Therapists in Watkins Glen, NY

I am a multicultural, holistic, trauma-informed, LGBT+ affirmative therapist and a core believer in resiliency of human spirit. Though you may consider me as the professional/expert, you are the expert of your lived experiences. I strongly believe that the client has a right to both be a recipient as well as an influencer within the therapeutic relationship. My job as a therapist is to act as guide while you are empowered to tackle both inner and outer barriers. I aim to hold a space for those who may not have access to any other arenas to feel heard and understood.

One thing that we all share as humanity is that we all experience emotional discomfort or pain, it is simply unavoidable. However, we can learn how to identify, tolerate, and manage uncomfortable emotions to help us better navigate challenging times. Whether you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, panic, depression, relationship problems, adjusting to a new life transition, or are simply on a journey towards learning more about yourself, my main goals are to promote healing by showing up as my authentic self and to create a nonjudgemental space that promotes self-compassion.

Therapy can be a transformational process of self-discovery facilitated by deeper levels of awareness and change. I believe we have an inherent ability to heal ourselves, and my primary focus is to honor and trust your experience. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and other life stressors can interfere with living a fulfilling life, causing problems in your life and relationships, and leaving you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, lost or numb. I believe that therapy should meet the individual where they are within their unique set of circumstances.

Are you a college student, recent graduate, or prospective student struggling with anxiety or depression? At Sol Health, we understand how difficult it is to find a trustworthy therapist on a budget, which is why we offer therapy at $30 per session. We are a diverse team of qualified therapists-in-training and expert licensed clinical supervisors that are on a mission to make therapy more accessible in higher education.

You've got it together...mostly. You're a rock star at your job, you're amazing to your partner, and you love the heck out of your kids, so why does the little voice in your head STILL say "Not good enough"? You do ALL the things for everyone who needs you (because you definitely feel guilty if you don't), and on the days you're overwhelmed and running on fumes? You'll continue to push through, because saying "no" feels like letting someone down. You can't remember the last time you did something for yourself, since "self-care" sounds like selfish and "burn out" is something you passed miles ago.

As a queer and nonbinary individual, I am passionate about working with and advocating for the queer and neurodiverse communities. I strive to provide my clients a safe, sensory-friendly, and creative space to work through life’s challenges with a provider with whom they know has shared experiences and extensive experience in providing affirming care.

As a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, I focus on a culturally competent approach to assess and support my clients throughout their growth and healing journey.

Are you experiencing higher levels of anxiety or stress? Do you feel frustrated and stuck? Do you want change but don't know what kind of change or how to get there? Are you going through a life transition? Do you question whether your life can have more meaning? Or maybe you find yourself repeating the same pattern over and over and don’t know how to change it?

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.

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.

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 know that coming to therapy can be challenging and I am committed to creating a warm, empathic, and safe space for our time together. My priority is to meet you where you are in order to help you on your journey to a more authentic and fulfilling life and I will tailor the treatment to meet your individual needs and goals. I work in an integrative way, drawing on a variety of theories that will allow us to look at the root of your concerns. I also utilize mindfulness techniques and behavioral strategies to help you improve your coping and self-care skills.

My approach is unique, just like each person I meet! Together, we navigate your current and past feelings and circumstances. You will discover how your thoughts and perspectives form and how this guides your behaviors and relationships with yourself and others. You will develop a new or deeper understanding of how you process your experiences. We explore new tools to lean on and clearer understandings of feeling better on your journey and improving your quality of life.

I have worked extensively with individuals who struggle with alcoholism, addictions, co-occurring disorders, and recovery challenges, as well as with relationship and family issues.
