Chronic Pain Therapists in Williamsville, NY

When we're at our best we can take on new challenges with enthusiasm rather than fear. Bruce Lee said, "You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip or it can crash. Be like water my friend." Counseling is one way you can improve you're ability to face challenges or "be like water..." Together we can enhance your strengths to allow you to experience the changes you want to see in your life. Now providing telehealth only HIPAA-compliant video appointments.

For clients who desire clinically proven, rapid results, limited appointments and medication-free mental health treatment of habits, disorders, behaviors or trauma, hypnotherapy is the ideal therapy. Clients and doctors seek my expertise for prompt elimination or reduction of debilitating emotional / mental trauma, PTSD symptoms, stress, weight loss, anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, fears and phobias, habits like smoking, gambling, shopping, alcoholism and anger. The list of issues immediately resolved with hypnotherapy is far longer. Please call or email to ask for specific information. If the root of an issue is within the subconscious mind, I can help immediately.

Sometimes people find themselves thinking about going into counseling for a number of reasons such as feelings of sadness, excessive worry, sleep difficulties, irritability, low energy, loss of interest in activities, or due to problems in relationships. The decision of whether or not to start counseling and who to see, is not an easy one, and can take trial and error in finding the "right fit". I recognize that there are many options in the Buffalo/Niagara area, but I would like to offer you something different from what you may have experienced or heard about counselors in the past.

We specialize in Interpersonal Therapy, Anxiety/Depression, ASD, ADHD, College and Work Adjustments, identity-related (race, sexual) concerns, and emotion-focused work.

Through the stress of everyday life, so many of us have learned to put our needs aside. Often, we ignore them in the service of others, overwhelm, or simply not knowing how to nurture ourselves. By building self-compassion and awareness, I work with clients to help them listen to their minds and bodies. Clients can learn to bring themselves back into alignment, finding peace along the way. Past trauma frequently yields inner beliefs about one’s self and the world that clients are not aware of. Through various techniques that use the body’s own natural processes, I work with clients to allow their minds and bodies to heal themselves.

I think it's important to acknowledge that we all struggle, but sometimes that struggle gets to be more often or more overwhelming than we know how to handle and we can benefit from an additional source of support, understanding and obtain some resources and skills that can help reduce our distress.
