College can be exciting, but it can also bring a lot of stress, pressure, and big transitions. Whether you're struggling with your mental health, navigating friendships or family dynamics, or just trying to figure out who you are and where you're headed, therapy can help. I’m an experienced therapist who works with college students and young adults in a supportive, non-judgmental space. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness tools, and insight-oriented work to help you build self-awareness, manage stress, improve relationships, and feel more confident in yourself. I also have specialized training in working with trauma and chronic stress, and I help clients make sense of the past so they can feel better in the present and create a meaningful path forward. I've worked with individuals from many different backgrounds, and I tailor each session to your unique needs and goals. If you're thinking about therapy—or even if you're not sure—reach out for a free phone consultation. We can talk about what’s going on and see if we’re a good fit.

We offer trauma-focused strengths-based therapy to individuals, caregivers, and families. When working with children, families will be engaged in play therapy sessions to encourage bonding, communication, and growth. With adolescents and adults, using CBT techniques, we will focus on replacing negative thinking with positive self-talk and adapting positive coping mechanisms. Through Somatic Experiencing techniques, we can tap into physical and emotional symptoms associated with trauma -- locked into the body -- and guide you into identifying and utilizing the innate healing capacity in your body.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
North Tonawanda, NY

To be seen and known by others is an incredible feeling of connection but it means being authentic and vulnerable. Sadly, we live in a time with the illusion of connection while being more disconnected than ever. You may feel disconnected from others and even from yourself. Though you are a gift to this world, it is often blocked and unexpressed. This may leave you feeling alone and invisible. The truth is, you may be starving for deeper connection and that starvation looks like depression, anxiety, stress, and more. When you are living disconnected, you are abandoning yourself. Thankfully, you have a beautiful inner voice. I help you redefine your view of barriers (I call it protection), frustration around recurring struggles, failures, shame+fears through a lens of compassion, curiosity, and courage. My working style is non-judgmental, and I endeavor to bring curiosity, humor, empathy, patience, and respect to our relationship. I warmly invite you to reach out by phone or email through my website and schedule a free initial consultation to explore how we might work together to help you live a life of purpose and connection with self and others

I am a licensed clinical psychologist (in the states of Michigan, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio) who has been practicing for over 10 years. I have years of experience working with college students as I am a former College Counseling Center Director and worked in counseling centers as well as have seen college students in my private practice. I have years of experience providing both clinically and culturally competent therapy (meaning I collaborate with students to address topics they want to in therapy using tools/strategies that have been proven helpful and I take into consideration a student's various social identities and how that may impact how they experience the world). I find that I work well with students who are working through life transitions, adjustments, relationship stressors, experiencing anxiety(including those who experience social anxiety) depression, a desire to increase their self-esteem, racial trauma, or are in need increasing their overall coping skills.

Have you ever experienced a feeling of constant worry or intrusive thoughts that you just can't get out of your head? Perhaps you experience a constant stream of "what ifs" for all of the possibilities that may happen or worry about being in new social situations. These feelings are particularly prevalent for college students, since you are managing a rigorous course load, creating new relationships and figuring out how to be an adult. It can be totally overwhelming, defeating and exhausting, and can get in the way of you living your life and having the college experience you’ve always imagined. I specialize in working with young adults who experience anxiety, social phobias and OCD. Reach out to schedule a free 15 minute consultation to see if we can be good fit!

I'm a clinical psychologist and a trained psychoanalyst. I believe that what promotes growth and mental health is the process of putting real but hard to see aspects of your experience into words. This decreases their power and brings them more to heel for you. This is different from challenging thoughts or skill building. You as the patient should have clear evidence in therapy that you're coming to understand yourself better and more fully. Old, stuck ways of thinking should slowly give way to the ability to think more effectively about what is and what can be. Your sense of 'you' should grow wider and more secure, and your ability live and act with purpose of your choosing should slowly build.

Hi, My name is Marissa Klejbuk and I am so glad you are here taking your first step in finding support! I have a passion in helping people find new ways of managing and working through stressors, especially big life changes like starting college, moving or starting a new job. I also have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, identity, LGBTQ+, intimate partner violence, and sexual trauma. My approach is affirming, holistic, collaborative, and compassionate. I help people understand how our past experiences helped us get to where we are today, whether we initially view these as positive or negative. Sometimes that place is a point of overwhelm or emotional detachment with intrusive thoughts. Sometimes that place is being unaware of our strength and resilience. I wholeheartedly believe that the power of healing and breaking unhealthy patterns lie within the therapeutic practice that empowers your authentic self. I meet your vulnerability with mine to create a safe space that supports deeper processing. I believe in working holistically to help you connect to your mind, body, and soul. I often bring in creativity, metaphor, humor, cognitive-behavioral approach and body-based interventions including mindfulness and imaginative play. Expanding on your skills helps you feel more empowered to make choices that improve all areas of your life. Contact me today for a free phone consultation to see how I can best help you reach your goals!

Healing is unique. The challenges and hurdles that one person might be facing can be different from another. Therefore, the journey of healing must be uniquely altered to fit and support each individual. Traditional evidence-based practices are utilized with the option of incorporating additional spiritual supports. With this formula, an improved quality of life is experienced. As a healer, my life's calling is to walk with you and shed light onto your own unique pathway towards the life that you desire. My hope is through sharing with you the tools I have picked up along my own journey, you will find your own toolbox filling with valuable aids. I specialize in incorporating spiritual aspects: Reiki, Past Life Therapy, Shamanism. If you feel that you may benefit from working with me, or would benefit from the approach I take towards healing, I encourage you to reach out. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
