Welcome, Salutations, and Best Wishes! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been in the helping profession for over 15 years. The depth of my experience includes working in the following fields: Marriage and Family Therapy, Human Resource Development, School Administration, and the Judicial System. I have experience collaborating with individuals, couples, families, in addition to NGOs, faith-based organizations, and political representatives. It is my belief that I am not the expert in your life, rather I am just here as a conduit for change that you wish to see occur. Moreover, if I had to liken my role in your life to anything it would be the narrator in the GPS navigation system which provides clear and concise directions based on the destination you have input into the system. I believe that we will work as collaborators to achieve the goals that make sense for you. As a solution focused therapist, I am dedicated to brief treatment, adhere to minimal interventions, and do not delve into underlying pathology that may be present or family history in great detail. In our time together we will focus on the here and now in order to have you achieve goals in a concise and fulfilling manner. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Platinum Wishes, Dr. Kahilah Jones-Whyte

.Hi! My name is Laura White. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York. I have been active in the field since 1980, when I worked as a Research Assistant at Suffolk County Jail. It was then that I decided Social Work would become an integral part of my life. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, a Masters in Social Work, additional Masters-level coursework in Gerontology, and I am Certified for EMDR, Level One, 2001. I use a Person-Centered approach as well as Family Systems, Socratic Method, Motivational Interviewing, and CBT.

I work with patients who have Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, PTSD, Addictions, Eating Disorders, Social Anxiety, Relationship and Family Issues, Sexual, Physical and Emotional Abuse, LGBTQ issues, Pain and Medical/Disability Issues, ADHD, Employment, Home Health, Cancer and other Disabling Illnesses, and End of Life Issues. In my family, we have lost three parents to Cancer, so my experience is both personal as well as professional. I understand Caregiver Stress.

Hello, my name is Dr. Luis D. Ramirez, Ph.D., DSW, LCSW, and I am the founder of Rising Potential Counseling LCSW, PLLC. As a dedicated diagnostic and trauma doctor, I am based in the Central New York region and offer my services to clients throughout New York. My professional and personal journey has exposed me to various forms of adversity and hardship, shaping my deep understanding of the healing process. I recognize how crucial it is to have compassionate support while navigating the complexities of trauma, and I am committed to providing that support to my clients.

Hello, my name is Anthony Skerritt. I am a graduate of Mercy College with a master's in Mental Health Counseling. I am a licensed therapist. My therapeutic approach is rooted in a combination of evidence-based modalities that I find particularly effective in helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals. I have a strong preference for the following therapeutic techniques: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-focused Therapy, and First-person approach. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): I value the practical and solution-oriented nature of CBT. It provides clients with effective tools to identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. CBT can be especially helpful for individuals dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and various life struggles. Motivational Interviewing (MI): I appreciate the collaborative and client-centered nature of MI. It allows for a non-confrontational approach to help clients explore their ambivalence and find motivation for positive change. MI can be a valuable technique when working with individuals who may be struggling with motivation or are in the early stages of addressing their concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy: I am drawn to the solution-focused approach, as it emphasizes a client's strengths and resources, encouraging them to find solutions that work for their unique circumstances. This technique is particularly valuable when working with individuals facing life struggles or seeking to enhance their self-esteem. First-Person Approach: I believe in the power of creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can share their personal experiences and emotions openly. Using a first-person approach, I prioritize empathy and active listening, which I find crucial in building a strong therapeutic relationship. In terms of the population I am most passionate about working with, I have a strong affinity for young adults and adults who are grappling with a range of mental health challenges. These may include individuals with bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, as well as those facing various life struggles. I also have a particular interest in assisting individuals dealing with personality disorders. I am dedicated to tailoring my therapeutic approach to each client's unique needs and circumstances, and I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for their personal growth and healing

My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and better equipped to handle the pressures of everyday life. I specialize in working with men who feel overwhelmed by responsibility, work demands, family roles, or internal pressure to “hold everything together.” Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning on the outside but quietly dealing with stress, burnout, or emotional exhaustion. Together, we focus on building emotional resilience, improving communication, and developing tools that create real, lasting change. I also work with women and adults from all backgrounds who are seeking a structured, supportive space to better understand themselves, strengthen coping skills, and move forward with clarity and intention. As a Certified Financial Social Worker (CFSW), I integrate an understanding of the emotional and psychological impact of money stress, financial decision-making, and life transitions connected to career and stability. Our work may include addressing financial anxiety, avoidance patterns, or the emotional side of money — always focused on wellbeing rather than financial advising. My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy. I aim to create a space where you can speak openly without judgment while developing strategies you can apply in real life.
