VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON
Long Island Therapy & Counseling Rooted in Compassion
Intentional Healing at Your Pace
Haus of Mental Health Counseling is built on extending traditional therapy sessions, we offer focused and extended therapeutic sessions for clients who prefer to work through specific concerns in a more concentrated way to experience productive healing. Our work centers on helping children, adolescents, adults, and couples navigate chronic illness-related stress, intrusive cognitive disorders (OCD), perfectionism, high-functioning burnout, adult children of emotionally immature parents and trauma on Long Island and throughout New York.
When working with children and adolescents, therapy is adapted to their developmental stage and may incorporate creative, structured, and age-appropriate approaches that help young clients express themselves and build emotional skills. We approach therapy through a mind–body lens, recognizing how the nervous system plays an important role in emotional well-being and how past experiences can shape patterns of stress and resilience.
We embody Seneca’s belief that “No man was ever wise by chance.” As a boutique private practice, we honor honest work, curiosity, and intentional healing. You cannot unlearn without learning something new and we provide practical strategies that promote long-term emotional balance and well-being.
Meet Marina Orphanides, LMHC-D
Living and working in the New York area has shaped much of my perspective as a therapist. I’ve seen how the fast pace, high expectations, and constant pressure of city life can contribute to anxiety, burnout, and emotional overwhelm. In a city like New York, people often want more than just a space to talk…they want clarity, insight, and direction. My work focuses on helping clients better understand their nervous system, process difficult experiences, and develop practical tools that support lasting emotional resilience and meaningful change.
