Psychologist, PsyD

Starting therapy and finding the right fit can be a daunting task. I view the therapeutic relationship as something that is co-created over time and as the primary tool for healing. I have experience working with teens providing specific insights and tools relevant for that stages of life as well as across the lifespan and the many difficulties that can come up along the way. Focusing on the here and now, we work to increase self awareness, compassion, insight and care while simultaneously holding the larger context within which we meet, including ways that race, gender, class and culture impact our experiences and identities.

Experiencing anxiety, fear, anger, and sadness is a natural part of being human. How you respond to these emotions is what makes all the difference and can dictate whether you sink and struggle or thrive and grow. Amazingly, it is by facing and bringing love to what you wish you could 'get rid of' that allows parts of you to transform and metabolize into the power and grace you long to feel. My job is to help you navigate this journey and learn the skills to be your own captain; to help you see how much choice you actually have.

Psychologist, PhD

Therapy is your journey. If you invite me to walk along beside you, I will offer to you my best critical thinking, understanding, compassion and theoretical knowledge based on 20 years of working in this field. I am adept at pointing out signposts, synchronicities, other paths and directions that you may not have noticed along the way. Sometimes we need another set of eyes to tell us when we are just about to step in something gooey and stinky. And other times we need help getting it off the bottoms of our shoes so that we can continue onward.

People often come to see me when one or more hurdles stand in the way of living the life they want. Clients frequently have concerns related to interpersonal relationships, family conflict, divorce or breakups, work/school-related struggles, life transitions, grief, adoption, and immigration. They may have wrestled with eating disorders, body image, anxiety, depression, and the effects of one or multiple traumas. Some of my clients have experienced a sense of emptiness, self-criticism, perfectionism, and lack of motivation. My clients have diverse identities and backgrounds, which are respected and valued in our work together.
Daniel R Ostrow
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
How do you wish to engage in life? Are you getting what you want? Are you getting too much of what you don’t want? We average 6,200 (mostly negative) thoughts a day. Are you wishing for more loving relationships, good will, affection and purpose in your life? Pain rolls through our lives and understandably we wish to avoid it. We often deflect pain but inevitably it returns. Our habitual behaviors take root over many years, often initially helpful but later in life constrict us. I offer an approach to notice how you incur distress by turning toward what you wish to avoid with a sense of curiosity and care.

My approach is both client centered and trauma-informed as I incorporate Compassion Focused and Acceptance and Comitment Therapy into our work together.

"What one person has to offer to another, is their own being, nothing more, nothing less" - Ram Dass. My therapeutic approach is a strength-based perspective that focuses on a person's innate potential rather than pathologies and shortfalls. Consistent with this approach, my role as a therapist lies not in solving problems but in helping clients examine inhibited issues and biases, identify practical solutions to their problems and progress towards deeper wisdom. I have worked with clients of various ethnicities, addressing a range of mental health issues, relationship problems, and life transitions.
