In Person Therapists in Potsdam, NY

I am NOT currently accepting new clients. I have been helping adolescents and adults work through life issues, navigate barriers, and achieve health and happiness for over 20 years. Whether you are facing relationship issues, grief, depression, anxiety, a life transition or any emotional crisis, it can feel overwhelming to manage all of those emotions and stressors alone. I provide to you an open-minded, nonjudgemental, nurturing environment where you can feel safe to speak freely and explore these challenges and discover your strengths.

Therapy can be beneficial for understanding and managing anxiety, fatigue and depression and those facing life challenges with daily stressors. Dealing with challenges successfully may leave one stronger, more confident, and better prepared for what comes next in life.
