Therapists in Woodbury, NY

I firmly believe in creating a warm, enthusiastic, informative, and authentic environment for individuals to enable them to reach their goals and fullest potential - whatever that may be. Reasons for entering therapy vary - some people are looking for coping skills, a solution to specific problem, someone to help them gain more insight or simply someone to talk to. I embrace people’s individuality and do not believe that one size fits all. Although I am more heavily trained in cognitive behavioral therapy I consider myself an eclectic psychologist and utilize research based techniques from various different subfields of psychology.

I take an empathic and supportive approach to therapy by establishing a safe space for my clients to uncover and explore painful emotions. Whether you’re experiencing chronic stress, feeling anxious or depressed, together we will identify goals for therapy. I tailor treatment to meet the specific needs of every client—with the aim of helping the client develop new coping skills, enhance self-awareness, foster positive change, and increase overall satisfaction and well-being. My specialized training includes both cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy.

My practice specializes in empowering the individual to regain the perceived loss of control over their life. The main avenue is through the use of state of the art Biofeedback, Neurofeedback, Hypnosis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Techniques. The conditions treated include anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, insomnia and various neurological issues including ADHD and Tourette's Syndrome. I also specialize in various stress related conditions including headaches, gastrointestinal disorders, chronic pain, TMJ and cardiovascular problems.

My ideal client is trying to understand not only the root causes that created a less than optimal life functioning emotionally, socially, occupationally, academically, or intrafamilially, but the actual cognitive behavioral steps to remedy the problem. I believe most problems we encounter in our everyday lives can be improved upon and transformed into a life we have chosen.

I sincerely believe that people can change. Sometimes we just need help navigating that process. If you are experiencing distress, despair, or maybe just feel lost, I will help you find a solution. My approach involves helping people get unstuck from the destructive traps that we find ourselves in. I can help you tap into your internal strength, tenacity, and motivation. This will empower you to not only achieve your goals, but sustain them long-term. I do this through effective therapy techniques backed by scientific research, coupled with compassion, support, and encouragement. In our sessions, we can heal your suffering together.

Has a stressful or traumatic event left you feeling depleted, depressed, anxious, or disconnected from your loved ones? By getting lodged in our bodies, stress makes it very difficult to “just get over it,” or "move on." Moving forward and healing, however, is possible. Even by considering psychotherapy, you are making a very important first step towards regaining control of your life. Your choice to value your mental health is the key to getting back your feelings of agency, self-confidence, and sense of control of our own emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.
