Native American Therapists in Lido Beach, NY

I was born and raised in Queens New York. I currently reside in Brooklyn. I’m not really a fan of the term African American because my lineage is a bit more complex than that. So I will say I’m an Afro-Native American and extremely proud of it. I attended Queens Borough Community College where I earned an Associates Degree in Science with a concentration in Preforming Arts to pursue a career as a Music Therapist. I then attended Long Island University Brooklyn and earned a Bachelors Degree In Psychology with a Minor In Sociology and Anthropology. I received my Masters in Mental Health Counseling at Alfred University.

I work with adults (over age 21) who are looking to overcome fears and struggles by helping them learn effective ways to cope and set and maintain boundaries. My goal is to guide individuals on the road to healing, empowerment, and success.

My main goal for my clients is to assist them in navigating their difficult emotions and helping them process their feelings.

Mental Health Counseling can help you to regain a sense of mental peace and calm, helping you to get your life back to normal.

Pornography addiction can have a significant impact on your life and relationships but there is hope for recovery. I’m not just a mental health professional, I’ve been “you” for many years. I understand firsthand the personal and relational struggles that come with uncontrollable pornography use. The endless stream of attractive women a few clicks away on Pornhub, Onlyfan or Social Media used to reduce stress and boredom is hard to stop even when it’s destroying your life and relationships

Trust is the foundation of any successful relationship. Without it, communication breaks down and conflict rears its head. Through Hal’s decades of experience, He has cultivated strategies and techniques to help couples rebuild trust and strengthen their bond. Hal has mentored couples counselors for thirty years and has himself been a couples counselor since 1978. One of His key teachings is the importance of vulnerability in a relationship. Hal encourages couples to open up and share their deepest fears and insecurities with each other. This kind of vulnerability creates a safe space where both partners feel heard and supported.

Things don't have to be the way they are now.
