Therapists in East Rockaway, NY

I am a mental health counselor with a limited permit, working under the supervision of Dr. Sheila Chiffriller, a licensed psychologist. I provide psychotherapy to a diverse population of clients, specializing in survivors of trauma, borderline personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, LGBTQIA+ issues, anger, family issues, couples' issues, bipolar disorder, chronic illness, grief and bereavement. My practice is rooted in principles of affirmation, intersectional justice, harm reduction, and embodiment and holds the position that social oppressions and systemic problems operate as barriers to wellness.

If you are finding yourself struggling often with your sense of self, traumatic experiences or interpersonal challenges, I would absolutely love to help you through my approach; I provoke deep insight in my clients through an empathetic multidisciplinary approach in order for them to gain a deeper understanding of themselves so we can cultivate healthy approaches and solutions to their challenges.

I am a therapist with over 15 years of experience and there is no problem, issue, or group of people that I haven't worked with in my career. At a Long Island hospital I am in charge of training and supervising new therapists and I have taught in a CUNY graduate school program for mental health counselors.

We are a team of licensed counselors passionate about working with clients who are seeking mental wellness. We can support you as you combat anxiety and depression, explore your identity, wade through life transitions, or learn to build healthier relationships. We can help you discover the strengths that nourish your inner resilience - because we do believe experiences of trauma, oppression, and neglect shape you, but we also believe you have an incredible ability to heal. It is for this reason we adopted the blossoming cherry tree as a symbol of our work - it reminds us of the ways that being open to change builds resilience.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors on issues related to stress management, mindfulness, life transitions, coping strategies, assertiveness, emotion regulation, and more. It is my job to help you take that first step towards making positive change in your life.

I'm an interactive and dynamic therapist striving to provide a compassionate space to explore your inner world. The goal is to develop insight while learning skills to effectively navigate challenges and reduce suffering. Utilizing a dialectical approach, (balancing both self-acceptance and desire to change), we journey together to build the life you want to live. Many of my clients have been through traumatic events and describe feeling stuck in cycles of self-destructive behaviors, thinking patterns, and relationships. Treatment is tailored to the individual client and what they want out of therapy.

You feel like you've got a "good life"... yet inside, you're feeling lost. You're often feeling anxious, even lonely, something just doesn't feel right. You don't feel like yourself. You find yourself having anxiety over the littlest things, feeling BIG emotions that remind you of your past, and you just cant stop being hard on yourself. You feel like you're on "auto-pilot", at work, with the kids, in your relationships. You're wanting a healing experience that is more than just talking, you need to find your inner strength. You're ready to feel more present and experience healing that helps you truly grow from the pain.

You deserve to be seen, heard, and accepted. My goal is to continue to hold a safe space - free of judgement - for clients to express/process thoughts, feelings, and experiences within. An integral part of my role is to guide and support you as you explore root causes influencing present circumstances as well as create healing, catalyze change, and release any mental, physical, and/or emotional blockages that may be interfering with a truly happy, healthy, and balanced life. My approach is warm, pragmatic, and holistic. I strive to create strategies to meet your needs in ways that are realistic and meaningful.

One of the most meaningful aspects of therapy is how it provides a person with the opportunity to discover their inner self. The gift of therapy is that it reduces loneliness, emotional pain, and secures you to your authentic self. As a therapist who has worked with individuals, couples, and families of diverse backgrounds, I have seen the impactful growth clients have achieved. I work with adolescents, adults, couples and families who are struggling with relationships and other interpersonal challenges. I use a client based strength model of therapy which emphasizes the value of the client's unique strengths and capabilities.

Are you feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed? Do you struggle with following through on making positive changes? Are you having trouble setting boundaries in your relationships? Do you just "feel off" and you're not sure what's wrong? When life inevitably throws us curveballs they often highlight our self-doubt, and negative feelings and beliefs about ourselves and others that we had been ignoring or didn't even know we had. You may have experienced loss, a difficult diagnosis, relationship or marital challenges, or you are carrying a painful trauma from your past. Maybe you are simply looking to gain clarity and self-awareness.

We all go through the journey called ‘life’. We often don’t realize how our past experiences play out in our daily lives. We then have various reactions which can hinder our levels of function- emotional, physical and spiritual. Through therapy, I work with my clients to guide them in exploring, understanding, and accepting their experiences. Together, we develop tools to help manage their different symptoms and improve well-being.
