Farsi Therapists in Narrowsburg, NY

Seeking help is hard. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has practiced for decades focusing on assisting Individuals of teenagers, adults, couples and families. I utilize insight oriented and cognitive behavioral techniques, psycho-education, as well as many other therapeutic concepts to promote a supportive atmosphere so that my clients gain acceptance and control over their issues.

I am a Psychotherapist, Life Coach, and Consultant. In a career that began twenty-five years ago in the Middle East, now established in NY, I have seen clients from every conceivable background who have sought nurturing guidance to face trauma, anxiety, grief and sadness. Often, whether working with persons suffering from loss or separation, abuse victims, veterans, refugees, or families of substance abusers, I have witnessed that moment of clarity in a client when they realize there is actually hope for a better, more satisfying life. This, I believe, is the essence of therapy and I strive to smooth the path towards and beyond it.
