Couples Counseling Therapists in 10601

Perhaps you're feeling down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. SHIFT Your Journey Mental Health Counseling, is a licensed mental health private practice based in Connecticut (CT) and New York (NY). Our team of dedicated therapists aim to provide a safe and affirming space for communities of color to heal, grow and thrive. Our approach to care is holistic, evidence-based and culturally responsive. This means we explore your full self (background, culture, generational history, etc.), not just your mental health condition/situation.

No matter what you are going through, you deserve to feel supported and heard. By fostering a trusting and non judgemental atmosphere, we can work through your challenges and stressors together in order to get you on track to living a more fulfilling and joyous life. Through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based practices, we will empower you to heal, grow, and thrive in your day-to-day life. Your wellbeing is my top priority, so come as you are and take the first step in working towards becoming the best version of yourself.

I'm a dedicated psychotherapist with an extensive and diverse background, spanning private practice, schools, college clinics, foster care, and hospitals, including acute care. With a passion for treating individuals of all ages, I specialize in harnessing the power of evidence-based therapies to create long-lasting positive change, focusing on the core of issues, rather than surface change. I take pride in fostering a safe, warm, and compassionate environment that embraces the unique perspectives of clients from diverse backgrounds. Even the most resistant patients find themselves engaged in the therapeutic process under my care.

Michaela is a passionate Cognitive Behavioral therapist (which is the most effective, researched, and validated therapy to date). She will work with you to identify and change overly negative thinking and unhelpful behaviors that interfere with your mood, reaching your goals, or hampering interpersonal relationships. She works with those struggling with depression, anxiety, worry, phobias, stress, body image issues, performance anxiety, defiant behavior in children, relationship struggles, and work/school issues.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I work with individuals, couples and families seeking change. You may be challenged by anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, difficulties in relationships or the stressors of life transitions, such as divorce or changes in your career. Like all transitions, moving through stages of adolescence, into college and onto adulthood can bring stress, uncertainty and confusion but also tremendous growth. Our work together will seek to promote self-awareness and desired change.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the level of stress in your life? Would you like to learn helpful skills to improve your mood? Do you want to change your relationship with food and your body? If so, I am here to help. I am dedicated to providing high-quality therapy delivered with compassion and expertise. We will work closely to develop a personalized plan aimed at helping you make positive changes in a timely manner. My focus is to help you build upon your strengths, gain new skills, and achieve the personal growth you seek.

I am a psychologist providing therapy and assessment services for children through adults. I have extensive clinical experience and am an expert Cognitive Behavioral Therapist.

I strive to regularly advance my knowledge and provide leading scientific treatments. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, panic, OCD, trauma, stress, insomnia, ADHD, defiance, and work/school issues. Many of my clients lead busy lives; therefore, I offer evening appointments.

For many of us, there comes a time when something in our life feels out of balance, out of control. Perhaps it's our marriage or partnership, a family relationship, a job, our health. As a psychotherapist, I feel my goal is not to provide you with answers or advice, but to help you understand yourself, your world, and your place in it.

As a New York State licensed clinical psychologist for over 25 years, I offer a private, safe, supportive, healing environment for individuals, couples, families, professionals and groups. I am inspired by the resilience, strength and courage of the clients I work with everyday and it is my goal & commitment to help my clients to grow and live their "best lives". I believe in the importance of self awareness, insight and reflection to understand our relationships with others. I treat a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, school performance, grief, psychological evaluations and relationship issues.

As a therapist, I aim to create a safe, stable, friendly, and explorative environment free of judgment.

We can explore nearly any thought or feeling you have and find deep, meaningful insight.

During my career I have had the privilege of working with ages across the lifespan ranging from infancy to the geriatic population. I've enjoyed working with everyone I've come across. I have experience working with a multitude of populations, such as culturally diverse minorities, LGBTQIA+, and so much more. Understanding and empathy have been my strong suit and I make sure every one of my clients have a space where they are able to share their inner thoughts, goals, and concerns. I have experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using aspects of Feminist Theory, and I tend to take a Person-Centered approach to therapy.

Coming from a proud Mexican background, there is a special interest in working with clients who have experienced cultural and linguistic barriers to accessing mental health care. I see therapy as a way to heal and grow. A place that you feel safe and with emotional support to begin the path that you always wanted but needed support in getting to that point.

If you are feeling bad about yourself and aspects of your life, therapy can help improve your self-esteem, mood, and the quality of your life. I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling with a wide range of issues. Some are confused and unhappy about their relationships or troubled by their performance at work or school. Others come into therapy because of a crisis in their lives, such as illness, divorce, or the loss of a loved one. I also see people who are having trouble adjusting to a life transition, like going away to college or becoming a parent. Still others are bothered by events from the past. Whatever the issue, feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed and/or angry are common.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by your current life circumstances? Does your life's purpose seem derailed at the moment? Are you feeling alone, where it seems that no one understands what you are going through? Perhaps there is a relationship that is causing you a significant amount of stress. Would you be interested in developing your strengths in order to better cope with your suffering and achieve your goals? I have my doctorate in psychology and specialize in the assessment and treatment of both children and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and adjustment to life stressors.

If you're feeling stuck or are having difficulty focusing, I can help you. I've worked successfully with older adolescents, adults, and couples struggling with (among other things) anxiety, depression, issues around sexuality, and relationship difficulties. Therapy is an opportunity to share your innermost thoughts and feelings in a safe space. I offer a warm and supportive environment where you can express and explore ideas openly and honestly. I am active in therapy and will challenge you with constructive feedback when appropriate. Therapy may entail examining patterns in your life that block you from feeling fulfilled.

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues.

As a black male and a Jamaican immigrant, I understand the unique challenges that marginalized communities face in accessing mental health services.
