Therapists in Syracuse, NY

I am a psychoanalytic and existential psychologist. I am best suited to working with people who are motivated to question themselves, highly open to exploration, and willing to tolerate ambiguity and forego ready-made advice. If you feel ready to do the "deep" work that you may have avoided in therapy before, we may be a good match. Please see my website at www.michaelmillerphd.com for more information.

It is a joy and an honor to work with individuals who come with the hope of finding a place of comfort and safety, a place where they can begin to explore their emotional needs while using the therapy relationship as a platform for this journey. As a provider in the mental health field for over 20 years, I work to offer this relationship and feel that those who make this challenging step are courageous people who work to heal themselves and in response, bring this good work and its results into all the relationships in their life. It is a wonderful journey for those that allow me to stand beside.

I provide professional and compassionate counseling and psychotherapy for adults age 40 and older, combining traditional and complementary interventions to address the holistic nature of healing and health.

Hi there! I'm Diandra, a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychodynamic psychotherapist who blends cognitive behavioral therapy with narrative and solution-focused therapy in my practice. In our work together, I prioritize relationship building as I believe the more my clients feel comfortable, safe and heard in our conversations the more effective our work will be.

One of the best decisions you can make is to reach out and ask for help. I am that hand you can grasp for compassionate care and direction as you gain a better understanding of yourself. Anxiety and depression can make you feel alone and helpless. They are not easy mental health disorders to navigate without help. You are not alone. I am here with you along your journey as you become better aware of how you can take control and overcome the struggles you may have with panic attacks, sadness, and mood disorders. I am ready to listen and help you regain control of your life.

Are you encountering life's challenges and seeking compassionate support to navigate them? I specialize in aiding individuals, and couples, with a focus on adolescents and adults.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the weight of your past? Trauma can leave deep scars that disrupt your daily life—difficulty sleeping, constant anxiety, and flashbacks that make it hard to focus at work or enjoy time with loved ones. You might feel isolated, misunderstood, or stuck in a loop of negative thoughts and behaviors. But imagine waking up each day feeling lighter, more in control, and connected to the world around you! Working on trauma is crucial for reclaiming your life and finding peace. As a specialist in trauma therapy, I work with individuals just like you, helping them to create their own narrative

The dark thoughts won't stop; "I really don't even want to be here anymore" or "What's the point?" Ever since the traumatic event, it seems like your mind is no longer your own. Everything feels terrifying and hopeless. It seems that no one really understands. You shift between keeping your struggles from those you love, to trying to share, only to be met with all the wrong responses; "chin up" or "others have it worse", just isn't helpful. You can't help but wonder- "everyone thinks I'm crazy" or "maybe I am crazy." You're so tired of feeling helpless, but you just don't know where to turn.

I have been working with individuals, couples, and families for 36 years. Despite all of your efforts to change your life you may still find yourself unhappy, discouraged, or lost. We often develop ways to distance ourselves from our emotional pain. While these strategies can undoubtedly provide temporary relief, they never address the origin of our underlying pain in any profound way. Meaningful change, in my opinion, comes from honestly addressing and healing the core issues of our lives. As we all know, honestly facing ourselves can be very difficult and takes courage and determination. Often this can be difficult to do alone.

Are you seeking personal growth and empowerment? As a therapist with a focus on supporting women, I'll help you increase self-confidence and establish healthy boundaries. Through the therapeutic process we'll uncover the details of your story, both where you've been, and the details of where you're at right now. Telling your story enables you to reconnect with your own desires and needs. Your unique story matters, and I'm here to listen and support you every step of the way. Together we'll unlock your inner strength, enhance your self-worth, and start to write the story of your future.

Hi and welcome! I have had the true honor in witnessing through my clients, the strength and growth that people are capable of. I pride myself in creating a safe space for self exploration, healing, empowerment and problem-solving. I believe each session is an opportunity to freely be yourself through exploring your past, present and working to cultivate helpful strategies to take with you from the present day and on. I have taken intentional and diligent steps to be skilled in several treatment approaches to address: trauma, anxiety, depression, phobias, family issues and identity development concerns.

For 10+ years, I have been serving the Syracuse community in various settings, helping others to learn ways to manage anxiety, depression, and challenging life events. I use a person centered and strength based approach.

I love incorporating psychoeducation and and am experienced in using brain body based therapies and modalities. I focus on educating. How can I teach the brain basics for trauma recovery and dysregulated nervous systems? How can I integrate brain change approaches and teach new skills for overcoming anxiety and depression? I like to use harmonic brain healing for disturbing thoughts, teach about the vagus nerve for panic attacks and cognitive tools for maintaining balance. I teach meditations to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression and assist in movement-based techniques for stored trauma. I hope to see you soon!

Life’s beauty can be overshadowed by societal pressures and everyday responsibilities. We may often find ourselves bogged down by shame, judgment, and expectations. As a clinician, my aim is to create an empathetic, non-judgemental environment for you to explore and navigate your own unique challenges and goals. I have experience working with folks who struggle with depression, anxiety, suicidality, autism and ADHD, complex trauma, gender and sexuality issues, as well as race-related stress and trauma.
