Therapists in Copiague, NY

"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." ~Winston Churchill

My goal as a therapist is to help my clients gain insight into themselves and their experience. Through the course of therapy, emotional healing can occur and self-empowerment can be found. I help people with anxiety, depression, and many other mental health difficulties. Sometimes just having someone to talk to about life can help. I stand here with outstretched arms.

In a general sense, my ideal client to work with is someone who is interested in growing as a person, and finding a life that works for them and their needs. In this changing world, we all need to embrace moments of honest reflection, and having this as a goal goes a long way towards approaching the life we want. When it comes to families and couples, my ideal client is one who realizes that "staying the course" isn't working anymore - and that winning the argument isn't worth the arguing.

As your therapist, I create a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere to bring comfort in expressing your thoughts and feelings. Gaining a deeper understanding of oneself in a positive environment promotes growth, change and emotional well being. My aim is to hold space for all the parts of your inner world, and to collaboratively reflect on the thoughts, behaviors and beliefs that no longer serve you. As a trauma informed clinician, our sessions will explore how past experiences have shaped the way you view life, including the habits and behaviors that you feel are holding you back. Together we can explore ways to heal.

I sincerely believe that people can change. Sometimes we just need help navigating that process. If you are experiencing distress, despair, or maybe just feel lost, I will help you find a solution. My approach involves helping people get unstuck from the destructive traps that we find ourselves in. I can help you tap into your internal strength, tenacity, and motivation. This will empower you to not only achieve your goals, but sustain them long-term. I do this through effective therapy techniques backed by scientific research, coupled with compassion, support, and encouragement. In our sessions, we can heal your suffering together.

How many of us have issues past or present which cause pain in our life? Therapy is an opportunity for us to be freed by processing our feelings and thoughts in a safe environment so that we can move on and grow. I offer over 20 years experience of working with those who have suffered with trauma, addiction, mental health and spiritual pain. Those who have come to me find the journey to inner peace which leads to emotional wellness is achievable as long as the person is willing to share and be honest with them self. Why stay in pain when there is a way to feel at peace?
