Therapists in 10025

I see adults experiencing anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. I listen deeply. I help adults become more curious about their thoughts and feelings and question long-held assumptions that no longer apply. I help them tap into their bodies' wisdom. We work on removing roadblocks to free up energy in the essential areas of love, work and play. I help children experiencing difficulty at home, in school, and with peers. Through play and talk, I help them resume the important tasks of childhood. I have a specialty niche in infants and young children. Attachment issues, trauma, divorce and loss are additional areas of expertise.

My approach is interactive, empathic, and responsive to each client's needs and difficulties. I see therapy at its best as an authentic encounter between two people, one of whom is a skilled listener who can help the other understand conflicts, alleviate pain, find meaning in his/her unique story, and discover solutions to current problems. I have extensive experience working with individuals and couples, and with late adolescents and young adults.

My primary modalities are EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I've worked with trauma and injustice for many years, and I recognize the courage it takes to trust another person with the most vulnerable parts of yourself. In my office, I strive to provide a therapeutic space where all parts feel welcome, where you can experience something radically different and practice new and courageous ways of relating to yourself and to others. I've successfully helped teenagers, adults and couples experience healing from trauma and unresolved events, peace from anxiety and acceptance in times of grief.

Everyone deserves peace of mind and quality of life. I am a dedicated, warm and interactive therapist who can walk you through challenging times and help you find the skills you need to handle both today and your future. I have relevant clinical experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, loss, relationship issues, general coping skills and more.

Are you struggling with anxiety, frequent sadness, or trauma symptoms? Would you like support around managing relationship challenges, loneliness, or uncertainty about your future? Are you unsure how to handle your child’s recent mood or behavior changes? If so, working with a therapist can help you find relief. Together we can explore new ways to cope with painful emotions, set your child up for success, manage life transitions, accomplish value-based goals, foster meaningful relationships and gain insight into what may be contributing to your long-standing concerns.

Beginning therapy can feel like a big step and I am here to work collaboratively with you in a safe, supportive, and liberated space. I would like to help you feel less alone with difficult feelings and experience a greater sense of self-agency and fulfillment in your life. I have over 10 years of experience and extensive post-graduate training specializing in depression, anxiety, complex trauma, issues related to identity, and I offer particular attunement to individuals who identify as LGBTQAI+.

I understand the choice to be vulnerable with a stranger is not easy and I appreciate that it takes time to build trust. I am warm and nonjudgmental. I want you to feel safe and understood. I practice individual and group therapy with clients ranging in age from adolescence to geriatrics. I have an integrative approach, drawing from different therapeutic styles so that I can meet your unique needs and goals. Those styles include psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based therapy grounded in dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

It takes courage and strength to reach out for therapy. Everyone’s journey to wellness is unique. I am here to support you in navigating life’s challenges. I specialize in empowering young and Mid-life adults to increase self-esteem and motivation to create positive change. I help clients learn and utilize coping strategies to manage anxiety, depression, and stress related to life transitions, past traumas, and relationship struggles.

Soul loss is what we go through when our early wounds and traumas restrict our energy and impede our ability to live freely and joyfully. I can help you retrieve your lost energy and rewire old patterns, so you can more fully embody who you were meant to be. Pain is often an invitation to learn more about our feelings so we can evolve and expand. I use a mind-body approach (somatic experiencing/ gestalt) with a relational lens (psychodynamic/ attachment/ Jungian) and energy healing. If you feel stuck after years of talk therapy, I can help. I see children, adolescents, adults, couples & families online only at the moment.

When you are in a struggle with yourself, it may affect everything else. Talking can help. Voicing your truth is healing. I offer a comfortable, supportive environment where it is safe to be yourself. Together we will identify and explore that which has been troubling you. This will help you release haunting feelings, make peace with your history, and gain clarity about your current situations. From this new vantage point, you will have a better sense of what you truly want. And that is where change begins.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I want to help you achieve your goals in obtaining an improved quality of life by working together to identify coping strategies that best suit you. I enjoy teaching you skills including mindfulness training, interpersonal effectiveness skills, and distress tolerance skills so that you can implement them to decrease the intensity, severity, and frequency of your psychiatric symptoms.

It's so difficult but so empowering to ask for help. Together we will identify issues and create solutions. I work with individuals battling depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I can help you understand and recognize behaviors that jeopardize your happiness and growth.

Therapy is about both addressing specific issues which may be getting in our way as well as cultivating a healthy curiosity about ourselves, our patterns, and our experiences. Life is wrought with transitions which can catch us off-guard, and it is common to feel unsure as to whether we are on the right path. Thankfully, these can be successfully navigated collaboratively and discreetly through a relationship with a trusted professional. Gaining an understanding of ourselves through identifying our blind spots is the first step in establishing a life that is both purposeful and fulfilling.

I help people overcome the obstacles in their lives that block them from the fulfillment, satisfaction, and overall contentment they seek. I meet with people in a safe and confidential setting where they can feel comfortable to discuss the concerns that trouble them.

I believe that people thrive when they are authentically connected to themselves and each other. When these connections are disrupted by fear, trauma, depression, loss, or some life transition, it can be helpful to have a place to rediscover and repair those connections. Having a safe environment where an empathic presence and a constructive perspective are provided can help to restore stability, reinforce your strengths, and allow you to grow and build toward living your fullest life possible. My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, practical, and goal oriented.

IF YOU FIND YOURSELF… worried, stressed or depressed, you are not alone. One in four of us feel that way in a given year. There are many reasons. You might be experiencing difficulty at work or perhaps you and your partner disagree about how to deal with your children, your money or your in-laws. It is possible that self-esteem issues interfere with your achievements and relationships. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO... feel empowered in your therapy I am happy to work with you. I would like to help you move forward and live a richer fuller life. Together we can learn what holds you back and what keeps you stuck in sadness or anger.
