Emotionally Focused Therapists in Flushing, NY

Relationships are hard. Parenting is difficult. Feeling good on a day-to-day basis is elusive. I aim in therapy to help family systems attain a more effective level of functioning by delving into the deeper emotions and fears that govern our behaviors. By learning to express our real needs, we become empowered to take control of the relationships in our lives.

I help couples and individuals who are feeling stuck, stressed out, anxious, depressed, angry, frustrated, and in pain, to cope more effectively and to live more peaceful, connected, and satisfying lives. My clients are interested in improving their relationships because they understand that relationships are key to living happy and secure lives. The people who seek out my help have tried to solve their relationship problems but have not yet found success. My approach combines empathy and powerful evidenced based methods that enable my clients to improve their relationships with their spouse, their family, themselves, or with G-d.

I work with children, individuals & couples. In my work with children I engage them in a non-pressured environment using play & talk therapy as I work with them and their parents to help understand their world, increase awareness, promote effective communication & find meaningful solutions. I do a lot of work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression or anger to learn to cope and express themselves. I selectively use family & interpersonal dynamics. I use EFT to help couples improve the intimacy and closeness that they crave in their marriage while improving communication and understanding.
