Therapists in North Tarrytown, NY

I work as a psychotherapist and coach in New York, using a relational and solution-focused approach to support clients in living out their values, improving their health and functioning, and deepening their sense of meaning, purpose and wellbeing. My work is influenced by mind-body and compassion-focused therapies, positive psychology, attachment theory, dialectical behavior therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. My work is heavily informed by the years I spent as a behavioral scientist and researcher exploring meaning and mindfulness-based approaches to behavior change and optimal functioning.

Are you not feeling quite yourself. Maybe you are going through a life transition. The end of a relationship or a life event that hit unexpectedly. Perhaps you are a bit down, not interested in the things that used to excite you. Or maybe you have noticed your mind is crowded with anxious thoughts that interfere with enjoying the good in your life. Is work causing you undue stress. Are you having conflicts with friends or family that are tiring you out. Are you feeling stuck and in need of a change of direction. Do you have unresolved hurts from your past that are interfering with your ability to be present in hour life now.

I practice Holistic Psychology and am passionate about making evidence-based therapeutic practices accessible. Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and strengths-based. My approach is grounded in scientifically-backed methods with specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). I see clients of all ages ranging from young childhood through adulthood, including families and couples.

She was a fellow in Columbia University’s DBT Training Program and trained by the renowned Behavioral Tech Institute. Working with adolescents through adulthood, Tori has cultivated a wealth of experience and expertise in addressing a wide range of therapeutic needs across the lifespan. Her focus lies in the treatment of emotional and interpersonal dysregulation, OCD, anxiety-related disorders, social anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and couples/family issues.

Psychotherapy is, most honestly, a very remarkable and often surprising kind of 'conversation.' The distinction being that when we have a 'conversation,' we only know where it will begin, but not where it will end. The 'getting there,' the movement toward 'the end,' is often a thought-provoking, pleasurable, funny, sad, profound experience that changes people in wholly positive ways. When therapist and patient develop a good working relationship, transformative things can happen. My work centers around creating a serious, useful, and private space to begin exploring the depths of what causes you to suffer, or feel misunderstood.

Each intervention is tailored to the individual's needs, ensuring a comprehensive approach to therapy.

I'm not your average trauma therapist. Hi, I'm Staci and I'm a modern psychotherapist for post-grad "Quarter-Life" New Yorkers. Triggering events and major life transitions you're facing are leading you to feel stuck, lost, isolated, worried and stressed AF. I help you FINALLY get a grip on your anxiety so you can unlock your full potential. My east-meets-west mind-body approach is modern, relatable, collaborative. I meet you where YOU are and work with you from here to create a safe, sacred space for you to reflect on your strengths and challenges, gain insight, and move towards meaningful and lasting change.

My clients are looking to become curious about thought patterns and triggers that have developed throughout their experiences. Awareness is imperative to healing and moving forward.

Let's take the journey towards living a happier, more satisfying life. I welcome you (individually, as a couple, or as a family) with respect, acceptance and a safe space. Part of the process involves slowing down, learning what's beneath the surface, and seeing relationships (relationships within yourself and with others) in new ways. Together we will address what prevents you from living your best life. My approach is eclectic, collaborative and strengths-based; informed by contemporary theories/modalities. I overcame obstacles in my own life and found contentment. I'm passionate about working with you to find yours.

Learning how to navigate life as a young adult is hard! You are trying to balance the demands of work or school, family, and friends, all while figuring out who you are and who you want to be. As a driven and successful individual, you may put a lot of pressure on yourself and feel constrained by your own expectations. This can lead to constant self-doubt and feeling like you’re always reaching for an unattainable goal. You may be overextending yourself to others, and not focusing on yourself. Perhaps you have negative thought patterns or behaviors that are causing discomfort or you don’t always understand your reactions.
