Jennifer Downie

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away

8265 Sheridan Drive, Buffalo, NY

I came to therapy from teaching, and that background shapes how I show up: I'm used to adapting to who's in front of me, reading what's unsaid, and finding an approach that actually fits the person — not just the presenting concern.

I work with adolescents and adults on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, maternal mental health, grief, and family stress. EMDR is a core part of my practice — particularly for clients whose past experiences still affect how they feel and function today, even when they'd rather they didn't.

I keep a small, intentional caseload. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit, I offer a free phone consultation before we commit to anything.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away

501 John James Audubon Parkway, Amherst, NY

Hi, I’m Lindsey, a psychotherapist who works with adult (18+) individuals navigating a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges. I believe the most effective therapy is a collaborative process where we work together as a team to identify what’s not working and build practical, meaningful solutions that fit your life. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and actively involved in your own healing.

We begin by building a strong therapeutic alliance—creating a space that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and grounded in trust. From there, we explore your specific needs, patterns, and goals in a way that feels respectful of your pace and readiness.

It takes a tremendous amount of courage to reach out to a therapist for help with life's difficult challenges, and to find hope in the midst of struggle. It is my joy as a therapist, and as a human being, to help individuals find that hope within themselves. I have many years of experience helping individuals of all ages with anxiety, depression, relationship and communication issues, anger management, PTSD, childhood trauma, ADHD, substance use and grief and loss. I especially enjoy working with young people trying to navigate these challenges. I also work with couples and older adults. Grief and loss is an area of expertise.
