Syracuse Therapists specializing in Depression

Douglas Goldschmidt

Rachelle PsyD.

Life is stressful! The American Psychological Association (2022) in their Stress in America survey found that three-quarters of adults (76%) said they have experienced health impacts due to stress in the prior month, including headache (38%), fatigue (35%), feeling nervous or anxious (34%), and/or feeling depressed or sad (33%). Together we can identify ways to reduce the stress in your life and develop ways to find more time to do the things that matter to you.

Rhea Parks

I have extensive experience working with people experiencing depression I have been able to help by providing a more holistic approach by toward and identifying triggers and developing better-coping skills.

Holly Lehman

I am drawn to working with families, namely parents and their children, as well as individuals. My knowledge exists primarily in navigating issues of trauma, grief, conflict, identity, and development of self. Supporting individuals who have experienced trauma calls for examinations of power, control, narrative, and accountability. These are all topics that I aim to lean into in my role, coupled with managing anxiety and maintaining agency in the face of fear.

Dawn Garber

In my years of practice I have found a collaborative strengths-based approach promotes the best environment for therapeutic work, creative problem solving, and lasting change. I love to meet my clients where they are, help develop their readiness and equip them for their next steps. I offer guidance and encouragement as they build competency, comfort, and confidence in their new skills and life direction. To do this, I operate from a foundation of systemic thinking.

Molly Lizzio

You're here! Congrats on making it this far! Most people I know think about going to therapy for months- sometimes years before they do this internet search. The next step is sending that e-mail, but don't worry you'll get there- take your time. Typically the people I work with are at a point where they are feeling really stuck, and just want to be happy. The couples who come all have a common trend that they need help with communication.

Tracy Carmody

Assessing level of impairment from behavioral health, substance abuse, or co-occurring disorder. Encouraging a self defined path to recovery through an integrated approach.

Michelle Stevenson

The majority of my clients are college students or young adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or having some difficulty adjusting to transitions in their lives. My goal is to provide support, offer a different perspective, and arm individuals with the tools to manage life's challenges more effectively.

Khira Fryar

Have you been struggling to find happiness? Maybe you’re always feeling like the shoe is going to drop or that you’re not good enough for the good things that happen in life. You’re not alone even though it might feel like it. If you’re here, you’ve done the hardest part: decided to look for help. THAT deserves to be celebrated and I can’t wait to celebrate with you all of your victories and journey with you on your road to healing and emotional well-being.

Brianna Gomez

Our approach allows us to work with individuals, couples, and families to collaborate and find the strength that already lies within them.

Kristina Ehmann

Our experiences demand a witness to what we have gone through. I am committed to creating a warm, safe, trusting, caring, and non-judgmental space. This will allow you to be heard but also to challenge you to think or act differently. The systemic and biopsychosocial approach that I utilize will help you to better understand the impact your emotions have on your body and how your thoughts and feelings shape your relationships.

Tracy Robinson

Life can be a challenging process. You don't have to tackle life's problems alone. Sometimes we need some extra help to be the best version of ourselves. The process begins by identifying barriers that are blocking us from achieving our desired goals. Life is an ongoing journey. Therapy can increase our self-awareness and improve our overall health and well-being. I welcome you - with open arms - to begin the therapeutic process and begin to look at those obstacles in life.

I have extensive history working with grief and loss, trauma, individuals who feel stuck or unmotivated as well as those of us just struggling with the challenges of daily life.

Alicia Murray

You’re feeling like you’re not enough; you don’t make enough, you don’t do enough. You’re feeling lost in an overwhelming world. You are surrounded by expectations of what your relationship should be, how fulfilling your career should be, how quickly you should have a family and how to parent said children. You are seeking some clarity, some solstice, some calm. You are looking for reassurance that you are enough, you are doing enough.

I use evidenced-based practices to address symptoms in mental health that create barriers for people to achieve their full potential. I offer a supportive environment focused on developing the adaptive behaviors that you can use in reaching your goals. By first identifying what's getting in the way, we use a team approach to knock down these barriers and substitute effective means, while still maintaining the behaviors that have proven helpful.
