My Private Practice:
Holistic Wellness Counseling Services
Telehealth and/or In-Person Psychotherapy
Syracuse, NY
Do you ever wish you had someone to talk to about the things you can't really say to others....
(but are always right there under the surface?)
And some time to spend on yourself exploring your inner world?
(so that your daily behaviors might be able to shift?)
Or a way forward to heal from life experiences - both old and new?
(so they stop haunting you?)
​
All healing begins and ends with safety -
and so safety is where we will begin,
and where our work will ultimately take you.
I know that therapy can be scary at first -
and if you trust in your desire for change,
I believe we can discover your own unique path
towards self-compassion, peace, wellness, and healing.
It can be done.
It's possible to feel better.
​
The work we do together can change your life...
As a private practice therapist and holistic health coach, I am dedicated to helping my clients navigate life's complexities, traumas, patterns, relationships,
and transitions.
I believe in the power of a personalized and eclectic approach, tailored specifically to the needs of each client. I have studied extensively to be able to bring many tools into our session that will support and serve, yet I am most committed to prioritizing
the therapeutic experience as a source of safety, integrity, and empowerment.
​
My ideal client comes to me ready to do the
work required, excited to learn,
and sick of the way things are -
simply put, they want change.
​
If that sounds like you, I'm ready to help.
I love working with empty nesters, change agents, high performers, leaders, healers, creatives, and especially with women 50+ who are struggling with all of the changes and whispers that come with this truly pivotal time of life.
The way forward begins with the hardest step of all...
reaching out.
I see you. You can do it.
Your healing awaits....
