Multicultural Therapists in Hoosick Falls, NY

I am accepting new clients M-F, 9-5! Have you have been working so hard to get through each day but are feeling completely overwhelmed and lost? We all have a tendency to put ourselves last, in favor of the many responsibilities we have in life but when doing this we lose track of who we are and what we really need. I specialize in helping people through major life transitions and the work of coming back to themselves and finding their center. If you are a young professional who feels lost, a counselor yourself, or someone struggling to establish healthy boundaries with themselves or others. I might be a good fit for you.

I offer a counseling relationship that focuses on safety, communication, and positive regard for my clients; supporting clients to explore new tools, ways of being, and seeing themselves and their world. I strive to leave my clients feeling seen, heard, valued, and empowered. I work with adults navigating their lives and relationships, stresses and sense of personal meaning.

Over the years I have worked with various individuals and couples who have experienced hardships related to trauma, grief and loss, mood disorders, family dynamics, relationships, identity development & acceptance, coping, and more. Additionally, I work closely with the experiences of immigrant, refugee, and international communities specific to cross-cultural adjustment; multicultural, diversity, and social justice challenges; and community coping and resilience.

My focus is on helping adults, families, and children in overcoming personal and relational barriers using a collaborative approach and creative expression. I encourage your own capacity to heal within the framework of a safe and trusting therapeutic environment, integrating psychodynamic, somatic, and Internal Family Systems-based interventions as well as the artistic process. In my work with families and children, my goal is to support secure, healthy attachments and foster communication, no matter what has come in the way.

Do you struggle with feelings of anxiety that impact your day-to-day life, relationships, work, or overall ability to just get things done? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage all of the expectations that they have in their lives. It's overwhelming to look inward and assess the changes that we need to make or the standards that we want to set for ourselves. If you find yourself struggling with worrying thoughts, feelings of anxiety, or multicultural issues, you will benefit from my style of therapy that leads to greater insight and positive change.

Greetings! I strongly believe that every person has an inner wisdom that can be accessed in difficult times. However, certain experiences in life challenge us to remember or learn tools to access such wisdom. My clients may face difficulties such as anxiety, depression, conflicts within families or couples, and more while navigating through experiences such as identity exploration, migration, acculturation, parenting, divorce, and bereavement. However, with the right support and assistance, individuals can transform these difficulties into strengths, fulfillment, and a sense of connection with themselves and others.

Currently Accepting New Clients - In Person Availibility Are you struggling to enjoy your day to day life? Do you find that the traumatic events of your past are still affecting you? Oftentimes negative events from our past will present themselves at the most inopportune moments, causing us many problems. They sometimes show up as depression, anxiety, isolating ourselves, and repeating negative relationship patterns. If this sounds like something you are struggling with I just want you to know it is not your fault. You are not alone in this and I can help you!

Hi, I applaud you for taking this step. As a therapist, it's not just about addressing symptoms, but to hold space for all the human emotional experiences. I believe that trust and support are important foundations to our therapeutic relationship. As a second-generation Asian-American, I embrace a learning mindset that encompasses multicultural, intergenerational and intersectional contexts. I offer support in a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, trauma and eating disorders.

As a licensed mental health counselor I specialize in multicultural counseling, individual therapy treating disorders such as substance abuse, personality disorders, anxiety, phobias, trauma and couples counseling. As we move into a new and different world I imagine it can be hard for some of us to develop new coping skills to manage living in this new world. I am here to help navigate and guide you and your loved ones through these difficult times. I also provide home visits for the elderly who just can't leave their home yet still need someone to talk. More details will be provided during the intake.

When life gets difficult, therapy can help. The therapeutic relationship is an important part of your journey to greater well being, and together we work as a team to face and overcome your challenges, identify and work through the stuck places in your life, and support you in crafting the life you really want for yourself.

It is in the depths of our psyche where fear and longing reside. We use tricks and masks to defend against knowing ourselves and yet yearn to be known, long to be recognized. The journey to discovery consists not only in what we say about ourselves but how we are listened to. It is in this unique place of psychoanalysis where the known and unknown, the conscious and the unconscious meet. Once we start to listen to the stories we tell about ourselves, and are heard, the mind is opened to a more expansive self and healing can begin.

With a deep-rooted passion for facilitating positive change in individuals' lives, I bring a solid academic foundation and hands-on experience to the realm of therapy. Holding a Ph.D. & LMSW, I have honed my skills through extensive work with diverse clientele, addressing issues ranging from anxiety and depression to relationship dynamics. My therapeutic approach, grounded in strength based practice, is not only evidence-based but also aligned with my values of empathy, respect, and cultural competence.

What is holding you back? I work with young adults who don't know the answer to that question, who are struggling with life transitions, finding a purpose, and may be having a life "crisis." Often my clients are dealing with depression and anxiety related to difficulty making decisions, are stuck in an unsatisfying job, or are feeling confused and uncertain about the next step in their life. My goal is to help you understand what you want and what's holding you back.

I am a very solution focused therapist and Im here to accompany you on your journey. Whether were are dealing with psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, mood disorders etc. or life issues such as marital, custody, teen issues, divorce or job transitions, we are a team to help create the best quality of life that we can.

Some of the most important things that happen in our lives can't be put into words. Changes in emotions, thoughts, or daily life—feeling sad, anxious, tired, difficulty focusing, appetite or sleep changes, loneliness, mood swings, and/or hopelessness—can become overwhelming over time. Envision a safe space where emotions can surface, inviting exploration. Here, they are not just acknowledged but heard, understood, and perhaps even befriended. Creative Arts therapy involves the mind, body, and spirit in different ways than just talking. These ways lead to an emotional connection to the full range of human experience.

I believe in the inherent well being of all of my patients and clients. I am looking forward to connecting with clients on this platform who are ready to explore possibilities, transversing across gender, sexual orientation, and all other identity markers (Sanskrit term: samskaras) which encompass our internal mapping of experience. I am passionate about witnessing my clients step forward into deeper and more expansive embodiment and joy on a daily basis. My clients are dedicated to their own curiosity and unfoldment. My clients will be able to access deep healing on multiple levels as well as vital life coaching through this portal

We are all given a blank sheet in the beginning. What we choose to put on this blank sheet determines our outcome. Through life we are shaped by our surroundings, interactions and family. But not all of us are given the tools to write our own stories. Nature created us, but nurture guides us. As a clinician, I work with my clients to help build their awareness of how their learned subconscious understandings of life have impacted how they engage, interact and understand others.

We all find ourselves in situations where we struggle, become discouraged, or get "stuck". It's normal for us to, at times, be pushed to the threshold of what we may believe we are capable of managing. But whether our difficulties come to us in the form of overwhelming school or work obligations, an unhealthy relationship, or an inability to find the appropriate way to cope with a difficult emotion or painful memory, we can always find a way to not only manage, but to thrive.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, who uses CBT, REBT and others modalities to assist individual, group, children, adolescents, and families to assist each person with the individual treatment needed. I work with individuals with depression, anxiety, PTSD, behavior challenges, and family conflicts. I provide therapy with an unyielding level of respect for the individual path and circumstances of every person who I have the privilege of helping. My approach, honed over decades of experience, consists of nurturing and instilling a social, mental, and emotional environment that will empower a state of wellness in my client.
