As a licensed mental health counselor I like to look at the whole picture. I believe in mind, body and soul being in balance. Come as you are and be accepted in a genuine space.

Each of us have faced painful personal experiences. Pain can be due to events, interactions with others or troubled relationships. Or they can be caused by negative behavior or thought patterns that won’t stop. Sometimes we can address such troubles on their own. However, if you have been unable to resolve difficult issues alone, you may realize how they reduce the quality of your life – by establishing a pattern of emotional problems, an inability to interact productively with others, impacting your career, negatively affect relationships, or create problematic habits. But they can be addressed with help. My hours are M-F 8-4

Hello. I am happy you found your way here. I help treat a variety of mental health concerns. I specialize in working with college students, the LGBTQ+ community, transgender and non-binary clients, trauma, boundary setting, substance use disorders, and relationship concerns. If you struggle with identity, self-esteem, and stress I am here to help you with your healing journey; where ever you might be in it.

Often the hardest part of solving problems is finding the right person to help you. Since therapy can be an exciting, challenging, and at times a daunting process, it is important to know that you are working with a therapist who is experienced with the issues you are struggling with.

Let's face it, people typically don't want to seek counseling. By virtue of looking for a therapist, you're acknowledging a difficult issue in your life, one that you haven't been able to conquer on your own. Regardless of what you do for relief, it proves unsuccessful. Counseling can help but can be very difficult. It requires that you face the issues that you don't want to have. The therapist you choose should be someone you believe can guide you on this difficult journey, helping you get to the core issues that are truly impacting your life.

I am an affirmative therapist who provides family, couple, and individual therapy to people of all ages and identities. As a social justice oriented clinician, I work towards providing emotionally focused and culturally sensitive interventions. I have specialty training in supporting the LGBQ, transgender, and gender diverse/expansive communities. I also specialize in couples therapy, using my published theory of couples therapy but also tailoring my approach to be client driven. Through teletherapy I work with couples and families across New York State. I provide superbills for out of network benefits.

Accepting new patients for telehealth. I start with a psychological assessment to better understand symptoms and build a treatment plan with each client to align their goals and needs with the best psychotherapy practices. Specialty areas include: anxiety, depression, trauma, physical health problems, pain, sleep difficulties, and stress management. I generally work with evidence-based treatments, such as CBT, as research supports the use of time-limited (not forever) psychotherapies with a focus on behavioral coping skills, education, and processing emotions and thoughts more effectively. -Please visit my WEBSITE: reillypsych.com

Are you someone who is looking to do more than talk about what's challenging you? Delfina Piretti shares the essence of expressive arts therapy: "Each art form is a gateway to the deepest aspects of the self, reawakening a language of image and metaphor and expressing what often cannot be put into words." If you want to embark on a deepening journey into your body and soul, ready to explore areas such as movement, art, mindfulness, and spiritual practice, and in doing so, are ready to grow your awareness of yourself as a whole, I am here for you.

Sometimes we feel invisible to ourselves and within our social networks. We don't often get the opportunity to slow down and reflect on what we want for ourselves rather than what society or our families have taught us to prioritize. I help people feel seen and heard and to develop a sense of their presence and impact in the world and within their most important relationships.

Life can be a challenging process. You don't have to tackle life's problems alone. Sometimes we need some extra help to be the best version of ourselves. The process begins by identifying barriers that are blocking us from achieving our desired goals. Life is an ongoing journey. Therapy can increase our self-awareness and improve our overall health and well-being. I welcome you - with open arms - to begin the therapeutic process and begin to look at those obstacles in life.

Hey! Welcome! Congratulations, you’ve already taken the first step; you’re here. Sometimes we just need to feel heard. Expression is life and we're here to hear you. For those with a history of therapy we offer a new and refreshing experience. For those new to the therapeutic experience, we provide an atmosphere of empathy and understanding as you begin your healing journey. Your goals are our goals and we're here to help.

A happy and secure marriage is wonderful, and can be tough to maintain. Keeping your relationship solid during a really difficult season in life is even harder. So many couples struggle to stay connected when they're going through something difficult: trying to have a baby, adjusting to parenthood, job changes, financial stressors, grief, or health issues. Other couples find themselves simply drifting apart: they're not sure when things changed, but one day they looked up and realized their communication sucks and they barely spend time together. And when this happens, so many couples don't know what to do or how to reconnect.

I offer brief and long-term intensive psychodynamic psychotherapy to individuals struggling with anxiety and depression, family of origin issues, and identity, personality, attachment, and adjustment disorders. I help patients identify and work through the underlying and often hidden causes of self defeating behaviors, lack of fulfillment in love and sexual life, work inhibition, and chronic health problems. Patients find that greater self-understanding improves everyday functioning, relieves symptoms of emotional distress, and helps them have better relationships in their personal and professional lives.
