Life can bring many unexpected changes. Whether its the loss of a loved one, diagnosis of a chronic or significant illness or simply working through life changes its my goal to walk with you through it.

Are you a New York level professional executive? Are you seeking a therapist who understands the unique demands of a senior level professional? Look no further; by successfully completing two careers, I am uniquly equipped to provide mental health for executives.

Most of us have thought, “should’ve/could’ve” or questioned, “what if…then what?” navigating through life experiences. I promote mindfulness and encourage awareness. When we notice our thoughts and feelings, (along with whatever is going on around us) we choose to be present. I examine roles in relationships with those willing to challenge themselves to “do better and BE better”.

As a population, we are constantly bombarded with distorted points of views. We are impacted by painful experiences, causing us to develop negative beliefs that carry over into our later years. We never take the time to process how events, experiences, or situations impact us.

When working with clients, I use an eclectic approach, which means that I am schooled in many theoretical orientations and have mastered an infinite number of skills. I draw from the knowledge I possess to adapt my approach to the person or people in front of me. I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between the therapist and the client/clients. Building rapport and establishing a relationship based on acceptance, empathy, honesty, safety and trust with my clients is my first priority as the therapist. One of my innate skills is being non-judgmental.

I am a Licenced Clinical Social Worker and have been working in the mental health field for 20 years. I recieved my Masters Degree in Social Work with a concentration in Family Mental Health from Syracuse University. I also recieved a Master's Certificate in Women's Studies and completed research on the development of adolescent girls. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families and will coordinate with any people that you would like to be a part of your wellness team. I am person centered meaning I will focus on you and what works best for you.

There are times in each of our lives when we seek clarity on life and issues surrounding us. Whether you need support, guidance, assistance with problems and/or issues or help with setting goals for yourself, I am here to assist you by offering reality feedback and talk therapy in a comfortable and inviting setting. I offer therapy for individuals, couples, adolescents and older adults. I am here to assist you in seeing how past events and current stressors impact the person you are today.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and depressed? Maybe you feel like your life lacks purpose and drive. You wonder if happiness is just something people talk about. I know that life, with all it’s twists and turns, can be frustrating and difficult at times. I want you to know that hope is alive! I would love to come alongside you on your journey, and help you develop strategies to intervene on anxiety and depression and encourage you to have a life that is full of vision, meaning and hope.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Social Worker and have been working with clients ages 14 and up for the last fourteen years. I started as a Domestic Violence Advocate in 2008 and received both my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Master Degree in Social Work from Roberts Wesleyan College. I interned as a Social Worker at Strong Memorial Partial Hospitalization for Teens and at Genesee/Orleans Council on Alcoholism and Substance Abuse. I work with individuals, couples, as well as families who have a history of domestic violence, trauma, depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, and those who have experienced bullying.

Have you been carrying a lot of emotions and experiences? I believe that therapy is the opportunity to talk freely without judgement, to someone who is ready to listen & help them unpack their struggles. I enjoy assisting individuals with women's mental health struggles, building skills and practice with mindfulness & meditation, amongst many other mental health symptoms. The courage and vulnerability to talk with someone new about your struggles such as being a new mom or struggling with body image and eating habits, should not go unseen. I honor your effort, and can't wait to start a conversation with you.

Congratulations! I know deciding to come to therapy is not an easy step, but I want to applaud you for making the decision to make your life better. My name is Taralee and I have been New York State Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for 12 years working with individuals, couples, families, children, and military. No two experiences are ever the same and I believe that YOU are the expert of you. Understanding that you are in control, you deserve to be treated in a way that helps you to feel respected, heard, comforted and hopeful. You deserve to live your best life.

Who am I? What is important to me? What do I believe in? What do I want out of life? I know firsthand what it is like to face these questions, especially when rebuilding after disappointment, trauma, and loss. In my own experience and in my experience working with clients, I have found that the most difficult times of our lives can be the catalyst to our greatest growth, and eventually, a sense of peace we had not thought possible.
