Therapists in Mount Sinai, NY

Welcome. You have taken the first step on your journey to gain support and guidance for whatever you may be challenged with at this point in your life. I am an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker, providing care for individuals (adolescents, adults, and seniors), couples, and families. I specialize in Anxiety, Depression, Grief and Trauma, Relationship Issues, Parenting/Fertility Concerns, and Cultural/Intergenerational Issues. I also have extensive experience working with families whose loved ones have special needs or substance use issues.

Therapy can be a scary undertaking, but I am here to offer a safe and non-judgmental environment in order to work together towards developing treatment goals. I understand that depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, low self-esteem and self-harm can impact daily functioning. We will work together to explore emotions and develop new and effective coping strategies. Working on improving communication skills and boundary setting can make a big difference!

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.

I believe there is strength to be found in our weaknesses, love to be found through our pain, and light after our darkest days. The pain of healing comes with the self-awareness that otherwise may be over looked. When it becomes more painful to stay in our past then it is scary to step out of it is when the journey begins. I walk beside my clients, not in-front or behind. I remain steady and follow their lead. I provide the safety and hope that everyone needs to face their pain, to feel their pain, and to keep going anyway.

Life can be overwhelming sometimes and you do not have to struggle alone. You have strengths within you that we can build upon. I have skills based on years of study and experience that I will share with you. We will work together to resolve your current challenges while we examine patterns of thinking and behavior in order to avoid or quickly resolve future stumbling blocks. In an atmosphere of trust, comfort and acceptance, we can achieve lasting solutions. I work with children ages 12 through 19, as well as adults; specializing in anxiety, stress reduction, life coaching, adjustment disorders, couples and parent counseling.

Are you tired of feeling depressed or anxious? Are you suffering from a mood or personality disorder? Is your relationship in trouble and you constantly find yourselves arguing? As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I support my clients in identifying the thoughts and behaviors which have not been helpful to them over time and assist in developing healthy habits and coping mechanisms which will lead to happiness and success.

Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. I am excited to get to know my clients and help them achieve their short and long-term goals. I use hypnosis and mindfulness practices for those who are interested in learning to heal self. I enjoy working with "the overthinker" and "worrier". I have specialized training in working with individuals that live with anxiety disorders and cope with various medical conditions. I am a cognitive-behavioral therapist that has training in DBT.

In my work as a clinical psychologist, I believe the connection between therapist and client to be the most important agent of change. Healing happens best in the context of a warm, collaborative and supportive relationship. When an individual is going through a difficult time or life experience, he or she often feels small, disconnected and incapable of making positive changes on his or her own. In safe connection, it becomes possible for the individual to feel empowered, connected and more flexible and capable of making the decisions and behavioral changes necessary to heal and/or move forward.

Within a safe, empathetic and non-judgemental environment I will collaboratively work with you to identify your needs and goals. With compassion, empathy and care for all who find themselves in need, I strive to provide the best help possible based on current research. I will journey with you as you forge new paths in your life, within your relationships. Whether you are experiencing feelings of despair, loneliness, a sense of disconnect or you have a history of significant loss, trauma, unsatisfying relationships; Intimacy issues, life long feelings of sadness, of not fitting in, belonging, unable to experience true joy,I'm here.

In the blink of an eye, the world has changed overnight. You may be struggling with insomnia or moods that upset you and that are damaging your intimate, family, and peer relationships. Recent changes in society and your living situation may have triggered life transitions which have sorely stretched your ability to cope. You may feel stuck in a repetitive cycle, making the same mistakes over and over without understanding why and feeling powerless to make productive and positive changes. Maybe you feel traumatized or that choice has been taken from you and you are grasping at regaining some semblance of normalcy in your life.

As a dedicated therapist, my ideal client is an individual who recognizes the importance of their mental health and is motivated to embark on a journey of self-discovery & positive transformation. I am passionate about working with individuals facing various challenges, such as substance use, anxiety, depression, & relationship issues. In my therapeutic approach, I prioritize creating a safe & non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions freely. My ideal client is someone who seeks not only to understand themselves better but also to develop practical coping strategies to navigate life's complexities.

If you're an adult dealing with a life transition (e.g., college, marriage, parenthood, new career/career change, loss of spouse/partner, etc.) or relationship issue (e.g., constant arguing, separation, divorce/break-up, etc.), I want to help you. If you are experiencing distressing symptoms of anxiety, loneliness or sadness - and you want to feel more like yourself, I can help you. If your emotional struggles are tied to a life event or you don't know why you feel this way; if you feel overwhelmed, tired and confused and just want someone to help, let's talk it through and create a plan for you to feel better, happier, calmer.

Are YOU ready to transform your life? Are you feeling overwhelmed by consuming thoughts, feelings, and repeating circumstances in your life? Are you feeling stuck, and not where you imagined you would be? Have you tried to make changes before, but for some reason, it just didn't work? If you answered YES to these questions, it's time for you to stop doing the same thing over and over and expecting the outcome to be different. It's time for you to start healing and move closer to the life you've always imagined you could have. It's time to make the change..now. YOU can do this, and I am here to support you.

What is a “mindful parent,” exactly? A mindful parent is the one that asks: how do I know that what I am doing is preparing my child mentally and emotionally for an increasingly complex future? How do I optimize the relationship I have with them right now to better ensure they become an adult that is empowered not entitled, self-reliant and compassionate, curious, and competent in a world of increasing artifice? Those are great questions and, luckily, we have the answers. Developmental research has identified ways you can enhance the parent-child relationship to prepare your child for a more secure, autonomous adulthood.

I've always thought that life is extraordinarily beautiful, but also exceedingly difficult and even brutal at times. As a therapist, my goal is to make the therapeutic process comfortable, meaningful, and productive. I've worked with all walks of life, but I think the kinds of people who might benefit the most from my services are those that are looking to gain insight and use that insight to create lasting change. My approach is simple, 50% bottom up - How did we get here? & 50% top down - What can we do about it? Over time, we'll work to put the pieces together, establish a plan of action, and create hope for a better tomorrow.
