I have over 20 years of experience as an Expressive Arts Therapist working with adults, families and adolescents focusing on trauma, anxiety, loss and life transitions. As a former educator I help you understand the Why, as an artist I use creativity and mindfulness at your level of comfort to offer tools for you to heal. Always led by compassion and enthusiasm for helping you create wellness throughout your life. For more information; www.ckcreativwellness.com
Are you feeling alone and stuck in a transitional period in your life and that your mind is filled with negative thoughts directed towards yourself creating conflict or distance in your relationships with others? You are feeling hopeless and are having low energy, like you are about to give up? While you may not know the tools to help you, you do know what has not been working for you. Together we can build your own toolbox for you to help embrace control in your life!
I have had extensive experience with trauma in individuals from adolescence to late adulthood. I believe that trauma looks and feels different to every person. Two people experiencing the same event will have different outlooks and understandings of it. A traumatic event can take many forms. I want to help you pick up on where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors come from, even if you have never experienced “trauma".
Hi — I’m John, and my mission is to help you get out of your own way. I earned my Master’s from SUNY Albany’s School of Social Welfare and have spent over a decade working with adults, teens, and families from every background — from New York to Oregon and back again. Together, we’ll challenge the worries, thoughts, and beliefs that hold you back — so you can clear a path toward the life you actually want.
Therapy is a shared experience to explore past and present aspects of your life to help you grow and thrive, becoming the best version of yourself. I value building a safe meaningful connection to allow that work to be done.
Hello there — I’m Nic 👋🏼
If you’re looking for a provider who doesn’t just listen but truly hears you, you’re in the right place. My goal is for you to leave each session with clarity, confidence, and those meaningful “ah‐ha” moments that move you forward.
With 20+ years in healthcare — including experience as a military corpsman, dental assistant, cardiac sonographer, and both a labor & delivery and behavioral health nurse — I bring a broad, compassionate, and grounded perspective to the work we’ll do together.
Let’s build a strong foundation for your well‐being, growth, and long‐term success.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Troy
Finding the right therapist in Troy, NY starts with identifying what you want to work on. Whether you're looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or another concern, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in that area can make a meaningful difference. Troy and the surrounding Capital District — including Albany, Cohoes, and Watervliet — have a range of providers offering approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care.
Beyond specialty, consider the logistics that matter to you: whether you prefer in-person sessions or virtual visits, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's communication style feels like a good match. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if you'd like to move forward.
Therapy in the Troy area can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options are available when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as little as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
