Therapists in Wales Center, NY

My approach begins with guiding female young adults and adults in understanding and managing their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we establish a safe and supportive relationship for optimal self-learning and personal growth. We create strategies for lifetime success through the use of customized activities and evidence based therapies, that develop awareness and promote healing. Individuals are taught and encouraged to practice self-regulation skills and techniques to improve outlook and quality of life. I use humor and a lighthearted approach, when appropriate, to bring a sense of comfort and ease to sessions.

Hello! My name is Stephanie. I am an LMSW and psychotherapist with experiences working with mental health and substance use. I approach therapy from a holistic mind/ body perspective. I utilize evidenced based practices such as; Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), as well as attachment/ abandonment recovery therapies (and several other modalities listed below). I am additionally a level (2) reiki practitioner, and offer reiki services for ongoing healing and relaxation.

We're all doing the best we can with what we have to work with. However, life is always changing, and the tools we were given in the past, may not be working for us in the present. Counseling can act as a software update for your mind, clearing out old ideas, unprocessed emotion, and beliefs, that are holding you back from reaching your goals. I use EMDR therapy and other evidence-based modalities in my work. If you want to live your life more than think about it, and if you want your past to stop showing up uninvited in the present; then you may benefit from this unique, innovative, and holistic form of therapy.

Counseling is a valuable investment in you. People seek it out for different reasons. Whatever your situation, I’ll be pleased to meet you and sort out the best ways I can support you in achieving your goals. My focus as a counselor is person-centered, trauma- informed and strengths-based. Those are social work terms that mean I want to understand you and your unique story to help you use and build on strengths you might not even know you already have so you can have the life you want. The types of counseling I have special training in can be used to help in a variety of situations. Let’s get together to see what we can figure out.

Life events can impact us in ways we couldn’t have imagined and at times we least expect it. These events can elicit parts of us that experience confusion, anxiety, overwhelm, and sadness or lead us to fall into patterns that may not make sense. Perhaps you’d like support to bring a sense of clarity, connection, and confidence within yourself and within your relationships, or to develop and heighten a passion and vitality for life. I recognize that your goals are unique to you and are honored in the therapeutic process.

Currently accepting in person clients for weekday appointments between 9a-2p and virtual clients after 4p. I enjoy working with people of all ages who are striving to move through and process the difficult life experiences, changes and transitions we all experience such as grief & loss, divorce, trauma, addictions of all kinds, parenting and behavioral problems in children and adolescents.

We can’t ignore that voice inside that insists that there is more for us in this life. Or maybe it is telling us that we have just gotten off track. Luckily for us everything we need to heal is already inside ourselves. I am here to listen and provide you the tools and guidance to help you through this process.

My goal as a clinician is to create a safe space where we can work through issues that may be causing you distress, and eventually celebrate your positive growth. I may be a particularly good fit for those seeking support around interpersonal relationships, life transitions, trauma, anxiety or depression. Together, we will explore the patterns in your life that are no longer serving you. I am also a certified perinatal mental health provider and have a special interest in working with folks navigating challenges around parenthood including postpartum depression/anxiety, birth trauma, pregnancy loss and infertility.

We have all been through times in our lives where we could benefit from talking to someone. At Quiet Mind Therapy Services, we are honored to be that person to you.

The inner work is in clearing these distortions and understand the true nature of yourself and change unhealthy patterns and coping mechanisms.
