Therapists in New Hartford, NY

Are you at a loss to understand yourself? Maybe you don't understand why you are depressed, anxious, prone to swings of mood, or having difficulty experiencing satisfying relationships. Do you want to suffer less? Like yourself and your life better? I listen, I care, and I help you understand how your experiences, and your thoughts related to those experiences, relate to your suffering (depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood swings, relationship difficulties, poor self-esteem, anger, shame).

Hello there. Finding a counselor can be overwhelming, so I appreciate your presence. Research shows that meaningful change in therapy is grounded in a safe, warm, & accepting relationship.

My hope is to nurture your innate wisdom, so that you may grow, heal, & flourish on your own terms.

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.

If you want to get back to yourself or reach new heights, I know how to help. You may feel that you never reached your true potential, and struggle with managing your life. You may feel that you have lost yourself after going through a traumatic experience. Suffering with anxiety, depression, and feeling at a loss with how to get unstuck. Your marriage or primary relationships have started to suffer. You are ready to find real change. Or maybe you are just hoping to set yourself up for success personally or in your relationships.

Each of us holds within ourselves tremendous potential and an innate knowing of just what we need. I look at many symptoms as a creative, adaptive response to our environment that should be respected as such. Through positive connection with others, we can learn new ways of relating to our bodies, our spirits, and our world. I use a collaborative approach to treatment, with the belief that without your perspective and input, therapy will not be nearly as beneficial.
