I approach from a person-centered and strengths-based perspective. I believe that therapy is a joint journey where you are the expert in yourself and your life and my role as your therapist is to support you on this journey by providing information, skills, resources, and offering alternative perspectives. Please note at this time, I am only able to accept insurance for those located in NY. For those in Texas, services are cash only.
Are you someone who feels overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or relationship challenges and want a safe space to be heard? You may be struggling with self-esteem, managing emotions, or navigating life transitions. My goal is to help you build coping skills, gain clarity, and feel more confident in yourself. Above all, I want to support you in creating meaningful changes so you can feel balanced, connected, and resilient in daily life. I help people who feel stressed, stuck, or overwhelmed find healthier ways to cope and move forward. Together, we’ll build tools that fit your life—whether that’s easing anxiety, improving self-esteem, or navigating life changes—so you can feel more confident, balanced, and supported. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to do it alone. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can share your story, feel understood, and work at your own pace. If you’re ready to start your journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
Who am I? What is important to me? What do I believe in? What do I want out of life? I know firsthand what it is like to face these questions, especially when rebuilding after disappointment, trauma, and loss. In my own experience and in my experience working with clients, I have found that the most difficult times of our lives can be the catalyst to our greatest growth, and eventually, a sense of peace we had not thought possible. My primary areas of focus are working with clients struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, and spiritual concerns. I integrate acceptance and mindfulness-based practices with evidence-based approaches to tailor a therapy experience that best fits your needs and goals. I believe those of us who struggle the most have the greatest resources for making real change, for building rich, full, and meaningful lives. Let’s work together to navigate life's difficulties, and in the face of challenges, be present, open up, and do what matters.
I work with individuals seeking to enhance their opportunities for growth in professional, and personal arenas, as well as with those currently struggling through emotional and mental challenges. Techniques include Psychodynamic, Psychoanalytic, Cognitive Behavioral and Mindfulness Techniques for Individuals and Couples. I offer appointments via Telehealth only. Please visit my web-site www.upper-east-psychotherapy.com. Sessions are offered via Telehealth (we see and hear one another) using a secure medical web-portal that is HIPPA compliant.
Hi, I'm Dr. Franks! When I see students, I conduct an initial session where I provide a diagnosis (if present) and can recommend and provide medications and/or therapy for treatment. I enjoy working with students because their task to start living on their own and develop their own identity is uniquely challenging and exciting. I can help with the diagnosis and treatment of things like depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, psychosis, etc. Symptoms that my patients commonly struggle with include worry, sadness, suicidal thinking, stress, insomnia, and trouble concentrating. I am passionate about working with motivated students to help them thrive during their time in college. I completed my undergraduate education at the University of Denver, earning degrees in Biology, Chemistry, and French. I completed my medical and residency training at the University of Colorado, where I had the privilege of serving as Chief Resident. I have since worked in private practice. I look forward to working with you!
🌟 Embodied Hope For Your Journey to Healing and Growth 🌟 Dealing with trauma can be really tough, whether it's from a specific event or something that's been with you for a long time. It can affect so many parts of your life, from your mental health to your relationships to your sleep. Doing it all while keeping up with classes? That's exhausting. It helps to have someone who knows trauma work and can support you while you gauge how to pace your healing process. I provide therapy for many different types of trauma: emotional neglect, abuse, combat, complex PTSD, intimate partner violence, sexual assault/harassment, bullying, accidents, medical illness, pregnancy/birth, and toxic relationships. I'm experienced in gold standard therapies for trauma, nightmares, insomnia, anxiety, and OCD. It's important to me to help people to understand and work with - not in spite of - their nervous system. I've been through a lot of different experiences in my career, working in hospital and outpatient settings. Real progress comes from having a place where our nervous system can gradually rebuild a sense of safety, grow in flexibility, and practice new learning. My goal is to make therapy that kind of a place. I believe in using therapy strategies that are proven to be effective, but that doesn't mean sessions have to be rigid or boring. Depending on the client, I'll pull in painting, novels and movies, music, Minecraft, sports, and comedians. I'm also always learning and growing as a therapist to make sure you're getting the best care possible. Although therapy progress isn't always a straight line, learning new skills and ways of thinking almost always has ups and downs. That's completely normal. It's totally understandable if you wish you could feel better right away. I'll do my best to create a fluid plan, tailored just for you, to help you head in that direction. You don't have to be alone. Someone I value once told me that sometimes we carry hope for others until they're ready to pick it back up themselves. Let me know if you'd like to talk about what that might look like for you to be ready to carry your own hope again.
