I borrow from a variety of theoretical modalities, including CBT, Mindfulness, and Family Systems, but I tailor my approach to meet the needs of my clients.
Life Is Hard! In today's climate many are struggling with anxiety and depression. Relationships are being tested. Individuals with addiction issues are struggling to maintain their recovery. Many feel disconnected, hopeless and doubt their ability to resolve their own problems. If you identify with these feelings, I can help you. I am an LCSW-R with years of clinical experience helping individuals and couples improve their lives. I have extensive experience working with individuals and loved ones impacted by addiction. I currently see clients remotely who reside in the state of NY. I also see clients in-person in Garden City, NY.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
