Hebrew Therapists in Phelps, NY

I’m a licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of Critical Care nursing experience, mostly cardiac, nursing leadership, and nursing wellness experience. Through my work with critically ill patients and their families, I have met many people during their worst, hardest days. Through helping my patients’ progress and, listening to their stories, I have realized that in many cases the individual’s mind set and emotional intelligence played the most important role in their recovery. Seeing people’s resilience across difficult situations made me believe in the “mind over matter” concept.

Sometimes we can feel stress and lost with relationships, our families, and ourselves. We all need help. Someone to listen to up. You might wish you could improve your sex life in your romantic relationships, or change your family and relationships interactions. Maybe you want to live a calm and peaceful life and overcome past traumas that don't let you move on. Replaying your history over and over, wishing things were different. It might be the way you think and treat yourself that brought you here. Maybe you want to discover more about yourself and never knew how.

As someone who is LGBTQIA+ and grew up in a conservative community, I know how living inauthentically can weigh on you. Pleasing others at the expense of yourself can have some challenging and long-term consequences. What starts as suppressing your emotions ends up as ongoing depression and anxiety as you continually make choices to minimize conflict rather than truly meet your own needs. While the path forward can feel confusing, there is hope for finding a sense of clarity and relief, and awakening to a life that you genuinely want to engage with and thrive in.

Have you tried making changes in your life, only to find yourself back in the same old patterns? Making a meaningful change is challenging but necessary for moving forward. Your old beliefs will try to keep you safe in what you know. Ketamine is a legal, safe, and effective medicine that helps amplify psychotherapy, and facilitate change. KAP can help clients experience more frequent breakthroughs and sustained improvement in symptoms. Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic that is also known to have psychedelic and neuroplasticity encouraging properties.

It is hard to know when to seek help and where to find it. I offer one free consult session to help you figure it out. I work with young adults, early career professionals, and college age students struggling with family, social, relationship, and identity stressors, as well as anxiety, panic, and depression. I also enjoy partnering with children and teens to address depression and anxiety; especially when there is comorbid ADHD or Autism. When appropriate, I can offer short term targeted treatments for anxiety. Resilience is at the core of my work. At the heart of therapy is our human vulnerability.
