Therapists in Monroe, NY

My lens in psychotherapy is informed by the principle of organicity; that every person has within them tremendous wisdom and the ability to heal. I view psychotherapy as a journey to assist the client in clearing the boundaries to their own unique healing path. I work with many different evidence based modalities including IFS, EMDR, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy which provide many different lenses and approaches to working with a variety of presenting problems. My primary focus is on Trauma, both upper case "T" and lower case "t" as well as addictions- with males from 12 to adulthood. Looking forward to crossing paths soon!

Perhaps you're tired of the same old thing: You walk into a therapist's office, sit down and wonder, "Can this person really help?" In my office, I may be the expert, with a PhD in clinical psychology and almost 20 years of experience, but my expertise is in guiding you toward your own wisdom and your own concept of healing. If you struggle with inauthentic relationships that are disconnected, empty or wanting, know that our work is about connection, authenticity and creating a full rich life. Common struggles I see are anxiety, depression and trauma in adults, kids and couples. Bring your family, your partner, even your pets.

What is the meaning of my life? Is the goal just to live longer or should I seek a higher purpose? On one hand you seem to be accomplished, driven and determined but of the inside you never feel good enough and the automatic thoughts and voices in your head never cease to remind you that you're just not there yet and falling short. You've been struggling while trying to keep it all together however you find yourself exhausted and with doubts. You're always there for others putting others' needs first while you continue to be last on your list. It's time to change, this feeling has to end, and you will find the meaning of your life!

I use empathy and understanding to foster a collaborative practice. I specialize in life transitions, addiction, and neurodivergent needs. I am committed to supporting individuals on their journey towards healing and personal growth. One of the key aspects of therapy that I like to focus on is emotional regulation, which is crucial for overall mental and physical well-being. I've helped numerous clients manage stress, process trauma and cope with difficult situations.I teach practical strategies and prove a safe space for emotional expression, which empowers clients to develop a healthier relationship with their emotions.
