Therapists in Williamsville, NY

Hi, I'm James and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I specialize in working with couples to improve communication, conflict resolution, connection, domestic violence, and infidelity. I also work with individuals who have concerns such as anxiety, depression, divorce, navigating family dynamics, loss, self-esteem, and a variety of other intra-personal concerns. I work collaboratively with clients to set goals, identify problematic patterns, increase awareness of patterns, and change or break those patterns.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has worked in a variety of settings including inpatient and community crisis outreach. It is my passion to help individuals break down the barriers that are preventing them from experiencing a happier and more fulfilling life. It is my heartfelt belief that whatever challenges you may be facing, there is always light at the end of the tunnel- you can discover your true potential and life's path.

The challenges of daily life can sometimes overshadow our innate strengths and peace of mind. As an experienced mental health professional, I am committed to supporting adults, children and adolescents in their pursuit of emotional health and well-being. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, life transitions, behavioral or relationship issues, my goal is to provide a safe and nurturing space where you feel heard, understood and valued.

Many of us have been led to believe that coping is the best we can do. But sometimes our symptoms are really just messages that we aren't quite getting. Skill development is always important but real freedom and wholeness often requires an even deeper process of healing and integration. My favorite clients are committed to getting to the root of things and growing through whatever roadblocks are keeping them from their best lives. Even people who are already on a growth path sometimes find themselves running into the same issues over and over again and decide it's time for a deeper look.

Are you searching for more peace and healing? By transforming our perspective towards suffering and learning to interact with challenges differently, we end up having more control over our lives. I have a passion for helping those who are initially nervous about the counseling process.

Over the past few years, I've been dedicated to community health and have contributed to the University at Buffalo counseling center. I hold a Master's Degree from the esteemed CACREP-accredited program at Medaille College. My specialization lies in addressing depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. Looking forward to the opportunity to work together!

If you are struggling with anxiety, navigating relationships or life changes, or have difficulty envisioning your ideal future, I am here to help. If you feel alone, uncared for, lacking in validation, or need an outlet to express your thoughts and feelings, I am here to listen and provide empathetic and nonjudgmental support and feedback. Together we can work on things like relieving your anxiety, moving away from a place of feeling stuck, or developing healthy communication and personal boundaries while helping you feel supported, understood, and heard.

Life can often be challenging. You may feel you've gotten "off track" and need some direction. You may be overwhelmed with things and don't know what to do or how to make it better. It may be starting to affect your relationships, and you don't know how to stop it. You may be wondering what's wrong with you and why this keeps happening, or whether you're depressed. Perhaps you're having panic attacks that come out of nowhere. Or maybe you seem to have developed social anxiety. Perhaps you just don't feel like yourself or aren't content with your life. You want things to be different, you just don't know how to make that happen. You might be wondering whether you're always going to feel this way. You've got a lot going for you, you've accomplished quite a bit, but it still feels like there's something missing. You're not sure what else to do. Most of us feel this way at some point in our lives. Especially when trying to handle the stress of life, relationships and the impact of certain events all at once.

I provide cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for a variety of mental health conditions. CBT is a goal focused therapy that involves techniques like learning coping strategies, tracking thinking patterns, and changing daily routines. You might be a good fit for this type of treatment if you have a particular set of symptoms you'd like to reduce (e.g., depression, anxiety, insomnia) or if you have a specific life stressor you'd like to address (e.g., experience of physical or sexual violence, combat, exposure to trauma in the workplace). I provide therapy exclusively via telehealth because I want to make treatment easier to access.

Our path to therapy often starts in a painful place. We may be feeling hopeless and disconnected, not quite like ourselves. It is okay to feel this way. It is even informative to feel this way because it tells us something different needs to happen. And you’re already taking your first step towards that in searching for a therapist. Feeling better starts with just one step.
