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 am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist and a Certified School Psychologist. My many years of education and experience have afforded me a plethora of perspectives and a deep understanding of emotional challenges that we all face throughout the course of our lives. I work with clients who are interested in looking at opportunities for change in their lives, change that will hopefully provide hope and new meaning. Well versed in a myriad of theoretical approaches that may promote change, I find it most important to meet the client where he/she is in the present state of time and space thereby customizing the therapy work within the scope of the particular person’s needs, feelings, expectations and goals. I bring a caring and compassionate connection to the therapy room. My first and foremost goal is to present an atmosphere of safety and comfort to the client in an effort to allow for open interaction. I listen to the client with a nonjudgmental and curious stance so that I can learn what issues are brought up in a free form openness as I learn about the challenges and struggles discussed in the present moment. In this context of comfort and openness, there forms a therapy-client relationship that essentially promotes a feeling trust and reliance between the client and myself as we move forward with words of meaningful client life descriptions yet to be identified, interpreted and worked through. I employ models that include several approaches in my work including psychodynamic, attachment styles, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, narrative and client - centered. Combinations of these models are integrated in a way that would be the best match for an individual client.
