Therapists in Two Bridges, New York, NY

Are your relationships troubled and disappointing? Do your fears and worries get in the way of your being your most creative, productive self? Do you sometimes find yourself in the same situations or repeating behaviors over and over, and you don't know how to find your way out? Habitual ways of reacting and behaving often began as the means of coping with the stresses of childhood, but are no longer useful or appropriate. I would like to help you become "unstuck", become less anxious and worried, feel more comfortable with yourself and happier with your relationships and work.

If you are experiencing drastic changes in mood, difficult adjustments to life changes, dealing with a recent loss or experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety, you don't have to go through this alone. Having the support and guidance of a trained professional can make a difference. I offer services to individuals adults and teenagers of diverse cultural backgrounds who are proactive towards their wellness and are seeking to improve their mood and life conditions.

What do you want right now? Are you searching for something that keeps slipping away? Are you feeling stuck, sad, anxious or scared? Psychotherapy can help you discover what you may not see about yourself and your behavior. In my practice I work with people who are seeking change, self-understanding and greater fulfillment in their lives. Psychotherapy can be instrumental to help you establish better relationships, process conflict and deal with questions of self-worth. With warmth and dedicated attention I strive to be respectful, open and curious. I create a space where people can explore their internal world and speak freely.

Daily and long-existent challenges can impact one’s sense of self and satisfaction. One’s relationships may also be harmed by frustration, anger, hopelessness, and anxiety. Human beings are multilayered organisms and I hold that each layer, in its unique form, contributes to the makeup of who you are or eventually whom you see yourself becoming as a whole person. Those layers are often blurred or forgotten due to the stressors that get in the way, but you continue to be the only person who truly knows what it means to live a life that feels authentic to you.

I believe the therapeutic relationship can be both healing and empowering. I use a person centered, strengths-based approach to help each person best reach their goals. Together we create a warm, safe, and genuine space that each person can use to gain self-awareness and feel supported. We work to eliminate distress and facilitate personal growth to help the client reach their individual goals. Throughout this process, I place great importance on understanding the impact of a person’s identity, culture, and environment to best support them. I also believe collaboration, creativity, and humor are essential to the process!

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.

Being human is hard. In addition to daily challenges, many of us weren’t shown how to feel and express our emotions, or how to communicate effectively with others. We may not have learned what healthy love looks and feels like, or how to care for and accept ourselves—because often, our caregivers hadn’t learned how to either. As a result, we often find ourselves experiencing painful emotions such as shame, anger, longing, worry, or hopelessness. Therapy is an opportunity to explore our experiences with curiosity and kindness, allowing us to gain insight into, make meaning of, and heal from the burdens we carry.

Now offering in person and video sessions. Sometimes life can present us with problems that are too difficult to manage on our own.
