Codependency Therapists in 10024

Therapy provides the space to challenge self defeating beliefs and see oneself more clearly. I offer a safe and non-judgmental environment. My specialties and areas of interest include helping people overcome feeings of shame, depression and anxiety. I'll support you in your life transitions and when you're feeling afraid or unfulfilled. A lot of my work is around relationship challenges of all kinds. My goal is to help you understand and accept yourself. My goal is also to help you learn how to help yourself.

Integration and balance. These are the two guiding principles of my therapeutic approach. Sometimes people find themselves lost, astray, or simply curious about their current state in life. When we hit our lowest point, however, we may access the greatest change within ourselves. At some point in time, we may have lost our sense of self, while in other cases we may have struggled to form a coherent identity no matter how successful or secure we may appear. Nevertheless, we all have the potential to cultivate our resiliency and better understand who we are and who we wish to be.

I believe in the individual's unique experience. Psychological theories can help us understand ourselves up to a certain point, but ultimately we have to write our own story. I try to be as open minded as possible and not to presume anything about my clients. I believe in diversity of thought, feelings and experience and encourage my clients to embrace their uniqueness rather than pressure themselves to conform. I try to provide a nonjudgmental environment in which clients can explore their struggles, make changes or accept themselves for who they are.

During Covid-19 isolation, we are all experiencing exaggerations of our interpersonal difficulties. Phone or video session are available, to explore your personal responses to these other-worldly times. Interpersonal psychotherapy is a collaborative endeavor of discovering how you feel about yourself, your relationships, past, present and future. Curiosity, empathy and specialized skills can help you to figure out how to minimize/resolve the personal roadblocks that interfere with living the meaningful life you choose. During these stressful times, even a few consults might address and assuage personal adaptations.

I understand that starting treatment can be difficult. That's why my goal as a therapist is to create a supportive and empathetic environment so that patients can feel as comfortable as possible navigating life's stressors. I believe that therapy is a collaborative effort between patient and therapist where together we will explore patterns, repetitive behaviors/thoughts and how traumatic experiences have shaped your decisions, beliefs and relationships. The therapeutic relationship can assist you in living more mindfully and help you challenge negative thought patterns.

I'm unique because I integrate traditional approaches to therapy with energetic, spiritual, non-conventional healing methods. I believe you should feel lighter, calmer, more peaceful after each session together. My goal is to empower you to take full responsibility for how you feel today, allowing you to let go of anger, hurt and pain, and enabling you to be empowered and in control of your life. We'll practice the virtues of Compassion, Patience, Universal Love, Acceptance, Letting go of Judgement. We'll use everything from CBT and EMDR to Energy Reading and Tarrot!

Life is full of choices and sometimes it feels too big or just too small. I am a licensed Master of Social Work that provides clinical care that starts with listening to you with curiosity, collaboration, and a strength-based approach that centers on your priorities and journey. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, NLP, and EMDR to meet your individual needs. I provide therapy to individuals, couples/intimate partners, career transitions, life cycle changes, gender, and sexuality identity, living with disabilities, kink, trans, & poly affirming.

I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy for the treatment of depression and anxiety, with the goal of improving your interpersonal relationships and sense of self. I take an active, empathetic stance as a therapist. Together we will identify thought patterns and coping strategies that may no longer be working for you the way they once did, and learn new techniques to maximize your quality of life. As we learn more about how you act/react to challenges, we will investigate how these styles developed, why they developed, and why they may no longer be successful in helping you navigate the demands of your life.

Regardless of what you are dealing with, I believe in the potential to harness your inner resources to heal and grow. Connecting deeply with the right therapist can help you get to where you want to be. When you become more aware of what is going on consciously and unconsciously in your mind and body, you can be more effectual, less anxious and/or depressed, and have more energy and joy in your life. As I get to know you and we create a safe and meaningful relationship, we can make fundamental changes that will have a lasting effect.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

Are you Feeling Isolated? Stuck? Is it feeling harder to manage how you're feeling in your daily life, or are you just feeling like youre missing something? By exploring this struggle (your feelings in the moment, as well as your environment, past history, and relationships), we can sometimes look at it in a different way. Let's go on a journey together - like astronauts! By gaining perspective, we can feel present and comfortable in a way we haven't before.

Do you feel like you're shouting into the wind, but no one is listening? Is your mind racing a million miles an hour all day (and sometimes all night) long? Does your brain feel like it's stuck in an endless loop, thinking the same useless thoughts on repeat? It doesn't have to be this way! Get out of the echo chamber of your own head and find a safe place to clear your mind. Yes, reaching out for help can be scary, and procrastination so easy to justify - but taking that first step starts paying off right away. When you're clear about what you're thinking and feeling - and why - it's much easier to know what to do next.

Hi! I have 40 years of experience treating individuals, couples and business professionals who are now experiencing an increase in anxiety and depression, loneliness despair due to Covid and now the political uncertainty of our times. Let my compassionate, interactive and solution focused approach be of help dealing with these and other personal, family and financial issues affecting your relationships and personal life. Through a Cognitive Behavior Therapy approach, we work to identify these issues and develop strategies for change.

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist who works with individuals in therapy, intensive therapy, and psychoanalysis. I have a specialization in addressing diverse needs such as stage of life changes, work and relationship challenges, anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression. I earned my M.S.W. in Clinical Social Work from New York University. Currently, I am a senior psychoanalytic candidate at PANY, the Psychoanalytic Association of New York affiliated with NYU School of Medicine, where I also co-teach in the Fellowship Program.

People often ask me "How do you listen to people's problems all day?" I am inspired by the people I meet who often have difficult backgrounds and lives, yet are willing to work hard to grow and be happy, healthy, human beings. I am touched by their commitment and dedication to work on themselves instead of being angry, miserable people. What more important investment is there than investing time and energy in oneself?

During the global health crisis, I am conducting sessions over the phone. I am a licensed psychologist offering psychotherapy to individuals and couples. I treat adults and adolescents. My approach is primarily psychoanalytic/psychodynamic though I use cognitive and behavioral techniques when appropriate. I have specialized training in the treatment of eating disorders, substance abuse/addictions and LGBTQ+ issues. Additional areas of specialization or interest include anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, chronic medical conditions, disabilities, love and intimacy, parenting and identity confusion.

Feeling STUCK? People come to therapy when they feel burdened, suffering, or passing through a life transition that shocks or baffles them. People come for help to learn to accept themselves or make changes in their lives. But, old habits get in the way of attaining goals, connecting with people, and enjoying the richness of life. There is therapeutic magic in understanding and expressing the internal parts of ourselves that feel in conflict. Here, you learn ways to quiet the inner dialogue enough so that you can feel free to listen and take action to promote your own well-being.

Therapy is going to the gym for your emotional and relational well-being, so I give you a ton of credit for being here, exploring how to get in shape! Throughout my work, I have developed a style that is warm, direct, and actively challenges you to evolve. I have a tremendous working knowledge of evidence-based models, including CBT, DBT, MST, and ACT, as well as psychodynamic theory and the Gottman Method. My commitment to staying updated on current research and utilizing evidence-based models is a testament to my resolve to deliver therapy that actually works to help you meet your goals and experience relief.

I believe that it is a brave step to reach out for help and take action to change ones life. As a result, the selection of a therapist who is the best fit for you and your personality is an important choice. Over the years I have collaborated with patients to help them gain mastery over issues ranging from anxiety to addiction and many other issues as well. Younger and older patients of both genders and all sexual orientations have spent time in my office diligently working towards their goals.
