Therapists in Mastic Beach, NY

Beginning therapy can be scary, intimidating, and stressful, but can also make a big difference in your life. There are times we feel stuck, lost, confused, angry, or hurt. Periods when relationships feel like they’re falling apart, life feels aimless, or we feel unhappy and can’t quite pinpoint why. For some this is new, while for others it can be a lifelong struggle. Therapy provides a safe space for processing thoughts and feelings, for exploring the past and its influence over the present, and for risking change. Therapy can help you cope with challenges and make sense of what has happened so you can gather the skills to grow.

I am a warm and inviting therapist that has created a sacred space with your healing in mind. I offer my clients the elements that I find most valuable in any therapeutic relationship; support, encouragement, empathic listening, non-judgement, interaction, collaboration, and trust. With a varied toolbox and skill set that we can draw upon, I enjoy blending evidence based practices with more creative approaches when called for. Some clients are open to including mind/ body based practices in their work with me while others may pursue a more traditional route. Ultimately, we will work collaboratively on the issues you are facing.

My focus as a therapist is to guide people towards their authentic confidence while helping you identify patterns that are holding you back from a value-aligned life. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are navigating issues with eating disorders, anxiety disorders, body focused repetitive behaviors (skin picking/hair pulling), body image and ADHD. I am also particularly passionate about working with athletes and those who experience visible differences, such as hair loss. Together we will navigate how you can show up authentically in a world where being yourself can feel like a rebellious act.

I am experienced and passionate about treating a range of disorders including depression, anxiety, ADHD, learning disorders and individuals with high functioning autism. I am particularly focused on helping individuals improve their self esteem. Whether it be for my passion for changing the stigma on men’s mental health, working performance anxiety in athletes at the highest level of their sports or helping high functioning individuals on the autism spectrum overcome their social anxiety and improve their communication with peers.

You did everything you were supposed to do. You went to college, got the job, found an apartment but you still feel like crap. You've been on a million dates, but it never seems to work out. At this point, it feels like you're going through the motions. On paper, your life seems great. You're paid well, you have friends, and your Google Calendar is full with events. Your parents brag to their friends how wonderful you are, but you feel guilty for not measuring up. You're not happy and you don't know why.

I believe in the transformative power of therapy and the comfort of having an ally and someone who is on your side, by your side. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, angry or experiencing other emotions or mood fluctuations, you may feel like no one is on your side or understands you. It can feel overwhelming and negatively impact you and your relationships. You may not want to see anyone or it may be hard for you to regulate your emotions around others. You want to feel better and interact with others in a healthier way. You want to be present and fully engaged in your life but do not know how to get there.

I have several years of experience helping clients with an array of challenges. My clients are teenagers and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and drug and alcohol dependency and abuse.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities were confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

I'm easily triggered and over-react. I need to stand up for myself but how and what to say in a way they can hear me? I can't seem to keep a healthy relationship going.

Good therapy works. However, there are often barriers between you and "good therapy."
