Therapists in Hauppauge, NY

Life is complicated. Sometimes, in our ever-changing world, we may find that we would benefit from support in navigating and improving upon various dimensions of ourselves and our day-to-day life that can impact our functioning. I offer professional support in a warm, safe environment to assist you in garnering insight into your feelings, exploring your strengths, working towards goals, and finding needed answers.

Perhaps the most important aspect of our work together will be your sense of comfort and support. I strongly believe in maintaining a compassionate and supportive environment both physically and emotionally where you can feel safe, heard and understood. My goal is facilitate a judgement free and empathic space where you feel free to explore your thoughts, emotions and experiences. Your empowerment to gain insight, discover your strengths and develop effective coping strategies will lead to lasting and productive change. You can have the life you want...it is all within your reach.

I've always thought that life is extraordinarily beautiful, but also exceedingly difficult and even brutal at times. As a therapist, my goal is to make the therapeutic process comfortable, meaningful, and productive. I've worked with all walks of life, but I think the kinds of people who might benefit the most from my services are those that are looking to gain insight and use that insight to create lasting change. My approach is simple, 50% bottom up - How did we get here? & 50% top down - What can we do about it? Over time, we'll work to put the pieces together, establish a plan of action, and create hope for a better tomorrow.

Life is often stressful, now so more than ever. The decision to begin therapy is a positive step, but finding the right therapist can be difficult. While we all seek to uncover and understand the sources of our problems, we also need concrete ideas for how to improve our lives. At various times in life we experience different issues, including anxiety, depression, damaged relationships, or a loss of direction. I utilize a flexible, integrative and interactive approach that is tailored to the client’s individual needs, goals, and expectations, and focuses on solutions.

Are you feeling that life is too difficult or stressful to face alone? My passion is helping you to feel supported, connected and understood. I will help you find your strength so that you have the confidence to overcome obstacles and reach your potential. Together, we can develop goals to help you feel happier, healthier and more fulfilled in your life.

There isn’t any relationship in a person’s life that can compare to the kind of relationship shared between a client and their therapist, and that is what makes this connection so invaluable. A lot of us are fortunate enough to have people in our lives that we can both confide in and seek advice from, but it is quite normal in this day and age to need more support than our friends and family can provide. Coincidentally, this extra support can come from a person that initially begins as a stranger.

Seeking counseling is an important step toward making your wellbeing a priority and finding relief from the pain and unhappiness you might be feeling.

I am a warm, nonjudgmental psychotherapist and have been working with adults, and families for the past 12 years.

I help clients gain clarity into their struggles and help them to unlock their "best self" potential, allowing them to feel more empowered with a renewed sense of purpose.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.

The need to prioritize ourselves and our mental health has never been more important. As someone who has battled with generalized anxiety, OCD, and panic disorder since childhood, I have intimate knowledge of the turmoil and suffering associated with mental health issues and how it can affect every aspect of our life. I’m also aware that our mental health is a journey of growth, which involves a daily commitment to show up for ourselves and do the work in order to craft a healthier mindset. The awareness we might want to speak to someone is the first step in making a change in our lives in order to better ourselves and our health.

Life can be difficult. There’s no denying this. And, at times, life can seem even more difficult. Have you been feeling sad, stressed, worried, confused, frustrated, angry, or at a bit of a loss? Perhaps you’ve experienced, or are facing, a transition in life (e.g., a break-up, divorce, loss of a loved one, medical challenge, retirement, engagement, marriage, etc.) that is leaving you feeling any number of ways. Or maybe you're feeling a certain way and don't know why. If so, you're likely looking to find some peace, clarity, understanding, and support so you can live a happier, healthier, and more authentic life.
