Therapists in Bronx, NY

After over 30 years as a therapist and clinical supervisor in hospitals, clinics, and private practice, it is clearer to me than ever that successful therapy is all about the relationship. Going into therapy is a courageous decision, often fraught with anxiety about what to expect. I do not expect my clients to share difficult thoughts and feelings until and unless they feel safe, understood and not judged, allowing for the essential therapeutic element: trust. My clients know that I will never betray their trust in our alliance. It has always been my professional mantra, and it always will be.

Life does present numerous obstacles and hurdles that we have to navigate, and we need someone to walk with us through those challenging times. I believe that relationships will not always be smooth sailing and that there will be periods of rough seas that couples will have to navigate as well. I offer to help you process those challenging times. I am also passionate about working with couples who are experiencing challenges in their relationship and need help to restore the love and happiness they once shared. if you are considering taking your relationship to the next level then ask about my PREPARE-ENRICH assessment sessions.

Hi! I’m Dan - a Star Wars nerd, formerly harsh self-critic and a PhD psychologist with 30+ years of clinical experience. I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindful Self-Compassion Therapy. If you’re struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship problems, I’m here to help. I offer Individual and Couples Therapy. In Individual Therapy, I’ll help you stop judging yourself so harshly, let go of guilt, shame and blame, and learn to treat yourself with the same kindness you offer others. You'll learn to believe in yourself and take action, even when you’re feeling anxious.

Therapy is not just a space to work out problems, it is also a haven as one celebrates achievements and integrates change. It is your space to be authentically you with a journey partner in a relationship that supports you. My perspective is unique and informed by a dynamic background that includes lessons from a great teacher, life, as well as from serving in various roles in employment fields. I have experience working with individuals and groups in a manner that respects differences, honors experiences, and welcomes exploration.

I believe the healing process can begin by developing a compassionate and collaborative working relationship. Whether relational issues, mental health concerns, or addiction challenges have become overwhelming, working together can bring positive results.

The most therapeutic element in psychotherapy is the relationship between us. You invite me into your interior self which is a special, even sacred, place hiring me as a guide during this phase of your life's journey. Ultimately, our goal is to do things better by initiating new ways of being or putting aside some of the old. Therapy is not escape; it is not blame. It is about better facing the challenges of life, helping ourselves find our way through where we now are, and sometimes it's also about finding our way back to ourselves.

We are living in challenging times. The degree of uncertainty we face is enough to cause thoughts and feelings that interfere with our daily functioning. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic issues of depression, anxiety, domestic violence, substance abuse, and suicide were already problems many people struggled with. For many, COVID has caused or intensified these conditions and created a need for additional resources. Resources that lead them to thrive and enjoy time with family and friends.

I have provided treatment for clients with Anger Management, Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Losses, Relationship issues, Self-Esteem, Chronic Illness, Trauma and Abuse. I have experience in working with children, adolescents, adults, partners and families.

As a therapist I have experience helping people with a wide range of concerns, including depression and anxiety, relationship or work difficulties, and experiencing emotions that are overwhelming. People often contact me when they have started to realize that their usual solutions to life’s challenges have ceased to work. I offer a space where you can learn more about who you are, including the parts of yourself that you want to change. We’ll work together to address what’s getting in the way of having a life that is more authentic and fulfilling.

Therapy, also called psychotherapy or counseling, is the process of meeting with a therapist to resolve problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings, relationship issues, and/or somatic responses (sensations in the body). Beginning therapy can be a big step toward being the healthiest version of yourself and living the best life possible—no matter what challenges you may be facing. Through therapy, you can change self-destructive behaviors and habits, resolve painful feelings, improve your relationships, and more

We understand how daunting and even intimidating seeking help can be. Both culture and society have conditioned us to look at therapy through a negative lense, as something that is punitive, unnecessary, and in some cases as a sign of weakness. On the contrary , participating in therapy can be a liberating experience. It is a place where you can begin your process of obtaining closure to unresolved conflicts, that every so often seem to come to the surface and interfere with your daily life. We are here to genuinely assist you in making sense of it all. No Judgement, and our services are confidential.

My approach to therapy is to work with clients to identify their patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that prevent them from reaching their goals. I will help you think about thinking, and evaluate and embrace your emotional life. To be human is to be doing the best we can with the tools we have; my therapeutic approach centers on improving the tools you know how to use, and teaching you a new set of tools to better your life. I have experience working with clients from all walks of life with all kinds of struggles, ranging from depression and anxiety to grief and relationship issues.

With over 15 years’ experience as a bilingual Psychotherapist working with very diverse populations from adults to adolescents who experience depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD I learned that not everyone feels comfortable going to speak to a therapist in a traditional setting like an office. This is why I offer “Walk Talk Therapy” and mobile therapy. I want to eliminate as many barriers as possible for you to get the help you need. Just as we are all encouraged to exercise for our physical health, I believe everyone should connect with a professional therapist to strengthen one’s emotional health.
