You have taken the first step in learning and understanding more about yourself. I am hoping that we will be able to make that journey together. If you are struggling with self-esteem, anxiety, depression and/o seeking gender affirming care please consider me. My personal journey has brought me to become a therapist. It has provided a unique perspective that is helpful and feels safe for many clients. As a person who identifies as part of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) community myself, I am proud to specialize in LGBTQ+ affirmative treatment.

My name is Channyn (pronounced Shannon). Congratulations for starting (or restarting) your journey in taking care of yourself. My goal is to assist you with self-discovery, change, and improving your quality of life. I help my clients cope with the psychological and emotional difficulties that underlie unhealthy thoughts, patterns, and behaviors. I am anti-racist & committed to working with people regardless of gender identity, race, religion, or sexual orientation. My therapy style is warm, supportive, empowering, interactive, sometimes funny, and focused on assisting clients in developing mindful awareness.

Painful experiences shake us to our core. As a result, perhaps you’ve been crafting narratives about yourself based on the most challenging experiences you’ve endured. These stories may leave you feeling misunderstood and struggling to forge a strong sense of self, especially when your lived experience doesn’t align with societal norms. This can manifest as debilitating symptoms, difficulty connecting with others, and damaging self-beliefs, causing you to question your inherent worth and identity. Despite what your inner critic may be telling you, it is possible to embrace your authentic self.

You have found your way here to feel better about the unique individual that is "you." Maybe you would like to see yourself in a more positive light. You could want to be less stuck or stressed with a relationship. Or perhaps you are tired of feeling afraid while it seems like anxiety runs your life. During times of uncertainty or change, It's normal for individuals to feel isolated. You are not alone. It takes courage to reach out for help, especially in the middle of struggle.

My name is Cemre (pronounced "gem-ray"). My pronouns are she/her/hers. Therapy for me is a non-judgmental exploration, a collaborative effort between the client(s) and therapist. I provide strength-based and trauma-informed care to individuals, couples, and group therapy/workshops.

I am a NYS Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist who provides supportive, nurturing therapy in an open, safe, and comfortable space for clients who want to improve their quality of life. My goal is to provide a positive and collaborative therapeutic alliance with clients, so they feel safe and ready to share and process their experiences, improve mental health, learn how to navigate loss/grief, or need help navigating new challenges in their lives.

Life is often unpredictable and painful. It can be easy to find ourselves feeling stuck in a spiral of shame and uncertainty. As humans, we often have an “inner knowing” that we have grown far away from. It’s difficult to commit to the journey of healing. However, choosing this journey is often “the right kind of hard,” while remaining stuck, frozen, and numb, is “the wrong kind of hard.” Sitting with big emotions can often times feel uncomfortable and scary. Everyone deserves a safe space to process difficult emotions and life's challenges.

I am a psychotherapist specializing in growth-oriented counseling with adults & couples. My clients typically work to increase awareness of their present life patterns which lead to various forms of emotional distress. This pain often causes significant disruption in their social, work, physical lives or intimate relationships. Early life experiences influence how we all experience our lives today. Insights and associations during talk therapy often bring previously unseen dynamics to light leading to healthier choices and increased fulfillment. Sessions take place weekly over the course of many months or more for lasting growth.

Welcome! You have already taken the first step to feeling better by reaching out for support. I know it isn't easy and I am here to help. I believe that you have what it takes to get through what life puts in front of you. Sometimes we just need help accessing the tools and inner strength, as well as the opportunity to learn new skills and different ways of approaching problems in a caring, supportive, non-judgemental environment.

Life can be challenging. Sometimes you strive toward something meaningful even though it's not easy. Other times we struggle with what blocks us from a satisfying life - grief or depression, anxiety or trauma. What if you could refocus energy from uncomfortable thoughts and feelings and, instead, pour it into pursuing a meaningful life? More time with family. Enriching a loving relationship. Chasing a career goal. Improving yourself. I believe we can lose ourselves in struggles that take us away from healthy living. But you can aim for a way to deal with internal difficulties and engage in purposeful living. I'd like to help.
