Therapists in Hoosick Falls, NY

For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to the field of clinical social work, accumulating a wealth of experience along the way. With compassion as my compass, I've embarked on the profound journey of guiding individuals towards emotional well-being for 11 impactful years.

I am keenly skilled in helping people to be their truest selves, and to live their lives with more connection, ease, love, creativity, joy, and meaning.

I work with clients who know they need to make a change, but are not sure where to begin. My ideal clients desire to improve their personal and professional lives, but need help with navigating change, coping with grief and loss, building healthy relationships, creating balance, and regaining control of their own lives. It's not always so simple. Some of our problems arise from patterns of behavior stemming from past experiences that we may have forgotten, but our nervous systems have not. Our bodies hold on to pain, but also harness the power to heal. I work with people who are ready to explore and harness that power.

Today’s world can seem overwhelming and exhausting to many of us. Sometimes, even getting out of bed seems like a chore. Anxiety can feel like it has a vice grip on your life. Imagine if you didn’t have to feel this way. It is possible.

The therapies I offer focus on helping to alleviate the negative symptoms that can come with these battles.

As a Mind/Body oriented Therapist, I understand that our emotions, behaviors, and physical body are sensitive to the stressors we face; we can literally FEEL anxiety, depression, and strong emotions. These stressors can affect our whole selves, often manifesting in negative thinking patterns and/or physical sensations of stress. Whether you are having trouble managing stress, and/or experiencing grief, loss, difficult emotions, relationship issues, anxiety/panic, or you feel like you've lost yourself somewhere along the way, working with your mind AND body through integrated psychotherapy, can help.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities were confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

I work with individuals and couples. My practice focuses on supporting new Mom’s and parents. When working with couples, I use The Gottman Method and I have been trained in Level 1 and Level 2. I’ve also had training in EFT and grief/loss. Since I also work with many new Moms and Dads, I am also perinatal trained through PSI and I have also received advanced trainings through The Postpartum Stress Center. I also have a special interest in supporting medical professionals in all levels of their career after starting my career in medical social work and I have had the honor of supporting many since entering private practice.

After you take your first step to begin therapy, I will meet you where you are at this point in your journey. Whether you need a soft, non-judgmental space to find your footing or to gently and compassionately be held accountable for your behavior modification, I am here to help you along your journey. Together, through collaboration, we will develop a tailored, individual therapeutic plan to reach your goals.
