Infidelity Therapists in Putnam Valley, NY

My expertise is working with couples and individuals who want to improve their communication and resolve conflict harmoniously. Strong emotions such as anger, depression, and anxiety can stymie resolution or reconciliation. Are you both committed to your relationship, but struggling to resolve a conflict or get along? Learning how to process the dynamics in your relationships can empower you to make the changes you desire - including recovery from infidelity. I get excited when I have the opportunity to help couples find connection in the midst of the conflict.

As a trained marriage and family therapist, I specialize in the counseling and treatment of distressed couples and families. With a special interest in family dynamics and couples' interaction patterns, I have expertise in helping couples to identify and overcome barriers to closeness and communication as may be affecting their ability to meet normative challenges of family life. I have experience helping couples recover from extramarital affairs, manage emotional or behavioral difficulties of children, negotiate divorce, remarriage and step-family adjustment issues, and cope with non-normative and more highly stressful life events.

My goal for treatment is to provide a safe environment for clients to increase awareness and learn to challenge themselves to make step-by-step changes. Anxiety and depression are many times clues to internal discourse. Whether it's related to a relationship, job, or general life stressors, learning to manage your thoughts, feelings and emotions will help keep functioning at optimal levels.

It can be daunting to find a therapist who speaks your language and is the right match for you. My professional experience and therapeutic approach has developed over more than 35 years of private practice. You will find my approach warm, straightforward, conversational, and focused. I offer a blend of psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy, which means I respect the value of understanding past influences and patterns while believing that by developing specific new skills you can successfully change unhealthy behavior and thinking.

"Alis grave nihil": Nothing is heavy to those with wings. My goal is to help clients learn to fly above their pain, fears, stressors. My job is providing the tools and guidance to recognize the issues. In my practice, these tools might include cognitive or behavioral techniques or other methods/theories, including mindfulness. The approach to wellness might include spiritual or physical health but, in all things, the focus is on the client and it always takes his/her needs and desires as primary. Beyond techniques is always the importance in discovering the underlying causes. There is no one path. For each person it is unique.

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.

I aim to support your capacity to grow and change, feel grounded, and to live to your highest possibility!
