Therapists in Tioga County, NY

Sherpa is the name for the person in Nepal who carries your baggage when you are climbing up a high mountain. That image fits with my vision of therapy or counseling. I see myself as your servant. I enjoy helping people carry the baggage you bring on the trip. The usefulness of what we do together is dependent on the quality of the relationship we can develop. Do you think that I can help you carry your baggage until you get back on the trail or are high enough on the mountain to see where you want to go?

Life as you know it has changed. Whether it be suddenly or over time, everything that once was is no longer. You may be asking yourself; why me, how did this happen, am I the only one who feels this way, what, if anything could I do different, or can I actually feel better? Maybe you are telling yourself; I am all alone in this, no one will understand how I feel, I don't know where to begin and cannot imagine getting past all this. The feelings of sadness, anger, confusion, frustration or being scared are overwhelming. You're just trying to make sense of it all. It is a huge step to seek out support but you are here and not alone.
