Grief counselors and therapists in Syracuse, NY

Hi there and welcome!

My priority is supporting clients on their journeys towards personal healing & growth.

In 2010, I received my MSW/LMSW. While doing outpatient clinical work at the NYC non-profit agency JBFCS, I became an LCSW. In 2016, I began to establish my private psychotherapy practice, focusing on young and professional adults presenting with a broad variety of life challenges.

In therapy I provide an environment that will allow you to express yourself freely and openly. I am genuine and supportive, but can be direct and challenge you to adapt your thinking when necessary. I strive for my clients to feel more focused, emotionally regulated, and confident. I work with adults who are suffering from anxiety including OCD and panic, as well as depression, grief, and relationship issues.

I am Shari Weiss, PsyD, a licensed clinical psychologist with a decade of experience providing evidence based care. My approach is warm, empathic, and collaborative. I work with individuals and families across the lifespan who are struggling with anxiety, mood, or life transitions and are ready to better understand themselves and feel more in control of their lives.

Psychiatric provider with experience supporting children, adults, and older adults, I provide compassionate, holistic, evidence-based psychiatric care tailored to your needs. Through comprehensive assessments, personalized screenings, lab testing, psychotherapy, medication management, and education, I empower you to understand your treatment and potential responses.

Hi, I'm Chinedu Sylvia Morales, a board certified psychiatrist Mental Nurse practitioner dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges with confidence. My goal is to create a comfortable, judgement free space where you feel genuinely heard. Prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!

I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel seen, heard, understood, and supported. With more than 20 years of experience in mental health, community healthcare, education, and non-profit settings, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and families through life's most challenging moments. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you build on your strengths, deepen self-awareness, and move toward a life that feels balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

I’m a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York with a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University. I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, and the lasting impact of difficult or overwhelming life experiences. I provide therapy in both English and Mandarin and enjoy working with clients from diverse cultural and bicultural backgrounds.

I have a particular interest in understanding how early experiences can shape the way we see ourselves, relate to others, and respond to stress in the present. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, or feeling overwhelmed even when things may look okay from the outside.

I approach therapy with warmth, authenticity, and deep respect for each client’s story. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood and supported as you develop greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and new ways of responding to the challenges in your life.

If you're looking for a therapist who is direct and will challenge you, I might be a good fit. I'm not a therapist to just sit, listen, and provide head nods. My approach is straight forward and transparent. I'm able to probe if needed and provide honest and direct feedback when necessary. While I'm here to listen, my priority is to help people improve their lives. I enjoy working with Trauma, Anxiety and OCD especially.

In these uncertain times, I can assure you that I operate from a feminist lens and am LGBTQIA 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ affirming/culturally aware.

I can happily provide gender affirming care and ESA (emotional support animal) letters.
