Change is a phenomenon that we all face. We will repeat painful patterns over and over in effort to avoid change. I believe that everyone has the power to create positive change in their lives and relationships. Often times a therapeutic alliance can facilitate that change in a safe environment. If you believe you are ready to grow as an individual, couple, or family, I would be honored to assist you in your journey.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist specialized in the treatment of anxiety, OCD, and disruptive behavior disorders (e.g., AD/HD, ODD) in children, adolescents, and adults. I believe that a strong, trusting therapist-client relationship is key to treatment success. I engage with clients in a warm, genuine, and validating manner, often using humor to facilitate comfort in the therapeutic relationship. I am a proponent of evidence-based, solution-oriented practice and rely on the strong rapport that I develop with clients to achieve treatment outcomes, balancing warmth in the relationship with firmness on meeting treatment goals.

Life presents challenges to us all, but when anxiety, depression, chronic pain, chronic health conditions and stressful life circumstances get in the way of living, people may need help to implement new coping strategies. Therapy need not be an extended process. Effective approaches are short-term whenever possible. A major focus is to provide evidence-based and compassion-focused approaches.

I am a dedicated therapist with expertise in family therapy and mental health counseling. As a former student athlete, I am passionate about supporting young adults in developing positive psychology and CBT skills. My work centers on helping clients navigate relationships, uncover their identity, and leverage their strengths for improved wellbeing.

When I first meet clients, I encourage them to be fascinated by the way their mind works. An ideal component of a successful therapy is when clients become curious about themselves, which allows them to gain insight into their problems. I personally believe, based on my research and experience, that what the human mind concentrates on has an influence on what happens in one's life. By watching the patterns of our thoughts we can modify and redirect them, with the goal of making healthier and more life-affirming decisions. The human mind has evolved to focus on problems and to anticipate more of them in the future.

I'm a licensed mental health counselor from NY. I work with adults and adolescents, providing care for clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, difficulty managing life transitions and men's issues. Many gentlemen I've had the pleasure of working with have been able to get in touch with their emotions, learn to communicate their wants/needs and overcome the stigma that has prevented so many men from seeking the mental health care they deserve. My goals for clients include reducing suffering, alleviating symptoms, improve well-being, promote personal growth, resilience and to facilitate empowerment!

I am a Clinical Psychologist who has been in practice for 20 years. I provide therapy as well as psychological and neuropsychological testing. I aim to help people find measurable and meaningful results and powerful new insights. I use an integrative approach that borrows from many of the most powerful theories of change, including newer advances in my field and tried and true methods. Therapy results should bring clarity, meaning, and obvious and deep improvements. I look forward to talking with you about your unique goals for therapy and how we might work together.

I specialize in helping clients that want to feel empowered and take control of their lives. I work with all of my clients to build a life of presence and power and identify habits that may not be serving you.

Together we will come up with a plan to help you find your inner strength and resilience and we will work together to help you find the motivation to make change.

I am both a mental health counselor and a mental performance coach. My work with individuals is influenced by a cognitive behavioral and person-centered approach. I believe in the importance of the relationship between therapist/coach and client and I work to cultivate a supportive, nonjudgmental environment for each client and teach an eclectic range of techniques to help them overcome barriers in their lives and reach their full potential. I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults on topics such as anxiety, depression, self-compassion, confidence and emotional control.

Do you feel depressed, overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of which direction to take your relationships, your job, or your life? Are these feelings holding you back from living the life you truly want? I love joining with my clients to explore these barriers and working to overcome them to create peace, health and happiness. Through skill building and meaningful conversation, you can move forward. In my practice, counseling can include humor; both laughter and tears are important parts of healing and growing. While I certainly respect that serious matters are discussed in therapy, we can usually find ways to enjoy our progress.

You can develop and improve skills you need to live a more exciting and satisfying life; improve your relationships with significant others; and have a more rewarding career. Negative mood states get in the way of your best efforts, leaving you with low energy or little interest in things that were once important. You may be afraid or feel tired; as if things are turning out wrong; as if there is nothing you can do to make them right again. You can change! You can remember when things went well! You can be happy and experience good feelings again!
