Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Corning, NY covered by United Healthcare

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with 2 years of advance psychiatric practice and a total of 15 years of experience in healthcare. I specialize in evidence-based care for adults living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, and life transitions, combining thoughtful medication management with practical strategies that help clients build a deeper understanding of their mental health.

In addition to my clinical practice, I am an author and whole-body wellness advocate. My book, BePurBold: A Woman's Journey to Whole Body Wellness, reflects my belief that lasting mental health is rooted in lifestyle, resilience, and whole-person well-being. My goal is to offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, valued, and active partners in their own care.

I implement a strengths-based perspective methodology. This means I take a holistic and individualistic approach by working through your personal history, environment, lifestyle, and spirituality. Your past is not indicative of your future. Everyone has a personal story that needs to be heard; therefore, I hope to build a partnership that's rooted in a judgment-free environment.

I hold compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive space where you will feel welcome and safe to explore and access deeply-held feelings, release emotional blockages, experience shifts, and gain clarity. I provide warmth as well as direct and honest insight. I have nearly three decades of experience working in various healing and teaching capacities with highly diverse populations of adults, children and families. My approach to therapy is relational and interactive, creating a comforting environment where you feel seen, heard, and develop tools to guide your progress and growth.

Therapy is a safe space for you to explore and be heard. During our time together my role is to help foster a safe space and meet you where you feel your needs are. Together we can discuss the stressors which have you reaching out for therapy.

Ms. Elsa I. Arce is a Bilingual (Spanish-Speaking) LMHC, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner, Abundance Coach and a Shamanic Reiki Master. Trained as a traditional clinical psychotherapist, she provides therapy for children, young adults, couples, and families with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, attention-deficit, trauma, substance abuse, domestic violence, and family relational stress. In addition, she practices non-traditional Energy Psychology therapies that are also evidenced based. Elsa has a private practice in Westchester NY.

Ms. Arce uses energy healing methods called Emotional Freedom Techniques. While tapping on specific meridian points on the body, and talking about the specific problem, it effectively release fears, overwhelming emotions, and negative thought patterns. It calms the nervous system allowing the body and mind to return to their natural healing state.

Do you have dreams of a happier and healthier lifestyle? Do you know what you want in life but feel stuck due to past traumatic experiences, stress, anxiety, or self esteem issues?

I work with young women on life issues that have become too heavy to manage on their own.

We'll use therapy to identify past experiences that has impacted your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You'll replace those negative narratives that leave you feeling stuck with a positive and motivating outlook and work towards a plan that is attainable and unique to your personal goals.

Sis you deserve healing! You matter!
