Therapists in Syosset, NY

I have several years of experience helping clients with an array of challenges. My clients are teenagers and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and drug and alcohol dependency and abuse.

I strive to understand each individual's issues and needs through the different phases of the therapeutic relationship. I find patterns of thinking which surface from recurrent automatic thoughts. I thus obtain a comprehensive understanding of the person in his/her functioning. Through a pro-active, attuned, caring, neutral, compassionate and non-judgmental stance, an empowering process is developed, leading to an enhancement of self-esteem. I have come to see how people can better understand themselves and their relationships, and am able to to help them make improved choices for themselves, and to live more meaningful lives.

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.

I believe the process of change through therapy should not only involve self-understanding and insight into the past, but beyond that it should also focus on helping clients to learn skills for present-time challenges. Therefore my approach helps clients to develop specific skills for thinking and acting in constructive ways. I am a proponent of therapist actively collaborating with a client to help him/her find ways to manage life better.
