Family Therapy in Holbrook, NY

I believe in the inherent value of every person who chooses to seek therapy and I’m committed to sharing their journey with them. I work with individuals, couples and families with depression/mood disorders, anxiety, life transition or adjustment difficulties, communication challenges, interpersonal relationship conflicts, trauma and PTSD and stress reduction. I have extensive experience working with suicidal ideation and self-harm, trauma and mood/behavior dysregulation. In the safety of a supportive space, I will join you or your loved one on a path of learning and healing.

Feel like there's no one there to listen or like no one will care about what you're going through? Maybe talking to your friends or family is not an option, so you keep holding on to the hurt and the anger. This could lead to feelings of sadness, lack of motivation, sleep trouble, anxiety, etc. Perhaps you think that if you see a therapist, s/he may be judgmental. As an experienced therapist, I've had the honor of working with many clients, who usually view me as non-judgmental, caring, and emphatic. Let this be your time to tell your story.

My counseling approach is unique to each individual, working towards building a strong foundation of trust and support, setting goals and identifying coping strategies to navigate everyday life experiences.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts and emotions? I specialize in helping individuals navigate through life's challenges and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Together will can work towards understanding your thoughts and behaviors, and create a plan for a healthy and fulfilling life.

Sometimes we need a helping hand. Life is challenging at times, and it becomes difficult to navigate! We all have negative thoughts and feelings we need to work through. Relationship problems, anger, family issues, and past trauma can add stress to our lives. Strategies are available to successfully cope and gain insight into how we think, address problem thoughts, and remain mindful of our strengths and our capacity for change. Helping clients address these issues ( and others) and improve well-being with a variety of evidence- based strategies, is what I do.

Are you have having trouble transitioning through life’s many changes? Maybe you're a new(ish) mom struggling to "enjoy every moment". Have you felt increasingly anxious, stressed, and irritable? Do you doubt yourself? Do you find yourself having trouble connecting with friends and family? Are issues from your past keeping you from moving forward? Maybe you just don’t feel like yourself. All of these feelings are normal. Whether we have been struggling with these things our entire lives or just the past few weeks, all of us feel lost at times.

I have been working with individuals who experience family conflicts, behavioral issues, parenting concerns, substance use, infertility issues, and more, for the past 10 years. I previously worked for Child Protective Services for 8 years and have knowledge of child abuse and neglect concerns, court matters, and custody issues. I worked with an intensive family program (HCBS Waiver) that focused on youths with severe emotional and behavioral issues for 5 years. I also have a Masters Degree in School Counseling, which has given me vast knowledge in CSE proceedings, educational laws, and academic requirements.

What does it mean to live a happy and content life? Free of emotional pain? Each of us have a unique answer to this question. I have developed an intimate understanding of why we have a hard time answering this question. A good counselor helps you identify these barriers and find ways to minimize them. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I have found success in empowering my clients to gain insight and help them develop new realizations that maximizes their potential to answer this question. I believe there are a few skills that make empowerment possible. When you develop these skills, all doors open and nothing can stop you

Sometimes painful life events can damage your ability to have healthy relationships, and a fulfilling life. You don't have to be crippled by anxiety, anger, fear, shame, and intrusive negative thoughts. These symptoms can destroy relationships and isolate you, limiting your ability to feel safe and calm in any environment. Our goal is to help you move past these events, reclaim your life, and feel happy again.

We are born with the ability to persevere through resiliency when we recognize our strengths as individuals. People seeking therapy often times express feeling "stuck" due to an array of complex emotions and experiences both past and present. We now know through the science behind neuroplasticity that our brains are ever evolving and capable of creating the type of changes to enhance our quality of life and living. Through therapy we look to capture these emotions, thoughts and behaviors to overcome the sense of stagnation, and to begin a new chapter.
