Life can be difficult. It can throw us for a loop. We can suddenly find ourselves feeling alone, bewildered. Life's transitions and changes can easily overwhelm us and it feels as though it is more than we can handle. But I can help you. I am here to encourage you, to support you. With an objective, non-judgmental ear and an open mind, I can give you another perspective. Sometimes, all it takes is another perspective to make life's challenges feel less intimidating.

Life can be overwhelming on any given day, but when mental health concerns are added to the mix, it can seem impossible to overcome even small hiccups. This is normal, but it is not something that you should have to deal with alone. My goal as a therapist is to address whatever problems you are experiencing at any given moment. I provide structured sessions using evidence-based approaches to help you or your family tackle concerns related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral issues, trauma, grief, relationship stressors, infertility and adoption issues, sport performance, and life adjustments.

I have extensive experience in crisis counseling for the dying and the bereft. I work with bereaved children and adults, counseling families suffering from loss or trauma, long-term and short-term illness, and other major life changes and challenges including divorce, infertility, job loss, and adoption. My experience is in both private practice and with Hospice Care Network. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York, New Jersey and Florida. I work with individuals, family units, and groups, to help clients achieve their goals and feel at peace. I offer evening hours. Call to schedule an appointment.

I believe that we seek treatment when we feel dissatisfied in our relationships, careers, or with ourselves. We might not be aware that our emotional conflicts block us from achieving what we want. Change and flourishing of creativity can occur when the analyst creates an accepting and safe environment for expression and exploration of all dimensions of our experiences. I am an experienced analyst with over twenty years of practice working with children, adolescents, adults and couples in Manhattan and Great Neck.

Therapy is a personal experience and an opportunity to get to know yourself better. Discover strategies to improve your life in a safe, private, comfortable atmosphere. We are all unique individuals; there is no one way to do therapy. I have many years of experience working with children, adolescents and adults that allow me to utilize clinical experience to find the path that helps an individual, couple or family obtain the help they are looking for.

Create positive & healthy changes in your life. You have taken a courageous step toward healing. Whether you have relationship issues, family conflicts, fears, anxiety, panic, trauma, depression, bottled up frustration and insecurities, you will gain concrete skills to manage them IMMEDIATELY. If you feel marginalized because of sexual orientation, being an immigrant, having disabilities or feel like an outsider, you will be heard, empowered and taught to be self protective. I work with the LGBTQ community. Those dealing with chronic pain, infertility and adoption, integrating a mind-body approach. I am fluent in Hebrew and Arabic.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in NYC with well over a decade of experience empowering and supporting women through life transitions, losses, and breaking distressing energy draining cycles. Are you struggling in relationships, harshly self-critical, unsure of next steps in building the life you want, a new or seasoned parent and feeling triggered and overwhelmed, or experiencing a recent change or loss? Our work together will help you better attune to yourself and build a life that feels centered, authentic, full and joyful.

Sometimes life throws curves that seem to be insurmountable. Talking with a therapist can help you pay attention to and resolve the conflict that has gotten in the way of you having a more fulfilling life. Problems at work or school, inability to get a good night's rest, overeating are among the issues that you can't see as having you stuck. Depression or anxiety are real issues that must be worked through to get you back on track. Separation and loss are areas that can cause trauma. Trauma can be leaving home to go to college, the loss of a relationship, grief of loosing someone to death. Talking can get you through.

I've always been a "people person" but started work in the field of technology. When laid off after 20 years, I saw it as a blessing in disguise, went back to school, and received my Masters of Social Work. I bring a sense of enthusiasm and energy which combined with some of the wisdom I've gained in life help me provide a high quality service to a diverse range of clients. Sessions are specific to each client's needs and can include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, relaxation techniques and other approaches.

I have been working remotely since the pandemic. I have not observed a significant difference in the efficacy of treatment delivered in this format and the advantages are many. I am most effective in helping those struggling with depression, anxiety, an inability to prosper, find happiness or enjoy satisfying relationships with others. I work well with men and women of all ages and adolescents. For those who wish to be understood and understand themselves I am a good choice. It is the very act of making oneself known to others that is therapeutic. In so doing we become known to ourselves as well.

I work with people who struggle with anxiety and/or depression; families; workplace issues; co-dependency; compulsive sexual behavior and love or relationship addiction; Seasonal Affective Disorder. I also work with adolescents and people who are struggling with grief and loss. As of April 1, 2023, I will be offering Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).

I am a clinical therapist and professor who practices in New York and Massachusetts. Many times, challenges, pain, loss, and even suffering hold just as much a place in our lives as happiness, joy, peace and triumph. Utilizing best-practices and empirical knowledge, my hope is for our journey to be an intricate process of joining and receiving; discovering and growing; learning and practicing. My approach is integrative, taking into consideration all the systems within you, including race, culture and environment. I aim to hold a warm and supportive space wherein empowerment, balance and growth can be achieved.

Since 1978 I have provided and supervised psychotherapy to approximately ten thousand individuals of all ages with social anxiety. The result of this process has been the development of The Berent Treatment Methodology, which has adapted to the specific needs of social anxiety sufferers, rather than fitting the problem of social anxiety into the narrow confines of existing modalities. Treatment integrates physiological, behavioral, cognitive, and emotional dynamics. The Berent Treatment Methodology is effective for: public speaking anxiety disorder, fear of being noticeably nervous as in erythrophobia and hyper-hidrosis, performance anxiety, selective mutism, pervasive social avoidance, and dependent personality.

I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from Adelphi University. I am a very compassionate and empathetic person by nature and have always had a passion to help others. I have worked with children and families of all ages, specifically helping them navigate challenges that surfaced from being in the foster care system. I believe that every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and permanent family and home.

In many cultures and communities, mental health is a taboo topic. Some may not talk about it at all. Do you know what healthy relationships look like? Do you have lingering childhood traumas? Do you need a sounding board to help you navigate through challenging moments? Therapy can be all of those things and more.
