Oppositional Defiance (ODD) Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
If you are seeking therapy at this point in your life, you may be feeling that your usual way of coping isn't working anymore. This may lead to you feeling alienated and lonely, frustrated and angry, hopeless, confused, striving for perfection, or otherwise stuck. It may simply be that your usual way of being is made up of out-of-date strategies - what was once adaptive is now causing you stress and unnecessary suffering. Let me help you learn how to start relaxing the struggle. Our work together will provide an opportunity for self-knowledge, tolerance for difficult emotions, and acceptance of your own humanity.

The decision to enter into therapy can be overwhelming but finding a connection to the right therapist can change your life. I believe that the foundation of the therapeutic process is built on rapport. I understand that being vulnerable and sharing areas of your life can be difficult, and I am here to make that easier for you by collaborating with you to reach your desired goals. My style has been described as the antithesis of a note scratching, cliché, therapist.

I am an LMSW providing both individual and family therapy. I work primarily with preschool-aged and school aged children, teens, and families. I utilize play and art in my sessions, but I also help my clients to develop and practice new skills where appropriate. I enjoy helping families to strengthen relationships, and I practice from an attachment perspective. Play is a child's natural way of communicating, which makes it a perfect fit for many children in therapy! I often work with older children, teens, and adults as well, and tailor my therapeutic approach to the needs of each person and family I work with.

Everyone goes through periods in their lives when they feel stuck with work and/or love. They can feel overwhelmed about the choices they have to make or feel forsaken by the perceived lack of opportunities. During these stressful times, they often lose their center, their sense of being grounded, and forget about the importance of personal care.

Are you experiencing problems that seem to be getting in your way of living a fulfilling life? Do you feel ignored, unaccepted or maybe your life just feels chaotic? We all may have felt that way some time or another. Most of the time we move on and continue on with our life. However sometimes we feel stuck, and despite being told (or telling ourselves) "just get over it” we can’t! There is something that holds us back and we cannot make sense of what is happening to us.

Seeking help to find peace with what may be causing mental or emotional anguish is not always easy, especially for those unfamiliar with the practice of therapy. With the taboo often attached to mental health, it can seem like a daunting task when managing fears of being labeled, misunderstood, judged or dismissed when discussing your struggles and needs with someone new. It takes true strength to find helpful strategies on your own, while also recognizing the need for more advanced skills and resources to further your healing and growth.
