In Person Therapists in Copake, NY

I work with neurodivergent and non-conforming clients who are often gender expansive and have not had the opportunity to orient to their own sense of self. Heightened sensory sensitivity impacts the development of sense of self in the context of likely not having been attuned with, and rather having adapted to the environment one was developing within. Those who have the natural capacity to sense so much, know a lot without knowing how. And without being self-directed, these individuals can unknowingly adapt to the demands of their environments as well as their internal sensory demands and miss out on living their authentic life.

Do you want a space where you can be present and develop in the "here and now"? Do you want to bring your experience of self to clear awareness with support for healing and discovery of new ways to integrate your thinking, feeling and willing? If so, I am available to explore with you how to work with the issues that are important to you.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I take a developmental standpoint and work with my patients around where they have become stuck in their lives. My treatments are highly individualized based on what my patients wish to work on and what we negotiate together as treatment goals. I have experience working with a diverse range of people confronting issues such as major life transitions, experiences of adversity and trauma, and cultural adjustment.

We all face challenge in our lives; the way we manage them can make all the difference. I will work to build a caring relationship and a strong therapeutic alliance so you can feel safe to express yourself, share your feelings, your hopes, your dreams, your pain.

Our therapy sessions will be geared toward finding hopeful, strength based paths toward improving your days. I pay careful attention to personal and family history and to current patterns and behaviors in order to help you see new possibilities for yourself.

I am a psychoanalytic psychologist working remotely with folks across NYS and in person in Hudson, NY. I think of therapy as a way to help people get more used to what living feels like. For some who come in for therapy, living has felt relatively smooth, and they’re drawn to session to get help with specific struggles that have come up suddenly. For others, living has felt too hard for quite some time. In our sessions, we learn how to sense our way through these experiences together. We’ll explore how it feels to invite a witness in to your experience and we’ll deepen your ability to care for yourself as you move through life.

Are you feeling stuck, caught in a difficulty in which you can't seem to resolve? Does the same situation repeat over and over in different forms? Life is hard and sometimes we need to help of another person, a nonjudgmental listener, to move forward. Whatever problems you face, relationship difficulties, struggles to balance career and personal life, anxiety, grief or health issues, a therapist can serve as your guide. Through the therapeutic process you may also explore your personal history as it relates to current difficulties and, in the process, discover new ways of coping.

Do you repeat the same negative and dysfunctional patterns in your life and relationships? Do you cope with your stress in destructive ways, leaving you in constant dis-ease and discomfort mentally and emotionally? What if your symptoms and ailments were trying to tell you something about your evolution and growth? You are in the right place if you seek a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your life purpose. I utilize cutting-edge therapies like Internal Family Systems, Systemic Constellations, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.

Regardless of the individuals and families particular difficulties, two things have struck me time after time in my work with them. First, is the rightness of their 'symptoms.' If I listen close enough and with enough openness to learn the language of their 'symptoms,' that which, at the onset, seems to have an its own private mind boggling logic, makes a great deal of sense. Second, was the level of determination and creativity people attempt to resolve said difficulties ... a determination and creativeness I attempt to match and respect during my time in their lives.
