"My commitment as a psychologist in practice for 20 years is to help my clients see past unhelpful patterns of thinking, feeling, relating, and behaving. I believe that each one of us is complex and unique, and basically whole. Our work is a collaborative endeavor where all aspects of experience are invited within the structure and safety of the therapeutic relationship, and where my clients are helped to empower themselves to live their fullest and most embodied lives."

"Life is a mysterious journey of ups and downs, of immense beauty and delight, as well as challenge and, sometimes, despair.

I help my clients align to their purpose, authenticity and power by using life’s challenges as a gateway to self-discovery and healing.

"Finding a new counselor can be a daunting task; so many therapists to sort through, words to read, specialties to choose from, it can be hard to know what you need. I have a strong base of skills in crisis counseling, trauma informed therapy, and enjoy working with the LGBTQ+ population, young adults, clients struggling with traumatic experiences, and those affected by anxiety, depression, or other mental health difficulties. I utilize an integrative approach focusing on client empowerment, better interpersonal functioning, building social supports, self-soothing techniques, and better understanding one's thought processes."

FAMILIES: blended family issues, sibling issues, caregiving decisions, communication breakdowns, substance abuse concerns. INDIVIDUAL: Substance abuse, recovery and relapse prevention, self-esteem, anger management, trauma and its aftermath, money disorders, depression, relationship issues, adoption issues. "

"I have expertise in working with children through adults who struggle with issues such as anxiety, substance use, divorce, grief, trauma, depression, and learning and academic problems, as well as with young adults transitioning to college or struggling to find direction. I work with people individually, as couples or families to help negotiate solutions to these and other life struggles.

I integrate many different approaches, an intuitive sense; and a hands-on, action-oriented approach that's road tested and shown to produce results. Career/Life Transitions. Coping with Chronic Illness, and as well as dealing with emotional challenges are specialties."

"The prevalence of self-injurious behaviors among the adolescent population has become a serious concern. Behaviors may involve cutting, carving the skin, self-embedding (inserting objects beneath the skin), sticking with pins, burning, head banging, etc. Adolescent self-reports indicate these harmful behaviors may help to alleviate their emotional pain and stress, thus are used as a way of coping. I provide a program that focuses on effective alternatives to coping, exploration of underlying causes of emotional pain, and assist clients in gaining insight and knowledge about self, emotions, and coping."

"Therapy provides the support to make changes and an enviornment where alternative ways of thinking, reacting and feeling can occur. I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with older adolescents and adults struggling with depression, OCD, anxiety/panic, PTSD and relationship issues."

"My ideal clients are adolescents and adults who are ready to break old habitual patterns which perpetuate symptoms and internal conflict. Whether it's anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship problems or addiction. The source of the problem lies in defense responses created to avoid painful unconscious material from early childhood and/or other traumatic experiences. Traditional talk therapy is limited in its results because it doesn't get to the root of the problem which lies in the central nervous system and deeper parts of the brain."

"Mindful Living Space is an oasis for healing offering both group and individual therapy.

I bring an empathic, supportive presence to our time together that enables you to express yourself free from judgement. I respect your autonomy and complexity. Together we will work to bring about the positive change that you are looking for."

"I know finding a good match in a therapist can be difficult. I will do my best to give you an idea of who I am. My practice/work centers around the very particular, individual needs of every client. I have knowledge and experience with many clinical issues, treatments, and am always continuing my education. I think just as important, I have a good deal of life experience that allows me to better understand the pain and struggles life can throw your way. I work from my gut and I work from my intuition."

"Happiness and fulfillment are attainable for everyone. For many of us, however, painful and traumatic experiences have caused us to feel inadequate, incapable and even broken at times. It is my goal to help you to recognize that you are a valuable and worthwhile person who can find meaning in life and can achieve your desired goals and dreams."

"Hi! I'm Kate, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained in Counseling and Psychotherapy, based in Kingston, NY. I have a masters in Human Sexuality from NYU, and a masters in Social Work from Fordham University, and almost ten years' clinical experience. I work with young adults, and adults (both individuals and couples), helping them with a variety of issues. Are you feeling stressed? Are you feeling "stuck" in your current phase of life? Perhaps you're feeling depressed or anxious? Or maybe you have concerns related to sexuality, gender and identity, or disability issues? I will listen closely and do my best to help!"

"In the course of a lifetime, many of us encounter periods of profound struggle. Anxiety, depression, stress, and past wounds can impact our relationships, health, and ability to participate fully in our lives. Has a loss or traumatic event left you overwhelmed by unfamiliar thoughts and emotions? Have you spent years coping with emotional challenges on your own and want support to move forward? Are you "fine" on the surface, but underneath feel stuck, disconnected, and long to feel more alive? These are some common concerns that I help clients to address. "

"*Currently accepting new clients* At times, life can be challenging and feel overwhelming. Anxiety and stress are common in today’s world when we feel like life’s expectations crowd our mind with self-doubt and fear. Though life can leave us feeling helpless in our struggle, you are not alone. I encourage clients to join me in a positive counseling process that will help define personal goals, cope with stressors, and access personal strength to feel empowered and self-assured. "

"Sometimes it seems there is nowhere to go, even in your own mind, to simply be yourself. Others in your life may make this difficult or impossible, since you are not quite sure where they end and "you" begin. It can help to have a trained and objective ear. I work mostly with young adults and adolescents, on issues related to sexual assault, domestic violence, disability and trauma. I do traditional "talk therapy" but can incorporate experiential techniques like drama and writing exercises, EMDR and ART. However, the cornerstone of my work is the relationship itself, including trust, empowerment, and joint problem solving."

"Is your child’s thinking, feeling, or behavior negatively affecting their ability to fully engage in life? I help children and families identify challenge areas and provide support through offering individual sessions for children, family-based sessions, and parent-focused sessions. While I may offer specific expertise relating to therapy and child development, parents are the experts when it comes to their own children, so I rely on collaboration with family members to provide the most effective treatment.
