“I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” 
~ Thomas Edison

"We are constantly recreating our lives…from the time we leave home, fall in love, marry, have our first child, lose a parent, jobs, marriage, or even our health. Perhaps we will even marry again."

We are always changing, yet sometimes it feels as if we are just spinning our wheels and not getting any further ahead. Doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results is the accepted definition of insanity, yet we all keep doing it! But what if you had different skills? Perhaps it isn’t the other person or the marriage that’s standing in the way to happiness. Perhaps you are trapped in the same set of beliefs from your past mistakes. If this is the case, the only way to succeed is to change those beliefs.

Counseling is the process by which we challenge our old beliefs and replace them with new ones—ones that will help you get where you want in life. At Artemis Counseling and Wellness in East Amherst, New York, we offer individual therapy services for those who want to make a change. Our “Integrative Health and Wellness Services” help individuals get through life’s challenges through an approach that includes mind, body, and spirit work, encouraging clients to become “empowered partners” who work to promote their own holistic well-being with coaching and self-care methods.

Who Can Benefit From Individual Therapy at Our Practice?

Our individual therapy services were designed to tackle a wide range of concerns. We help East Amherst residents who are struggling with:

Anxiety Disorders or Depression

Anxiety and depression can range from mildly irritating to debilitating. Both conditions are widely misunderstood and deserve to be treated with patience and understanding. Here at Artemis Counseling and Wellness, we take anxiety and depression seriously, and our team is happy to create a customized treatment plan for you to begin enjoying better days.

Grief and the Bereavement Period

Everyone knows that grief can last days, weeks, months, or even years. But did you know there is also complex grief? This is grief that just doesn't go away. Sadness that isn't processed or is doubled and tripled over time can change our behaviors, the way we think, and even how we look at life. We can help you with all of this.

Trauma and Complex Trauma

There are occurrences in our lives that deeply affect us. Some events can impact us much more than others and color our subsequent experiences and relationships. Working through trauma can allow for healing, understanding, and a healthier approach to relationships with others and ourselves.

Low Self-Esteem and Perceived Lack of Personal Growth

Feeling stuck in life? Can’t shake the feeling that something’s not right even though nothing is “wrong”? We are either surviving or growing, but we can’t do both. Let us help you move from survival to growth and beyond! Do it for yourself first!

Major Life Transitions

Divorce, remarriage, going back to school, a death in the family, new job—anything that happens during life that we might have some difficulty adjusting to.

Relationship Difficulties

Yep… everyone has them, but knowing how to handle them in a way that speaks our truth and our integrity is valuable. Toxic people come and go in our lives, and too many people are stuck in relationships thinking to themselves “if I could just change them.” We can help you learn how to change yourself so that your relationships will follow.

We Even Offer Hypnotherapy!

Hypnotherapy can work for many situations and is often an expedited approach to feeling better quicker. With proven techniques and a safe and secure environment, hypnotherapy at Artemis Counseling and Wellness allows clients to explore areas of their past or current belief systems in order to get unstuck and move forward confidently.

So if any of these sound like you…

• You keep worrying about the same problem over and over
• You don’t know who you could ever trust with knowing about your secret struggle
• You wish there was somebody who could tell you why you feel this way
• You’re interested in therapy, but you don’t want to give up total control
• Other areas of your life are being negatively impacted by your struggle
