Depression, anxiety and anger can really impact your overall functioning and quality of life. I believe that people's lives can improve and that change is possible. My strength based approach to treatment will allow you to process, reflect, problem solve and develop coping strategies to promote personal growth. The goal of treatment would be for you improve your relationships with others, cope with life stressors, and manage symptoms more effectively.
My experience ranges from treating depression, anxiety and mood disorders in both adolescents and adults. My office is comfortable and easily accessible by public transportation. I also manage a group practice, Wellness Psychotherapy Services and can offer you an appointment/consultation with BCBS, CIGNA, Northwell Direct and Aetna.
I have had over twenty years experience in this field. My treatment approach is eclectic. The modalities I utilize in my practice is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths Perspective, Mindfulness CBT, Motivational Interviewing and Psychodynamic Therapy. Please email me directly to schedule an appointment.
