Lesbian Therapists in Bohemia, NY

Congratulations! You took the first step towards happiness and self-improvement! Life can throw us curveballs leaving us to deal with difficult decisions. Inevitably, sometimes we get stuck resulting in unhappiness or feeling unfulfilled. Unexpected changes, toxic relationships, unhealthy attitudes, maladaptive coping habits, or just a general desire to lead a more productive life without knowing how to get there can also cause dismay. Managing these problems and getting back to enjoying life is an attainable goal and I'm happy to help by providing keen insight and the concrete tools needed to make positive and lasting change.

Are you someone who is coming to terms with your identity? A person struggling with anxiety, trauma or coming out? Someone looking for an inclusive safe space where you can finally be honest and begin healing? If you are looking for a Queer Latina to provide you with support and healing from those challenges in life, you found her. I am passionate about my work with BIPOC individuals, LGBTQIA+ community members and those in non-monogamous relationships.

Looking for a therapist can be daunting. It can be difficult to reach out for support and it can be even more challenging to put our trust into someone who we don't know yet. I will provide you with a safe, warm, and supportive space so that you can feel comfortable to take the first steps in therapy. I will assist you in developing a plan for treatment that is tailored to your individual needs and I will make the commitment to accompany you throughout your journey.

Isn't it frustrating to always feel like you're on edge, scattered, and forever behind on your seemingly never ending to-do list? You want to feel happy, to enjoy the little things again, to feel in control of your life- but you just cannot seem to get there. Anxiety and depression can keep us feeling stuck, unmotivated and hopeless. It can begin to erode your relationships, career prospects and even your sense of self. I specialize in helping my clients go from feeling likea victim of circumstance with no control- to seeing their inner strength, resilience and feeling confident in their abilities.

Sometimes painful life events can damage your ability to have healthy relationships, and a fulfilling life. You don't have to be crippled by anxiety, anger, fear, shame, and intrusive negative thoughts. These symptoms can destroy relationships and isolate you, limiting your ability to feel safe and calm in any environment. Our goal is to help you move past these events, reclaim your life, and feel happy again.

Are you going through a tough time? Are you so full of anxiety that you find it challenging to navigate through the day? Parents, do you have a child that is struggling to focus at school or control their emotions? Are you hesitant to talk to somebody for fear of being judged? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Starting a journey in therapy can be scary, however it might just be the best decision of your life. Through experience, I've come to learn that there is nothing more comforting than hearing the words “I understand, I’ve been there or I can relate.”

While everyone’s journey through life is unique, we ultimately all want the same thing…We ALL want to be happy. Unfortunately, happiness doesn't always come easily. Our journey is full of challenges that we have to overcome in order to get back to being happy. We experience sadness and loss. We fall completely in love only to suffer heart break. Some of us go through traumatic events such as combat or a devastating accident. These situations and many more cause us to develop feelings of fear, sadness and frustration which we do our best to manage, but typically do so in an unhealthy and maladapted way.

My philosophy is simple in regards to problem solving, effective communication, improving relationships, working towards reaching a personal maximum potential and in healing from trauma. It’s to identify thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs. I believe that as soon as a person is able to communicate these four insight oriented drives, life immediately begins to improve and problems get solved. While this may sound easy, for many people it takes time to gain insight, self-evaluate, uncover and accept why we are the way we are (ie: biology and life experiences), decide on and follow through on changes to make in their life.

I see you. I hear you. I understand the pain you're going through. You've been through emotional, physical or sexual abuse at the hands of someone who was supposed to love and protect you. It's not your fault, and I am here to help you overcome the pain and regain control of your life.  Mood swings, intense anxiety, feeling inadequate as a parent, codependency and struggling with your identity are all completely understandable responses. My goal is to help you learn to trust your judgment, embrace your flaws, and rediscover your worth.  You deserve love, happiness, and a bright future. I am here to help you achieve those goals.

I am extremely passionate about working with teens and young adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, difficult life change. I work with clients to help guide them in figuring out their personal life goals and how to reach them, while navigating all of life’s challenges thrown at them, that may seem like roadblocks.

Whether you are struggling with an addiction, depression or anxiety, relationship issues or all of the above, you have come to the right place. I am a solution oriented, down to earth therapist who thoroughly enjoys aiding and supporting individuals on their journey to help themselves. I would be honored to accompany you on your journey. More than anything I believe that people have the capacity within themselves to change their own lives and make themselves happier. I am someone to provide support and guidance during this time.

There are times in life where you may feel unequipped to deal with life's challenges, where you find old solutions and coping strategies do not solve the problem anymore, and may be in need of a different perspective. Therapy can be a wonderful resource for clients to get to know themselves better, adapt healthier coping skills and reach their goals and full potential to live a more fulfilling life. My goal as a counselor is to provide a safe and welcoming atmosphere for clients to feel secure and supported on their journey towards self-fulfillment.

After more than a decade of working with children and adolescents as a teachers assistant in nursery schools' and as a camp counselor and group leader, I obtained my Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Long Island University.
