Meritain Health Therapists in Smithtown, NY

Therapy can have many benefits when you're ready for change and work with the right person. It can be difficult to manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, general life issues and more when trying to do this on your own. I can help you achieve extraordinary results in your life, career and interpersonal relationships by working together to tailor a therapeutic plan that is unique to your needs and lifestyle. We'll put together a plan that will provide you with focus and awareness so that you can improve your quality of life and reach your goals

The decision to see a therapist is a personal one and perhaps the most important factor in that decision is the connection you make with the therapist that you choose. I create a safe, supportive and non-judgmental environment for you to discuss the challenges that you currently face. We will partner together to develop tools and coping skills to make positive change and live a happier life.

Life is unpredictable and can feel difficult to manage. It can feel like there is nobody to confide in resulting in feeling completely alone as if there is no light at the end of the tunnel. We all have a story to tell and our story is what makes us unique, but it does not define who we are. No matter what our story is there is always an opportunity to achieve the life we envision for ourselves. Therapy can help to provide the comfort, reassurance, and support to grow in the ways that we desire. Together we will work through challenges you’re facing by learning how to deal with these obstacles while exploring your true self.

What do you think of therapy? Does it intimidate you? In your thoughts, do you think the therapist is an out of touch, stodgy, judgmental person prying into sensitive topics or boring you with monotone lectures? Could therapy actually be fun? Or something you look forward to? What if therapy didn’t have to be scary or always serious but a time you set aside for yourself which you actually enjoy?

I was born in Colombia and moved to the United States at a young age, where I became bilingual in Spanish and English. As a first generation immigrant, I quickly learned and understood the challenges many of us can face. Also, at a young age my parents divorced and like many households, a lot changed for us. Our roles and responsibilities were different, my weekends were spent at “my second home”; and unfortunately I experienced 'parental alienation' by both parents.

Caitlin has over 10 years of experience working with children, adults, and families impacted by a range of neurodevelopmental disorders and mental health concerns. In addition to her experience working with the ASD community, Caitlin also has experience supporting children and adolescents coping with loss, grief, and trauma.

People begin to heal when they feel heard. This is the first step on your journey to healing. Have you been surrounded by feelings of anxiety, stress or depression?

In my sessions, I strive to create a non-judgmental and empathetic environment where you can safely explore these challenges. At first these hurdles seem impossible to overcome, but by working together we can make individualized, achievable goals that will provide the tools for you to conquer these barriers.

Ever had too many thoughts at once? Or the feeling of your heart pounding out of your chest? Or even just not having the energy to get out of bed in the morning? Thats called anxiety. One of the most important aspects to understanding the world around you and the stressors around you is to understand the dynamics of yourself. Many of my clients have struggled with ADHD, ASD, Anger management issues, impulsivity, stress anxiety, depression and so much more.

I understand that it can be difficult to make the decision to seek counseling and to find a therapist that you feel most comfortable with.

Do you ever feel lost, uncertain, or that existence is exhausting? You may be struggling with your day-to-day experiences, or the impact of past experiences. You don't need to go through this alone.

Taking the first step to start the therapeutic journey can be difficult. I have a deep understanding of the courage it takes to seek help when we need it, and I am glad you are here. I have extensive experience working with and helping adult individuals navigate life’s difficulties and issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and self-esteem. I help individuals to address their challenges, emotions, and stressors, while empowering them to create positive and lasting changes in life.

Asking for help can be difficult, especially with the mental health stigma that surrounds us. The reality is that everyone is subjected to the unpredictable stressors of life, and it's normal to feel the weight of that. Whether you are mandated or voluntarily seeking assistance, I will be here for you every step of the way. My approach to treatment is non-judgmental and empathetic, as everyone deserves a chance to be the best version of themselves no matter what their history entails. It is my belief that people are not defined by a single moment or period in their life. What matters is here and now, so let's make positive changes!
