Therapists in Wyandanch, NY

Have you ever wished that you could talk with someone about your deepest troubles and worries without being judged? Do you want to have someone who can help you untangle your emotions while feeling safe and accepted at the same time? Do you feel lost in a world where everyone else "has it together?" I assure you that everyone at some point in their lives would benefit from therapy. No issue is too big or too small- if something has been on your mind and you cannot resolve it no matter how hard you try, you've come to the right place.

Do you feel that you are struggling with life experiences, looking for a safe place to explore your emotions and express them? As a compassionate and dedicated mental health therapist, my focus is to help you feel heard, empowered, to safely overcome challenges and to achieve personal growth. My goal is to provide you with support through this therapeutic process and use necessary tools in this journey.

I believe validation is a key component when engaging in therapy. I can aid you in naming those thoughts/emotions you may struggle to name. My goal in the therapeutic relationship is to offer support as well as tools to highlight your strengths. I am available to provide you with tele-health services that can address your mental health needs with a warm and supportive approach to psychotherapy. I came into this field because I have a passion to assist, guide and partner with individuals to be the best version of themselves in their current season of life.

I relate to client struggles through the lens of real-world experience. During my 30 year career supporting others through workplace and life challenges as a leadership and executive coach in HR/organizational and leadership development roles for corporations and nonprofits, I found my calling as a psychotherapist in how “what we do,” intersects with “who we are." My approach is eclectic and intuitive, tailored to your unique needs, and drawing from various therapeutic modalities, including neuro-informed somatic practice, and strengths-based perspectives.

Do you feel trapped in cycles of anxiety and racing thoughts or burnt out from the stress of high expectations? Are you ready to try something different from talk therapy? I work collaboratively with my clients to guide them in reclaiming their lives back from tough emotions by reconnecting to their values. Together, we will figure out which approach works best for you. Whether that be ERP for OCD, ACT for anxiety, or understanding how past experiences influence your life. My integrative approach emphasizes a combination of modern evidence-based treatments and insight to make real, meaningful change.

We all come with unique experiences and circumstances therefore, I customize each session to reflect the specific needs of my clients. Working with men on the variety of concerns they face everyday is truly a passion of mine. Providing a safe venue for men to freely communicate and candidly express themselves is essential to the therapeutic process. Together we will work towards exploring potential areas of growth and improvement utilizing empathy, awareness and effective communication. I treat a variety of issues and especially enjoy working in a 1:1 format.

Do you feel exhausted by your emotions? Do you struggle to express what your feeling without causing problems in your relationships and day-to-day life. I work in a group practice and we specialize in working with individuals who struggle to manage their emotions. They may feel angry often which results in arguing and fighting with loved ones. They may feel like their moods are always up and down and at times can feel really depressed. I help my clients learn ways to balance their emotions and express their frustrations/needs more effectively.

Beginning your journey towards improving your mental wellbeing can be overwhelming but my approach to therapy is to meet you where you are and support your healing. Therapy provides you with a safe, non-judgmental space to process and feel heard while supporting you to gain the means and tools to cope with life. I have been trained through a multicultural perspective and my therapeutic style is one of a person centered approach. This means that I take into account your unique perspective of the world and work with you to create the best possible healing space for you personally.

Pregnancy and parenting through the early childhood years can be incredibly rewarding and incredibly challenging at the same time. I specialize in supporting families during the transition to parenthood through childhood. Whether you are experiencing the expected stress related to parenting in general or you have concerns about your child's development, behavior, mood, or sleep, I am happy to be part of your support team. I also have specialized certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C). We will work collaboratively to find unique solutions to support your family's needs and help you find the joy in parenting.

Sometimes all that stands in the way of your happiness and peace of mind is the way you think about things. It's remarkable how our own thoughts can work against us creating anxiety, depression and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck. The happiness that you truly want and deserve is actually within your control! Whether it's getting rid of your fears, understanding why you feel sad, finally having that healthy relationship you have been yearning for, reducing stress, finding balance, or finally being able to answer the question "what will make me happy?".

Often times the most challenging periods of life are when we are in transition or beginning a new chapter. Are you a young adult, maybe beginning college or not sure of next steps to take. Perhaps you’re feeling overwhelmed at all the new expectations, social dynamics, freedom and responsibilities. Parenthood is another huge life transition. Perhaps you are pregnant, newly postpartum or your child is going through a difficult time? Anxiety & depression are common feelings during such times. How are you coping? I would love to help you explore and grow as you move through this moment in your life!

In working together, we may get to understanding the source of these experiences and discover new ways you can communicate and adapt going forward. We all must adapt to the world around us in order to survive- my goal is to help my clients introduce new ways of adapting while strengthening self compassion, understanding, and emotional connection.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. My approach in facilitating change, wellness, and personal growth includes using a humanistic lense in therapy. I believe that the client knows best what they are ready to do, and comes to therapy with the desire for change, as well as the skills necessary for personal growth - even if they are currently not accessible. In our work, we will identify your unique strengths and values, and collaborate on envisioning a life that’s meaningful and authentic to you while letting go of who you've been told that you’re supposed to be.
