Out of Network Therapists in Rochester, NY

I work with children, adolescents, young adults and families. I specialize in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, peer related issues, parenting and family issues. Changes in mood or behavior are often the first sign of struggle. If you, your child or family are experiencing a change that is negatively impacting your life, therapy may be a beneficial tool. As a therapist, my focus is to help each individual or family explore the cause of change and to come up with a plan to increase insight, cope and decrease the level of stress that is being felt.

Effective therapy develops goals for change. Treatment also supports establishing new ways of experiencing life, behaviors and relationships. My private practice emphasizes making change through openness and trust, and building a personal plan that suits your unique life circumstance.

I am currently only accepting new clients for EMDR Intensives. However, I work at a group practice of clinicians with similar training who do have openings for individual therapy sessions. I believe we all have the potential to better ourselves, and that growth occurs while exploring the root causes of issues - not just treating symptoms. I have a holistic approach, treating the entire person rather than a disorder or specific hardship. I view my clients as experts on their own lives and my role as the facilitator of change. I help address my clients' struggles while, equally importantly, maintaining areas of strength.
