You do not need to be fixed. Your feelings are valid. It will get better. You will not always feel this way. And if you don’t believe this, I am here to support you through your darkest, most difficult times. As a licensed psychologist, I can be the listening ear and objective, kind voice.

Learn to reduce feeling overwhelmed or scattered. I can help you find your way and guide you to where you want to be.

Welcome to Samadhi Mental Health Counseling. In our work together, I will use the therapeutic relationship to help expand your awareness, move toward acceptance and then deciding on an appropriate action. My role is to provide safety, security and honesty for you to use and explore what is most important in your life. Creating a healthy and balanced life where you encounter peace on a daily basis does not come without tremendous effort, insight, and a network of people who support your goals. As part of this balanced life, I routinely implement mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) as a way to relate to your inner world in a more authentic way. Another option to help process experiences I implement is eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.

I see mental health as part of one's overall wellness. My approach focuses on having fewer negative emotions, and also on more positive emotions. I offer tools that research has demonstrated are very effective for reducing suffering. I also assist you in seeing meaningful, practical change by compassion, warmth, and empathy with a bit of humor. However, there is no cookie-cutter approach. We work together, openly, to customize your treatment directly to your needs and strengths. I frequently work with POCs, high-achieving students and professionals, folks in major transitions, and those coping with imposter syndrome, perfectionism, procrastination, and worrying. I have a particular skill in working with women, people of color, LGBTQ+ individuals and people new to therapy and welcome your questions!

I've specialized in helping college students through tough times for almost two decades. Through a warm, down-to-earth, collaborative approach I'll partner with you to achieve your goals for change and find peace with the way life is. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a focus on mindfulness and your unique strengths, I can help you understand and change unhelpful thoughts, feelings and behaviors. My specialty areas include managing anxiety, coping with stress around relationships, family, work, life and world transitions, improving self esteem and living with ADHD. Through our work you'll develop a better awareness of who you are, what you want and how to get it. I'll help you discover and feel confident in yourself, and figure out how to live the life you desire. Together we'll identify problem areas or places where you feel stuck and find new ways of responding to create more enjoyable, fulfilling outcomes. Change is always possible, even when problems feel insurmountable. Making an appointment for therapy is often a brave first step in the healing and growth process. I offer a free, initial phone consultation to see if we'd be a good fit. Any time you're are ready to chat, I'd love to hear from you.

I provide psychodynamic psychotherapy in a multicultural context. I provide a compassionately insightful and culturally-sensitive space that allows you to attune to your inner wisdom, leading to contentment in personal and professional pursuits. Psychodynamic orientation is based on an insight-oriented approach of becoming aware of unconscious patterns rooted in our past that significantly impact current functioning in relationships, work, and recreation. I incorporate mindfulness meditation or relaxation techniques if the client prefers. My practice is exclusively telehealth-based, and research has shown telehealth to be very useful for treatment. I offer psychotherapy via a video HIPAA-compliant platform that protects your privacy and bars unauthorized access. Telehealth provides convenience for both the provider and client without compromising the quality of treatment. It is exciting to witness the ease of mental health access that telehealth provides. Now, you don't have to limit your therapist search to your local area but can instead extend it all over the state! I hold these qualifications: I have a doctoral degree (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology from the University of Hartford, and the program is approved by American Psychological Association (APA).

The path to wellness is sacred. I feel it is a privilege to help people on their journey to whole-hearted living. I employ holistic modalities such as Reiki, mindfulness, meditation, connecting with your spirit for guidance and exploring different aspects of wellness to help people achieve their goals and live joyous lives. I have worked as a social worker for the past 11 years in Oswego County, serving children, adolescents, adults and families in a variety of human service and clinical settings. I am trained in numerous trauma focused therapies such as trauma focused CBT and EMDR. I incorporate numerous therapeutic models and interventions in order to help people reach their wellness goals. I believe in meeting people where they are at and helping them to build on their inherent strengths. In 2016 I began my training in Reiki and am now a Karuna Holy Fire III Reiki Master and Teacher. In my practice I offer individualized psychotherapy services, Reiki sessions, Reiki classes, a variety of wellness groups and workshops.

Many of us move through life feeling disconnected and alone. We long for connection but often hold back from fully being seen. Change can feel risky, so we cling to what's familiar, even when it no longer serves us. Over time, this avoidance can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed. If you are fed up with how things are going in your life, I got you! Many of my clients feel stuck or unsure of who they are beyond the roles they've learned to play. As your therapist, I work hard to know you, and I take great care in helping you explore and reimagine aspects of yourself that have been shaped by your personal history. I work with adults navigating family dynamics, relationships, identity, and cultural expectations. I recognize the power and importance of this work, and I understand that deep and lasting change takes time. I won't rush you to a goal before you're ready, and I'll hold space for your process without judgment, pressure, or impatience. I'll encourage you, support you, and, most importantly, empower you to consider "leaning" into change, which I often describe as "dipping toes in the water." So come as you are, and together we'll figure out where to dip in!

Specializing in providing support for college students and young adults experiencing difficult life transitions that include developmental struggles, family dysfunction and mental health concerns.

Hello, I am accepting new clients to my practice and have experience working with people of all ages, ethnic and socio economic backgrounds and a wide range of life difficulties. I use a strengths based, person centered approach as well as Cognitive Behavioral and Solution focused therapies. I would be happy to offer a free 15 minute consult to see if my practice would be a good fit for you.

I come to this work from a place of deep respect for each individual’s story and path. I believe in creating an inclusive, welcoming space where you will feel comfortable exploring both your strengths and your challenges. I have a collaborative approach and value being direct, supportive, responsive to feedback. I have a background in Women’s Studies and literature and creative writing and may incorporate creative and expressive activities such as storytelling and reading other people’s stories as part of our work. I have experience working with a range of issues and populations (see below). I am passionate about women’s and LGBTQI issues and have extensive experience working with gender expansive and transgender individuals along the gender continuum. Fundamentally, I believe the relationship between an individual and his/her/their therapist matters much more than the specific techniques employed. My primary focus early in therapy is developing a relationship where my clients trust me and feel comfortable. I work with individuals in an open and honest dialogue and help individuals increase resiliency and coping skills through identifying their strengths. Primarily I provide individual counseling on a weekly basis. Many clients will be able to work through a particular issue or issues in a brief time, but I am also able to work with clients over a longer span of time.

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York, Arizona, and Colorado with seven years of experience. I work with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, stuck, or just not quite themselves. Whether you’re navigating big life changes, relationship challenges, or figuring out what you want next, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and start feeling more grounded. My approach is collaborative. I use tools from CBT and EMDR, but mostly I focus on really getting to know you, your story, your experiences, and what actually helps you feel better. I also take into account how culture, identity, and environment shape what we go through. My goal is to create a space where you can be open, explore what’s working (and what’s not), and feel supported in making meaningful change. If you’re curious about therapy but not sure where to start, I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can get a feel for my style and see if we’d be a good fit.
