Therapists in Medford, NY

Life can bring uncertainty and pain that we need help to navigate and heal from. Are you feeling unhappy or lost? Having relationship difficulties? Worried about the future? Have you endured great losses or hardships that are leaving you feeling confused, isolated or unlovable? You do not have to shoulder this alone. Maybe you want to feel fulfilled or joyful. Maybe you want to cultivate meaningful relationships. Maybe you want to grow in ways you never thought possible. I am passionate about helping people put the pieces of themselves back together in a way that leaves them feeling inspired and open to life's possibilities.

Have you experienced loss and are finding it difficult to move beyond grief? Do you feel nervous and often doubt yourself? I am a compassionate and dedicated licensed therapist committed to providing high-quality mental health care to adults. I have expertise in working with individuals who have experienced anxiety, trauma and loss. I have additional experience working with active military, veterans and law enforcement officers.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed or unmotivated? Do you find yourself worrying about the future, reliving the past, or having trouble remaining in the present moment? Have your relationships been strained or have you been feeling disconnected from others? I can help you to clarify your thoughts and feelings, identify unhelpful patterns, and assist you to look deeply into all areas of your life. I have a warm, compassionate, and down to earth style and can empower you to look within yourself to find the tools to implement change. I utilize a person-centered, integrative approach, and draw from mindfulness-based interventions.

If you are feeling overwhelmed by issues such as anxiety, re-experiencing past events, or feeling generally stuck I can offer you a relaxed environment in which to overcome your struggles. Together, we will find a balance between understanding, acceptance, and change. In therapy a supportive relationship is fundamental, and we will explore together how to best help you reach your goals. I am EMDRIA certified and use the framework that our past experiences can be contributing to our present discomfort. I have worked with people on a variety of issues, and I look forward to speaking with you to discuss your situation.

What if you could walk around this planet with a deep sense (knowing) that everything about you, just as you are, is ok? Truly just fine? You can. Or maybe you're feeling stuck, needing help to galvanize your courage to make a change, to dare to live your very best life? A warm and supportive relationship with the right therapist will help to re-engage and energize your own existing internal resources, the parts of you that are already confident, calm, creative, courageous and compassionate. We can do this work together.

Are you someone who is coming to terms with your identity? A person struggling with anxiety, trauma or coming out? Someone looking for an inclusive safe space where you can finally be honest and begin healing? If you are looking for a Queer Latina to provide you with support and healing from those challenges in life, you found her. I am passionate about my work with BIPOC individuals, LGBTQIA+ community members and those in non-monogamous relationships.

Our sessions are a safe place to unleash your anxiety, stress, or depression. I connect with my clients easily and take an active role in moving you forward in life-changing ways. Talking with an experienced, caring, and non-judgmental listener helps my clients heal, change and make a difference in their lives. Individuals and couples uncover strategies to recognize and change self-defeating thoughts and behaviors that result in negative outcomes in themselves and their relationships.

If you or someone you know is finding themselves overwhelmed by the demands of daily life, struggling to manage their emotions, and feeling stuck in a cycle of negativity and self-doubt, there is no better time to pursue change than in the here and now. My goal is to assist my client's in finding inner peace, emotional stability, and the capacity to overcome personal challenges. This work is done through self-exploration and establishing inner-resilience by channeling individual strengths.

Tara Daniels, LMSW, serves in NYS through Telehealth Care. She serves many diverse needs with many treatment modalities using a generalist approach.

If you are looking for a safe space to explore your life experiences, I am glad you are here! I am a very open-minded individual who is willing to listen and understand your needs and support your process. My goal is to meet each individual exactly where the client is at, and utilize therapeutic tools to explore and guide each experience.

Making the decision to engage in therapy can be a daunting and at times a scary undertaking, but rest assured, this is a time of self-growth and positivity. I believe in a Person-Centered approach, which means that WE work together in the process of therapy toward formalizing your desired treatment goals for self-growth.

As a clinical social worker, I know the relationship between client and therapist is the most important aspect of treatment. I provide a safe, trusting, supportive and nonjudgmental environment where together we can explore and work on reaching your goals. My passion is helping adults find relief from feeling stuck, depressed or anxious and who are searching for fulfillment and happiness. I am also dedicated to helping teens navigate the difficulties of adolescence.

I utilize a person-centered, strengths-based approach with my clients and believe each client is the expert of their own story. I pride myself on creating a therapeutic relationship with each client and working towards achieving their goals. I am a strong believer that therapy is not only valuable in a time of crisis and severe mental health challenges, but as a preventative measure and can help immensely with transitions in life.

My philosophy is simple in regards to problem solving, effective communication, improving relationships, working towards reaching a personal maximum potential and in healing from trauma. It’s to identify thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs. I believe that as soon as a person is able to communicate these four insight oriented drives, life immediately begins to improve and problems get solved. While this may sound easy, for many people it takes time to gain insight, self-evaluate, uncover and accept why we are the way we are (ie: biology and life experiences), decide on and follow through on changes to make in their life.
