Therapists in Floral Park, NY

I firmly believe that the longest distance one will ever travel is that between the heart and the mind, and I'm here to assist you on your journey, helping to traverse or close that gap. I am well-versed in and deeply believe in the connection between the mind and body, working with you to become the best version of yourself. As a practitioner of Transcendental Meditation along with a foundation in non-dualism, Buddhism, and Zen, I foster a unique therapeutic experience. I also use stress management in our work using diverse methods such as mindfulness-based meditation, self-hypnosis, guided imagery, and visualization.

Are you feeling stagnant but can't seem to get "unstuck"? Grappling with shame and guilt from past wounds? Living in fear-based cycles or struggling with harmful relationship patterns? Maybe you're seeking a greater sense of peace, balance and inner security? Sometimes our past can cast shadows that eclipse our hope for a better future and rob us of our joy in the present moment. While the path toward healing can be daunting, you don't have to go it alone. Taking the first step can be one of the hardest, most pivotal and rewarding of the journey.

My focus is on introspection & interpersonal relationships. I integrate a traditional and holistic approach in a safe and peaceful setting. I tailor to your personal needs and wants by removing the masks and uncovering your personal truth/individualized self. My practice incorporates skill building to help you understand why you make the choices you make and to live your life through self-acceptance, self-love, and confidence

My most important goal working with clients is to build a trusting and safe partnership. I hope to provide an inviting, empathic, supportive, and non-judgmental space to explore the depth of your inner truth and to help you actualize the life you envision for yourself. Together, we will explore past experiences, including family dynamics and your early life, in addition to thoughts, feelings, and current patterns of behavior to provide insight into how you can better cope with issues impacting you now. Often, we are more resilient than we believe we are - I'm here to help you harness that strength and find hope again.

As a psychotherapist and healer for many years it has been my privilege to offer and provide help and comfort to people in distress. Experience has taught me that we all struggle to recover from the pains of the past, deal with the challenges of the present and the insecurities of the future, in our efforts to live the best lives that we can. This often seems very difficult if not impossible to accomplish alone. A strong and nurturing therapeutic relationship is a powerful and stable foundation for dealing with these challenges to our well-being, especially in these very troubling and uncertain times.

I have experience working with a wide range of patients from young children to older adults. I approach therapy from a patient-focused and strengths-based lens, believing that each individual has the capacity to overcome life's challenges when it comes to all areas of work, relationships, and family.
