Culturally Sensitive Therapists in Crompond, NY

We are all much more simply human than otherwise (Harry Stack Sullivan). I believe that one finds mental health in meaningful, connected relationships with others-our parents, partners, children, friends, siblings, and therapists. I bring warmth, humor, and honesty into my therapeutic work, and act as a support and guide as you work to improve areas of your life that you are inspired to change. I focus on growth and reparation, not pathology. I have a broad range of experience with all ages and ranges of problems, and can offer comprehensive treatment to children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and groups.

Is current life testing your ability to cope? Have chronic concerns persisted? My therapeutic style facilitates health in response to many struggles; anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship conflicts, grief, as well as, sexual, emotional, and physical trauma to improve your quality of life. With supportive use of psychodynamic knowledge and Somatic Experiencing, emotional resilience emerges. Assessing where progress can flourish, we use the most relevant methods for addressing your specific needs. I offer therapy that addresses acute and chronic issues, fostering healing by the integration of past, present, body and mind.

Are you seeking a therapist that provides a safe space to sort out what is on your mind with a warm, empathetic, laid-back and non-judgmental approach? This is the type of environment I strive to offer my clients in therapy. I am a holistic practitioner that offers a combination of both conventional and alternative techniques depending on my client's wants and needs. I provide counseling from a lens that recognizes the impact societal inequalities can have on an individual. I offer a style that is intended to build empowerment, confidence and freedom from what you think is holding you back.

Psychotherapy offers a transformative path to address various mental health concerns, such as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and personality disorders. As your therapist, I am committed to embarking on this journey alongside you, guiding you towards a deeper understanding of your unique challenges and the intricate interplay between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, all of which profoundly influence your mood.

Haley provides evidence-based therapy for children, teens, and adults. She has had the opportunity to provide care in private practice, school, and medical settings. This array of experiences has fostered her ability to understand clients through a multi-disciplinary lens and draw upon a multitude of evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Behavioral Activation, Prevention-Focused Care, Crisis Intervention, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Exposure and Response Prevention. She utilizes these therapies to target anxiety, stress, depression, OCD, trauma, and executive functioning deficits.

Perhaps you realize that you are not where you want to be. Perhaps you feel that you are not living as fully as you might. Perhaps you are not sure what is wrong; you just know that you could be doing better. My role is to help you sort it out and identify the thoughts and behaviors that have you stuck, change you self-limiting beliefs and remove the barriers to living your best life.

Feelings are messengers that guide us into a fuller, more vibrant life. They help us know what is best for us, create meaning in our lives, and motivate us to take action toward positive change. If we allow space and listen to their wisdom, movement toward the life we long to lead becomes possible. Bringing warmth and empathy, I provide a supportive environment where clients can explore unprocessed feelings, long-standing beliefs, and untapped wisdom.

Coping with life’s challenges is not always easy and finding a therapist is often a huge step. Therapy can help us to better understand ourselves and develop the tools required for living our fullest and most authentic life. Together, we will work on creating new patterns of behavior and moving you toward positive change. I focus on helping women and the LGBTQ+ community with challenges such as: trauma, depression, anxiety, disordered eating and body shame. I also work with folks moving through life transitions such as career changes, grief/loss and breakups.

My clients are contemplating change, and are interested in diving further into opportunities for growth, self-exploration and transformative experiences. Adjusting to new situations, working on communication within interpersonal relationships, and looking for self-growth. They are open to conversation, and looking for a deeper connection to those around them. I work in partnership with my clients to develop the most effective goals for treatment and beyond.

Are you longing to connect with something bigger than your pain and fears? Would you like to try a different approach? Spiritual Counseling (SC) is a gentle, caring, supportive, process that honors your unique spiritual beliefs. It is not about proselytizing but exploring what spirituality means to you. SC can help you cultivate a more profound sense of peace, experience greater joy, find meaning and purpose, explore careers, and heal from life’s inevitable traumas and setbacks. While very similar, Spiritual Companioning is not psychotherapy. Please get in touch with me to explore this transformational modality for free.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 22 years experience working with adults doing individual and group therapy.

Over 15 years of experience in mental health as a Social Worker, I've had the privilege of journeying alongside adolescents, children, and adults through their mental health challenges in various settings such as hospitals, out-of-home placements, and working in community-based settings. My approach is deeply rooted in compassion and understanding, focusing on nurturing each individual's strengths and honoring their autonomy in crafting their path toward healing. I recognize that every person's journey is unique, and I strive to create a safe and inclusive space where clients feel heard, respected, and valued for who they are.

I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults for the past 20 years utilizing evidence based practices. I specialize in counseling victims of domestic violence and persons with co-occurring disorders. I believe in a person centered integrative approach to counseling and am experienced with utilizing community resources to maximize therapeutic benefit. In our sessions we will work together to explore and identify issues to be addressed as we build a relationship of trust.

Do you feel stuck in a pattern due to depression, anxiety or a traumatic event? You do not have to do this alone. I will provide a safe and non judgmental environment for you to come to heal. I have 23yrs of experience in this field. I utilize a relational model as well as EMDR. I also can refer to alternative treatments for those who are open. I am also a certified herbalist. Together we will increase your coping skills. I will help you to build a 'tool bag' for life. I have taught at a masters degree level at Fordham University and do corporate wellness programs and provide supervision for therapists.

My goal for treatment is to provide a safe environment for clients to increase awareness and learn to challenge themselves to make step-by-step changes. Anxiety and depression are many times clues to internal discourse. Whether it's related to a relationship, job, or general life stressors, learning to manage your thoughts, feelings and emotions will help keep functioning at optimal levels.

I believe that while we cannot change our past, we can use the information from our past to shape how we live now. I know that you are the expert on yourself. My role as your therapist is to provide space where you can make sense of and learn from the past to help you deepen your insight and knowledge of yourself. I also offer tools and resources that support coping with current issues in a healthy way.

It’s not easy making the decision to begin therapy. As your therapist I will listen, connect, and collaborate with you to help you feel comfortable, safe and listened to. I have experience with clients from a wide variety of cultural, ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds as well as extensive knowledge working with patients with medical issues and dealing with end of life issues.
