Gay Allied Therapists in Cold Spring, NY

People thinks you have it together all of the time. Really, you are overwhelmed spending all your energy making it look so. No one would know you are highly stressed, both at work and at home. You take care of everyone else's needs before your own, and while its exhausting, you feel too guilty to put yourself first. You have always succeeded in school and in work because that was what was expected of you. However, you know you are not living your truth. You know it's because you never took the time to figure out what truly fulfills you. As you try to sleep your heart pounds while you criticize yourself for not being good enough.

Have the huge life changes induced by the Covid-19 pandemic brought you to the brink of despair? Many patients grapple with employment change or loss and a resulting lack of structure, identity and purpose in life. Others struggle with spending 24 hours a day with their partners and/or children and attempt to console themselves with substances. Older folks and ones with chronic and/or life-threatening disease experience increased isolation and helplessness. We've all lost some of our favorite coping mechanisms! Psychotherapy enables you to reveal a self you may have kept hidden and to cope and change in ways that you desire.

The decision to begin therapy is rarely easy, but once you begin you may be surprised by the changes that unfold. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported, and challenged is central to this process.

I provide trauma-focused individual therapy to adults (ages 18 an up) who struggle with anxiety, depression, panic, trust/abandonment issues, intimacy dysfunction, and self harming behavior.

Making the choice to seek and begin therapy is positive and courageous. It's often a valuable step toward resolving the issues that are blocking the pleasure and fulfillment you deserve. Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Poor body image? Do you have concerns about your sexual functioning? Issues with libido? Pain or discomfort with sexual activities? Having relationship difficulties? Struggling with sexual identity, orientation, or gender expression? Any or all of these can impact your overall well being. I aim to support your capacity to grow and change, feel grounded, and to live to your highest possibility!

It takes courage to reach out for help and take action to change your life. Selecting a therapist who is the best fit for your personality and situation is an important decision. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I counsel adults, couples, and adolescents. I use a strength-based approach to help my clients define and achieve their goals. One of my main interests is in working with couples to help them understand their needs as individuals and as partners and to communicate more effectively. I also work with individuals to make their lives more satisfying and rewarding. At this time, I am providing telehealth services.

I believe the true pillars of continued success and growth are based on intention and relationships. If you're having trouble finding your "Why"? I am here to inspire simple changes that are a transformative guide on your journey to renewed health, restored relationships and a greater joy for living. The transition from "stuck" to "moving" is my passion. There is a powerful reciprocity between the mind and body connection. To meet each clients' unique needs, I enjoy using walks and hikes as a way to engage and communicate, and I always make humor and comfortability a priority. You are in control of the progress we make together.

The focus of my practice is to provide a safe place, where together we can work through any life-transition and/or challenges that may be keeping you from moving forward. Together, we will find understanding, resiliency and strength. I offer you a supportive, non-judgmental and compassionate environment. I favor a collaborative and person-centered approach. You have already taken the most difficult step by recognizing the courage involved with asking for help. I look forward to working with you.

Have you been having trouble finding an open-minded therapist you connect with? Are you going through something that needs attention, and not sure where to seek help? Therapy can help you gain insight into persistent patterns and issues, connect some of the moving parts of your experiences, and guide you toward actualizing your full potential. I provide guidance and support to individuals looking to find answers to problems with relationships, trauma, self-esteem, career stress/burnout, depression/anxiety, and family estrangement.

Are you feeling broken, stuck, and defeated by difficult past experiences? Do you struggle to make it through your day without feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed? Almost everyone has felt this way at one point or another in their life. All of life's challenges right now may be making it difficult to find peace within yourself, but you do not have to continue to feel this way. I can help you take back your life and find your truest authentic self once again.

Each person is unique with his or her personal history. I enjoy working with those who have come to realize that they need a change, that the same old way of doing things is no longer working and it is time to learn a better way of coping.
