At Lotus Integrative Mental Health Counseling, we offer personalized, holistic therapy for individuals in the Capital Region, NY. Our approach is tailored to your unique needs, drawing on evidence-based methods such as CBT, ACT, Expressive Arts Therapy, and trauma-focused treatment. Whether you’re setting boundaries, navigating loss, managing anxiety or depression, or working to break old patterns, we’re here to support your journey toward healing and growth.

Like the lotus flower that rises from muddy waters, trauma survivors can emerge from pain with strength, clarity, and resilience. This process of transformation—though deeply personal—is both possible and profoundly empowering.

Sometimes, even when life appears full, it can feel heavy or unfulfilled. You might wonder why happiness still feels out of reach. Your story is unique, and we’re here to walk alongside you. At our therapy practice, we help clients heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions—with compassion and understanding every step of the way.

There’s no one-size-fits-all path to healing. Together, we’ll explore what feels right for you—whether that’s traditional talk therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, or holistic and expressive approaches. Most importantly, we provide a safe, supportive space where you can feel seen, understood, and more like yourself again.
