Williamsville, New York was named after Jonas Williams, an early settler. A nearby waterfall provided water power and several mills sprang up to take advantage of it. These days, Williamsville pays homage to its history with the Old Home Days celebration on Main Street. The festival continues in honor of several mid 19th century women who met in the park to drink tea and catch up. You may not always have friends around to help you think things through when you’re feeling down.
You don’t have to keep feeling like you’re running on no power. Treatment specialists are eager to match up with you in the Williamsville areas so that you can work through things and not be alone.

Hi I’m Marie, like the middle name! I became a therapist because I have a passion for helping others and I believe we all need a little extra support sometimes. Life is hard! I have extensive experience in helping clients learn to better manage their stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and more! I provide a safe, supportive space for you to explore your feelings and develop effective coping strategies. I specialize in guiding clients through relationship issues, helping you find motivation, and building self-esteem. I am not a certified art therapist, however, I do enjoy incorporating creative arts in therapy sessions if desired. After a session with me, you can expect to feel supported, have a fresh perspective on things, learn new coping skills, and if desired, be assigned “homework” to work on in between sessions! I typically work Monday-Wednesday & Saturday’s from 8:45am-4:30pm and Sunday’s from 8:45am-12pm. Reach out with any questions, looking forward to working with you!
