Goooooood day to you, person seeking a therapist! I'm Karina Le, a licensed masters social worker who uses they/them pronouns. I'm a therapist who is passionate about walking alongside clients as they discover (or rediscover) their voice, reclaim their space, and reimagine what it means to live authentically. With a clinical foundation rooted in trauma-informed care, I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent clients, people of color, and those navigating complex family dynamics or cultural transitions. I earned my Masters of Social Work from Nazareth and hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Rochester Institute of Technology. My clinical experience spans individual and group therapy over the past few years, including inpatient adolescent mental health care and work focused on CBT, DBT, identity development, and support for BIPOC students. I also have experiencing in case management during a time spent shadowing case managers in community mental health settings. What really grounds my work is a deep understanding of what it means to perform for others at the expense of self, and the transformative power of therapy to unlearn those patterns. I'm especially passionate about working with clients in transition: young adults entering new chapters, adults shifting paths, and anyone beginning to ask, “Who am I, really?” My approach is curious, nonjudgmental, and always rooted in the belief that therapy can be a radical act of self-love. Please note that I am a part of a greater clinic at Renew Hope and Healing, specifically at their Henrietta location. To schedule an appointment with me, you will have to call our staff at 585-398-8835 and request to work with me specifically, or through our online scheduling at https://renewhopeandhealing.com/online-appointment-request/ I am currently able to accept Excellus and other BCBS insurances, MVP Health Care, and Aetna insurances. I am currently waiting on United to get back to me about being able to take their insurances. If you are out-of-network, I would highly recommend contacting the billing team at Renew via our phone number or at our email billing@renewhopeandhealing.com regarding any questions you have about being able to work with me and still use your out-of-network insurance.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I offer individual, couples, and family therapy to adults and children of all ages. Convenient evening and weekend appointments are available to accommodate your schedule.

I strive to maintain a warm and non-judgmental stance in therapy. I believe strongly in the collaborative process and will work actively with you to help achieve your therapeutic goals. I am happy to speak with you about any questions or concerns you may have about beginning therapy.

I have worked with college and graduate students for many years. Many have struggled with issues including low self esteem, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, learning disabilities, family conflict and socialization difficulties. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques ranging from traditional “talk” therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR, as needed. My primary goal is always to help the student to feel better, by gaining greater insight and understanding as to better ways to address their situation.

On the outside, it might look like you’re keeping things together—classes, sports, work, relationships—but inside you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or like something just isn’t feeling right. I work with college students and student-athletes who are navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and past experiences that continue to show up in the present. In therapy, we slow things down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and find practical ways to feel more grounded and steady again. A lot of my work focuses on grief, loss, and unresolved experiences, using EMDR to help process what feels stuck alongside strategies for structure, motivation, and balance. You don’t need the right words or a clear explanation to start—just a sense that something has been weighing on you. Therapy can be a space to sort through it and move forward at a pace that feels manageable. Availability is flexible in evenings and on weekends.

Group practice
Kingston, NY

Evolutionary Holistic Healing infuses mind-body practices into the therapeutic process to help clients explore healing beyond traditional psychotherapeutic talk-therapy. Our mission is to emphasize the importance of integrating psychotherapy with movement, music, aromatherapy, artworks, nature, and breath work to establish equilibrium; therein, inviting the body to join the mind in its establishment of therapeutic attunement. We view each person as a whole being made up of many parts working in concert with one another to fully embrace the evolutionary progression of healing. We believe that a person is not defined by their condition; but rather, that individuals can achieve good health by strengthening their emotional, physical, social and mental wellness. We strive to mindfully stand in the entire experience of being human. It is then we can whole-heartedly step into the power of self-awareness, self-empowerment, and self-love.

Life is stressful. Change and acceptance are difficult & sometimes seem downright impossible. As a psychotherapist my goal is to help you: feel supported; gain confidence; & cope with life's-stressors. Together we will create a flexible treatment plan 'tailor-made' for you. You will gain insight, learn coping skills, feel and become self-empowered. I have over 32 years’ experience helping clients/students suffering from anxiety, depression, loss/grief, & relationship issues. My experience also includes teaching all levels of psychology, supervising therapists, and helping people deal with life's transitions. Remember, our sessions will be 'tailor-made' to meet your wants and needs. And, to help me fulfill my promise to you of 'tailor-made sessions,' I adhere to the following mandate of Carl Gustav Jung: "Know your theories well - then place them on the shelf when in a room with the miracle of a human soul." Problems that we cannot 'solve,' together we WILL 'manage.' Phone call inquiries guarantee a response because I check my voicemail frequently. Emails - not as quickly. Please inquire about my sliding scale fee to meet your financial needs.

I also have extensive experience serving the LGBTQ community (and those who are questioning if they are), both individually and as couples. I take an affirming approach to all kinds of concerns such as coming out, relationships, spirituality, and finding community. I also offer specialized services for transgender and gender expansive people, including transition support (with specialized training through WPATH). My hours are flexible to fit your schedule, and I offer a sliding fee scale and take any out-of-network benefits for insurance (many college students, especially those from out of the area have out of network insurance benefits. Ask me if you would like help navigating insurance). Please contact me at my practice, The Rainbow Couch, via email, phone, or through my website, to find out more information or to schedule an appointment. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I’m Reeti Kumar, and yes, therapy really can make life feel lighter. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing virtual therapy in Rhode Island, New York, and Connecticut. I help people get back to living the kind of life they actually want — not just the one they’re pushing through. I love working with college & grad students who are motivated to make changes but maybe feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in a loop of overthinking (hi, anxiety and perfectionism). In our sessions, you’ll find a mix of evidence-based techniques including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, (because science works!) and down-to-earth conversations (because we’re both human). I also treat OCD with Exposure and Response Prevention - the gold standard to help you say "No way" to those compulsions making you late to class! I bring in a multicultural lens, helping clients explore their identities, navigate family dynamics, and find balance between culture and expectations. I offer a warm, judgment-free space where you can say what’s really on your mind (yes, even the “weird” thoughts — we all have them). Together, we’ll work on untangling unhelpful thinking patterns and building habits that support a calmer, healthier life.
