Therapists in Clinton, NY

My practice specializes in solution focused therapy utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach giving real time tools to feel better quickly.

Do you want to take a partnership role in enhancing your emotional, physical, and behavioral health? I help people to actively recover from depression, anxiety and other mood disorders, manage emotional and behavioral aspects of chronic pain and illness, and develop and practice the specific attitudes, skills, and behaviors central to physical and psychological well-being.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I work with individuals struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, rejection, fear, abandonment, and much more. Everyone experiences negative emotions, however sometimes people need help to cope with, and heal from past life experiences. I also work with couples who are experiencing many of the same emotions, within their romantic relationship.

My fully telehealth practice is catered towards working professionals, college students and teens (14+). I am a trauma-informed therapist that provides an intentional nonjudgmental LGBTQIA+ affirming space. My practice is centered around folks dealing with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma and LGBTQIA+ issues; including exploring sexuality and gender identity. Many of my clients are dealing with life stressors/transitions, relationship struggles and self-esteem concerns.

Everyone needs help and it's OK to not be OK. I specialize in adults (18+) transitioning into adulthood, new life roles, careers, relationships, family issues, parenting, or other challenges that life throws at us. I provide a caring and safe place to talk through your challenges and barriers. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, self esteem issues, relationships, LGBQT, and mood disorders. You don't have to suffer alone. Email me if you would like to meet and discuss your counseling needs and goals :)

My main goal as a therapist is to provide an emotionally safe and therapeutic atmosphere for my clients. I’ve worked with individuals across the life span and have found that my work has been most impactful with people aged preteen through young adulthood. This time is full of so much change - internally and externally. Initiating therapy can be hard. With a mixture of empathy, support, and reflection, solutions will be developed together, helping to give you a life that is more fulfilled.

Many people ask the question: "Should I go to counseling?" While we are quick to suggest that we or our loved ones get our physical health checked by a doctor; rarely do we make the same connection with our mental and emotional health. Often times we feel stressed, numb, irritable, sad, or overwhelmed; and we believe “that’s just life” or “it could be worse” so these are issues we just try to deal with. I feel strongly about the importance of a positive therapeutic experience because with the right connection and support, anyone can start to see change.

I have over 20 years experience providing individual and couples therapy in the New York Metro area and now here in the Central NY area. I treat adolescents, adults and the elderly using cognitive behavioral and insight oriented therapeutic techniques. These approaches allow me to help my clients identify the cause of the issues, gain specific techniques to alleviate stress while maintaining a solution focused approach. I teach my clients to build upon their current strengths, develop new skills, increase awareness and create positive growth to improve their relationships,communication styles, self-worth and to increase their overall coping skills for long term results.

On this journey, you'll learn to manage strong feelings and understand your life better. I'm here to guide you toward happiness, aiding with sadness, worry, stress, and balancing work with various aspects of your life. Whether struggling with overthinking or finding yourself in life transitions, you'll gain strength and overcome challenges. Therapy provides a safe space to change habits and thoughts for lasting positive change. Your thoughts and feelings are important here; together, we'll improve your well-being and create a more satisfying life.

With a broad range of experience in the field of mental health, I am looking forward to helping my clients meet each one of their personal and professional life goals.

I am a cognitive behavioral, solution focused therapist who has taken a modern approach to counseling, providing my clients with a safe space to focus on the skills needed to embrace their life journey.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has provided counseling and social work services to children and families for over twenty years. I help my clients find concrete solutions to the issues they are facing. I operate from a strengths based perspective that focuses on problem solving, teaching specific coping skills, and helping the client take charge of their situation. I provide tools to help my clients gain a greater sense of control of their situations, and to solve the problem at hand.
