A friend and colleague once wrote "I have known Debra since she took a position in 1994 as a Clinical Psychologist in our regional hospital. Physicians, nurses, and I were soon taken by her warmth, compassion, and ability to help others, even those with the most difficult of problems. She demonstrated an affinity for children, adolescents, and families, having an instinctual playful approach with children, easy connection with adolescents, and sensitivity toward families." Since that time, I - Debra - have attempted to join others along their path and walk with them toward a better future. View 8 Photos My path has included working on psychiatric and medical units in hospitals in upstate NY and at Massachusetts Mental Health Center/Harvard Medical School; Community and School-Based Health Centers affiliated with Rochester General Hospital; and most recently in CT as the Clinical Program Manager of St. Vincent's Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program.

Unfortunately I am unable to welcome new clients at this time… A doctor colleague of mine refers people to me saying, "if you're ready to roll up your sleeves and get to work, I recommend Gina." My style is a blend of warm, safe, open-hearted acceptance, and curious, challenging, emotional work: all within the context of a real relationship. I have over thirty years of experience and can help you improve your relationship with yourself and others, improve both your work and family life, change behaviors that aren't working for you, and feel more at peace. In graduate school, I developed an interest in what was then a new area of psychotherapy: the treatment of trauma. As this field developed, I've had extensive training, supervision and clinical experience in helping people become less burdened by their past to live more fully in the present.

I specialize in helping people with the transition from school to the workplace, infertility, new parenthood, career/financial pressures, comparison to others, uncertainty about occupation or partner, fears of failure, relationship instability, self-criticism, difficulties with family.

Have you noticed that the same patterns keep showing up in your life? Our circumstances and relationships sometimes evolve in unpredictable or painful ways. In those moments when you feel overwhelmed, you deserve an advocate: someone to hold space for your completely unique situation. If you are struggling with feelings of emptiness, dissatisfaction, frustration, or low self-worth, it might be the right time to consider starting therapy. I tend to work well with clients who are self-reflective and curious about exploring and addressing their priorities, core narratives, and behavioral patterns which no longer serve them. As a counselor, I offer nearly ten years of experience in various mental health settings. In my private practice, my work is focused on adult clients facing a variety of mental health issues. I am very familiar in assisting clients who are navigating anxiety, insecurity, perfectionism, trauma, work stress, life transitions, and family/parenting concerns. My approach is very collaborative, warm, and person-centered. I know it can be exhausting trying to find the right therapist who really understands you and challenges you. My hope is to empower you with the skills you need not only to function, but to thrive. Please schedule a free consultation on my website if you'd like to discuss working together.
