Jennifer Downie

Jennifer Downie

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • Buffalo, NY


I came to therapy from teaching, and that background shapes how I show up: I'm used to adapting to who's in front of me, reading what's unsaid, and finding an approach that actually fits the person — not just the presenting concern.

I work with adolescents and adults on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, maternal mental health, grief, and family stress. EMDR is a core part of my practice — particularly for clients whose past experiences still affect how they feel and function today, even when they'd rather they didn't.

I keep a small, intentional caseload. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit, I offer a free phone consultation before we commit to anything.

Lindsey Bala

Lindsey Bala

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Amherst, NY


Hi, I’m Lindsey, a psychotherapist who works with adult (18+) individuals navigating a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges. I believe the most effective therapy is a collaborative process where we work together as a team to identify what’s not working and build practical, meaningful solutions that fit your life. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and actively involved in your own healing.

We begin by building a strong therapeutic alliance—creating a space that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and grounded in trust. From there, we explore your specific needs, patterns, and goals in a way that feels respectful of your pace and readiness.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lockport

Searching for therapists in Lockport starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, how they describe their style, and what you can expect if you book.

In a smaller city like Lockport, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger New York markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in New York. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether their approach fits how you prefer to work. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and session format in one place.

Therapy in Lockport can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
