I work primarily with kids who struggle with
Grief
, Divorce, Domestic Violence/Abuse, school and social related issues, Adjustments, Low Self-esteem, Anxiety, siblings of cancer patients.
Do you often find yourself alone in your parenting struggles? Raising kids is a tough job, one for which you may think you are unprepared. You are challenged by playing the multiple, and sometimes conflicting, roles of referee, cheerleader, and coach. You constantly need to manage the wide range of your child's emotions and behaviors. From a simple refusal to listen, to full blown temper tantrums, it is a constant struggle figuring out how to respond to your child's varying behaviors effectively. Yes Parenting isn't easy, but there is hope. You don't have to walk this journey alone.

Hi there, my name is Sheldon Cohen and I am glad you're considering what it might be like to work with me.

I am someone who is passionate about your mental health and am driven to help you feel empowered and successful! I have a Bachelors in Sociology and a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy.

For me, the connection between client and therapist, as well as creating emotionally safety, are two critical ingredients in a successful therapy experience. We will collaborate to identify the specific areas about which you want assistance; such as, relationship challenges, every -day stressors, trauma and
grief
therapy, and mood regulation skills — to reduce anxiety and depression. Oftentimes we struggle with an inaccurate narrative, filled with shame and self-critical thoughts. Despite feeling stuck in negative patterns, we can rewrite that script and develop greater resilience.

Grief and Bereavement is the acute pain that accompanies loss. Because it is a reflection of what we love, it can feel all-encompassing. Grief is not limited to the loss of people, but when it follows the loss of a loved one, it may be compounded by feelings of guilt and confusion, especially if the relationship was a difficult one.
