Therapists in Chatham, NY

I specialize in working with high-achievers looking for a "break," frustrated as they often have no idea where to start when it comes to cultivating rest and recovery efficiently into their day to day life. Often the how and why are obscured by ineffective patterns in relating to others, to work, and to themselves. My approach combines aspects of therapy and coaching, to transform insight into practice.

If you are reading this profile you've likely made the brave decision to seek help, which is to be applauded. I am a psychotherapist with 12 years' experience in psychiatric crisis management and clinical psychotherapy. As a practitioner I believe it is important to explore how family of origin issues inform an individual of their self-worth, belongingness in the world and the ability to develop healthy relationships with others. Once we've discovered where the core of a false narrative was created, we can begin to develop alternative ways of thinking and feeling.

I don’t like stating what disorders I treat. Diagnoses are limiting. I work with people, and people are complicated. Sure, you have symptoms that bother you, or you wouldn’t be looking at therapists on this site. But your symptoms vary, and you may not be clear about their origins or why they persist.

In my 15-year career as a Marriage & Family Therapist in private practice, I help individuals and couples navigate change: Identify change they desire. Achieve and sustain conscious change. Endure change they didn’t expect and/or don’t want. If communication is a problem... If your relationship is conflict-filled, lonely, sexually unsatisfying, stuck... If you're struggling with a major life decision, change or crisis... Please reach out. Together, we'll figure out what's in your way. That is, what needs to stop, start or be different to make your relationship with yourself or significant others feel good?

People often carry early attachment wounds that inhibit joy and meaningful relationships. They long to be heard and understood, to be valued by others. They want to let go of the negative experiences and personal narrative, to feel a greater sense of purpose and connection in their life. Going it alone can be challenging… and lonely. Therapy can offer safety, compassion, connection and curiosity to support challenging aspects of their personal narrative that no longer work for them, to begin to let go and create the life they want, becoming their highest self.
More joy is always possible through curiosity and connection!

Sometimes we become overwhelmed by various roles, pressures and emotions. The pain of these feelings can be extremely isolating. My specialty is working with women who are dealing with difficult feelings related to relationships, care taking, transitions, and loss. Women who, due to these challenges, become disconnected from who they are and their own needs. I am a believer that each person has a source of inner wisdom, and I hope to work together to activate and empower your “inner healer.” Pain becomes suffering when it has no place to go. Through a strong therapeutic alliance, relief can be found and pain can be eased.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
