Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Forgiveness is complicated and cannot be forced. In therapy, forgiveness is not about pretending something didn’t hurt or excusing harmful behavior. Instead, we explore what forgiveness might mean for you—whether that is letting go, setting boundaries, grieving, or finding a way to move forward without carrying the same weight.

Ebony Woney
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Forgiveness is a complex and deeply personal process that does not mean excusing harm or forgetting your experience. I help clients explore what forgiveness means for them, process unresolved pain, and release emotional burdens that may be holding them back. Together, we’ll focus on healing in a way that honors your story while creating space for peace and growth.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
Within the Black prophetic tradition, Forgiveness is a tool for the internal liberation of the survivor, not an obligation to the harmer. We explore how to release the "head trash" of past trauma so it no longer dictates your future autonomy. In this practice, we view the choice to forgive as a radical act of self-reclamation.

Amherst is a suburban town of Buffalo and home to the North Campus of the University at Buffalo, one of the largest universities in the State University of New York system, bringing a substantial student population and the mental health demands that come with a large public research university. The town's generally affluent suburban character contrasts with the significant challenges faced by neighboring Buffalo, and many residents access mental health services in the broader Buffalo metro area alongside local providers. UB's counseling services are a primary resource for students, and a private therapy sector serves Amherst's established families and professional residents. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity development stress at a large research university, anxiety, family and relationship issues, and the transitional challenges of navigating life in a prosperous suburb adjacent to a struggling urban center.
