Growing up can be challenging for adolescents- both in regards to mental health and in their relationships with peers. While mental health has become more prominent, there is often a hesitation that arises when it comes to discussing it. I offer a space, separate from their daily life and relationships, where adolescents can speak and feel heard by someone uninvolved and unbiased, but invested in being present and supportive of the adolescent. Adolescents are facing new obstacles both socially and within themselves, and while opening up can be hard, it is so important to do.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Hudson, NY

I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) in Claverack (next to the city of Hudson) in Columbia County, NY. I am passionate about authentic self-expression and somatic experience in psychotherapy. I specialize in treating anxiety, attachment, trauma and relationships for children and adults. My approach is a seasoned blend of Somatic/Attachment work based on the DARe Method with Expressive Art Therapy, especially Music Therapy. I also specialize in Music Therapy for children on the Autism spectrum and young people who are less responsive to talk therapy. I have worked in the foster care system in the state of New York since 2010. I am trained and experienced in working with children and families from diverse backgrounds. I obtained my psychotherapy license (LCAT) in 2020 and am currently working in private practice in the Hudson Valley. I am also a musician, and a multi-instrumentalist. Among my background is extensive training in the meditative tradition of Indian Classical music on the Bansuri flute. I incorporate therapeutic music experiences in two ways: music making together and/or receptive methods in which client can receive somatic sound experiences. I love being in nature, playing music, spending time with my wife and two kids, swimming hiking and camping, and playing my heart out. Feel free to reach out for a free consultation!

I realize that the decision to start therapy is not an easy one. Being in therapy is both a challenging and rewarding experience that can help you achieve life goals and help you reduce stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. I consider it a privilege to work as a psychologist and to be a part of my clients’ lives. Prior to opening my private practice, I worked in a college counseling center for 6 years. I thoroughly enjoy meeting with college students and helping them navigate the challenges they are facing. Feel free to contact me by phone or email if you would like to set up a first appointment or learn more about my practice.

Bussey Holistic Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Rochester, NY

Bussey Holistic Therapy is founded on the premise that all human beings have an innate desire for balance, healing, and growth. How each person defines these concepts are individually unique. I view each client as a whole person–mind, body, and spirit. I meet each client where they are in order to help them meet their personal goals. As a therapist, I am here to partner with you on your journey. Although life has the potential to be joyful and fulfilling, at times we all face challenges. This is part of the human condition and none of us is immune. While we may generally have the resilience to cope and to move through difficult experiences, there are those times when we become aware that additional support and resources may be helpful in navigating difficult circumstances, healing from painful experiences from the past; or when we become aware of thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that we would like to address in order to live a richer life. Therapy can be a constructive resource offering a safe space to heal and grow.

Many of us feel disconnected, carry burdens from past traumas, and struggle to balance caring for ourselves with having a fulfilling life. My approach will help you respond to intense emotions and memories with more curiosity and speak to the parts of you that feel self-critical, alienated, and alone with a more compassionate and nurturing voice. We will explore your unmet needs and help you express yourself with more vulnerability, confidence, and authenticity. My focus is offering Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to the LGBT/queer community and ADHD/neurodivergent folks. My special interests are spirituality, social anxiety, non-monogamy, co-dependence, intergenerational trauma, college life, and plant medicine/psychedelic integration. I am Level 2 trained in IFS therapy through the IFS Institute, and can also be found in their practitioner directory. I also offer ADHD evaluations - you can find an inquiry form on my website.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience providing psychotherapy.

Licensed Dance/Movement Therapist
Boston, MA

The therapy session is a time and space one sets aside to focus on self. To be with self. And to build one’s self. It can be challenging to reflect on patterns, thoughts and emotions, relationships, past events and/or change, but it can also be transformative and rewarding. My role as your therapist is to witness your process and to reflect back with you along the way. The therapeutic relationship is an essential piece of my practice and is built on honesty, trust, empathy, and compassion. In conjunction with traditional psychotherapeutic frameworks (CBT, DBT, Gestalt, Psychodynamic), I use Expressive Arts Therapy (Movement, Drama, Music/Sound, Art) to help foster a creative process. When applied therapeutically, a creative process can help a person heal, open up to change, and may offer new feelings, thoughts, insights, and perspectives As a Dance/Movement Therapist, I specialize in using movement as a tool to identify, explore, and shift the way one relates to self, other, and the world around. I believe engaging in an integrative, body based psychotherapy process is a direct and effective path to embodied growth and transformation.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Rockville Centre, NY

Sometimes you wonder: When did life become so tough? Many things can knock us off balance. Betrayal from friends. Abuse by a trusted one, and the numbing shock of PTSD. Grief and loss. Trauma doesn’t look the same for every person. The common lie my clients tell themselves is, “It’s not that bad, other people have it worse.” You’re not other people, and if your life is being impacted by heavy emotions you’re carrying, you’re allowed to get help. Everything that happens to you, matters. I help people break through the overwhelm. I'm a board-certified psychotherapist specializing in trauma and PTSD, including trauma from abuse, rape, sexual assault and relationship violence. My collaborative approach focuses on your strengths, creating a safe environment that fosters growth. It’s important for someone to be in your corner - not to judge you, or tell you what to do, but to truly listen to you and guide you as you heal.

Do you sometimes feel as though you are an actor, playing a role in public, but living very differently in private? Do you engage in behaviors that you might not be totally proud to reveal? Maybe its getting high, or gaming, or gambling or porn. To me, it doesn't really matter. and it doesn't really matter whether these actions are seen by others as "good" or "bad." My concern is you. If you are engaging in behaviors that you feel ashamed of, that you have tried to cut down or cut out but couldn't, then I want to help. We can work together to identify what is helpful and what is not, see where these behaviors fit into your life and make adjustments as needed. This is how I live my personal and professional life and I hope to be able to be of service to you. I look forward to speaking with you.
