical skill set that promotes growth and fulfillment. I look forward to meeting you and helping you live the life you envision!

Christina Abenante
Licensed Mental Health Counselor – LMHC-D
I believe therapy should be a space where you can truly be yourself—without judgment, pressure, or pretense. My goal is to create a comfortable environment where you can show up honestly, even when life feels overwhelming.
For over eight years, I have supported children, teens, and adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. I take time to understand your unique experiences and help you explore your thoughts and emotions. Together, we build practical tools that encourage growth, healing, and lasting change.
I integrate evidence-based therapy practices with a strong focus on connection and trust. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, seen, and understood. I meet you where you are and support you through challenges, relationship concerns, and personal growth.
Clients often describe sessions with me as relaxed and genuine conversations. Over time, they recognize meaningful insights and positive changes throughout the therapeutic process. My hope is that each session leaves you feeling heard, supported, and empowered. I want you to have the tools needed to move forward with confidence and resilience.
