Hi! Welcome to Beyond Wellness LLC. My name is Ali Greenfield and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Thank you for visiting my site. Taking the first time to beginning the healing journey through therapy isn’t easy.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I hold strongly in my belief that our relationships with the world around us have a profound impact on who we are. Our relationships with the various systems in our life; work, school, home, the community are all integral parts of our identity. Our well-being can often be equated to the quality of our relationships. As an LMFT, I work to help individuals, families, and couples to improve the quality of their relationships through healthier communication, honesty, and connection.
I have been working as a clinician in the field for 9 years. My experience includes working in several residential treatment centers for young adults and teenagers with mental health challenges, working in the private practice environment, agency work, and school-based. I have run several groups including recovery groups, DBT focused IOP, yoga/mindfulness groups, teen groups, and school-based middle school groups. My areas of expertise including young adults, substance abuse, grief counseling, and mindfulness.
My practice is a compilation of all of the things that I love: therapy, mindfulness, and healing. The goal and mission of Beyond Wellness is to help people strive for a deeper sense of wellness and healing through therapy infused with holistic practices. Beyond Wellness is designed to promote health and wellness through the integration of body, mind, and spirit. I specialize in yoga, therapy, and retreats. Through mindfulness, breathing, yoga, and therapy, the body and mind are limitless.
