Family Therapy in Medina, NY

Each of my clients is my priority. When you become a patient with me, you gain my full attention, care, and drive to address and treat your concern(s). While I have decades of experience to bring to the table, I also know that each of my clients is a unique person in a unique situation, and what works for one patient may not be the correct course of action for another. I take the time you deserve to truly understand your situational factors as well as mental factors regarding your concern, and work to find the correct path forward for YOU.

Everyone struggles at times, and there should be no shame in asking for help.

Using a person centred approach client with gain skills to cope and improve mental health. Client will receive respect, support, compassion, and empathic listening to reinforce self-advocacy and symptom management.

The journey of therapy should be something you are drawn toward, not something you have to convince yourself to do. I want my clients to look forward to coming to their sessions, especially when what we're working through is tough. Therapy is a serious and powerful undertaking, but it doesn't have to be ominous. I think being down-to-earth and as lighthearted as possible about the institution of therapy helps to make it feel more accessible and fight any stigma attached to it. I look forward to working with you, you and your partner, or your family!

Available before 2pm only- Reaching out for support can be hard, but you are not alone. Everyone has experienced their own life journey involving grief/loss, relational ruptures, parenting struggles or trauma. Sometimes this journey can leave adults in a place where it is hard to find the motivation to complete everyday tasks, manage life stress or have patience with our loved ones. This can be true for children too, which may cause them to struggle in school, have emotional outbursts or display signs of anxiety. No matter what is bringing you, your child, or family to this moment in time, I am honored to be a part of your journey.

If you are reading this, you have already taken the most difficult step-deciding to reach out for support. As a therapist who has worked with individuals of all ages over the past 11 years, the majority of my experiences have been within intensive settings treating youth with anxiety, PTSD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, depression, family conflict, anger management, and emotional dysregulation. My experiences also include the child welfare system, educational system, inpatient treatment, domestic violence, group settings, family systems and an extensive knowledge base of outpatient services and supports.

There is no shortage of challenges in this life. Managing life stressors or a mental health condition alone only tends to make things worse. You’ve taken a courageous and important step by looking for help. When you work with the right therapist, insight can grow, self-defeating habits can change and solutions can become more apparent. I regularly see adults and adolescents seeking help with relationship difficulties, stress and life transitions. My experience in the school system informs my work with adolescents, young adults and their families.

I see my role as a counselor is one of an assistant or facilitator. I believe we all have the ability to help ourselves but we sometimes need a little help. As we go about our daily lives, we encounter stress which can affect us in different ways; showing up as depression, anxiety, health problems, or relationship problems. Sometimes we need someone to listen and give us a different perspective on our problems and insight as to how to deal effectively with them. I am familiar with cognitive-behavioral techniques and incorporate family systems and personality theories as needed.

Relationships are blessings in our lives but often a source of deep pain. I see so many children, families, and couples distressed with life: unable to experience the blessings; and unable to find peace and satisfaction. In those situations, communication patterns are often marked with defensiveness, criticism, and sometimes even contempt. Sometimes families and couples have stopped talking altogether, unable to find the caring and understanding that once filled their relationships. My practice specializes in Couples/Family relationships and communication challenges - helping folks learn to listen, understand, and love.
