Therapists in 10025

Every human is struggling with something—insecurities, anxieties, doubts, or regrets. I work in an existentialist and humanist tradition that starts with where you are in your life and your history, that explores your current concerns and your hopes for the future. I place great value on your development of self-awareness, curiosity, authenticity and the search for meaning in life. Through our work together, we will construct a vision of yourself as stronger and more resilient.

Are you feeling anxious about the future or stuck in the past? Do you put on a 'calm and collected' front so that others don't see you struggle? Do worries or self-doubt keep you up at night? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you've come to the right place. Often what keeps us stuck in distress are self-limiting beliefs or old patterns of emotions. Sometimes we internalize someone else's rules about how we should feel and act. But amazing things can happen when we take a chance to try something new. I look forward to supporting you as you write a new chapter in your story.

I am a passionately engaged psychoanalytic psychotherapist, training analyst, Imago couples therapist, award winning writer, international conference speaker, animal and nature lover, biker, hiker, swimmer. I am also curious, non-judgmental, interactive and open-hearted. Psychotherapy can be a transformational, even life-saving experience.

I believe that our work together will expand the possibililties for growth, healing and a richer life.

BILINGUAL PSYCHOTHERAPIST.I enjoy my work as a Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst. My very extensive training at an analytic Institute has prepared me to listen first and then assess the patient's needs. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is an important guide to help face the challenges of love and work in their lives. Symptoms of depression, anxiety phobias and Rage are often indication that something needs to change. I try to help the patient utilize psychotherapy for their personality issues that make it hard to function effectively in the world or be content , feel more whole, and more productive.

Our lives unfold their beauty, Like the petals of a flower, In challenges from circumstances, We find our finest hour. (C. Alexander Simkins). Generally it is in such circumstances that we find our way to a psychotherapist or a need for medication, not when life is smooth and comfortable. Many years of professional practice blended with my own life experiences have given me empathy and understanding that assist me in my relationships with my clients and in identifying with them what is needed to enhance healing and recovery. I am a nurse practitioner in psychiatry and mental health with a focus on depression, anxiety, life transitions, end of life issues, substance use and medication management. I see both individuals and couples.

People often seek therapy when feeling stuck: painfully alienated from what they desire, torn between conflicting impulses, and stuck with a version of themselves they find confusing and dissatisfying. Through careful listening and exploration, our work will help to illuminate how old wounds and ways of surviving have restricted your ability to feel, work, love, and even play freely. Moments of vulnerability in therapy can be opportunities to shut down, or they can be opportunities for introspection and transformation – I pay close attention to each patient’s needs, wishes, and fears to help steer you towards the latter outcome.

I believe it is important to establish a safe and trusting environment and relationship with you. My approach is non-judgmental, collaborative and welcoming of all emotions, feelings, and experiences. I use a humanistic approach to my work and strive to help individuals and couples reach their highest state of self-awareness to maximize their potential. My therapeutic approach and orientation is specific and tailored to your needs. Additionally, I believe strongly in the power of client-centered therapy and trusting your system to guide the work.

Are you anxious, depressed, lonely, confused? Come just as you are! I will be a source of honest support, deep listening, understanding, change processes and, at times, direct advice.

I'm a clinical psychologist with thirty years experience, working with people to create less painful, more satisfying, balanced and interesting lives. We will work on your life together.

I am a training analyst and supervisor at NPAP and Blanton-Peale Institute, and a professor at CUNY. I use a psychodynamic approach allied with an interpersonal or relational orientation. I interact with clients as they come to grips with the hurtful circumstances of the past- or recent events- that have undermined self-esteem or their sense of self and resulted in poor personal choices and decision making in the present. I understand the persistence of unproductive or destructive modes of behavior, or the difficulty of seeing oneself in a new, hopeful light and acting in accord with such insight.

As a clinical psychologist, I work collaboratively with clients who are seeking to become “unstuck,” to meet new challenges, and to navigate relationships and emotions. I strive to develop a nuanced understanding and appreciation of my clients' values, needs, and struggles. Together, we clarify obstacles, evaluate coping strategies, identify personal goals, and develop the skills necessary for a path forward. My approach is non-judgmental, warm, and active.

I am a licensed therapist passionate about working with individuals dealing with addiction (or a family member’s addiction), anxiety, depression, and codependency. Do you struggle to feel content or whole without using something external (substances, relationships, food)? Do you have difficulties setting boundaries with others or practicing self-compassion? It can feel overwhelming to be vulnerable with another person in therapy and to let yourself truly be seen, but there can be freedom and connection from doing so. I create a non-judgmental space for you to strengthen your inner resources through awareness and self-acceptance.

Why, How does therapy work? NY Times: "For one thing, given that our psyches take shape through one-on-one exchanges, we're likely set up to interact with a single person more openly and deeply than with any group. The pair is also inherently fluid and flexible. Two people can make their own society. When even one more person is added, roles and power positions harden. This may be good for stability but problematic for creativity. Three legs make a table stand in place. Two legs are made for moving.'

I have been in the field for over 30 years. I am not your traditional therapist. I go above and beyond to assist your journey and to empower and and enhance your life and goals. We work to release patterns which no longer serve you and to move forward with wonder and awe rather than fear and trepidation.

I am patient, open-minded, empathic and laid back. I work best with people who are interested in gaining insight into themselves and their emotions. I focus on the relationship that develops between us in order to understand how you interact with others in your life. Through this approach, we can examine barriers impacting your relationships and overall life satisfaction and pinpoint areas for growth and exploration. A successful treatment is one in which you gain knowledge and tools to ultimately become your own therapist.

I center culture and the intersectionality of your identities in my work as a therapist. I was trained psychodynamically, which means that I pay close attention to unconscious processes guiding your behavior. I offer insight into these dynamics to help you move forward with your life goals. My clinical interventions are also grounded in efforts to challenge the ways in which you may be affected by systems of oppression.

My goal as a therapist is to create an honest, safe and non-judgemental space.
