About
The practice is led by Andrew Galbraith, LCSW, ABD, who has fourteen years of experience providing psychodynamically informed mental health treatment in Northern New York. They prioritize moving past arbitrary classifications used in clinical psychology to define what is deemed 'normal' versus 'abnormal', and instead focus on the internal conflicts deeply embedded in an individual’s personal history and identity. The practice serves individuals navigating challenges such as depressive or anxiety disorders, panic, eating disorders, psychosis, or personality disorders, as well as those categorized under neuro-divergence, substance use, attention or compulsive-related struggles, and trauma. They are located at 22 Depot Street, Potsdam, New York 13676, and can be reached at (917)-891-4605.
