Children (6 to 10) Therapists in Seneca Falls, NY

“Love shouldn’t hurt.” As a speaker for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, I resonate with and seek to help women, men and children of all ages through any situation present or past which has violated their human rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Depression, anxiety, grief, and addiction (substances, sex, etc) are some of the most prevalent issues across the world today. These are clients I’d like to work with. It is not an easy road, but the rewards are great when we stick with it, and having someone to support you and talk to along the way is sometimes all the encouragement you need.

When working with clients, I use an eclectic approach, which means that I am schooled in many theoretical orientations and have mastered an infinite number of skills. I draw from the knowledge I possess to adapt my approach to the person or people in front of me. I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between the therapist and the client/clients. Building rapport and establishing a relationship based on acceptance, empathy, honesty, safety and trust with my clients is my first priority as the therapist. One of my innate skills is being non-judgmental.

I have been in the field of Social Work for over 30 years. Of those 30 years, I've specialized in grief and loss therapy for over 15 years. I counsel all ages of individuals who are grieve, from preschool age to senior citizen.

Welcome! I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and families that are experiencing trauma symptoms and disruptive behaviors. I work in partnership with the client (and parents, if applicable) in order to meet therapeutic goals and live a more holistically healthy life. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment for my clients, where we work together to meet the goals you have set. I have worked in a variety of settings with children/families who have had traumatic experiences - I am passionate about working in tandem with my clients to help them thrive in life, despite past/current circumstances.

On life’s journey we are constantly growing and developing. Whether young or old, life is a journey that usually entail efforts of trying to understand divine will. We often question our purpose in life, especially during challenging times. To keep it real, in many cultures/communities, such as the African American (Black) community, we might have been taught to either “pray” about our situations, issues, and emotions or “suck it up and keep it moving.” This can create negative energies such as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, and other mental health issues that need to be addressed in a healthy manner.

Welcome! If you are feeling like you don't know where to begin with your child's mental health journey, then you have come to the right place. First, we will decide if my expertise and services are the best fit for your child's needs. These needs might include increasing self-awareness, understanding different thinking patterns, learning new strategies to regulate their emotions and learning to cope with overwhelming situations or experiences. If your child's mental health is negatively impacting different aspects of their life, then I am here to support them and you.

Situations change, but the same painful emotions can occur repeatedly, regardless of the content of the situation. Over 30 years experience with individual, couple, child, adolescent and family therapy, grounded in a Bowen Family Systems Theory framework. Research and extensive training in Bowen Family Systems Theory through Syracuse University (Syracuse, N.Y.) and The Bowen Center for the Study of the Family (Washington, D.C.). Experience is important. Being grounded in a specific therapy that a therapist uses in treatment is nonnegotiable.

Hi! My name is Jenelle Coit. I am currently accepting new clients. I have a social work license in the state of New York. I have been working in the field for over 9 years now. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults to help manage day to day life, depression, anxiety, trauma, as well as other mental health symptoms that make day to day life challenging. If you are looking for support, wanting to make a big change, or learn more about yourself, please reach out. I look forward to hearing from you.

GRIEF: A natural response after a loved one dies, family separates, job loss/change, a newly blended family, retirement, caregiving for someone you love, dealing with a difficult diagnosis, an unexpected change or losing a beloved pet. I help clients to learn about the waves of grief and develop a path towards healing.

Hello, I’m Erin. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page. Sometimes taking the first step to start therapy can be hard. My goal is to make the process easy for you so that you can begin to focus on your goals. I know how difficult life can be and how hard it is to heal. I work along side you to help and support you with this. I take a strength based and solution focused approach.

If you find yourself feeling stuck, unmotivated, worried, or lost, you are not alone. No matter our age, identity, or background, we all struggle with issues of growth, change, learning, love, and loss. These things are often part of life, but they're not always a matter of psychological conditions. If you're seeking the knowledge, skills, and support to overcome your challenges (but not a diagnosis or prescription), then my holistic coaching services are designed for you.

The goal for all of my clients is to improve their overall mental health and for them to gain personal growth as a result of their counseling experience. It takes bravery, commitment and mutual rapport between the client and the therapist for this journey to be successful. I provide a non-judgemental, comfortable atmosphere for all of my clients so their voices can be heard.

Stress and anxiety are increasingly common challenges we face as humans, for individuals and families alike. These concerns may arise from a variety of sources, including relational difficulties, societal pressures, and behavior challenges in children and teens. Having a space to focus on strengths, improve communication, identify tools for coping, and reflect on values, can be integral for not only healing but thriving. Through a warm, collaborative, curious stance, I utilize evidence-based treatments to create improvements in functioning and quality of life.
