About Me

Dr. Kathleen Calabrese, PhD, LMFT, BCN

Since 1969, my career has been shaped by my desire to participate in cutting edge opportunities to support people on their journey to growth and healing. In 1984, after completing my PhD and a post doctoral Family Systems training program at the University of Rochester Medical School, I opened my private practice, serving individuals and families in Western New York, NYC, and the Hudson Valley region. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in NY state, a certified Hypnotherapist, and a certified Neurofeedback practitioner.

Since 2005, I have trained with the world's leading developers of neurofeedback systems. These systems work directly with the brain, supporting it's ability to reinstate balance and function when various physical and emotional traumas have caused the brain to become dysregulated. I encourage you to visit www.bbht-institute.com to learn more about this life changing, non-invasive, non pharmaceutical approach to symptom regulation.

My approach to helping people live more satisfying lives is eclectic--we connect with the past, assess the present, and begin to plan for the future. Client-focused, co-creative, pragmatic, esoteric, and above all, empathic support is offered.
