Therapists in Cherry Valley, NY

As a bilingual clinician fluent in both Spanish and English, I possess a wealth of expertise in the mental health field. My graduate degrees in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and psychoanalysis, alongside my ongoing doctoral studies in Counseling, have equipped me with a deep understanding of the complexities of the human mind and the skills necessary to provide top-notch care for my clients. I am actively engaged with various national and international organizations focused on mental health, demonstrating my commitment to staying up-to-date on the latest developments in the field. Particularly, I have extensive experience working with LGBTQ individuals and trauma survivors. In fact, my work with trauma survivors at a large organization in NY serves as a testament to my dedication and passion for the field. My ultimate goal is to support my clients in identifying their core strengths and overcoming any obstacles that may impede their emotional growth, helping them to live a fulfilled and meaningful life.

I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which my clients can explore the issues and challenges they face. I strongly believe in the power of the therapeutic partnership to help uncover the strengths and resources we all possess in order to bring about the changes we desire in our lives. I feel privileged to be able to offer my assistance to others on this shared journey and commend you for reaching out for help to make things better. I have always been a “helper” and over the years have worked in a variety of capacities in schools, hospitals, community service agencies, primary care offices, and as a mother to three children and two big dogs. I believe that each role has helped me to better understand the issues my clients face in their own lives. I hold a Master’s degree in counseling psychology from Boston College, as well as a Certifications in Integrated Behavioral Health for both Pediatrics and Primary Care. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused and strength-based therapy to help my clients deal with life changes, depression, anxiety, parenting issues, and job stress, to name a few. I believe in using humor, relaxation training, and mindfulness techniques to help my clients as we work together to reach their goals. I fully believe that my clients are the expert on determining their needs and guiding their work.

Hi! My name is Helen and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I've been in the field for 26 years, and in practice for 5 years. In that time, I've raised 4 kids, three of which are teenagers, and an adult son with high functioning Autism, who is soon to graduate from college. I've worked in various therapeutic settings such as employee assistance, providing on-going clinical services and case management for employees with work performance problems. I've also worked in preventive services, providing brief and extended therapy to children, adolescents, couples, and families, as well as working in a substance abuse outpatient setting, where I provided substance abuse counseling for adolescents and adults. I have a special interest in personality disorders and currently run two online support groups for survivors, as well as Cluster B individuals working on self-awareness and behavior modification. I would describe my approach to therapy as warm, non-judgmental, and empathic. My role is that of a facilitator. Through our sessions my goal is to help you work on the areas of your life that you feel you are struggling with. Outside of social work, I am very involved in fitness. I have been a CrossFitter for 8 years and I am also a weightlifter who follows flexible nutrition. I walk 6 miles a day and it's one of my favorite activities.

I'm going to be straight with you. When I was graduating from my Master's program in Mental Health Counseling from Monmouth University, I never DREAMED I would FAIL my first attempt at the licensing exam. ESPECIALLY after JUST PASSING it in order to GRADUATE! I ran so far away to a land that would allow me to practice while I sought supervision and take a different form of the exam that was geared towards those that were more HANDS ON! And guess what? I PASSED! Why do I share this? Because! As a therapist, I know that I'm human, just as any of my clients! We all have stories of our own and I bet you have some, too! I am a passionate therapist, that truly believes in assisting my client's in developing FULL BODY healing, through the mind, body, AND spirit! I am a Certified Spiritual Coach and currently working on regaining my Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, along with MANY other certificates. Please let me know if you'd like more information on any of my trainings. With that being said, because I provide a VERY holistic approach and I do go over our session times. This means that I provide my client's with the MOST authentic guidance I can give. This may include integrative modalities, such as energy healing, sound healing, and vocal frequencies. Please keep in mind sessions with me are capped at four (4) sessions, with an opportunity to continue or switch to another BetterHelp Therapist. Schedule: Wednesday & Thursday from 9am to 5pm
