About Us

Change Within Reach was founded in 2015 by Anna Gershelis, Ph.D., LCSW with the goal of providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health services to individuals and families in our community. With a vision of holistic and personalized care, Dr. Gershelis created a welcoming space where clients could explore their challenges and work toward meaningful emotional and psychological well-being. What began as a small private practice has since grown into a thriving clinic.

As the demand for quality care increased, Change Within Reach expanded its services, assembling a team of highly skilled therapists who bring diverse expertise and approaches to support the wide-ranging needs of our clients. Though we’ve grown over the years, the founding mission remains at the heart of Change Within Reach: to empower individuals to find strength and healing, making lasting change truly within reach.

At Change Within Reach, our mission is to provide compassionate, personalized care that empowers individuals to achieve meaningful, lasting change. We believe that healing begins with genuine connection and that every person has the capacity for growth and transformation. Our dedicated team of therapists is committed to creating a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their challenges, build resilience, and realize their potential for emotional well-being. Through evidence-based practices, we strive to make positive change accessible and sustainable for all.

We envision a world where everyone has the tools and support needed to achieve emotional well-being and lead fulfilling lives. At Change Within Reach, we aim to be a beacon of hope and healing, where individuals and families can access high-quality, transformative mental health care. By fostering growth, resilience, and connection, we strive to create a community where change is always within reach and where every person feels empowered to thrive.
