Therapists in Putnam Valley, NY

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of direct clinical experience. I specialize in working with culturally diverse young adults (aprx age 18-35) who are having difficulty regulating themselves and experiencing some level of emotional and/or behavioral distress, which sometimes leads to significant problems in school, at work, and/or in relationships with oneself and others. Often, this distress can be eased with increased self-awareness that supports your ability to regulate your internal experience so your emotions feel manageable, your thoughts are more comforting, and you have more control over your behavior.

Welcome! Whether this is your first time searching for a therapist or you are continuing your therapy journey I commend you for making the most powerful commitment to YOU towards healing, growth and self-care! I am committed to working with you to identify and create your unique therapy plan to work towards self-love, self-compassion and your desired goals. Meeting you where you are in your life and listening with true empathy is of the utmost importance to me. This allows for the development of trust and safety in our therapeutic alliance and paves the way for you to Love and Accept your true Authentic Self.

Transitions are difficult and overwhelming at any age. You feel stuck, and unable to think clearly. Many days you are experiencing anxiety, depression, mood swings, and irritability. Past traumas and the heavy weight of life are being triggered and getting in the way of your best self. Picture what it would look like to have a more positive, and stress-free life where you can move forward. I work with children and adults through issues that are causing anger, mood swings and problems with friends and relationships.

If you're a woman, young adult, or teen struggling with stress, depression or anxiety, you've come to the right place. You might feel frustrated, exhausted or completely lost. You long to feel good about yourself and excited about your life. You may ask yourself, "How did my life get so messed up?" My work supports you in improving your mood and feelings of self-worth while helping you develop more joy. If you're a parent, I'll help you alleviate your worries about your teen as you become more confident in your parenting. Our therapy will help create deeper relationships within your family. I want to help you and your family thrive.

We are here to help. We have been helping people learn how to make the changes they want since 2008. Feeling lost in life? Increasingly anxious? Relationship woes? Worried about your child or teen? You are not alone. There are other people out here going through the same things too. This is temporary. Please reach out to us. You can call our front desk, email, or reach us through chat or message through our website. A licensed therapist will get back to you. We are in network with most insurance plans, so hopefully that helps you make this important decision easier.

Ready to talk about it? Let's start therapy together! I work with children, adolescents, and adults all across the gender spectrum and in the LGBTQIA+ community. I provide education to families, discuss concerns related to gender and sexuality, and review the co-occuring mental health issues that sometimes accompany different gender identities. For trans individuals, the world of puberty blockers, hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming surgeries, and changing name markers can be overwhelming—I'm here to help with that, too. I’m happy to write gender-affirming letters for procedures or institutions.

I offer a non-judgmental, holistic, supportive approach to therapy with a focus on positive self-improvement, transformation & wellness. I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy even when there is not an immediate challenge or crisis. Goals in therapy are achieved collaboratively. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, loss/bereavement, mood/personality/eating disorders, substance abuse, ADHD & changing destructive patterns. I work with individuals (children/adolescents/adults), families, couples, and groups. I offer animal-assisted interventions including therapy dogs and equine-assisted mental health sessions.

I provide trauma-focused individual and EMDR therapy to adolescents and adults (ages 16 an up) who struggle with anxiety, depression, panic, trust/abandonment issues, relationship problems including codependency/intimacy dysfunction, self esteem/identity issues and symptoms related to childhood trauma which can include: flashbacks, nightmares/night terrors, sleep distrubance, avoidance of trauma-related stimuli and hypervigilance.

Have you wondered if you would benefit from therapy? I offer a complimentary consultation to discuss any questions you may have. As a senior therapist at Greenwich Psychology Group, I enjoy working with children and adolescents that may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral or family issues. You can talk to me about anything; nothing will surprise me. I am accessible to parents and easy to talk to. I focus on your child, recognize their strengths, and develop tools to become their own therapist by learning how to deal with challenges. Clients often feel better early on in treatment.

Mrs. Garcia-Davranova works with individuals and families from diverse backgrounds throughout the life span, including children, pre-teens, adolescents and young adults. She works with people struggling with a variety of presenting concerns, including trauma, grief and loss, familial conflict, parenting, attachment and separation, anxiety and depression, school and behavioral challenges, gender and identity exploration as well as major life transitions. She has over ten years of experience as an early childhood educator and holds certification in crisis intervention counseling.

I'm glad you've found yourself here. Acknowledging that you need support right now is a tough but necessary first step. Life and relationships can be complex and I find that it is often helpful have a neutral person to offer a listening ear, guidance, and to facilitate a process of gaining more insight about who you are and what you need. My role would be to help you work towards your goals, which may include building self-compassion, identifying and regulating uncomfortable emotions, processing old traumas, changing negative thoughts and patterns, overcoming challenges, strengthening relationships, implementing new coping skills.

The focus of my practice is to provide a safe place, where together we can work through any life-transition and/or challenges that may be keeping you from moving forward. Together, we will find understanding, resiliency and strength. I offer you a supportive, non-judgmental and compassionate environment. I favor a collaborative and person-centered approach. You have already taken the most difficult step by recognizing the courage involved with asking for help. I look forward to working with you.

The decision to begin therapy is rarely easy, but once you begin you may be surprised by the changes that unfold. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported, and challenged is central to this process. I've been fortunate to work with a wide range of people, including those dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, sexual issues, sexual and gender identity exploration, health concerns, artistic blockages, addiction, parenting, and fertility issues.
