Welcome! As a clinical psychologist, I help people who are struggling with anxiety, social anxiety, insomnia, low self-esteem, and interpersonal difficulties. I also work with people who are experiencing significant loss or life transitions, or contemplating their future. I provide a confidential, safe, and compassionate setting where you can feel understood on your own terms. I work with adults of all ages and particularly enjoy college and graduate students. My eclectic approach to treatment includes psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness perspectives, and I tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each client.

There is a path to find relief and gain insight to feel more grounded and capable each day. Thank you for taking the time to explore your healing options. Take a deep breath, slowly let out the breath, and praise yourself for taking this time. I have over 20 yrs of experience working with people of all ages as a therapist and social worker in various human service roles. I can assist you in tapping into your inner strengths and wisdom to achieve lasting changes to your physical and mental wellness. I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Cognitive-behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and the Safe and Sound Protocol using Polyvagal theory. I can use an eclectic approach to meet your needs. I offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART). ART uses rapid eye movements to change the way in which distressing memories and images are stored in the brain to minimize strong physical and emotional reactions. ART is recognized as an effective psychotherapy for PTSD, depression, stress, and personal resilience. I am part of a group practice with Renew Hope and Healing.

I strongly believe in the power of therapy, whether you are struggling with your mental wellbeing, or are simply at one of those challenging, confusing, or stressful moments in life that we all experience. I provide therapy to individuals struggling with a wide range of concerns, and I specialize particularly in working with young adults. I invite my clients to use therapy as a safe and attuned space in which to share the thoughts and emotions that are most present for them, and then together we will untangle how these emotions are connected to current concerns, needs, and goals. Some common treatment focuses are life transitions, identity development, work or academic related stress, grief and loss, relationship concerns, anxiety, and depression. Together, we can work to help you form a deeper understanding of both your strengths and stuck points, gain clarity and take steps toward your goals, and discover how you can use your unique strengths to cultivate a more authentic, liberated, and joyful life. Please feel free to contact me by email (counseling@lilyuribephd.com) or by phone (585)-309-5616 to schedule a free initial phone consultation.

I am a licensed a Clinical Psychologist whose approach to therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, direct, and warm. I strive to create a space where individuals can better understand themselves, their emotions, interpersonal relationships and, consequently, live a more fulfilling life. I work with young adults who are experiencing emotional distress (such as anxiety and depression), grief and loss, relationship issues, or going through life changes (for example, dislocation, career decisions, starting college, health issues). I have interest and experience with identity-based work (for example, sexual orientation, acculturation, self-discovery) and women’s health issues. Additionally, I have experience and training in academic mental health settings and enjoy working with college students, graduate students, and medical professionals. I welcome and value working with people from a wide variety of backgrounds, races, orientations, and beliefs. The basis of my work emphasizes relationships (including the client-therapist relationship), exploration of how your past experiences influence your present (for example, the present issues bringing you to therapy), and increased connection with yourself and your emotions. When appropriate, I integrate different modalities (for example, psycho-dynamic, client-centered, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness-based, dialectical-behavioral, and health psychology) to tailor the treatment to your needs. During our work, I will aim to help you be curious about yourself and support your growth towards healthier self-regulation, self-direction and relationships.

It is both normal for us humans to get stuck, scared, or in our own way and also to need space and support to understand the cause of our struggles, face our fears, make changes, and grow. My goal as a therapist is to use our combined wisdom (your knowledge of yourself and your life, my experience and expertise), and sometimes that of my therapy dog Bella, to explore your concerns, increase awareness, insight, and self-compassion, identify options for change, and understand and respect what you choose to do as a result of this process. I have over 20 years experience as a psychotherapist and specifically working with university students (and staff), international persons, and musicians/performers.

I operate under the assumption that every human wakes up each day and does the best job they know how to do. By creating an environment of safety and unconditional positive regard, my hope is for you to stop just surviving the day-to-day and start living. I believe firmly in the healing experience of coming to therapy and feeling seen, heard, and accepted for exactly who you are. Together we will journey towards authenticity, self-identified goals, and deconstructing painful narratives and patterns, all while firmly maintaining self-compassion. I graduated from St. John Fisher with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked with a vast range of individuals throughout my career, including but not limited to college students, survivors of sexual harassment and abuse, and marginalized identities. I have experience working with addiction, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, adjusting to life transitions, interpersonal violence, guilt and shame, suicidal ideation, and personality disorders. I have formal training in Polyvagal Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. And while I am confident in utilizing these evidence-based interventions in my clinical work, I also firmly believe in the healing power of two individuals holding space together and creating safety, which will be the foundation of every session. Together we can explore who you truly are rather than who the world tells you you should be and push back on the internalized systems that keep us trapped in spirals of shame and pain. It would be an honor to share this journey with you.

I’m a Clinical Psychologist (board certified in Group Psychology), and I work with college and graduate students who want to understand themselves better and feel more at ease in their lives and relationships. In therapy, I offer a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s happening—whether it’s stress, anxiety, relationships, identity, motivation, or big transitions. My approach is psychoanalytic and relational, which means we pay attention not just to symptoms, but to the deeper patterns and experiences that shape how you think and feel.

My history of working in school settings from pre-K through college has shaped my approach to therapy, which is rooted in the belief that counseling is a learning process. From the foundation of a strong client/counselor partnership, clients can build skills and gain understanding to foster better relationships with both themselves and others, while also developing a more intentional and effective process for responding to stressors and challenges. Together, we can collaborate to clarify your goals for counseling and develop an individualized plan that balances support, insight, and skill building. Please visit my website or reach out by phone or email to help you decide if you feel we'd be a good fit.

Hello, I'm a mental health counselor licensed in the state of NY. I have worked in community mental health since 2015 in both clinic and primary care medical settings. My clients have presented a wide range of concerns, including: depression, anxiety, OCD, grief, substance abuse, capitalism, fascism, and adjustment to life after incarceration. Regardless of what issues bring you to therapy, I work from the assumption that YOU are not the problem. Rather, the situation is the problem, and we work together to transform it. This process often involves shifting your view, giving yourself grace, and deepening compassion for yourself. Before graduate school, I was a community organizer and activist addressing issues of social, ecological, and economic concern; my undergraduate degrees are in Community Health and Peace and Justice Studies. I often use a systems perspective to address problems, and I have experience working with trauma related to systemic harm and oppression. I strive to be supportive and curious in my role as a counselor. Working in this field means that I learn (and unlearn) every day. I am honored to walk alongside the people who invite me into their lives, and I do my best to offer honesty and compassion in a safe and respectful way. I value broad access to psychotherapy and gladly offer a sliding fee scale.

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.

Hi, I'm Sean. I'm passionate about helping clients overcome struggles related to anxiety, OCD, life transitions, and identity development. In therapy, we will work collaboratively to identify your goals and create a plan to develop strategies to manage life challenges. In doing so, my goal is to create opportunities for you to come to know yourself more fully, to provide tools for you to connect with others more deeply, and to empower you to live a life more in line with your personal values. I am trained in providing CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ERP (Exposure & Response Prevention), and Psychodynamic Therapy. I often work using an integrated approach that emphasizes treating the whole person and incorporate elements of multiple modalities to meet your individual needs and goals. Change can be both terrifying and extremely powerful. I value meeting new clients where they are at in their journey, and working as a team to accomplish important goals. To book a phone screen and get started, I invite you to reach out!
