Hi — I’m John, and my mission is to help you get out of your own way. I earned my Master’s from SUNY Albany’s School of Social Welfare and have spent over a decade working with adults, teens, and families from every background — from New York to Oregon and back again. Together, we’ll challenge the worries, thoughts, and beliefs that hold you back — so you can clear a path toward the life you actually want.
Are you feeling alone and stuck in a transitional period in your life and that your mind is filled with negative thoughts directed towards yourself creating conflict or distance in your relationships with others? You are feeling hopeless and are having low energy, like you are about to give up? While you may not know the tools to help you, you do know what has not been working for you. Together we can build your own toolbox for you to help embrace control in your life!
I have had extensive experience with trauma in individuals from adolescence to late adulthood. I believe that trauma looks and feels different to every person. Two people experiencing the same event will have different outlooks and understandings of it. A traumatic event can take many forms. I want to help you pick up on where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors come from, even if you have never experienced “trauma".
Hello there — I’m Nic 👋🏼
If you’re looking for a provider who doesn’t just listen but truly hears you, you’re in the right place. My goal is for you to leave each session with clarity, confidence, and those meaningful “ah‐ha” moments that move you forward.
With 20+ years in healthcare — from military corpsman, dental assistant, cardiac sonographer, a labor & delivery and behavioral health nurse — I bring a broad, compassionate, and grounded perspective to the work we’ll do together.
Let’s build a strong foundation for your well‐being, growth, and long‐term success.
I have over 20 years of experience as an Expressive Arts Therapist working with adults, families and adolescents focusing on trauma, anxiety, loss and life transitions. As a former educator I help you understand the Why, as an artist I use creativity and mindfulness at your level of comfort to offer tools for you to heal. Always led by compassion and enthusiasm for helping you create wellness throughout your life. For more information; www.ckcreativwellness.com
Welcome! I am a mother, former school social worker, reiki master, artist, and an empath with almost a decade of clinical experience. I help anxious people transform their lives, empower themselves, and gain unstoppable confidence. I specialize in helping you navigate big life transitions, whether that be in school, relationships, career, new parenthood, or simply wanting clarity on what your next move is. You've come to the right place.
I strive to practice integrity, humility, competence, transparency, courage, and collaboration in my personal and professional life. For more than a decade, I have served at-risk populations through nonprofit organizations in New York, Texas, and Massachusetts. My work brought me into clients’ homes, women’s clinics, schools, and therapeutic day programs. I’ve gained invaluable experience and skills engaging with Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in a private practice infusion clinic. I currently support clients through telehealth and in-person sessions with customized, eclectic, evidence-based treatment plans. These plans help them gain insight into habitual thought patterns and behaviors, promoting nonjudgmental awareness and curiosity by building emotional and experiential skills.

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 Saratoga Springs
Searching for therapists in Saratoga Springs starts with finding the right clinical fit for what you want support with. You may be looking for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare Saratoga therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
In a smaller city like Saratoga Springs, local therapist availability may vary by specialty, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across New York while still letting you work with a licensed therapist who fits your preferences. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Saratoga Springs can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make mental health care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, review estimated costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse profiles, confirm coverage for your plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
