Therapists in 10024

My practice has a dual specialty neuropsychology and psychotherapy. I see children, adolescents, and adults. In Neuropsychology, I see individuals who have experienced a learning difficulty or frustration in an academic environment. I specifically look to identify patterns of learning and adapting novel information to help individuals achieve the most out of their academic career. On the psychotherapy side, I use both psychodynamic and interpersonal modalities incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy to identify negative patterns of coping. Utilizing gentle challenges to current patterns, positive coping can be effected.

Looking for a therapist for you, your child, or your family can be challenging. It can be hard to find someone who is the right fit. I am a licensed clinical social worker working with children of all ages, families, and adults. I have experience working with those who have experienced traumatic events, grief and loss, anxiety, depressive symptoms separations/divorces, behavioral concerns, family conflicts and life transitions.

Good therapy can produce long lasting life changes. Although shifts in behavior and emotions can take time, even in the short term there can be immediate relief. I see the relationship between the patient and therapist as central to a positive outcome. Although we are all infinitely diverse and complex, collectively we seek to be understood. I listen with curiosity and empathy to understand each individual's unique experience. In treatment I create an atmosphere of trust where together we can identify your strengths, find practical solutions to problems and unfold underlying vulnerabilities that are obstacles to your experience of a rich and fulfilling life.

Encountering struggles in our lives is a universal part of our humanity. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed and alone, whether going through a painful breakup, dealing with grief from a tragic loss, coping with the pressures of career or chronic illness, or dealing with family and relationship situations. Sometimes we just need someone to talk to, who is impartial, can listen, and who can help us somehow make sense of it all. Therapy can act as a bridge of compassion and hope, to get us through to the other side to a greater understanding of our authentic selves and to help us reach the potential to live our best lives.

I am a warm, supportive therapist providing person-centered, goal-focused sessions. Together we create a safe, collaborative space to explore authentic feelings, emphasize strengths, and identify effective strategies to enhance your well-being. There's no one size fits all manual for how to navigate life. We build a toolbox to equip you for yours whether there be a recent event, life transition or persistent stressor.

Deciding to begin therapy can be a difficult decision requiring courage and strength. I commend you on taking the first step toward feeling better, self-enlightenment, more satisfying relationships (with ourselves, other adults, or children) and personal growth. Whether you are feeling stuck in life or unsure of the next step, facing conflict or unhappiness within a relationship, experiencing feelings of depression, loneliness, or anxiety, struggling to cope with a past or recent trauma or a painful personal history, therapy can be a rewarding and transformative experience that can help you heal and reclaim control of your life.

I work with adults, couples, and families who are struggling with issues of intimacy, the push-pull of relationships, parenting, trauma, anxiety and depression. In a supportive, engaged, and interactive working relationship, I will help you identify your strengths and help you understand how you might set up roadblocks to your success. The goal of our work would be to work through your emotional struggles and to learn new ways of coping.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I seek to build strong relationships with my clients that involve warmth, trust, and collaboration, which serve as the foundation for meaningful growth and change. I believe in joining with every client, respectfully and without judgment, to improve the nature of their relationships, better understand their emotional world, and cope with stress.

I treat a wide spectrum of conditions including mood and anxiety disorders (e.g., bipolar and depressive disorders, panic and phobias), ADHD, marital issues and PTSD. My niche is in personality disorders (e.g., borderline and narcissistic personality disorder). I have extensive experience treating trauma sequelas, dissociative disorders and helping individuals overcome grief. My practice also includes treatment of eating disorders in adults (e.g., bulimia) and parasuicidal behaviour. Although my practice is mainly guided by empirical modalities, I tend to approach each client in an eclectic manner to customize treatment as needed.

Whether working with you individually or within a family system, my goal is to foster a warm and nonjudgemental space for you to feel heard and free to explore difficult feelings. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families on a variety of issues including anxiety, peer and family conflict, behavioral challenges, mood disorders, and LGBTQ+ related issues. Regardless of what has brought you into treatment, I work closely with you to reduce shame and deepen your understanding of your relationships, behaviors, thoughts and feelings. Such insight is the foundation for change and growth.

Are you moody and unhappy when you wish you weren't? Do you sometimes feel stress and anxiety about not being more connected to others? Are you having relationship problems? Or, are you lonely? Do you feel that it is hard to be authentic and still succeed? Do you have a conflict between a background to which you feel attached and the person you want to become? Is it hard to integrate your diverse self into today's social communities? My multidisciplinary expertise can help you deeply understand yourself while getting your growth and changes up and running.

Serving adolescents/teens, adults and couples in CA and NY, in person sessions available in NYC. I work from an integrative framework which I adapt based on each individuals specific challenges, goals, personality and past efforts towards healing and growth. My work is guided by a belief that people have an innate drive towards happiness and an intuitive, unconscious sense of how to bring this to fruition. This inner wisdom can often be stifled and suppressed by various aspects of ones experience, upbringing and psycho-neurological makeup.

Life, amidst its transcendent beauty, can at times be challenging, leaving us feeling lost and searching for meaning. Sometimes these feelings are triggered by a specific event, such as the death of a loved one, a major life transition, a breakup or a traumatic experience. Other times, we just can’t seem to pinpoint the catalyst for these emotions. Therapy can be one tool to help during these times. I believe that the role of the therapist is to provide a secure relationship that can be utilized for personal growth, self-reflection and long-lasting change.
