Debra DeLorenzo, Positive Psychology Life Coach An Alum of Cornell University and a life-long learner and facilitator, I continued to pursue training in education, somatic movement and Positive Psychology, combining all three into a Positive Psychology Life Coaching practice.  I live in the Finger Lakes with my husband and dog and enjoy my grown daughters and helping my clients to achieve their goals and dreams.
Emily Walsh, Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) Celebrating 6 years in Private Practice at The Art Therapy Studio, Emily facilitates individual therapy, groups and professional training on Mindfulness and Art Therapy.  She welcomes connecting with those who are looking to express their authentic selves or address anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, self-compassion or dissatisfaction in relationships.
Jessica Truman, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) As an alumni from Le Moyne College and St. John's University, I look forward to helping teens, students & adults. It is so important to advocate and talk about mental health awareness, and for those to become open with discussing one's needs and emotions. I am trained to work with individuals who may be having difficulty coping with feelings of anxiety, depression, mood/personality disorders, stress, addiction, anger management, troubled relationships, or interpersonal challenges. My experience working with a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, cognitive behavioral and mindfulness based orientation, promotes self-awareness and adaptive coping skills. This helps my clients achieve a greater insight into working through challenges.
