Women's Issues
Amanda Martell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I don't need to name how tough it is being a woman in today's society and even more so being a woman of color in our society. You live it. I live it. Whether you are cisgender, transgender, or figuring out who you are, the complexities of womanhood are so complex. On top of that, finding your tribe and support system while juggling the demands of being a woman and honestly just plain BEING is stressful. Let's create a safe space to find support and talk about it.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC

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.
