Life can be overwhelming, especially when you're navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, trauma, or the uncertainty of infertility and perinatal challenges. I offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are. Together, we’ll unpack the patterns, stories, and stressors that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control.

I work with adults of all ages with a focus on supporting individuals through life transitions: career burnout, relationship shifts, identity changes, and the complexities of becoming (or deciding not to become) a parent.

Therapist

Virtual • New York, NY


Beginning therapy can feel like a big step and I am here to work collaboratively with you in a safe, supportive, and liberated space. I would like to help you feel less alone with difficult feelings and experience a greater sense of self-agency and fulfillment in your life. I have over 15 years of experience and extensive post-graduate training specializing in depression, anxiety, ADHD, complex trauma, issues related to identity, and I offer particular attunement to individuals who identify as LGBTQAI+.

My background is in psychoanalytic psychotherapy/psychoanalysis and my approach to therapy is determined by the needs of each individual, which will make our time together a powerful space for self-reflection and growth. Our work together will be an opportunity for you to share your pain and perhaps for the first time, feel heard and understood.

My style is warm, active, and deeply nurturing. If you're having difficulty getting out of bed in the morning, struggling from what seems like uncontrollable worry, or feeling lost and isolated, I am happy to connect with you. You can reach me via a phone call, a text, or email at 347-378-7784 and I will get back to you within 24 hours, Monday-Friday.

Hello, I’m Glenda G. Momrelle-Clarke, LMHC-D, LPC, a licensed mental health counselor, educator, and Clinical Director of Soul Discovery Mental Health Counseling Services. I am passionate about helping individuals, couples, families, and leaders navigate life's challenges while fostering emotional wellness, personal growth, and meaningful change.

I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop practical skills, and move toward the life they desire. Whether you are seeking support for personal challenges, relationship difficulties, or leadership-related stress, I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey toward greater wellness and resilience.

Gabrielle Nicolas

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I am a triple board‐certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM), and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). This unique combination allows me to care for individuals across the entire lifespan, with a deep understanding of how physical health, hormones, trauma, environment, and life transitions shape mental well‐being.

My approach is collaborative, integrative, and rooted in both conventional psychiatry and functional medicine principles. I work to understand the root causes of symptoms—not just treat them—by considering biological, psychological, hormonal, nutritional, and environmental factors. Treatment plans may include medication management, lifestyle strategies, mind‐body approaches, and supportive therapy.

My style is warm, patient‐centered, and grounded in partnership. We build your plan together, ensuring it is evidence‐based, individualized, and flexible as you grow. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, or complex mind‐body concerns, my goal is to meet you where you are and support you toward lasting emotional and physical wellness.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Syracuse

Finding postpartum therapists in Syracuse starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or postpartum support. A perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal specialized training in care during pregnancy and after birth.

In a smaller city like Syracuse, the number of local in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your search while making it easier to fit care around infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Beyond specialty, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that match your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns.

Therapy in Syracuse can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who match your needs, lets you check insurance coverage for your specific plan and location, and offers upfront cost estimates before you book. You can compare profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
