Attachment-based Therapists in Old Bethpage, NY

My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore life’s many challenges. I work from a non-judgemental, affirming, collaborative, trauma-informed, and attachment based lens. I have experience working with individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, substance abuse issues, love addiction, co-dependency, personality disorders, relationship issues, survivors of abusive relationships/trauma bonds, anger, low self-esteem, grief, ADHD, PTSD, and complex PTSD. I believe everyone is unique...therefore, my style is to customize the therapeutic process for each individual.

Our childhood, history, and personal myths about ourselves are powerful forces that have the ability to shape our interpersonal relationships and behaviors; worldview and ourselves. At some point, we all have experiences, challenges or life altering experiences that will have the ability to change our trajectory, bring us to a cross road or that will challenge our core beliefs about ourselves and the world around us. Through my work with individuals, families and couples I have enjoyed helping others to navigate these obstacles in order to transform these adverse experiences into opportunities of growth.

I specialize in working with both individuals and couples. My goal is to provide maximum relief from your emotional distress as quickly as possible. Towards that end, my treatment methods are aimed at helping you to live real life more happily. You can expect to be asked "What is it that you most want to change about your life?". If you are uncertain about what you want to change then sorting out that uncertainty will be our primary initial goal. I am committed to helping you achieve a deeper understanding and an effective remedy to your problem.

Limited Availability - - - Have you ever felt like everyone was given a manual for life except you? Life is a beautiful journey filled with moments of joy and meaning. However, it can also throw us challenges leaving us feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or physically and emotionally unwell. If you find yourself in this space, know that your mind and body are trying to communicate that something needs attention. Approaching change can be intimidating, but you don't need to navigate it alone. I will create a warm, safe space, free of judgment, to guide you towards self-discovery and resilience.

"You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." (A.A. Milne). Helping a client become or feel more empowered is a key approach I take in my practice. I focus on helping my clients reflect on personal issues in order to better understand them and make the positive changes they desire to make.

There are challenges that we experience in life in which resilience and hope seem distant while stress, uncertainty, and anxiety are inevitable. Struggling with trauma, transitions, or overwhelming emotions can feel depleting. A combination of art psychotherapy incorporating various treatment approaches may offer you the tools needed to tackle the obstacles you are facing in your life. I view the dynamics of our therapeutic relationship as if we were driving in a car together. You are ultimately the driver- hitting the brakes, pressing on the gas, changing direction of the steering wheel, and most importantly in control of the car.

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.

Life is hard, bad things happen, and you need someone to help you sort it out. That's where I come in so we can work through the hard stuff together. In my 26 years as a therapist, I have helped my clients reduce anxiety and depression, improve relationships, heal from trauma and loss, navigate life transitions, and effectively manage and cope with ongoing stressors of daily life. I provide practical strategies and clinical understandings that improve your mental health and life satisfaction. You leave each session clear and hopeful. Therapy is casual with me. I'm active, yet patient, and commpassionate, yet straightforward.

Navigating life can be difficult, but more so if you have anxiety and depression or have faced trauma or loss. These feelings can cause you to feel overwhelmed and out of control. There are times in everyone's life when they can benefit from support, guidance and help in understanding why past coping skills may no longer be helpful. Through a non-judgement, supportive environment, I work with my clients to identify strengths, validate truths and explore patterns and beliefs that may no longer be helpful in attaining their goals. Virtual sessions are offered to make it easy to connect in the comfort of your home.
