Therapists in Brentwood, NY

I am a psychotherapist, life coach and consultant with over 24 years of experience in the field of mental health. I completed a Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology at Lesley University in Cambridge Massachusetts and went on to study and work for The Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy in New York City . I have maintained a private practice in New York for 20 years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, codependency parenting problems ,career challenges grief and loss, loneliness, substance abuse, eating disorders and trauma

I offer Telehealth therapy services to adolescents and adults with a focus on substance use and mental health. I also work with significant others (spouses/partners, siblings, parents etc.) who seek support to cope with a loved one's addiction or mental health. The decision to begin therapy is deeply personal and often comes with much consideration. Choosing to share your story and acknowledge life's challenges takes courage and can be a new beginning for personal growth. I am a person centered Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor who will support you with compassion, dignity and respect.

I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples and adolescents. Clients describe me as being compassionate and non judgmental which helps to create a safe space to explore even the most difficult topics. I use several different modalities including mindfulness, positive psychology, and transpersonal theory. I believe in a mind body and spirit connection. Therapy is about supporting you in getting beneath the layers of habit, addiction, stress and obsessive thinking and help you recognize the essential self within rather than relying only on the mind, which is often the source of negativity.

I work with individuals coping with various concerns such as depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, stress management, co-occurring disorders, and more. I believe that all individuals, with the right tools can grow to become more self-aware and make decisions that nurture ongoing motivation for continued wellness.

My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore life’s many challenges. I work from a non-judgemental, affirming, collaborative, trauma-informed, and attachment based lens. I have experience working with individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, substance abuse issues, love addiction, co-dependency, personality disorders, relationship issues, survivors of abusive relationships/trauma bonds, anger, low self-esteem, grief, ADHD, PTSD, and complex PTSD. I believe everyone is unique...therefore, my style is to customize the therapeutic process for each individual.

Are you going through a tough time? Are you so full of anxiety that you find it challenging to navigate through the day? Parents, do you have a child that is struggling to focus at school or control their emotions? Are you hesitant to talk to somebody for fear of being judged? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Starting a journey in therapy can be scary, however it might just be the best decision of your life. Through experience, I've come to learn that there is nothing more comforting than hearing the words “I understand, I’ve been there or I can relate.”

Are you struggling with a mood that you can’t seem to control? Past experiences that still dictate your thoughts and behaviors? Or a life transition that your having difficulty coping with? I believe in a down to earth approach to addressing your struggles and I want to help you feel confident in your own head. I work with individuals, couples and families ranging from children to adults. Together, using a blend of CBT, DBT and mindfulness we can help you to live a healthier lifestyle with adaptive coping skills and more positive relationships.

Selected by NASW as Nassau County's "Social Worker of the Year for 2013", I have been providing quick symptom relief and comprehensive healing for 32 years. As I believe in "different strokes for different folks," I utilize Havening, EMDR, and DNMS to achieve these results. Clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and panic attacks have all benefitted. I also provide counseling for alcohol and substance abusers where I specialize in relapse prevention. Child and adolescent issues are also actively addressed, along with parenting concerns. Relief is available for those experiencing grief and other trauma i.e. car crash victims.

Therapy is ultimately meant to be a life altering process, from how you understand your personal challenges and problematic situations to how you choose your coping strategies and the options you see as possible for your life. It is my goal to guide and support you through this therapeutic experience to help you create a higher quality of life that resonates with your true self. Therapy starts where you are at, and it progresses one step at a time. I approach my clients with commitment, integrity and a vision of positive growth.

Are you consumed by negative thoughts and you don't know where to turn? Are you a teenager or adult grappling with unhealthy behaviors that just won’t stop? Toxic thinking patterns, behaviors and relationships can manifest in various forms and significantly impact mental health and overall well-being. Gaining insight into those patterns we easily fall into, is a necessary step to making profound changes in our lives.

Have you been struggling with how you're feeling and seeing it affect your wellness, your relationships, or your life? Have you been experiencing sadness, hurt, self-doubt, or are just trying to find balance and peace? Letting someone in can be scary but given the privilege, I would love to be able to walk with you in your journey towards personal healing.

Beginning therapy, especially for the first time, can feel like an intimidating task. I understand that firsthand. The hardest step is acknowledging you need extra support and there is no shame in that, only strength. No matter what the presenting issue(s) is, we can work together to unpack it and focus on what brought you here, what you need out of therapy and what your ultimate goal is. I view the mind and body as one and in order to best care for ourselves, we need to nurture and understand both. Often times, our environment or situations happening in our life can derail this and that's where therapy can provide a consistency.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience working with children, adolescents and adults. I have been in the field of mental health for over 10 years and provide ongoing individual, couples and family counseling.

In life, we all encounter struggles that we need help with. Whether it be low self-esteem, anxiety, life transitions or other daily stressors, I can assist you in creating a more productive and happier lifestyle, while improving your mental, emotional and physical health. Together we will build a strong therapeutic relationship through the utilization of a warm, nurturing, non-judgmental approach. My focus is person-centered and strength-based to help clients tailor their treatment to their specific needs and become a better version of themselves.

There are challenges that we experience in life in which resilience and hope seem distant while stress, uncertainty, and anxiety are inevitable. Struggling with trauma, transitions, or overwhelming emotions can feel depleting. A combination of art psychotherapy incorporating various treatment approaches may offer you the tools needed to tackle the obstacles you are facing in your life. I view the dynamics of our therapeutic relationship as if we were driving in a car together. You are ultimately the driver- hitting the brakes, pressing on the gas, changing direction of the steering wheel, and most importantly in control of the car.
