Therapists in Wellsville, 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.

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.

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.

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.

Everyone functions uniquely, at times experiencing depression, anxiety, insecurities, doubt, and grief. I help people around these issues, as well as introversion, high-functioning Asperger's, bipolar, OCD, and social awkwardness...relationship issues, self-esteem, living with narcissists, identity.

Hi there! If you're looking for help on how to manage relationship and social stressors, develop effective communication skills, and work towards self-fulfillment, I would love to join you in this part of your healing journey.

Many of us feel like we don't belong, carry burdens from past traumas, and struggle to balance caring for ourselves with having a fulfilling life. My approach will help you respond to intense emotions and memories with more curiosity and speak to the parts of you that feel self-critical, alienated, and alone in a more compassionate and nurturing voice. We will explore your unmet needs and help you express yourself with more vulnerability, confidence, and authenticity. You will discover that the person most equipped to help with your own healing is you, and you are never truly alone.

If you are struggling in your life - if you feel unhappy in relationships, wish to feel more confident, are working through grief, loss, or trauma, or need support in coping with a new stage of life - therapy can help. It can be painful to go through such challenges alone. I aim to build a therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy, acceptance, and compassion. Together, we can work to develop new awareness and insight, build coping strategies to deal with stress, and improve your quality of life.

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.

What is it like to be growing up in such complicated times? It is no wonder that so many children are suffering from symptoms of anxiety, depression and other challenging behaviors and are in need additional support. Parents and caregivers find themselves in need of assistance to find helpful ways to respond. You are concerned about a child you love who is struggling, and have hope that things can change. I also provide psychotherapy to adults with a variety of mental health issues. There is no need to struggle alone. Let's go forward from here together.

Therapy is the gentle, intricate process of restoring parts of yourself that you are struggling with. While we do not get to choose how our life experiences or suffering affects us, we have the power to overcome and grow - even when we least expect it. If you have been struggling to feel like yourself and perhaps identify with hopelessness, anxiousness and preferring to isolate, there is a way through these difficult symptoms. I offer interventions to teens, adults and families seeking guidance to improve emotional, mental and behavioral aspects of their lives.

I help clients, of all ages, overcome adversity to lead rich, full, and meaningful lives. Sometimes clients reach out with specific issues they would like to work on and sometimes clients aren't sure what exactly the "problem" is, they just aren't happy or satisfied. My job is to walk along side you and help you uncover and live your truth in a warm and therapeutic way. I safely encourage the best of the people I work with, even when they aren't feeling like that is possible. Life is constantly changing and I can help you find your way.
