Do you feel as though intense emotions or behaviors control your life? That other therapy hasn't been helpful or created the change you needed? People who struggle with anxiety and panic, suicidal thoughts, self-harm behavior, depression, PTSD, OCD, eating disorders, and symptoms of borderline personality disorder all greatly benefit from DBT. If you have been struggling to understand with and cope with your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, have been experiencing interpersonal conflict within your relationships or family, or have been facing barriers to meet your goals despite your best efforts, we're here to help.

WE ARE ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. We have a lot of experience in working with children, adolescents and adults who struggle with depression and anxiety related to trauma. Our staff have specialized training in trauma work and the resulting issues that develop from experiential trauma including PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder), Dissociation, Self Injury and Suicidal Ideation.

Begin your journey toward change, where you will have the opportunity to be heard, supported and encouraged to discover your own personal strength to achieve a sense of normalcy in your life. Come to an environment where you can feel free to express feelings of fear, insecurity, loneliness, anger, pain, sadness, etc. The time for change has come.....

I am an experienced, thoughtful and caring therapist that will help you overcome or work on any issues, problems or concerns that you are dealing with. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field and I have worked with singles, couples, families, seniors, and adolescents. I am empathic and an active listener. I treat all of my clients with unconditional positive regard and respect. I do not believe in a one size fits all therapy approach. Every client is different and has different needs and that is my focus. I work with the entire person to help them improve their mental health and over all well-being.

Everyone has a story to tell and sometimes the bravest thing a person can do is share their story. When your story is holding you back from becoming the greatest version of yourself then it’s time to work through any negative messages you may have been telling yourself. I believe we all have the tools we need to accomplish our goals. If it’s hysterical, it’s historical. I help you identify present day triggers and figure out where it stems from so you can free yourself from what has been holding you back. I specialize in EMDR, CBT, and I am currently getting my CSAT certification. I am licensed in both New York and Connecticut.

Welcome! For over 15 years I have supported adults with borderline personality disorder, complex post-traumatic stress disorder, self harm, suicidality, emotional dysregulation, addiction and eating disorders. I am passionate about helping clients like you experience both symptom relief and true healing through therapy tailored to your unique needs. Using dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Ketamine Assisted Therapy (KAP), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic therapy, we work together to develop strategies to build your "life worth living" and find true healing from the misery caused by complex trauma.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed with feelings of anxiety or depression and you are searching for a safe space to process these emotions, I am here to help! I focus on providing a non-judgmental space and supportive environment to help clients find peace. My therapeutic process with clients is collaborative, encouraging, yet challenging at the same time. I use treatment approaches such as: person-centered, strengths-based therapy, motivational interviewing and meeting clients where they are at. I am passionate about helping clients get through the difficult transitions life can bring.

My goal is to help you achieve a sense of control over your life, your choices, and your relationships. Oftentimes people come to therapy when they feel dissatisfied with some or all areas of their lives and they can't seem to figure out why or what to do about it. Through empathic listening, warmth, humor, and genuine engagement, I help people gain insight into their unique ways of thinking and operating and then work to build up strong, self-affirming thoughts and compassionate feelings to combat negative patterns. Therapy is hard work, but so worth the investment!

I am a psychodynamically-oriented psychologist dedicated to helping clients lead more self-directed lives. With warmth and empathy as my guiding principles, I work to create a safe and nurturing environment in which clients can explore the root causes of stress, anxiety, and emotional pain in their lives so they can move forward and thrive. I work with adolescents, adults, and new parents struggling with anxiety and stress, academic and work issues, emotional conflicts, adjustment to major life transitions.

I believe strongly in therapy's capacity to help us experience a wider range of feelings and situations more flexibly, and to help us experience a greater sense of vitality. You may have specific issues that are troubling you with relationships, work, or your identity, for example. You may have a potentially harder-to-name sense of dissatisfaction or emptiness. Any of these are good reasons to seek therapy.

It is a common human experience to feel that you fall short of your full potential or that other people seem to find enjoyment more often than you do. Perhaps you find yourself spending precious moments of your life feeling anxious or depressed, overshadowing your connections with those around you leaving you feeling lonely and lost. You would like to have a new start in your romantic and professional life, but you don’t know how. I am part of the team at Rose Hill Psychological Services and I devote myself to helping you help yourself to discover the true investment in your personal life, work and relationships, and more.

Are you unhappy with your current situation, stuck in a career, a relationship, going through major changes in life, suffering from trauma or PTSD? I am here for you on the remarkable journey of recovery toward serenity, free from being ruled by negativity. I believe each individual is unique and has the capacity to use his/her inner resource to maximize strengths. I have worked with individuals of all ages from different backgrounds coping with depression, anxiety/phobia, identity issues, marital /relationship conflicts, addictions (including internet/video game addictions), career decisions, parenting, school or job related stress, cross-cultural and generational issues, etc.

I help adults struggling with self-love. Using strategic interventions, our work together will help you develop practical skills, health and wellness routines and address your mental and emotional needs on a fundamental level. Through our work, you will become intentional about your life, set specific goals, and feel empowered. I also help couples who have challenges in areas of communication, lack of trust, and a loss of respect. I offer a unique premarital assessment which reduces divorce by 30%. I also offer Christian and Spiritual Faith Based therapy for those interested.

I believe psychotherapy is a life-changing process that can expand one's capacity for self-reflection and self-awareness, thereby paving the way for more meaningful relationships and a more fulfilling life. I endeavor to help my patients find the tools they need to feel the most productive and the most alive. My approach is psychodynamically-oriented; however, my years of practicing have taught me that there is no one-size-fits-all model. I believe each person has different needs, and I bring both my experience and collaborative skills to each treatment. I have been described as empathic, relatable, and warm.

Life is difficult, and what makes it difficult usually involves other people. You can't change them, and changing yourself... who wants to stop being themselves to please other people? What you CAN change is how you RELATE to other people: how you act, how you think, what you're willing to put up with. A lot of pain is caused by our own limited view of ourselves; we contain much more than we know. I do talk therapy and art therapy, either or both -- that's up to you. You know more about you. I'll follow your lead.

I often treat adolescents and adults suffering from anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as couples and families grappling with interpersonal struggles. Extensive training and experience in trauma-focused therapy allows me to help clients process and heal from painful experiences, and has shown me how profoundly life experience can shape one's view of themselves and their world. For those suffering from anxiety, depression, or relationship concerns, I find that I work best with those who prefer an engaging, solution-focused approach.

Welcome to my practice. If we worked together, you could bring me your doubts, pains and fears. We could look into your problem behaviors and beliefs to see more clearly what drives them and what other choices you might have. We would get to know your strengths and use them. We would investigate how painful past experiences including trauma might still be affecting your reactions and choices, and try to reduce their impact. As a therapist, I am an active listener, often asking clarifying questions and inviting reflection. This exchange builds mindfulness, which I believe is essential to health.

I start with listening and seek to cultivate a perspective that enlivens, enlightens and unburdens. I use an integrative psychoanalytic approach founded in curiosity and collaboration to address problems relating to trauma, depression, anxiety or self-esteem that can undermine ones ability to thrive interpersonally, creatively, sexually or professionally. Whether it's a life-change, a search for meaning, creative blocks, frustration with the quality of relationships or something else, I will meet you there. Through listening and talking, we will explore internal experience and how it impacts relating to oneself and others.
