Domestic Abuse Therapists in 10601

As a Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience in couples/marital therapy, I am skilled at addressing communication difficulties, loss of connection, infidelity & abuse. In individual therapy I specialize in treating relationship concerns, interpersonal struggles, family conflict, trauma, anxiety/depression, & self-esteem issues. My therapeutic style is flexible and intuitive, but I firmly believe that the strongest indicator of successful psychotherapy is the connection between counselor and patient, so my goal is to develop true, meaningful rapport with all of my clients (with a healthy dose of humor mixed in!).

As a psychotherapist, I see the strengths in others and always maintain hope and commitment to growth and development.

It's essential to find a therapist who is a good fit for you; my style is warm and involved, respectful and attentive. We will look for old patterns that are no longer working, and explore new possibilities within the safe confines of the therapy room.
