I will work with you to build a therapeutic relationship that allows for open and comfortable discussion about your issues.
Hello, Thank you for viewing my profile and considering me as a possible resource to meet your psychotherapeutic needs. At times it can be a struggle to find the right words to express our thoughts, challenges, needs, and wishes. This can lead us to feel stuck, misunderstood, or overwhelmed. In these instances we may find ourselves using maladaptive coping tools to make it through, which can lead to anxiety, depression or simply feeling stressed and unbalanced. If you are looking to find the right words, clarity, and tools to overcome these moments and achieve the balance that is right for you then we may be a great match.

I believe that everyone has the strength within themselves to overcome obstacles in their lives, but sometimes need a safe place and an outside view to help them through this process. Everybody could use support as they handle life, and therefore I believe everybody deserves a space where they can feel comfortable to explore their emotions and express themselves. Through strength-based models and solution focused techniques I work to help people increase their self-awareness of the situations they are dealing with, and find what is in their control to improve themselves.

When the traditions of 'mental health' services are not meeting your needs-CALL. This could be a result of many reasons that pose as a barrier to meeting your emotional support needs in an office. Tele-Mental Health Therapy is a way to have the service come to you and allow you the ability to mold the service in a way that would be most convenient for you. I am a local to the Catskill Mountain Counties with previous experiences in the Rochester area, and have seen first hand the challenges our communities face. It is my hope to help our communities gain an "out of the box" emotional support experience.

In the beginning there was fun, excitement and sex in your relationship. Now your relationship has moved to roommate status and you don’t know how to get the spark back.You love your partner but lately things have not felt the same. TV and phones have replaced long conversations and kids take up any “adult” time the two of you can have together. Sometimes you find yourself thinking some pretty negative things about your partner and sometimes they come out of your mouth, which leads to a fight or worse, stoney silence.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
