Attachment-based Therapists in Bedford Hills, NY

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of direct clinical experience. I specialize in working with culturally diverse young adults (aprx age 18-35) who are having difficulty regulating themselves and experiencing some level of emotional and/or behavioral distress, which sometimes leads to significant problems in school, at work, and/or in relationships with oneself and others. Often, this distress can be eased with increased self-awareness that supports your ability to regulate your internal experience so your emotions feel manageable, your thoughts are more comforting, and you have more control over your behavior.

With the continuing rise in anxiety and depression, it is becoming increasingly more important to go inward and pinpoint what is weighing on you. In therapy, we will uncover the source of your pain, resolve problems with self-acceptance, and correct negative re-occurring patterns. We will eliminate the barriers that have been preventing you from living up to your fullest potential and achieving deep fulfillment in life. With hard work and my expertise, success is possible regardless of past circumstances. My interventions are grounded in Trauma and Attachment theory and the body-mind connection.

Feeling overwhelmed by obstacles in your life? Experiencing challenges in your relationships with others? Taking the first step to enter therapy can be frightening. Trying to find the right therapist can be stressful. Let me help you achieve your optimum mental and emotional health by providing evidence-based treatments in a compassionate and collaborative environment. I have experience working with couples, families, and individuals cope and manage all types of relationship dynamics and life stressors. I will listen and ask questions to better understand and explore the barriers to help us develop strategies to improve your life.

I offer a wide range of treatment modalities, including mind-body therapies as well as traditional psychotherapy. These include CBT, Somatic Experiencing (SE), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and EMDR. My style is active, engaging and focused on achieving client goals within a time limited framework. Having 25 years experience as a therapist, combined with specialty treatments, allows for shorter therapy time and a high degree of success. Lengthy therapy is unnecessary in order to experience positive results and achieve desired goals. I work with both individuals and couples.

Throughout the 50 years I have been helping clients improve their lives, the resilience of the human spirit continually amazes me. I see therapy as a collaboration: my job is to listen carefully to the issues and concerns that worry and frustrate you and your job is to present your concerns to me. Together we will develop a working relationship with the goal of helping you overcome your problems and fears. It is my pleasure to join you in this journey.

When you feel safe and supported in the therapeutic environment, the partnership you develop with a therapist can bring about gains that will change the trajectory of your life in significant and deeply rewarding ways.

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to gain a deeper sense of fulfillment in your life. By exploring and understanding your feelings, thoughts and behaviors you will begin to develop more self-awareness and self-acceptance. It is quite rewarding to better understand the many complicated and self-sabotaging part of yourself and gain more control over those behaviors. Developing insight allows you to have a greater understanding of who you are and the life choices you have made. Insight and self-awareness give you more freedom to make healthier choices and change unsatisfied areas of your life.

I come from a relational, holistic, strength-based perspective. My practice of over 30 years has taught me that psychotherapy is a blend of art and science. Compassion, creativity, and attuned listening coupled with well researched therapies and holistic thinking (mind-body-spirit) defines my practice. Throughout my career I have been dedicated to helping people overcome obstacles so that they can lead authentic and fulfilling lives. Treatment specialization includes: Therapy for depression and anxiety, pre-marital counseling, marriage/relationship concerns including loss of emotional/sexual intimacy, infidelity, women's sexual health concerns, issues specific to the LGBTQ community

I believe in the power of therapy and mindfulness meditation. I've been witness to the growth and flourishing of so many people, as they discover and release themselves from age-old blockages and fear. I know the power of releasing the 'inner critic' and the value of discovering 'wise mind.' My psychotherapy home office is a refuge, where you will have the space to look within, and free yourself from whatever inner cognition(s) are holding you back. I promise to bring you the most effective, evidence-based strategies, including advances in neuroscience, to increase your overall wellbeing and whole-heartedness.
