Teen Therapists in Great Neck, NY

I have been a licensed psychotherapist for children, adolescents, young adults and parents for more than thirty years. My clinical expertise includes working with clients who are depressed or anxious, feel dissatisfied in their relationships, get stuck in negative thinking, are stressed by life transitions, or are overwhelmed with academic challenges. For parents, I can provide effective strategies to improve your understanding, communication, and connection with your child. My warmth, enthusiasm and compassion allow me to easily establish and maintain a strong rapport with individuals of all ages.

I have found that the most important factor in any successful therapy is the chemistry between therapist and the people he/she works with. I use the therapeutic relationship to understand what problems an individual faces outside the office, what blocks them from accomplishing what they want for themselves. A therapeutic relationship is often one of the most intimate and private relationships one can have. I try to help people develop their own sense of agency to gain control over their lives. I believe people want to be seen and heard. I enjoy being able to provide that for them.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed? Are you experiencing family difficulties with a spouse and/or significant other, children, adolescents, parents? Are you struggling with a painful loss? Are you experiencing distress in your job or with colleagues? Is your child/ adolescent struggling with school related issues or social pressures? Is your child/ adolescent exhibiting signs of distress, anxiety, depression? Are your child's/ adolescent 's behavioral issues making parenting more difficult?

My ideal client is an adolescent who is experiencing social-emotional challenges, peer pressures, parental conflict or someone needing someone to talk to which would lead to the need to service and counsel parents who are struggling with communication issues and conflicts in the home which would lead to working with the family to regain understanding, learn how to treat and speak with each other and engage me to bring a sense of normalcy into the total relationship. I also am honored to work with women struggling with the aftermath of a broken relationship, dealing with the stresses of work and family.

As an adult or teenager your feelings and experiences are unique. You may need to have someone who can acknowledge what is important to you and to help you find ways to improve the way you feel about yourself, your loved ones, your life and your environment! Because we live in a materialistic society, people often feel isolated or alone, unsupported, conflicted or pressured to change your values. My goal is to help you to discover your needs and to help you achieve a strong sense of self and an ability to utilize the resources and relationships available to you.

With 40 years of experience treating children and adolescents, I help families anticipate and navigate the struggles of growing up. When families face divorce, trauma, moving homes or school districts, or simply want to stay on a healthy track, I work with children and their parents to confront challenges and create solutions. I promote positive social and emotional development, and believe in helping my patients build their self-confidence, social skills, and improve their peer and family relationships through open and clear communication.

I help children and adults with problems in living through brief and long-term therapy as well as psychoeducational evaluations of children, adolescents, and adults. I direct a training program in working with children and families and I have supervised, taught, presented, and published in many areas. I have seen such a variety of child, adolescent and adult problems that I am reluctant to say that I specialize. I approach people as individuals rather than as diagnostic categories. I do not assume a single treatment approach for everyone. The relationship we build is our best tool for making a difference.

We construct our emotional world based on our past experience. What we attend to in the present, and what we expect in the future, is also based on our past experience. Our initial work is to understand your past and how it shapes your perceptions of challenges. As we learn how these perceptions came into existence, we then work toward making different choices in our interactions with others. In this manner we attain understanding and acceptance of our "self" and others.
