Therapists in Nassau County, NY

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities where confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

We all share a common human desire to love, be loved, feel gratified by and successful in our work, and experience a strong sense of connection to the people in our lives who are most important to us. Yet most of us struggle with some or many of these issues at one time or another as the feelings we seek may be interfered with by depression, anxiety, or anger. Diverse factors such as our family background, economic difficulties, losses, life transitions, trauma, addiction, and physical problems may reduce our ability to feel good about ourselves and our lives.

We are a not for profit community resource dedicated to providing low-cost psychotherapy to adults, adolescents and children. Our group of licensed clinical social workers, psychoanalysts and psychologists are postgraduate therapists. In therapy, we address a wide range of challenges, such as anxiety, depression, difficulty in relationships, sexual dysfunction, life crisis, problems of self esteem, physical or sexual abuse, stress related to work setbacks, the emotional problems of adult children of alcoholics, chronic feelings of emptiness, loneliness and eating disorders.

New patients and referrals often ask me how I practice. My reply is usually that it is up to them! Since I have been trained and have considerable experience in a variety of approaches (cognitive, behavoral, psychodynamic,couple therapy),it really depends on which approach would be most effective and acceptable to them. Because of different personality types, people do not all respond well or the same to only one approach dictated by someones training. Most find this non cookie cutter approach and attention very effective and rewarding.

When we are wrestling with anxiety or depression, all we think of is getting rid of the pain. But actually, the focus must be on making you emotionally healthy, i.e., enabling you to become a happy and fulfilled individual. In my 40 years of working with people, all emotional ill-ease dissipates with a robust sense of confidence and resulting good mood. Think of those moments when you have felt entirely confident and happy. Did you experience any emotional discomfort? Of course not. For those moments, you felt wonderful. It is psychotherapies’ goal/mission to give you the tools to elevate your mood every single day of your life.

When we are looking to heal, we deserve a safe, compassionate space in which to do so. I use a warm, non-judgmental approach to work collaboratively with my clients, honoring you as the expert on yourself. Whether you are navigating a loss, trauma, challenges in your relationships or finding it difficult to cope, our work will be built on our connection. I support teens, adults, and families in building fulfilling lives, freer from the burden of what currently feels intolerable.
