My name is Courtney and my focus in my counseling work connects with guiding individuals to rediscover their sense of self when facing challenges. It's common for anxiety, depression, shame, and guilt to emerge during difficult times, especially times of life changes, and if this resonates with you, you are not alone. I am dedicated to offering supportive reflection and compassionate listening, empowering you to tap into your inner resilience, strengths, and sense of purpose. I specialize in working with individuals (16+) experiencing symptoms of anxiety and depression, and with those who are experiencing difficulties with life transitions, self-esteem, and stress. I have specific experience working with individuals who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQIA+), and I also provide EMDR therapy. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where we can address past challenges, current stressors, and concerns about what's next. My goal is to empower you to embrace your true self, listen to your inner voice with kindness, and cultivate deeper connections through vulnerability. I welcome you to contact me to set up a free consultation.

I am a virtual Mental Health Counselor dedicated to supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and work toward healing. My goal is to help clients reduce the weight of stress and trauma—whether rooted in the past or present—and create space for growth, connection, and hope. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, difficulties in relationships, stress from work/school or challenges connecting with others, I will walk alongside you in building tools to improve your well-being and reach your personal goals.

I believe in healing through corrective experiences. It is possible to heal from trauma & anxiety, rather than just learning coping with it! I prefer to use methods that are designed to alleviate the distress associated with painful memories. This includes Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) and other Experiential Therapy modalities that are proven to be equally as effective in a virtual setting.

Are you a college student struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues? Are you a therapist or healthcare provider seeking support to navigate the effects of trauma? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) and Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), I specialize in providing compassionate counseling services to young adults, professionals, and individuals experiencing the effects of trauma. My practice is designed specifically to support college students in navigating the unique challenges they face during this transitional time in their lives. I also work closely with therapists and healthcare providers to support their well-being and help them develop effective coping strategies. With extensive experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and childhood trauma, I provide trauma-informed care to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. With a warm and non-judgmental approach, I provide individualized care to help you build resilience, cultivate self-awareness, and thrive both academically and personally. No matter where you are on your journey, as a student, new to your field, or a seasoned professional struggling with the various aspects of life, I am here to help. Let's work together to create a brighter future for you.

My approach is down-to -earth and professional. I believe in the importance of humor and self compassion in our time together. Being transparent in therapy is crucial; meaning I will share with you why I am asking about certain things or suggesting certain ways of coping. You will find I am easy to talk to and respect how important our time together is. I have 23 years of experience in the mental health field working with people's symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression. Much of that time has been specializing in working with college students and people looking to go into helping professions (e.g. nurses, therapists, doctors)

Life often comes at you from many angles, and sometimes the weight of change, anxiety, or difficult memories can make it hard to feel like yourself. With more than six years of experience as a licensed mental health counselor, my work is built around helping adolescents and adults navigate life's transitions, work through relationship issues, find balance, and reconnect with who they know themselves to be. Specializing in life adjustments that have often been created from feelings of anxiety and even potential traumatic experiences/memories, I understand how deeply personal and layered these experiences can be. Whether you're processing a major shift or working through something that has lingered for years, you deserve care that meets you where you are. My commitment to you goes beyond the session: I am dedicated to consistently evolving and growing with you each step of the way, while also focusing on continuing education to recognize and treat the various personal and life stressors taking place in the world around us. In our work together, the focus is entirely on you, because what you're experiencing, and related symptoms, deserve to be treated. Using evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic therapy, we'll move toward self-healing in a way that feels grounded and sustainable. Support, motivation, and accountability are at the heart of how I practice. You can also expect therapeutic homework from time to time, with real-world opportunities to practice the skills we explore in session. Bringing those tools into your daily life is, I believe, one of the most powerful ways to set the tone and get us back to where we want to be. My path to becoming a therapist, much like life itself, has not always been linear and clear. Growing up in a divorced household, change and adjustment were constants. It was through my own experience in therapy that I discovered something remarkable: healing is genuinely possible, and with the right support, so is transformation. That discovery became the foundation of my practice. What was given to me through that work is exactly what I want to offer you. Change is achievable, on any level, and you don't have to find your way there alone. When I'm not in session, you'll likely find me cheering on a favorite team, getting lost in a psychological thriller, or spending time with family.

HI. I AM THELMA AND HAVE BEEN SERVING THE COMMUNITY AND UPSTATE REGION FOR MORE THAN 35 YEARS. I AM HERE TO HELP , EDUCATE AND GUIDE YOU TO A BETTER EXPERIENCE IN ALL AREAS OF YOUR LIFE. BECAUSE TALKING ABOUT LIFE IS AS IMPORTANT AS LIVING IT. Thelma Costello, MS, LMHC, PC

I enjoy helping to support people as they navigate through the many different waves of life. I help to create a warm, non judgmental, and supportive environment where clients are free to talk about their stories. I draw from a number of different treatment modalities, but most importantly, meet the client where they are at. While each individual's experience is unique, I regularly work with clients around topics related to anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, relationship concerns, sexuality, ADHD, life's transitions, familial conflict and many more. In this busy world, it can be difficult to make time to focus on your needs. Therapy provides a space to do so and share your story in a safe and non judgmental environment. Sessions are a time to practice self care, utilize your strengths, and develop tools that help you gain a better understanding of you. I would love to have the chance to work with you and hear your story. Currently, sessions are teletherapy based allowing you more flexibility to be in a familiar setting and join from any mobile or desktop device. I would love to help you with the process of learning more about you and develop the tools to navigate the many waves of life.

I help clients who are trying to manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem or relationship issues and life transitions. Often clients are navigating a change in their lives, such as their educational path, career, or relationships. I support clients through these transitions and provide a safe, therapeutic environment where they can explore their individuality and strengths. Clients are also supported through the process of examining maladaptive patterns of thought and/or behavior with the use of Psychodynamic, Relational and CBT frameworks. These approaches, combined with a strong therapeutic relationship, help to foster an increased awareness and greater sense of empowerment, which can increase overall quality of life.

I've worked extensively with university and graduate students for over eight years, including completing my postdoctoral training at Cornell Health, and I'm deeply familiar with the academic, personal, and relational pressures that often accompany campus life. My approach is grounded in the psychodynamic tradition and trauma theory, with a focus on how early relationships and implicit emotional learning shape present experience. It is experiential in nature, emphasizing attention to emotional and bodily experience in the present moment. I draw from IFS, AEDP, Coherence Therapy, and Hakomi to help clients move beyond insight toward lasting emotional change.

I'm Lex E Santí. Therapist. Writer. Professional overthinker. If you’ve ever tried to “just relax” and immediately thought of seventeen reasons why that’s impossible — you’re my kind of person. I work with people sorting through relationships, anxiety, creative blocks, and the general weirdness of being human. My sessions mix curiosity, structure, and the occasional well-timed eye roll at life’s absurdities. Before private practice, I spent years in crisis intervention and higher ed mental health. Now, I help clients rewrite their stories — with more agency, more humor, and fewer plot holes. Licensed in NY and DE. Individual and group sessions available.
