Therapists in Hawthorne, NY

Congratulations to you for taking this initial step forward into your wellness journey. Through compassion, empathy, and attention, I provide a safe space for you to flourish and to grow as you address and heal your wounded parts. By establishing a warm and welcoming space, my goal is to help you to reach tangible goals and to have meaningful transformation. Together, we will do the required work to improve relationship to oneself so you can show up as your true authentic self,

I work with the latest scientific and best practices in psychotherapy with individuals, families and groups. With the use of a comprehensive assessment, I target treatment that matches your unique biological, psychological, social, learning and emotional history. Together we build a therapeutic relationship using science, safety and compassion, which are all essential to offering you the best possible insights. My Ph.D. work addresses assessment, human development, learning and mental illness.

You may have wondered whether therapy could be helpful to you. I offer a complimentary consultation to answer any questions you may have. I can help you explore your feelings, provide meaning to your experience, and developing your full potential. I can help become your own therapist by increasing your awareness, learning techniques, and coping strategies to deal with life's challenges. I work well with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, relationship issues, and body image issues. Clients frequently report improved well-being early on in therapy.

I bring warmth, compassion, humor and empathy to the therapeutic relationship, and I honor and prioritize the development of trust as a necessary foundation for successful treatment. I will create a comfortable atmosphere where you can feel safe and empowered to share your thoughts and feelings freely without fear of judgment. When working with me, you will be able to identify your strengths, gain a deep understanding of the themes in your life, and gain insight into past experiences, relationship patterns, and unhealthy coping skills that may be keeping you stuck.

In a caring home-office I offer supportive, practical, goal-oriented, cognitive behavioral (CBT) and dialectical behavioral (DBT) psychotherapy for accepting and processing what's past and embracing what's next with wisdom and ease. With 25+ years of experience in areas such as: infertility, cancer, health, stress, relationships, divorce mediation, family therapy, meditation and yoga, depression/anxiety and wellness, work/life balance, I have a strong understanding life's transitions, especially with teens, young adults and families. My hours are flexible. The first appointment will be helpful in understanding the client's history and desires and determining if the rapport is comfortable.

Do you feel overwhelmed or insecure? Do you struggle with repeating patterns of negative emotions and relationships? Are you stuck with past and current trauma and utilizing unhealthy means to cope? Do you over-manage yourself or surroundings to have a sense of control? I specialize in helping teens and adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, eating disorders, LGBTQ+ issues, work stress, cross-cultural issues, couples, family, and other interpersonal issues. My work emphasizes helping clients understand and overcome their internal blockages, and gain empowerment to make intentional and impactful choices in life.

As an eclectic therapist, I utilize the approaches that best suit the needs of my clients. I am a firm believer in life-long learning and borrowing best practices. While I am psychodynamically trained and often practice through a psychodynamic lens, my treatment and interventions lend themselves to a person-centered approach. It is my ethical responsibility to provide you with the care that best suits your needs.

I am a psychotherapist with 35+ years of experience. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is unique. This uniqueness develops when a person knows there is confidentiality and can safely talk about anxieties, sadness, loss and whatever is interfering with the person they wish to be. I have always felt clients personal problems are not the insurance companies business. Due to my experience I do not accept insurance and payment is out of pocket. Years ago before the pandemic I responded to a post from a therapist stating skype sessions were as beneficial as in-person sessions. The pandemic forced online sessions

Hello and welcome! NOTE: I am accepting new patients. If you’re here, you’re likely considering making a change in your life to “reroute” yourself, from whatever bumps or roadblocks that might have come your way. It would be a privilege to accompany you on your journey. I don't view therapy as 'one size fits all', and I want to work collaboratively with you to meet your treatment and support goals. You are the expert on you, and I consider my role to provide you with a safe and comfortable space to be yourself. I would love to meet you where you are, and help you get to where you want to be.

FREE consultations! Are you feeling stuck in negative thoughts, intense emotions, or behavioral patterns that don't serve your best interest? Are you hoping to build more meaning and joy in your life? You may feel hesitant about reaching out for help, especially with pressure from all directions to "have it all together". I'm here to join you on this journey to discover healing and build a balanced life. My goal is to help you find compassion for yourself, develop skills to help you navigate life stressors, and be confident in the resilient person you are.

As an experienced clinician I am aware what it takes to decide it is time to seek assistance either as a couple or for personal exploration. Entering into counseling provides you an opportunity to overcome patterns of behavior and thinking, to foster a positive self-image, and to build fulfilling relationships with co-workers, partners, friends and family. To achieve your goals I utilize an individualized approach that builds upon the strengths you already have and assist you to learn new ones. This is a collaborative process based on an understanding of your history, how it has shaped you and your personal goals.
