Therapists in New City, NY

Sadness and fear live inside us all. At times, we are so used to feeling depressed and anxious that it seems as though there is no point to try and work through these struggles. But there is a part of us that wonders- maybe there is a way to find contentment in life? Maybe there is a way to make peace with pain? Maybe I do not need to feel so alone? In our therapy practice, we provide you with clinicians who are both skilled at their work as therapists and empathic and warm human beings. We value creating an accepting and safe environment whereby you feel comfortable expressing your struggles and fears.

The way in which people navigate the world is through experience. Many of us have had difficult experiences at different times in our lives which have contributed to the way in which we view the world and more importantly, ourselves. As such, most people carry negative views or beliefs about themselves that are simply not true. Until those beliefs are challenged in an effort to change them, we more often than not, experience emotional or psychological discomfort in many forms. Therapy is a space that serves to remind each individual of their ability to positively impact their lives by cultivating a more accepting view of themselves.

With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I work with a wide range of human difficulties. From young adults trying to find their way, to couples struggling to communicate, I believe that my work is to draw out the hidden potential in each individual. Throughout the years I have trained in a wide spectrum of modalities, ranging from practical, solution-oriented behavioral therapy, to attachment theory and advanced work with the subconscious mind. And sometimes just talking about an issue in a safe environment, giving it words, allows the next step towards a happier life.

There are times in our lives when we may feel as though we are just going through the motions. Past experiences, perhaps dating back to childhood, could show up in a variety of ways in your adult life. Sometimes you may realize that there could be a connection between your past affecting the present but you are not quite sure how. You may be experiencing a variety of overwhelming emotions, some of which could be contributing to anxiety, depression or showing up in your interpersonal relationships. This may have created the potential opportunity for you to begin your healing process. It is my intention to assist you in this journey.

NOTE: I am not accepting new private practice clients at this time. By choosing to participate in therapy, you are giving yourself or your child a precious opportunity to pause. Together we will create a safe space to develop insight, participate in self-discovery and engage in healing. You will be viewed from a holistic standpoint, and our work together may help you anchor yourself to the present moment. From there, we will explore how you got here, and where it is that you would like to go. There are often an abundance of discoveries throughout the healing process along with many opportunities to create the change you seek.
