Barry Winley
Greetings to you all! I am a National Board Certified Counselor with over 15 years' experience in direct mental health counseling. Licensed to practice counseling in the State of New York, I am a member in good standing of both the American Counseling Association (ACA) and the American Psychological Association (APA). I have worked in the field of criminal justice evaluating inmates at various stages of trauma, particularly PTSD from incarceration, and the social stigma of community based supervision systems like probation and parole. I have assisted veterans, law enforcement officers, teachers, students, men, women, young adults, teens and children to overcome a host of anxiety and mood based disorders and relationship issues. I have worked some of the most difficult client cases in the inner city, but also identify with needs of clients in suburban and rural communities based on my diverse background and extensive experience. I have developed a holistic approach to counseling concentrating on what I call the "7 Pillars of Health" wherein my clients learn to monitor their overall well-being and begin a successful plan and practice of self-regulation. A proponent of Individual Psychology developed by Alfred Adler, and am also quite adept at CBT, Reality Therapy, Psychodynamic, and Mindfulness methods. As a Christian Counselor I also encourage clients to explore their spirituality as part of the healing process.

Melanie Blaikie
Hello, my name is Melanie Blaikie and am a LMHC with 20 plus years of experience in counseling people with different cultural backgrounds, genders, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, mental health conditions, addictions, trauma, and crisis interventions. I am licensed in New York State and focus on Self Actualization through meditation, mindfulness, and client centered therapy. I can show you how to rewire your brain to help reduce anxiety and depression. I also include alternative type treatments such as: EFT (tapping), dreamscapes, and other therapies that the client may be interested in such as Angel Therapy. Pain management and working with dementia are other areas that I address. I treat the whole person as the mind, body, and spirit are inherently connected. Life is hard and we all need support. I meet the client where they are and believe in working on a treatment plan together so they can be as well as they can be. I recognize that seeking out a therapist is hard but also brave. Therefore, I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment to explore a variety of issues and concerns. I have no issues bringing in spiritual elements, if this important to the client but will not do so if this is of no interest to the client. Nothing is too hard to deal with if the client is willing to explore it. Currently, my schedule is Wednesday, Thursday, and Fridays (subject to change.)
