Medicare Therapists in Old Westbury, NY

Hello and thank you for visiting my page. I am a graduate of the Clinical Psychology program at Hofstra University. I have also completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Kennedy Krieger Institute and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine specializing in the assessment and treatment of severe problem behavior with individuals with developmental disabilities. I am centrally located in Hauppauge, NY. I provide assessment and therapy for individuals with anxiety disorders, depression, and developmental disabilities. My goal is to provide a comprehensive treatment package to fit the needs and aspirations of those I work with.

Trauma impacts all areas of life. We may experience sudden, intrusive memories of childhood experience. We may struggle to manage our own children, and we may have problems connecting with others and building healthy relationships. Psychotherapy can help you re-frame your experience, and assist you in identifying, clarifying and prioritizing your values and coping skills, opening the door to a more meaningful life.

I am direct and focused on the issues that my patients bring to me. My 36 years of experience with children and parents afford me great advantage over those who have had no experience within school districts. In addition, my years of concurrent psychoanalytic training and social work have further sensitized me to allow me to help patients with all their major life issues. I am dedicated to my practice of adults, teens and children whom I help with all their problems that life brings.

Psychotherapy is a confidential interpersonal relationship formed between a mental health professional and a patient. In this setting issues are addressed related to a person's level of functioning internally (way of thinking) and externally (how they react to the environment). In treatment, patients are able to talk with someone privately who is unbiased and that provides an objective point of view to their pending circumstance and assists them with problem resolution. Psychotherapy supports people with getting in touch with and their inner most feelings and learning how to communicate it more effectively, so that they improve relationships with others in their life (family/work/friends/school). This form of treatment can be performed one on one, with groups, couples and/or families. Individual psychotherapy is provided to adolescents and adults. Additionally, couples counseling and family therapy is also available. The primary mode of treatment is through behavioral and cognitive therapy models. Psychiatric referrals are available upon request.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you better understand, resolve and find solutions to the challenges and/or trauma in your life. Depression, fears and anxieties can dull our ability to experience joy and lead a more fulfilling and meaningful life. By applying complementary therapeutic approaches, we can unearth behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from realizing your true potential while maintaining and protecting all that you have already achieved. I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues, providing services in a private office in a comfortable and supportive atmosphere.

STOP SUFFERING! NY Psychological Wellness, PC offers specialized and innovative programs for those suffering from Chronic Pain, Insomnia and the many difficulties that sometimes accompany these problems such as anxiety and depression.

I've always been a "people person" but started work in the field of technology. When laid off after 20 years, I saw it as a blessing in disguise, went back to school, and received my Masters of Social Work. I bring a sense of enthusiasm and energy which combined with some of the wisdom I've gained in life help me provide a high quality service to a diverse range of clients. Sessions are specific to each client's needs and can include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, relaxation techniques and other approaches.

I specialize in working with both individuals and couples. My goal is to provide maximum relief from your emotional distress as quickly as possible. Towards that end, my treatment methods are aimed at helping you to live real life more happily. You can expect to be asked "What is it that you most want to change about your life?". If you are uncertain about what you want to change then sorting out that uncertainty will be our primary initial goal. I am committed to helping you achieve a deeper understanding and an effective remedy to your problem.

What do we do when everything in our world, and the world around us, no longer feels safe and secure? Who do we turn to when our very foundation has been rocked? There are times in our lives when we face challenges. You do not have to struggle every day! You do not have to do it alone! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the field for over 20 years. I specialize in working with those who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse and family conflict. You are not alone, we are all in this together.

29 years experience helping adults, couples and families understand and address the sources of conflict in their interpersonal relationships and daily professional lives. The primary therapeutic goal is to effectively manage the negative emotions (such as low self-esteem, anger, anxiety and depression) which interfere with quality of life and achievement of personal and professional goals, inclusive of LBGQT life challenges. Pets are family too and an integral part of one's life and routine. The loss of a pet can be devastating. Hence, I also offer pet bereavement counseling.

Many individuals seek therapy when they're in a place of uncertainty, not quite feeling like themselves. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, or relationship issues. Or maybe you're struggling with stress, trauma, or parenting concerns. You don't have to go through this alone.

I am an institute trained psychotherapist with over 35 years of experience; I also have a Doctorate in Social Work and have been in a leadership position at a major psychiatric hospital in the New York area. I tailor methods and modalities of practice to the needs of my clients. I have had significant experience and training in working with individuals who are in crisis or have experienced traumatic events.

One of the many reasons why people cannot move forward is because they keep applying an old formula to a new level in their life. Change the formula to get a different result! We help people move from a life of pain, to a life of purpose. We strive to provide a holistic mind-body approach that makes an impact on our client’s lives, their family systems, and future generations to come.

Each of us have a unique story that reflects our life experiences and helps to shape our perspective of the world around us and how we view ourselves. Therapy is an opportunity to explore and understand your life story, heal from painful emotions, identify and build upon your strengths, and create lasting change to improve your overall sense of well-being. As your therapist, I aim to foster a warm, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment where you feel safe to engage in self-exploration and reach your goals.
