Therapists in Macedon, NY

To benefit from therapy it is important that you and your family feel safe and comfortable. As you work together to develop new problem-solving and coping skills your therapist needs to demonstrate well-developed listening skills combined with the ability to be straightforward and supportive as you move forward. It is also important that your therapist presents with solid credentials and experience in the areas in which you need assistance. I have been told by my adolescent clients and their parents that they feel comfortable and respected, while also provided with skills that can be practiced between visits.

Making the decision to begin therapy can be difficult, and finding a therapist that's right for you is an important step. My therapy style involves, first and foremost, working to help you feel safe and supported as you go through the therapy process. We will work together to identify, understand and then address the issues that are causing you trouble in your life. I specialize in a number of patient concerns including anxiety, depression, coping with chronic illness and other medical concerns, coping with major life transitions, relationship issues, grief/loss, women's issues and stress management.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking to learn and grow while keeping an open mind. Therapy can often be intimidating but as a clinician it is my job to offer support and guidance towards growth in resolving one's personal struggle. I am very passionate about working with people and believe strongly in empowering an individual to see strengths in order to overcome barriers. I see individuals, couples and family's alike as those relationships can be crucial in ones healing. I have a special interest in working with professionals looking for therapy, coaching & support. All services available in English/Spanish languages.

I am not currently taking new clients - As a licensed clinical social worker I have used my work to focus on the complex needs of women and young people in a time when the world feels overwhelming. It can feel that there is never the right, or enough, time to focus on our true selves. A universal truth is that once we start to make space for ourselves, within ourselves, time becomes more precious. We start to see the value in true self care and taking time and space for ourselves. Together, we will use a solution focused approach to help you feel empowered and move your life in a more positive direction.

My primary focus includes meeting people where they are on their personal journey and helping them to better understand themselves, work through unresolved issues, and increase their quality of life. Together we can work on overcoming life’s challenges. Everyone’s story is unique and deserves to be heard. My goal is to create a safe, open, and nonjudgmental atmosphere where we can work together on your unique challenges.

As a therapist, my goal is to be a helpful guide in identifying issues that are impacting your emotional, physical, relational and psychological well-being. Together we will work on a multifaceted plan to achieving your therapeutic goals.

Hello, and thank you for taking time to learn about my practice. My name is Courtney and I have been practicing psychotherapy and Creative Arts Therapy for almost 20 years. I view the therapy relationship as a collaboration, with my primary role as a guide in creating a safe container for healing, achieving balance & empowerment and developing insight & conscious awareness for a more positive and fulfilling life. My style is that of curiosity, non-judgement and compassion for your experience, while together we cocreate a therapeutic path forward to heal old wounds and evolve into new healthy behaviors and coping abilities.

Life is a journey filled with moments of beauty but also with trials and tribulations that we must navigate. At times, walking through the challenges alone can leave us with fear, sadness, doubt, and insurmountable anxiety that others cannot seem to understand. I would be honored to walk beside you in your journey and offer assistance in dealing with some of the obstacles in your path. My compassion and empathy drive me to work hard for you while at the same time challenging you to consider new ideas and ways to approach issues in your life.

In our fast-paced world, it is easy to become anxious, depressed, angry, and/or overwhelmed. If it feels unmanageable at times, that makes sense. Our brains weren’t designed to be flooded with so much information globally and in our personal lives with minimal support. Add in additional stressors such as trauma, challenging family dynamics, or parenting, and it can feel like a pressure cooker ready to explode. However, you are not alone. Therapy is a wonderful tool to help release pressure and learn ways to manage challenging emotions so that you can be your best self.

"I don't even know who I am anymore since I had a baby." Is this you? I hold a specialized certification in Perinatal Mental Health, which most associate with "Post Partum Depression." While much of my work does focus on post partum mood concerns, I am also able to provide knowledgeable therapeutic support for other concerns, such as: life transitions, parenting, self esteem, relational distress, and mood instability. I enjoy working with adolescents in addition to adults, and like to use whatever forum is most comfortable- face to face, phone or telehealth.

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.
