Univera Therapists in Elma, NY
Hello! Whether you are looking for a counselor for yourself or a loved one, and whether you are in the just browsing stage or ready to make the first appointment, welcome! I believe that the process of counseling is similar to gardening, with the first step being to find the right ‘soil’ to support the ‘plant’ for growth, or in this case, the right ‘therapist’ for your ‘personal’ growth. To aid you in determining if I am the right fit, here is a little about myself as a therapist.

Choosing to invest in your emotional well-being is an act of courage - one that deserves compassion, guidance, and a space where you feel understood. With this in mind, I center my work on a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in empathy, acceptance, and collaboration. Through an integration of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I aim to assist those I work with in developing healthier coping strategies, strengthening emotion regulation skills, enhancing communication and relationship patterns, and working towards a better understanding of oneself.

I’m a New York–licensed therapist providing telehealth therapy to adults across New York State. I help people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or emotionally exhausted — especially those who are high-functioning on the outside but struggling internally. Therapy can be a space where you finally slow down, feel understood, and begin to make meaningful changes. Many of the people I work with are professionals, caregivers, and parents who are used to putting others first.

Beginning therapy can be both an incredibly challenging and rewarding experience. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to seek out services and I commend you for making it this far! By starting therapy, you are choosing to address, reflect, and learn ways to challenge unhelpful patterns that no longer serve you in living your most fulfilling life.

Trauma can take many different forms. For some people, it comes from major life events, while for others it shows up through ongoing stress, difficult relationships, or the pressures of everyday life. Many people come to therapy feeling on edge, exhausted, numb, or unsure of what calm or safety in their body feels like. These experiences often reflect a nervous system that has been working overtime, not something being “wrong” with you.
