Person-Centered Therapists in Fairport, NY

Immediate openings. The difficulties of life grip us in ways both obvious and unseen. Life has a way of happening at inconvenient times and counseling can assist in navigating the emotional difficulties and consequences with someone who is non-judgmental and supportive. I strive to view the world through your lens while helping you recognize your strengths and build resiliency through proven techniques so that you can lead a successful and comfortable life. I hope to have the opportunity to support you through this difficult time.

Is your child or teenager experiencing low mood, lack of motivation, loss of interest, poor self-esteem, irritability, sleep issues, anger problems, and/or difficulty managing their emotions and behavior? They aren't alone. We all want our children to be happy, but there are a lot of things that get in the way of that for our youth. Together, we will work on ways to recognize their feelings, identify their negative thought patterns, and develop healthy coping skills to manage strong feelings. Your child will feel heard and supported while developing the tools to live a happier, less stressful life.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with life? Struggling to transition or adjust to life stressors? Unsure of how to make sense of your thoughts and feelings? Down in the dumps? I hear you. Life is tough! Sometimes it’s helpful to have someone to talk with about your struggles, and while that can often be a friend or family member, there are times when talking with a professional may be more beneficial.

I would like to first start with saying Congratulations to making the first step in prioritizing your mental health! It is a courageous decision to work on ourselves! Therapy can be the beginning of a life changing endeavor for many and it all begins with you. HI! My name is Erin and I, too, have made that same decision in my life to seek better understanding of myself as well as working through challenges that have gotten me “stuck” at times in my life. I share this because I feel it important for my patients to know that my own personal journey allows me to be empathetic and compassionate to patient’s needs and struggles.

I am dedicated to helping you find your way through life's many challenges and gaining some peace of mind along the way. I offer a strong emphasis on person-centered care, cognitive-behavioral techniques and dialectical-behavioral methods.

Welcome! Therapy can be scary and bring up a multitude of thoughts and emotions. It is a step towards personal growth and healing as well as increased vulnerability. I have experience working in the areas of life transitions, depression, anxiety, co-occurring disorders, and family members/loved ones struggling with addiction. I have a passion working with individuals who are questioning or struggling with their relationships with substances, and LGBTQA and TGNC individuals.

Finding the perfect therapist, much like finding the perfect pair of jeans, can be both an exciting and daunting task. Finding the right fit is crucial to building a strong and successful working relationship. As a licensed mental health counselor, it is my goal to help establish a warm and empathic environment that fits you and/or your partner/family to explore your concerns and work to accomplish your goals. I work with a variety of clients tackling relational issues or seeking deep understanding of themselves. I specialize in LGBTQ+ informed treatment, couples counseling & sexual and intimacy-based concerns.

Therapy is a unique experience and I believe that we as humans are most balanced when we feel safe and understood, non-judgmentally. As a bilingual therapist (English and Spanish), I strive to ensure that clients are provided the space to effectively express themselves in a way that makes sense to them. I have experience working with children, teens, families, and couples who can be experiencing challenges with life transitions, anxiety, depression, stress, or simply would like a neutral person to talk to.

"History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived; however, if faced with courage, need not be lived again". Facing pain and brokenness of the deepest kind requires amazing strength and courage! Counseling is a unique opportunity to connect w/ the overwhelming issues that can block one's most earnest efforts to "do it differently this time". I'd consider it an honor to work with you as you come to understand your story--whether anxiety, discouragement, addictions, relationships. I look forward to collaborating with you in this challenging, yet rewarding work, as you move toward freedom from any concern that holds you back.

Are you struggling with maladapting to life challenges? Has anxiety and depression tried to control your life?

Through evidence-based practices including cognitive behavior therapy, motivational interviewing and dialectical behavioral techniques, I will provide you with a safe, trusting and nonjudgmental environment to help you create the life you want to live.

During this difficult time, we can all use extra support.. I am a client-centered, multi-disciplinary therapist who has been working in the field for over 13 years. My experience allows me to meet a person where they are and provide support and strategies to guide them to achieving their therapeutic goals. I am currently accepting new patients and have several slots available at this time. However, I am now only able to offer telehealth (video or phone). Email only for new client inquiries please, and please check insurance information below before contacting- all accepted insurances listed.

Accepting New Clients- Do you find yourself longing for change? You may feel disconnected from what brings you joy or a sense of purpose. Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed with life and the stresses that go with it and you just want to feel calm and centered again. You may be experiencing anxiety or depression and feel like it is time to get help. When we are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, depressed or anxious it can make it hard to feel like a good partner, spouse, parent, employee, family member or friend. When we are in the middle of an emotional storm it can be difficult to find the path out by ourselves.
