Narrative Therapists in Almond, NY

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a National Certified Counselor, and have earned a M.S.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Alfred University. After over 25 years as a professional in the film/television and music industries, I've embarked on a career in counseling with energy and passion to assist individuals with a variety of mental health and emotional challenges. As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, my approach is based on a foundation of person-centered and humanistic values. I believe that providing a safe, confidential, empathic and nonjudgmental environment is paramount to successful therapy.

Hello! I am a lover of all things weird, strange and wonderful. I unapologetically laugh loudly and cry often. I believe that everyone has the potential for healing and peace within our struggle. We all can write our own stories! I cannot fix you, but I would love to walk along side you on the journey. My own bumpy road has included a stint in the Army and a previous career as an English teacher. As a social worker, I have worked in Addictions, Community Mental Health, and the Department of Veterans Affairs before pursuing private practice. I am also a mother of splendid adults, a wife, artist, dog walker, cat herder and gardener.

I have 25+ years of clinical experience providing individual and couples therapy addressing various concerns. I am a Certified Gottman Marital Therapist and spent eight years as an active-duty officer in the Air Force as a clinical social worker. I value professionalism and provide a meaningful and effective treatment experience using evidence-based practices. I use a holistic approach drawing on personal and environmental strengths and tailoring treatment to meet individual needs. Therapy is a powerful tool to create desired change. Let's partner and see what we can do together. Request an appointment today through my website.

I specialize in helping clients of all ages, with a primary focus on pre-K to adolescent children. I offer virtual appointments for adults during the week and in-person sessions on weekends. My goal is to improve functioning in the home, at school, at the workplace, and in relationships. I use a brain-based approach with attachment-based, mindfulness, play, narrative, and art therapy to address barriers and promote mental wellness. In my practice, I prioritize collaboration with parents when working with children to improve overall family functioning.

My name is Alicia Maxwell and I am so happy that you stopped by! My practice is named, Intentional Healing Psychotherapy, where I am committed to supporting individuals with finding their voice and rewriting their narrative. Navigating through life comes with various challenges, some that are self-inflicted and others that are out of our control and my hope is to be a witness as you find the tools needed to write your new narrative.

Each person is unique and I tailor each session in a way that honors the individual’s lived experiences. My primary experience has been working with adolescents and adults struggling with eating disorders, body image, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, life transitions, and interpersonal relationships.

Life can really suck at times! It can be scary, overwhelming, and really difficult. I hope that together, you and I can come together to draw on your inner strengths to cultivate the growth that you would like to see within yourself. I have experience working with kids, teens and adults struggling with feelings associated with anxiety, depression, challenging life transitions, trauma history and body image. I enjoy working with people who are dedicated to their well-being and want someone who will join them in their journey to feeling more confident.

Welcome to a safe space where your trauma is acknowledged, understood, and supported. Trauma is not just a single event; it's a profound shift that can impact every aspect of your life. The self-blame, shame, and strain on relationships that often accompany trauma are valid experiences. It's common for survivors to struggle with defining themselves beyond their past. But remember, you are more than your experiences. You deserve to rewrite your narrative and not bear the burden alone. Your voice matters, your feelings are valid, and you deserve the opportunity to heal and thrive.

When a person is struggling, I look at the big picture, not just "problems" or "symptoms." Through a strengths-based perspective, I try to see how the problem areas came to be, formulate a plan to address concerns, and actively teach skills to foster change. Through this lens, I have successfully worked with kids (as young as 5), teens, and young adults to address depression, anxiety, self-harm, OCD, ADHD, and other behavioral and emotional disturbances.

I specialize in working with children, families, teens, and young adults. I have training in several therapeutic approaches and identify as an eclectic therapist, drawing from many modalities to create a personalized experience that is suited to your or your child's needs. You can expect the incorporation of psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral, narrative, play, and expressive art therapy depending on what is best suited for the individual.

Now accepting new clients! Welcome! Let's collaborate and discover new potential and new strategies for life. Whether you are having feelings of anxiety, sadness, fears and worries, couple or family relationship issues I am here to help. I have advanced training to help you and your partner heal and reconnect. In addition, I offer clinical Emotionally Focused Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. I work from an integrative/systemic perspective while considering Attachment Theory as it relates to all aspects of being human. I consider your unique perspectives and culture as we work together to help you heal.

I use a short term, practical psychotherapy approach. I believe that all human beings have problems at various points in their lives and that these problems can best be dealt with in an objective, honest, and caring climate. Labeling, stigmatizing and categorizing people often makes problems worse. Objective, and yet personal, individualized treatment approaches are always taken. While the goal of therapy is to minimize, if not eliminate, the problems people struggle against, it is also important to recognize, acknowledge, and enhance people's talents, abilities, and strengths. Client confidentiality is rigorously maintained at all times.
