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.

I would like to start with this quote as an encouragement to you. "Motivation is not something you wait to get, motivation is something that you do," by Sharon L. Johnson. This quote is to encourage you to increase your motivation. I encourage you to be a go-getter, a self-starter, be ambitious, be self-driven, and go after your heart desires and your dreams, set goals and seek to achieve them. I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York with over 10 years of professional work experience. I am also Haitian, having migrated to the U.S. in my early teens, and thus I speak fluently French and Haitian Creole, as well as English. I use Cognitive-Behavioral therapy and Humanistic therapy when working with individuals with all sorts of emotional distress and mental health problems to help treat those problems and enhance a better well-being emotionally, mentally, physically, and holistically. Relaxation exercises and mindfulness meditation, conjoined with restructuring the individual's thinking, applying problem-solving skills, and showing great empathy, will help the individual solve problems in their lives, resolving conflicts, gaining better self-awareness, and have an increased happiness and overall improved well-being. I am also specialized in motivational interviewing counseling, a collaborative approach to helping individuals make positive changes around substance use behaviors and other behaviors that are maladaptive for better appropriate, new learned, positive behaviors. I have experience in helping treating many clinical disorders, including anxiety, depression, bipolar, adjustment difficulties, schizophrenia, substance abuse problems, and so forth. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. As a last encouraging expression: 'Be tenacious, hold on in doing what you know works for you. Practice in doing what works. Skill building requires practice.'

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward? Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, or life transitions, therapy can be a space for clarity and growth. I use a client-centered, compassionate approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help individuals develop tools for managing emotions, improving relationships, and building a life that feels meaningful. CBT helps clients understand and reframe unhelpful thought patterns, while DBT focuses on emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress and tolerance. In our sessions, you can expect an open, empathetic space where we address your unique needs. With over 20 years of experience, I use clinically effective techniques and focus on building a trusting, communicative relationship. I tailor each approach to ensure your comfort and long-term growth. It is my goal to care, support and empower you on your journey. I look forward to working with you or a loved one. Please reach out to me so we can work toward your stability.

How are you feeling right now? Are you treating yourself well? Along with happiness, life is painful. However, I believe your pain carries important meaning. Therefore, we will listen to your pain very carefully to find its meaning, which may help you unlock your "true-yourself" day-after-day, year-after-year. Let’s stop putting a superficial band aid on your pain and pretend that you are ok. Instead, let’s find out how you can manage and embrace your pain in order to let it go. My approach is both cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic. We need to go back to what happened to you, and then, identify how you are stuck with your pain. I will help you build new skills, which will help you better navigate your life.
