Women's Issues Therapists in Syracuse, NY

I believe that each person holds within themselves everything they need to heal and grow in the ways they would like. I see the therapist's role as being one in which provides an environment of safety and care where the client can explore themselves authentically. It is through this authentic exploration, that the therapist can help the client discover how patterns and ways of being are keeping the client stuck and resulting in suffering. By bringing into awareness these aspects, the client and therapist can then work collaboratively to release the pain and explore new ways of being.

Life can be a challenging process. You don't have to tackle life's problems alone. Sometimes we need some extra help to be the best version of ourselves. The process begins by identifying barriers that are blocking us from achieving our desired goals. Life is an ongoing journey. Therapy can increase our self-awareness and improve our overall health and well-being. I welcome you - with open arms - to begin the therapeutic process and begin to look at those obstacles in life.

Hello My name is Kianna and I have been working in the mental health field for more than 20 years. I attended undergrad at Colgate University where I studied Sociology and Biology. My experiences at Colgate created a passion for Mental Health and a thirst to understand human behavior. I attended the Syracuse University School of Social Work and majored in Mental Health. I have worked with diverse populations of all ages since then and came to find that I enjoy working with people who have come from disadvantaged backgrounds, people of color, women, Autists, and persons living with Anxiety and Trauma of all kinds.

Hi, I’m Courtney! I provide talk therapy for adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing difficulties in their daily life.

I also have a certification in dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

You’re a mom, or you desperately desire to be one. You’re deep in the trenches of postpartum wondering if things will ever get easier. You’re pregnant and struggling to adjust to such an enormous life change. You have never experienced such an intense shift in your identity, goals, relationships, priorities - nearly every aspect of your life - as you have since becoming a mother.

Are you seeking personal growth and empowerment? As a therapist with a focus on supporting women, I'll help you increase self-confidence and establish healthy boundaries. Through the therapeutic process we'll uncover the details of your story, both where you've been, and the details of where you're at right now. Telling your story enables you to reconnect with your own desires and needs. Your unique story matters, and I'm here to listen and support you every step of the way. Together we'll unlock your inner strength, enhance your self-worth, and start to write the story of your future.

Are you finding yourself in unproductive patterns within your life or within your relationship? Are struggling to have a satisfying sex life? I find that unhealed wounds and thought processes can keep people stuck. This may prevent you from being able to engage in ways you would prefer. With guidance, clients create a solid foundation for themselves enabling them to function from a place that promotes personal growth and healthier relationships.

Dealing with various types of trauma and the ways in which it can impact our daily lives can be challenging. I am here to help you understand that your trauma does not define you, your trauma reactions are valid and I’d like to support you in the development of healthy coping skills. This will allow you the freedom to transcend beyond traumatic experiences, forging a new path toward growth, healing, recovery and wellness. I can help you navigate and cope with addiction/substance use, PTSD, depression, anxiety, life transitions, identity related issues, and family/interpersonal relationships.

Would you like to experience more joy in your life and relationships? I can help you get unstuck, stop living from fear, learn how to trust again, regain or improve your self-esteem, and simply work on feeling better. I offer sessions in the more-than-human world, out in the fresh air, supported by nature in a private space and/or in the wonderful healing presence of horses. SpiritedScience® programs offer solace in the spirit(s) of nature and are especially appropriate for those who may not thrive in a conventional psychotherapy setting. I also offer virtual sessions for those who cannot or prefer not to travel to the farm.

The intimate, yet convenient office setting I provide individuals and their families allows the protection of one's privacy and confidentiality while receiving counseling services. As a Mental Health Counselor I have truly enjoyed my work with children/adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I work with my clients and their families by providing healthy coping skills and empowering them to feel confident enough to achieve their goals in and outside of the therapeutic setting. Life can be difficult at times and I never want any of the individuals I work with to feel they are in it alone.

We all will face challenges in our daily lives, and sometimes these challenges can feel overwhelming. Even so, reaching out for help can be a very vulnerable and scary situation. I aim to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment for my clients to feel comfortable working toward their goals.

Life is not always easy, and often feels unfair. Whether you are suffering with depression, difficulty adjusting to change or struggling with an eating disorder, I believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Acceptance and change take courage, and nothing is harder than asking for help - but if you are searching for a therapist, then you have taken that first step towards healing and moving forward.

My name is Autumn. I am a Mental Health Counselor at Restore and Renew Therapy Services located in Liverpool, NY. I have clinical experience providing care for adults, adolescents, children (8+), families, and groups. My approach emphasizes the therapeutic alliance, where we work together using evidence-based practices to achieve your goals. Together, we can identify and work towards the changes you would like to make in your life. We can confront unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, embrace self-love, express gratitude, and discover effective coping skills at your own pace.

Collaborating with you in a safe, relaxed and compassionate space and understanding what you need is key to the therapeutic relationship. Every individual is unique and their issues are not the same. Focusing on the person and not the problem, I offer a strength based perspective where I strive to create a space where clients can openly share, disagree, explore, learn strategies and challenge themselves to live their best life each day. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to make the initial contact and engage in therapy and I will advocate for you and support you through.

Together, we’ll create a welcoming space for partnership and growth. You’ll guide your own care, and I’ll provide support as you work toward your goals. I practice from a person-centered, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive mindset that honors your dynamic personal history.

The questions I had about why people think and act the way they do led me to seek the answers. After studying psychology, I become passionate about using this knowledge to help others, and completed a Master's degree in Social Work. As a licensed clinician, I typically work with young adults who are are looking to overcome past traumas, going through life transitions, or are seeking help in learning to cope with daily stressors.

One beautiful aspect of therapy is starting right where you are. Whether you have engaged in therapy in the past or are looking to try working with a counselor for the first time, I'm here to offer a safe space and company to explore what's happening for you now. We spend much of our lives being conditioned to view ourselves, life, success, worth, and more without priority for our own well being. I invite you to set down those weighty expectations in our sessions and delve into where you fit and feel most authentically you.
