Therapists in Phelps, NY

Hello, I'd like to introduce myself. I am Sarah Gwen. I go by Sarah or Gwen. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Master Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), and I am almost ready to apply to be a Certified Sex Therapist (CST). I really enjoy learning, helping, connecting, and facing challenges. I also love animals, music, nature, tattoos,and food. I am Native Hawaiian, raised in San Diego. I have been here in the Finger Lakes for 13 years. I am a mother of three, ranging from 25 to 11 yrs. I consider myself warm, casual and intelligent. I would love to meet and see if I can help. No pressure.

Are you struggling with a mental health issue? Do you lack motivation, focus, and direction? Are you overwhelmed with life stressors and emotions? Are you living in the past, stuck, and unable to move forward? Do you use alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex or gaming to “cope” with life stressors? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you would benefit from counseling with an objective, nonjudgmental, and supportive therapist. Let me be that therapist for you. Life can be hard, stressful, and challenging but you do not have to navigate this trip alone.

OFFERING ONLINE VIDEO & PHONE APPTS., & I AM TAKING NEW CLIENTS! I am a Clinical Psychotherapist & Social Work Practitioner with 9 yrs. of experience (academic & professional). I consistently find unique solutions for the issues my clients face and I am fully knowledgeable of the current thinking on human service conduct and practice. I am committed to a person-centered, systemic approach that promotes independence and well-being for those under my care. I am direct, authentic, compassionate, creative, and simple in my approach. I like to go deep in my collaborative work with my clients, yet I don't take myself too seriously.

I am here to walk alongside you on your journey toward a healthier self and relationships. I have years of experience as a licensed counselor in inpatient and private practice settings in Arizona, and I am now practicing in New York.

Welcome and thank you for considering our practice in your journey toward wellness. Choosing to start therapy is an important step, and we believe that finding the right therapist for you is essential in this process. Our hope is that you feel welcomed, valued, and safe to explore yourself in our calm and nurturing environment.

My client focus is working with those who hope to repair relationships past or present, have a desire to uncover past trauma and a curiosity or willingness to be open about life shaping experiences throughout their childhood and early adolescence. I aim to support clients who wish to bring their authentic self to the space, hone their inner strength, and wish to be a more confident version of themselves. Goals may include but are not limited to; cultivate strong and positive relationships, increase self-esteem and self-worth, find inner strength and power, as well as discover new life passions through the creative arts therapies.

I have experience working with adults, children, couples, families and groups and treating a variety of diagnoses including anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, ADHD, PTSD, grief, eating disorders, OCD, self injury, mood disorders, personality disorders, and substance abuse. I often use mindfulness techniques, creative arts therapy, DBT and CBT to help clients find balance and joy.

I work to foster wellness and growth in each individual to allow them to live the life they have chosen as fully as possible. I believe that the individual in counseling is the expert in their life and my role is to help support and guide them to make decisions, make positive changes, increase their coping skills and improve their emotional wellness and quality of life. I have experience working with individuals who have complex needs and challenges and work to utilize their strengths and resources to meet their goals.

As a 40-something with 15+ years of clinical experience in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have found that life is a journey of learning filled with twists and turns, many of which are beyond our power and control. It seems that when we are faced with the choices that naturally proceed from this journey, often we choose something not because it aligns with our highest value, but because it protects our unspoken vulnerabilities. If our greatest loyalty lies with our greatest fear or pain, then that fear or pain holds the potential to be either the cage that imprisons us or the opportunity that grows us to a new level of development.

Clearly you have taken the first step into your wellbeing. As a psychologist, I will respect your narrative working alongside you to explore the barriers keeping you stuck. I commit to be with as you explore and challenge concerns, barriers, deepening your self-awareness so that you may live your authentic life. I received my PhD in Clinical Psychology from the Graduate School of The City University of New York. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in the State of New York.

I love the challenge of listening and questioning with the goal of true understanding. If you have been thinking about seeking help with a relationship, managing anxiety, coping with trauma or complex life changes, dealing with alcohol or drug problems, or simply need a good listener to work through a difficult situation, I encourage you to call me to schedule an initial consultation.

Every human has the answers that they seek deep within themselves. My job is simply to give you a safe space to help you navigate and uncover the solutions to problems or answers to questions that you subconsciously already have the answers to. After all, nobody knows you better than you! Together we will process the areas that you need support in as well identify strengths and appropriate coping skills to build up your ability to deal with life on life’s terms instead of resorting to old, negative coping skills that no longer serve a purpose in your life.

“Will I ever get over this?” We’ve all thought that at least once in our lives. Whether you currently suffer from something that happened a week ago or ten years ago, you don’t have to deal with it on your own. I am here to help you find hope, peace, and healing for yourself as we work together to resolve whatever it is that you’re struggling with.

Hello, I am Susan. In my practice, I specialize in individual, couples, and group therapy. I work mostly with adolescents and adults of all cultures and populations to promote mental wellness. My client-centered therapy is grounded in traditional psychodynamic and family systems work, cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive, and mindfulness-based techniques. I do my best to temper the process with creativity, imagination, and humor, along with practical solutions and concrete goals that work to provide clients with a tailored treatment plan that can be integrated into their daily life.

I would like to first start with saying Congratulations to making the first step in prioritizing your mental health! It is a courageous decision to work on ourselves! Therapy can be the beginning of a life changing endeavor for many and it all begins with you. HI! My name is Erin and I, too, have made that same decision in my life to seek better understanding of myself as well as working through challenges that have gotten me “stuck” at times in my life. I share this because I feel it important for my patients to know that my own personal journey allows me to be empathetic and compassionate to patient’s needs and struggles.

Through all of life’s challenges, sometimes we just need a safe and confidential space to process emotions and relationships as we navigate life’s complexities. If you’re a young adult struggling with self-confidence, a family looking for a therapist to help with an addiction issue, a new mom who might be feeling anxious or depressed, or a teen who has lost someone they love, I’m here to support you through this time. I have over 10 years of experience providing both long term and short-term individual, couple, and family therapy for all ages.
