My name is Collette, and I have a passion for working with anxious and overwhelmed teenage girls and women who struggle with asking for and accepting help.
Do you constantly feel stuck in a cycle of anxiety, overwhelm, & stress? Maybe you keep wondering why this pattern doesn’t change. No matter how much time you spend thinking about it, you can’t figure out a solution, and nothing changes. You’ve probably always taken pride in being able to figure things out on your own, but it’s becoming exhausting. I totally get it, you want to get off this merry-go-round. Sometimes it can feel so hard to find your way out of this cycle on your own – and that’s okay. Even if you're not quite sure what it is that you want or what you need, we can explore that together.

It’s time consuming to sort through profiles; and for that I am so glad you’ve found your way here. I can be there to support you where you’re at right now. Therapy can feel overwhelming; maybe you've asked- where do I start? That is super common! Therapy is more than talking; it’s a safe, healing space filled with both laughter and tears. It’s all welcome and all part of the process. I enjoy working with individuals who may be navigating difficult relationships—whether that be family, romantic or something else! Navigating conflict or life transitions can be tough on our own; at times we just need a little extra support.

Life can be difficult. There’s no denying this. And, at times, life can seem even more difficult. Have you been feeling sad, stressed, worried, confused, frustrated, angry, or at a bit of a loss? Perhaps you’ve experienced, or are facing, a transition in life (e.g., a break-up, divorce, loss of a loved one, medical challenge, retirement, engagement, marriage, etc.) that is leaving you feeling any number of ways. Or maybe you're feeling a certain way and don't know why. If so, you're likely looking to find some peace, clarity, understanding, and support so you can live a happier, healthier, and more authentic life.

Are you struggling to pour into your own cup? Maybe you are feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed and wondering when you will get a break.

Here, you will have a safe, judgment free space where the focus is solely on YOU. A place where you can learn more about yourself, your strengths, life experiences, and what you may want to change or do differently. Whatever your goals for therapy may be, you are in the driver’s seat.

Individuals often decide to begin counseling when problems arise in their life; I believe that counseling can be effective at any point in a person’s life. Counseling is an opportunity to focus on your emotional and mental health while also discovering your authentic self. I bring a wide variety of experiences which have greatly influenced my style and approach, including holding a NYS School Counseling Certification and working as a mental health counselor on a college campus. I often utilize a holistic, client-centered, strengths-based approach and view the process of therapy as a collaboration between client and therapist.

Anxiety, depression, guilt, childhood trauma, unresolved experiences of loss, abandonment, or betrayal, are only a few possible explanations for what may stand in your way of achieving a sense of self-fulfillment, satisfying relationships, and a sense of security.

These issues can be effectively worked through to ease their grip over your emotional well being and enable you to gain better control over your life by making better choices.

Life can be hard but it can also be beautiful. I utilize a compassionate and integrative approach to psychotherapy. I seek to help clients generate positive change in their lives and am a believer in the mind-body connection, the power of our thoughts and narratives, and that our environment and life experiences greatly impact our lives. I believe that through developing self-awareness and insight we can better understand who we are and what holds us back. I integrate modalities that utilize self-compassion, the acceptance/change dialectic, and use a combination of both psychodynamic theory and skills-based behavior therapy.

In the blink of an eye, the world has changed overnight. You may be struggling with insomnia or moods that upset you and that are damaging your intimate, family, and peer relationships. Recent changes in society and your living situation may have triggered life transitions which have sorely stretched your ability to cope. You may feel stuck in a repetitive cycle, making the same mistakes over and over without understanding why and feeling powerless to make productive and positive changes. Maybe you feel traumatized or that choice has been taken from you and you are grasping at regaining some semblance of normalcy in your life.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
