I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in New York . I am a graduate from Hunter School Of Social Work in New York City. I have counseled a variety of people within the past 20 years. I have worked with issues related to depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions , parenting issues as well as relationship conflicts. I have also assisted many people dealing with aging parents. As a Social Worker I not only counsel to empower individuals but I connect people to systems and resources to provide ongoing support. My counseling style combines active listening along with interactive compassion and empathy. I like to access an individuals strengths and then form goals that we agree on from there. I use cognitive behavioral therapy as well as a psycho -analytical approach. I have done Christian based therapy also. My focus is a holistic approach to empower the individual for long term success. It is not easy making change but when we realize that we are "all work in progress" it sometimes makes it a little easier to seek help to assist us in being the best we can be! I look forward to connecting with you.

Congratulations! for taking the first step in creating a space for you to find balance. There are times in our lives when we just need a little help. We have tried to alleviate the fear, using practices we have used in the past. Unfortunately, we find that those practices are not working, as they once did. It is like a puzzle where we have most of the pieces, but a couple of pieces are missing that will allow us to see clearly what we need to do to feel better. I love puzzles and I love helping others find the pieces they need to understand themselves better. I am Dr. Nina (Ednita M. Wright). I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and a Credentialed Alcoholism/Substance Abuse Counselor, living in Syracuse, New York. I have provided counseling for more than thirty years, to those individuals that have had concerns with substance use, feeling lost, grief, transitions (for example adolescence to adulthood), spirituality and identity. I am still teaching as a professor, after twenty-five years, in a community college in the Alcohol/Substance Abuse Counseling/Human Services/Teacher Education Department. I consult with academic institutions, community agencies and affiliation groups, regarding issues of inclusion. It is my belief that for our communities to truly be inclusive, you must want to be inclusive and be ready to stop mere tolerance. If I seem a good fit for you, I look forward to meeting with you. If I am not, I trust you find who you need to help you find balance. Have a day full of peace and love.

Claudine Lasky
I have been a therapist for over 20 years. I have extensive background and training in all facets of trauma, such as: adult survivors of childhood abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault. I am able to provide therapy to a wide range of individuals and issues, from a client who wants to improve their self-esteem to a client that is involved in a severe domestic violence relationship. My main goal is to help her clients feel happier, have deeper, authentic relationships and improve their overall quality of life. Regardless of what brings you into therapy, my primary goal is to support you to grow and change in a way that will help you get the most out of your life. I offer validation, warmth, support, compassion, and humor with the goal of developing a secure relationship. I am also direct, but engaging, and believe that good therapy should be challenging, rewarding, and even enjoyable! I have eclectic training that integrates contemporary psychodynamic perspectives and cognitive-behavioral techniques with current knowledge on attachment theories, body-centered methods, mindfulness, and neuroscience. In other words, I will help you to move forward from your past and support you in feeling all of your emotions in a safe, therapeutic environment. You will learn how to live in the present, and let go of painful or traumatic memories. Within the safety of the therapeutic relationship, you will learn how to let go of patterns and defenses that inhibit intimacy, and practice developing skills that lead to healthy and meaningful relationships.

Hello! Counseling is an important step on the road to feeling better, better understanding ourselves, and having more satisfying relationships. As a counselor, I walk along you in this journey as you identify goals for your future. I have been working in the field in a diverse array of settings for the past 6 years. I have worked with clients experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, parenting concerns, and involvement with the criminal justice system. I use client centered techniques with motivational interviewing and CBT.

Sandy Mompoint
My world view is flexible and my understanding is strong concerning multicultural issues in clinical practice. As confident as I am of my acumen, being able to communicate when things aren't working, and then offering to refer the client to another professional who may be able to better aid them makes me a good, self-aware and humble counselor As for my theoretical orientation, I have a fondness for Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which has its merits working with substance abuse patients. However, Person Centered Theory (PCT) and Narrative Theory (NT) are what I perceive will be using with my clientele as follows: My PCT approach would attend to the natural potential to self-actualize. I would focus on building a therapeutic alliance through the tenets - genuineness, unconditional positive regard, empathy – from which will serve to create an environment of safety, growth and discovery of the person s/he is to become. Through my NT approach, I would elicit the stories or narratives s/he uses to inform and organize their sense of reality and explore how those stories describe and shape their perspectives on their past, present, and future. I would take into consideration how culture influences their stories. I would pay keen attention to detail being left out (the omissions) of their problem-saturated stories. Sessions would focus on re-authoring their singular story to establish (or, at least, consider) alternatives and options to their stories.
