I believe that healing happens in the context of trust. That kind of trust takes time, and I’m committed to walking alongside you as we build a relationship rooted in mutual respect, honesty, and care. Together, we co-create a space where you don’t have to perform, shrink, or hide. You get to just be—and from there, we explore what’s been getting in the way of living more freely and fully.

Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
After decades of providing psychotherapy and assessment in offices, I’ve moved recently (2019) into a different space: video. Active listening in a safe, private setting is foundational to this work. I’ve learned that the catalytic elements of good therapy can thrive via video too. Save yourself a trip away from work or home!

Maricia Thompson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Some might look at an online therapy relationship as being inauthentic or diluted but I strive to build relationships that are quite the opposite in my online therapy practice. My goal is to create a space where my client feels safe, encouraged, understood and empowered. A space where the integrity of the therapeutic relationship is paramount. I have found that being in the comfort of your chosen space while sharing in mine, clients and I are able to create a relationship built on trust which enhances the ability to be vulnerable, along with flexibility and a shared convenience between us. In all, these factors allow for a therapeutic environment that leads to high levels of accomplishment in whatever area of concern/s is being addressed.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
My online therapy sessions are structures to be quite similar to in person counseling. Most clients I see remotely report that they have benefited as well as they would have in person. In addition, I have utilized Zoom and related media before COVID as I have taught psychology classes and continuing education courses online for many years.

20 Years Experience
Online in Buffalo, NY
Buffalo's post-industrial economy and harsh winters contribute to elevated rates of depression and seasonal mood challenges, and therapists here are experienced in working with these climate-related patterns. The city has a strong community identity and a sizable working-class population, with therapists frequently addressing grief, economic stress, relationship issues, and intergenerational family dynamics. The University at Buffalo and Erie County Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while private practices serve those seeking longer-term therapeutic relationships. Buffalo's proximity to Canada and its large Rust Belt peer cities also shapes a regional resilience that many therapists draw on in their work.
