Therapist Saratoga Springs, NY

Online therapist in Saratoga Springs and throughout New York

Life doesn’t feel the way you thought it would.

You wake up with dread, wondering how you’re going to get through another day. You don’t want to keep living like this. You try so hard to keep it together, but inside you are filled with sadness, anxiety, or overwhelm.

There’s a stuck feeling that you carry with you, forcing you to wonder if this is just how life is always going to be. Whether you’ve lost someone or something in your life, are going through a major change, or are realizing that your circumstances need to shift, you’re grieving. You grieve what could have been and should have been. None of this is what you wanted. Or even if it was a wanted change, it’s much harder than you anticipated.

You've been through so much already and when you look in the mirror, you see a shell of who you used to be. What happened? You just want to feel like you again.

Hi, my name is Alana (she/her) and I’m a therapist in Saratoga Springs, NY.

I help adults who are feeling stuck in their lives and those who are navigating grief from a loss. Maybe you realize you need to make a change but are having trouble pinpointing exactly what is wrong or you just aren’t sure how to get started.

If you’ve had a major loss in your life and are grieving, we work together to find a way through the pain. You don’t need to “get over it” or “move on”, but it is possible to get to a place where things don’t hurt so much all the time.

If you’re contemplating a big life transition (relationship changes, becoming a parent, relocating, divorce/breakup, career changes, or a shift in identity or way of life) our counseling sessions will help you figure out what you want your life to look like and how to get there. Or if you’re already in the midst of a change, our sessions can help you navigate the uncertainty and find your path through the chaos.

If you’re ready to get unstuck Therapist Saratoga Springs, NY is here for you.

Expect our weekly sessions to look authentic. We’ll create a safe and non-judgmental environment where you feel comfortable to freely express yourself. You’ll be both supported and challenged. We’ll take an approach that’s a good fit for you and we’ll do more than just talk – we’ll use somatic tools such as Brainspotting to go deeper and help you get real relief. Therapy is often hard work but it doesn’t have to be all serious – there is plenty of room for laughter and profanity.

Many of my clients begin to talk about how they feel clear about who they are and what they want. It's a relief to know that how life is today, isn't how it has to be forever. What could life look like if you felt more alive and at peace?