Art therapy is for the individual who has difficulty verbalizing what they are going through. Creating art helps the person work through the trauma, anxiety, depression etc. One does NOT need to have any art experience knowledge or talent! Only an open mind to exploring their feelings and emotions through a creative lens!
Finding someone you feel comfortable with is important when searching for a therapist. Clients say I am warm, compassionate and non-judgmental, and provide a comfortable, relaxed and safe environment. My style is down to earth, and you will find it easy to talk to me and feel understood. My clients are individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, employment or relationship problems, or various life transitions. They may feel anxious, sad, angry, frustrated, depressed or confused. Sometimes they feel overwhelmed by their feelings, relationships, or life circumstances. Managing work or school, family and friendships is often demanding and stressful. I use an interactive approach to help clients re-examine fixed patterns of behavior that keep them stuck in unsatisfying situations. Past experiences, including relationships, can sometimes overload our thoughts and feelings. Increased awareness and new insights can often free clients to make more authentic and creative choices. I help clients find and build on their strengths, so that no matter what the reasons were that brought them to therapy, they become able to appreciate themselves in a deep and lasting way. Taking the step to call someone takes courage, and I look forward to receiving your call.
Life can feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming, especially when you are dealing with anxiety, low mood, stress, or big life changes. I offer a supportive space to slow down, talk things through, and start feeling more steady again. Care is personalized, collaborative, and grounded in respect for your experience. My work centers on psychiatric care that combines conversation, practical therapy tools, and medication management, so our visits support both how you’re feeling and how you function in everyday life. My practice focuses on psychiatric care that includes both medication management and therapy-informed support, so our work together always addresses treatment and conversation in the same space. For psychotherapy, I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, adjustment challenges, and major life transitions, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to build practical skills, clarity, and confidence. For medication management, I treat a variety of conditions including depression, anxiety, mood changes, trauma, OCD, bipolar disorder, sleep problems, and many other concerns. My approach combines traditional psychiatric treatments with holistic practices such as mindfulness and emotional well-being techniques, fostering balance and resilience while treating the whole person. You don’t have to have everything figured out to get started. This is simply a place to feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward feeling more like yourself again.
Whether you're struggling with a specific issue or just have the feeling there should be more to life, I can help you explore possibilities for change. My goal is to provide my clients with the knowledge and understanding of how relationships work and how problems can be resolved in the most challenging situations. I believe every person grows from the positive and negative relationships they've been in or are currently in. It is my mission to help clients establish resources and build upon strengths to enhance happiness in every relationship.

Young adulthood is a time of transitions, growth and self discovery. While many new challenges can be exciting, this time of exploration can also become overwhelming. There can be a lot of “shoulds”, comparisons and uncertainty. My office is a safe space to process through all of these thoughts and feelings without feeling judged or criticized. Together we work to figure out a path to help you build the necessary skills and insights to launch into the adult life you are seeking. I love working with young adults and college students to help them embrace this season of their life. As a Registered Yoga Teacher I value the connection between the mind and body and what stress does to our overall well being. With that being said- if yoga/meditation/mindfulness is not your thing it does not need to be involved in your treatment. I always work to creatively match the evidenced based treatment modalities I am trained in to fit a client’s unique goals and strengths. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at 585-432-0717 or through email at maryvanvoorhislcsw@gmail.com to learn more about my practice or to set up a brief initial call to see if my practice might be a good fit for you.
