Hello. My name is Tracy Sherman and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor currently practicing in person and through telehealth in New York State. I primarily work with teenagers and adults to better understand their strengths and how to improve their overall mental health and have been practicing for 12 years. I work with individuals with symptoms related to anxiety, depression, mood disorders and life cycle struggles such as changing of employment, changes in relationships, grief and loss to name a few.

Through my work with clients, I strive to build confidence in each individual to focus on their own strengths so that they may actively participate in the problem solving process. In therapy, I establish a teamwork framework to empower individuals to take control over what is decreasing the quality of life. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, art therapy, and other approaches, I seek to target each individual need of my clients in order to promote independence, improved relationships, learned coping skills, and and overall refined lifestyle.

My name is Christine Janik. I have extensive experience with mental health and substance abuse issues. I don’t judge, and I start where the client is. My main focus is the client who suffers from anxiety, depression, and/or substance abuse. I enjoy working with all mental health issues. The best way to describe my style is easygoing, laid back, and with a great sense of humor. It is your hour to let it fly. I chose this career after a close family member introduced to me what he was doing as a therapist. We work together to find the best goals that will be most likely successful.

My ideal client would be someone male or female or LGBTQIA that is struggling to make sense of the world and all of its idiosyncrasies. You need help to be able to move forward when stuck and need an extra nudge from someone on the outside looking in. Your issue could be depression, anxiety, PTSD, personality disorders, lack of confidence or lack of assertiveness. Your goal would be to gain understanding, to talk without fear or inhibition and to make needed changes in order to live your best life. Sometimes childhood trauma still has an affect on you today. I will try to help you to gain insight into your past.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or just overwhelmed? Are you struggling to navigate a difficult relationship with a partner or family member? Do you know you need to make a change in life, but don’t know how? I can help. Together, we can work to discover the thoughts, behaviors and beliefs that are holding you back.

While my work covers all issues for teenagers and adults, I specialize in working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma and have deep attachment wounds. I am a believer in long term psychotherapy that gets to the origin of an emotional problem and offers creative solutions as well as a variety of evidence-based coping strategies. If you are feeling alone, misunderstood, lost, angry, isolated, trapped or emotionally overwhelmed, then I can offer you a tool box of conflict resolution skills, communication skills, trauma-informed strategies, coping skills, and multi-dimensional insights that will help you reach your

I help couples use their love relationships to develop and maintain emotional safety and intimacy while working on their relationship issues. I help couples gain understanding of their relationship agendas stemming from unhealed childhood emotional wounds. Couples design caring behaviors (words, gestures, timing) for emotional healing. In counseling, I help couples to talk to each other one-at-a-time, many report feeling heard for the first time in their lives. Emotionally safe transactions lead couples toward greater fulfillment, intimacy, trust, and friendship. Asking for specific caring and behaviors is the responsibility of both partners.

I am warm, compassionate, empathetic, and a great listener.

In life, we all experience both positive and negative life events that affect our mental health and well-being. It's not just the actual experiences that we encounter, but how we come out of those experiences as the best version of ourselves that creates space for even more growth and maturity, no matter how big or small the event/experience is. Therapy is an ongoing process that takes dedication and an open mind. Our mental health directly correlates to our physical, emotional and spiritual health. It starts with the mind. How we interpret and receive things is essential in understanding who we are and who we want to be.
