Expressive Arts Therapists in 14850

Do you find yourself feeling stuck in certain feelings? We call emotions "feelings" because they are experienced physically first, and then words are put to what is felt. If talking yourself out of uncomfortable feelings isn't working, you may want to try body-based therapy. All of your emotions are needed to fully express yourself, just as a dancer needs a full range of motion, and an artist needs every color. I help clients to cope with uncomfortable and painful feelings in order to open up to feeling safe experiencing the full range of human emotions. I offer traditional talk therapy, body-based therapy, and Walk & Talk therapy.

Inner Lakes Therapy is a warm and welcoming virtual group practice. We specialize in working with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and trauma while prioritizing safety and affirming care. All of our clinicians are BIPOC allied and LGBTQIA+ and ND affirming, if not members of these groups themselves. We do our best to both align with strong social justice values and provide empowering and destigmatizing therapy. We are open, body-positive, sex-positive, kink-affirming, and non-judgmental.

I'd like to support you to discover your strengths, resiliency and feel empowered in your life, schooling and relationships. Together, in a warm, safe, collaborative environment, we create a positive path towards your well-being to deal with anxiety, depression, procrastination and stress. Utilizing your inherent strengths and coping strategies with new successful skills and approaches, we will uncover negative thought patterns or behaviors, stuck places, and create new pathways. Reconnecting with your healthy self, we will navigate through present transitions, pain or loss to transform your connection with yourself and others.

I have just launched my practice and am eager to welcome new clients! I have appointments available on Tues, Wed, and Thurs at morning, afternoon, and early evening times. I work with adults 18 years old and older. I place a high value on working responsively and effectively with people whose social identities (such as culture and gender) are different than mine. I am a good match for you if you are looking for a warm, non-judgmental therapist to join you on the courageous path of self-discovery and healing. I am especially skilled at helping with issues related to trauma, anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, and relationship conflicts.

Challenges and occasional catastrophes are inevitable, and serve to strengthen our confidence in the long run. If our fear and negativity are running the show, however, we get stuck. Let's pick apart the patterns that do not serve and re-author a peaceful, vibrant future. Using a combination of psychotherapy and coaching allows us to uncover destructive patterns, heal, and then move forward in a positive, purposeful direction. What are the painful ideas, feelings and memories that fuel your reactions?

My approach is influenced by C.G. Jung, Viktor Frankl (Man's Search for Meaning) Socratic dialogue, Buddhism and Quaker meetings. I work best with the person who sees their life as a journey of self-discovery. I will help you uncover the solutions that you already have and see the problematics of those solutions. I will help you listen to your muse, interpret your dreams, identify your interpersonal patterns and face the fears and anxieties that haunt you. I will treat your troubles with the utmost respect because they help you learn and grow. Gratitude softens pain. I find parallels between creativity & spiritual inspiration.

Accepting New Clients- Hello and welcome! Looking for a therapist, that is a good fit, can be challenging. Our work together is tailored to your unique needs and preferences. While accepting clients of all ages, I have a special interest in working with adults after graduating high school or entering college, maternal mental health and supporting parents and caregivers navigate life transitions and challenges.

Please note that my practice is for adults residing in New York State only. Today you are one step closer to a new personal space where you feel empowered and enabled to experience your true personal freedom. We often limit our personal freedom and our way to happiness because of our fear of expressing our true self, not the false self which is dictated by others. My goal is to help you uncover your true self and lead a balanced life that is truly meaningful to you. I use Jungian Psychoanalytic therapy primarily, but I also use other modalities such as Mindfulness-based or Existential psychotherapy at times.

I am here and ready to move through this with you. Whether you are in transition, longing for peace of mind & body, suffering, stuck, overwhelmed, navigating a relationship, transforming, growing or just maintaining; I will meet you there. Together we will lean in toward a deeper understanding of you. Using an embodied relational approach we will tend to you as a whole person and build skills that support fulfillment and greater clarity around your needs, and how to meet them.

I firmly believe that in the darkest of places there can be Radiant Light and Bright Hope. Whether you or your child are struggling with a new diagnosis, working through trauma, wanting to set boundaries for a healthier self, or are in need of coping strategies for every day life, I am committed to walking through each step in the journey with you.

Are you seeking ways in which to feel better or to improve your interpersonal relationships? The decision to make that first step toward lasting change can be daunting. I help individuals, couples and families find healthy, creative and lasting solutions to their personal and interpersonal relationship challenges. My clinical training and expertise focuses on safely helping you to explore feelings of distress, leading to new insights, healing and change. I believe that anyone has the capability of achieving more happiness and satisfaction in their lives and relationships. You CAN take control of your life and feel great again.

Life can feel deeply overwhelming and struggles at times seem insurmountable. Grief, depression, anxiety, outside expectations, and other mental health challenges can make it difficult to identify and experience life's joys. I seek to serve people who have been marginalized/othered or felt uncomfortable with traditional therapy: People who identify as LGBTQIA, BIPOC, polyamorous individuals/families, people living with physical, intellectual, or developmental disability, and those living with chronic and severe mental illness.
