Therapists in Chautauqua, NY

My goal as a clinician is to create a safe space where we can work through issues that may be causing you distress, and eventually celebrate your positive growth. I may be a particularly good fit for those seeking support around interpersonal relationships, life transitions, trauma, anxiety or depression. Together, we will explore the patterns in your life that are no longer serving you. I am also a certified perinatal mental health provider and have a special interest in working with folks navigating challenges around parenthood including postpartum depression/anxiety, birth trauma, pregnancy loss and infertility.

As human beings, we find ourselves in "the comfortable and familiar," and sometimes those are not effective in our lives. I believe that regardless of our differences, environments, cultures and trauma histories, we all have the same core needs; safety, belonging, love, validation, attunement and healthy attachments. With attuning to clients and experiencing my own healing journey, I am in awe of the human experience people's resilience. You already know how to cope and survive. If you want transformation and transcendence, join me and let's get to the root of the suffering.

Is life kicking the crap out of you? Are you walking around constantly anticipating the worst-case scenario? Do you feel like you’re just scraping by or living in “survival mode”? Are your relationships suffering because of your mood? Does it feel like a struggle to work, eat, sleep or even function? If any of that resonates with you, counseling can be a proactive step towards resolution. None of us want to simply "get by." I'm here as a well-seasoned guide to help you sort through what is holding you back, break through any pesky old patterns and to get back to living a life that feels a bit more sparkly! Woohoo!

Being human comes with complexities of great loss, love, curiosities and questions. We may reach a point in their experience where they feel like they are not living as their best and most authentic self. This can leave some feeling depressed, anxious, angry and fearful. As well as having ruminating thoughts, social withdrawal and being overwhelmed by it all. While working alongside a therapist, I believe that you can create a healthier and deeper understanding of the self, learn/practice communication skills, and process trauma to navigate and gain depth and perspective on the complexities of life.

Often our deepest wounds have relational origin. Despite our best efforts to create change, we can often feel overwhelmed and defeated amidst the demands of each day. By focusing on developing a healthy relationship between therapist and client, we can create a secure space to understand your concerns more fully. Over time, the hurt and pain can be found and even transformed.

If you’re reading this, you already have the motivation to heal, the insight to know you need a change and the resourcefulness to seek support. You knew enough to get yourself to this page and I know enough to take you through the journey you may be scared of and yet eager for. Working as a specialist in eating disorders and trauma, I understand the highs and lows of being self-critical to the point of self-punishment, blaming yourself for the situation you are in and being stuck in an endless cycle of overriding your gut instinct in order to please others. Recognize that your intuition got you to these words.

Do you ever feel irrelevant or disconnected from others you care about? Do you feel overwhelmed with too much to do, or not involved enough with things you enjoy doing? Do you ever feel isolated or empty? Do you stay in relationships too long or not long enough? Do you have difficulty asking for what you want or what you need? Do you ever feel like you are constantly getting more than you are getting? Do you want to make some changes but feel stuck? "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced". James Baldwin

The human experience can be filled with joy but also suffering, this chapter of your life is causing turmoil but you are resilient.

Therapy can help you increase confidence, empower you to create boundaries and aid in your conscious understanding of the interconnectedness of your mind, body and spirit.

Welcome! I am a licensed therapist with a strong passion for supporting women of all ages in their mental health journey. My specialties include treating depression, anxiety, and addictions, as well as focusing on self-esteem building and navigating life changes. I create a gentle, nurturing space where you can explore your inner world as you work towards healing.

I believe that trauma and adversity effect and change the mind, the body and the spirit, and too often therapy neglects to look deeply enough at all three of these areas. I provide therapy with a holistic approach. We will look at all aspects of your life both past and present and use practical, proven effective treatment. I also believe critical to treatment is feeling accepted and cared for by your provider.

Navigating a toxic divorce and experiencing post separation abuse? Concerned about your children? I'm a licensed master social worker, psychotherapist, high conflict divorce coach, parenting coordinator and divorce/family mediator, with 25+ years of experience. I have trained at Columbia University School of Social Work , The International Trauma Studies Program, The Center for Mediation and Training and The High Conflict Divorce Coach Program.

It can be really challenging to navigate an ever-changing world, especially if we enter each season struggling to carry the weight of the past. We learn survival strategies that are often hard to unlearn, and it can feel like we will always be stuck in our same old patterns of suffering. I offer non-judgmental support to people who want to find more aliveness in their minds and bodies. Through this partnership, we aim to build your capacity to feel and deal with emotions in kind yet effective ways, and develop compassionate habits that can lead to self trust. In doing so, we can create more room for ease, meaning, and joy.

I believe that each person holds within themselves everything they need to heal and grow in the ways they would like. I see the therapist's role as being one in which provides an environment of safety and care where the client can explore themselves authentically. It is through this authentic exploration, that the therapist can help the client discover how patterns and ways of being are keeping the client stuck and resulting in suffering. By bringing into awareness these aspects, the client and therapist can then work collaboratively to release the pain and explore new ways of being.

Life is stressful and distracting enough without putting others needs above your own. But that’s what we tend to do! As a result we are left feeling drained. Relationships are complicated – whether it be with yourself or others. Throughout our lifetime relationships are often the most neglected and yet one of the most important. It is through the relationship with yourself and others that personal growth and change develops. This requires looking inward to discover what you need, want, and desire.
