Therapists in Albany County, NY

Take back the reins in your life. For too long you have been pushing through, just trying to get from one day to the next. You drag yourself out of bed each day, trying to forget about last night’s nightmares or the memories that haunt you. It's a constant battle against the worry that tells you something terrible is about to happen, leaving you fighting just to get through your daily tasks. In a room full of people, you still feel entirely alone, lost in your own thoughts. It's exhausting, constantly pretending that everything is okay. Yet you still put on that brave face and keep going.

Have you ever just wanted to stop? Have you ever wanted to stop managing other peoples problems for them? Have you ever wanted to stop accepting a sub-par standard for the way that you live your life? I have spent my entire career helping those that are brave enough to have the courage to stand in their truth. I have spent countless hours helping people like you, DO IT YOUR WAY -with no apologies. Your mind is your temple and you decide who worships there by recognizing the entities that are undeserving of your energy. The hardest part is over because your transformation begins now!

You feel out of control. That casual drink or hit has spiraled to multiple a day. Your thoughts are jumbled and overwhelming, and you find yourself constantly looking for the source of your panic. You are sometimes terrified of how hopeless you feel and how difficult it is to get out of bed. Maybe you’re still trying to hide all these feelings and keep on “being okay.” It feels awful, isolating.

Welcome to my reimagined counseling practice--now, purely virtual! Do you feel like a square peg in a round hole? Are you out of touch with who you are and what you really want?

Somewhere along the way, you may have started doing what others thought was best for you instead of trusting your own gut. Perhaps you're unhappy because you and your job aren't a good fit. Maybe you feel overwhelmed with stress from all sides.

Whatever you are struggling with, it is my priority to help you cope, heal and develop skills to make you a healthier, stronger person. Life presents us with so many challenges- and opportunities for growth, all without a rulebook. New situations can be difficult. Old traumas and triggers are too. Maybe you think you've figured things out; then everything shifts. Parents and teens/tweens sometimes stop seeing things the same way. Adolescents struggle and can act out their pain in self-destructive ways and lash out at people they love. If life seems like a source of stress and pain, therapy may be an answer.

I assist people in developing concrete skills to increase their ability to cope more effectively.

You struggle with intense emotions and feel stuck in your life. You feel irritable, down, worried, or numb more days than not. You may lash out at others or yourself. Old coping strategies no longer work. It’s difficult to imagine life improving - for you to do anything other than tolerate your symptoms. The clients I work with have experienced trauma of all kinds, including childhood sexual abuse, betrayal, sexual assault, incest, combat trauma, racism, ableism, homophobia, physical and emotional abuse, and dysfunctional families.
