Psychoanalytic Therapists in Bloomfield, NY

Reaching out is often the toughest step and it is very important (and can be rewarding) to find the right fit! Each individual has their own unique story and experiences and therefore deserving of an individualized approach to therapy. The therapeutic relationship should foster one's personal journey to self exploration and growth. My goal is to help you find your best fit and support you in your personal growth, healing, and self-empowering journey. My approach is often described as supportive, warm, empowering, challenging (when you need it), and humorous.

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Social Worker and have been working with clients ages 14 and up for the last fourteen years. I started as a Domestic Violence Advocate in 2008 and received both my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Master Degree in Social Work from Roberts Wesleyan College. I interned as a Social Worker at Strong Memorial Partial Hospitalization for Teens and at Genesee/Orleans Council on Alcoholism and Substance Abuse. I work with individuals, couples, as well as families who have a history of domestic violence, trauma, depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, and those who have experienced bullying.

Finding the perfect therapist, much like finding the perfect pair of jeans, can be both an exciting and daunting task. Finding the right fit is crucial to building a strong and successful working relationship. As a licensed mental health counselor, it is my goal to help establish a warm and empathic environment that fits you and/or your partner/family to explore your concerns and work to accomplish your goals. I work with a variety of clients tackling relational issues or seeking deep understanding of themselves. I specialize in LGBTQ+ informed treatment, couples counseling & sexual and intimacy-based concerns.

I am dedicated to helping you through mental health, family, and couples issues with empathy and expertise. Your first session will always be offered within 7 days, and guiding you to your "best self" is my priority. As owner of practice Whole Wellness Services, I have designed a treatment team of experts that are solution focused and utilize evidence based practices while retaining a holistic philosophy. Individuals that come to us for therapy are looking for help with getting to a more joyful place and alleviating symptoms or behaviors that may be holding them back from doing so.

Welcome and congratulations on making the first step in your mental health journey! -Currently accepting new clients for both Telehealth and in person sessions - Email is the fastest and most direct way to get in touch for new client inquiries. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and parents but am open to all individuals. Anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, family conflict, and navigating life challenges are just a few of the problem areas I help clients with. No matter what area you need a mindful ear to listen or talk with, I feel blessed to be a part of your journey.

I'm passionate about providing a safe and therapeutic space for those who have experienced childhood, sexual, race or gender based, or combat-related trauma. I'm trained in trauma-informed mental health care and developed my therapeutic approach working with a diverse population of individuals and families. I'm deeply sensitive to racial, cultural, occupational, economic, and social justice-related influences on how we experience and heal from trauma.

I specialize in working with children, families, teens, and young adults. I have training in several therapeutic approaches and identify as an eclectic therapist, drawing from many modalities to create a personalized experience that is suited to your or your child's needs. You can expect the incorporation of psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral, narrative, play, and expressive art therapy depending on what is best suited for the individual.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst with over 30 years of experience in solo private practice, teaching and service in the community. Having a relationship with my patients and taking care of them are central in my work. Perhaps because of my background in the arts (dance), I also deeply value the creative yet disciplined use of self and an active authentic engagement in the therapeutic process. I specialize in the treatment of adolescents and young adults (18-25). I also treat individuals, couples, and families who struggle with transitional issues throughout the life cycle.

There are moments in your life when you wake up and find yourself filled with unexplainable dread, unrelenting anger or sadness. As a parent or a partner you try to offer the best of you and yet the feeling of failure or lack of satisfaction is often there. What if you could have a space which could help you find a way to understand these things, find an answer, a solution? What if your child has difficulties making friends, is unmotivated to do the homework, isolates more, maybe even starts to lie? What if he/she needs that space as well? It can be challenging to be an adult but growing up, can be difficult as well.

Many of us were never helped to identify and experience our full range of emotions. When emotions are not understood and put into words they get discharged through action, usually in ways which are detrimental to our wellbeing. Depression, anxiety, impulsivity, and addiction are some of the harmful ways these emotions get enacted. My goal is to create a relationship with the client in which these emotions can be explored and integrated, which results in greater freedom to meet life's challenges and enjoy life's gifts.

Please note that my practice is for adults residing in New York State only. Today you are one step closer to a new personal space where you feel empowered and enabled to experience your true personal freedom. We often limit our personal freedom and our way to happiness because of our fear of expressing our true self, not the false self which is dictated by others. My goal is to help you uncover your true self and lead a balanced life that is truly meaningful to you. I use Jungian Psychoanalytic therapy primarily, but I also use other modalities such as Mindfulness-based or Existential psychotherapy at times.

I am a psychoanalytic and existential psychologist. I am best suited to working with people who are motivated to question themselves, highly open to exploration, and willing to tolerate ambiguity and forego ready-made advice. If you feel ready to do the "deep" work that you may have avoided in therapy before, we may be a good match. Please see my website at www.michaelmillerphd.com for more information.
