Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in 11021

Maybe you've decided to step out of your comfort zone and have begun to look for a professional therapist. I want to commend you for taking that leap into the unknown, I know it's not easy. You may feel that you want to talk to someone other than a family member or friend. Someone impartial and skilled that could help you sort out your feelings or meet new goals. When you come meet with me we will work together to prioritize what is important to you. There will be no labels given to you in my office. Just genuine warmth and compassion. Call today and take the first step in healing.

Making the choice to go to therapy is not the easiest one you will ever make, but it is among the most powerful. Whether you are struggling to cope with recent changes in your life or have made the choice to address long-standing issues in a new way, finding someone who is able to provide an unbiased, thoughtful perspective can improve your life profoundly. All of us encounter obstacles and face difficulty. In response to that difficulty, we may develop coping strategies that no longer serve us.

As a psychotherapist and healer for many years it has been my privilege to offer and provide help and comfort to people in distress. Experience has taught me that we all struggle to recover from the pains of the past, deal with the challenges of the present and the insecurities of the future, in our efforts to live the best lives that we can. This often seems very difficult if not impossible to accomplish alone. A strong and nurturing therapeutic relationship is a powerful and stable foundation for dealing with these challenges to our well-being, especially in these very troubling and uncertain times.

Have you tried traditional therapy and are now looking for a new "out of the box" way of addressing your life struggles, relational difficulties of spiritual questions ? Are you looking to take a deep dive into your subconscious mind and/or body's intelligence to get to the root causes and create the life changes that you desire? I am an integrative psychotherapist who incorporates, somatic therapy, hypnotherapy, mindfulness and in some cases ketamine assisted psychotherapy. I support and empower my clients in their healing, transformation, and spiritual growth, while creating a life of joy, love and personal fulfillment.

Change is always possible. I work from a strengths-based perspective, and I believe that the work of psychotherapy is to help people access untapped resources toward health and vitality. Someone suffering from depression is just that-a person with depression, not a "depressed person"--depression needn't define you. When you walk into my office, we will explore the roadblocks in your life that keep you from moving forward, and make a plan for getting past them.

Since you have come to this place I will assume that you are struggling with something very difficult for you and that you are searching for effective ways to ease or finally end the pain. Sometimes your suffering can be traced to emotional, physical or spiritual injury, trauma or loss that you experienced many years ago, or it may have been very recent. At this moment only you know how you are suffering, what it is doing to you and your loved ones and the price that you are paying. Dealing with it alone can be very challenging, frustrating and frightening. This does not have to continue. Support is available.

I am a clinical therapist and professor who practices in New York and Massachusetts. Many times, challenges, pain, loss, and even suffering hold just as much a place in our lives as happiness, joy, peace and triumph.

My approach is integrative, taking into consideration all the systems within you, including race, culture and environment. I aim to hold a warm and supportive space wherein empowerment, balance and growth can be achieved.

I've always been a "people person" but started work in the field of technology.

Sessions are specific to each client's needs and can include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, relaxation techniques and other approaches.

Life is full of hardships. Sometimes we get overwhelmed and feel like there's no hope for tomorrow. As your therapist, I'm here to help you overcome your struggles and find your footing again.

For over 25 years, I have provided forensic consultation to New York State and Federal courts on criminal, family, and civil matters. Also, I see patients on a regular basis for neuropsychological testing to evaluate the effects of brain trauma, learning disabilities, and ADD on everyday living.

Life can be overwhelming on any given day, but when mental health concerns are added to the mix, it can seem impossible to overcome even small hiccups. This is normal, but it is not something that you should have to deal with alone. My goal as a therapist is to address whatever problems you are experiencing at any given moment. I provide structured sessions using evidence-based approaches to help you or your family tackle concerns related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral issues, trauma, grief, relationship stressors, infertility and adoption issues, sport performance, and life adjustments.

I view therapy as a collaborative journey. While creating a safe and nonjudgmental therapeutic space, I strive to help my clients on their path toward personal growth, well-being, and connection. I have a diverse training background that has equipped me with a deep understanding of the complexities of the human experience, allowing me to customize therapeutic interventions for each client. I provide evidence-based treatment for a variety of problems, including substance use, anxiety, depression, dysfunctional relationship patterns, anger/aggression, trauma/PTSD, sexual behavioral problems, and sleep difficulties, such as insomnia.

Life's journey of fluctuations with unexpected & painful circumstances can leave us experiencing prolonged sadness, pervasive anxiety, and overwhelming stress. My passion as a therapist is to provide an authentic and empathic space for you to process and navigate your emotions, while enhancing your strengths & self-worth. I take a holistic approach to therapy. With more than 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist, I work with those who struggle with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, work-related stressors, and marital/couple's issues. I am also dedicated to working with clients who have experienced trauma and symptoms of PTSD.

I am passionate about creating a warm, safe, and inclusive atmosphere for all persons. I empower individuals to feel seen and freely express themselves throughout our work together. In my clinical work, I collaborate with clients to identify their personal goals and strengths, deepen insight, and navigate various life experiences. With all clients, I aim to cultivate acceptance and self-compassion. My hope is for all clients, including those who have endured trauma, to feel safe in their body and supported in their experience. I am patient, humble, and continuously inspired by the opportunity to sit with others on their journey.

Finding the right therapist can be a difficult task. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to share your thoughts and feelings.

I have extensive experience in treating adults, adolescents, and children in a variety of settings.

As a licensed mental health counselor, my approach is warm, friendly, and client-centered. I believe that the relationship between the client and the therapist is the most important part of the therapeutic journey. I pride myself on being able to get a good sense of my clients and who they are individually in order to develop a strong therapeutic alliance. I am empathic and validating, but I am also skilled in challenging unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that may be getting in the way of living one's best life.
