Anxiety Therapists in Manhasset, NY

Endless nights pass without rest. Panic surges through your veins as you lie awake, greeted once more by the unforgiving hour of 3 am. The anxiety and despair is relentless; you’re barely holding on. But outwardly you maintain composure, presenting an image of having everything under control. Yet, inwardly, a fierce battle wages. Your inner demons are tightening their grip, leaving you feeling despondent and utterly drained.

Sometimes your usual ways of coping with stress and difficult situations stop working. This can leave you feeling ill-equipped to manage aspects of your life. As a result, you may be feeling sad, worried, scared, angry, and/or overwhelmed. I strive to help people better understand the nature of their problems and develop more effective ways to cope with them. I believe greater self-awareness, in combination with behavior changes, can lead to a richer and more satisfying life.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I want to help you achieve your goals in obtaining an improved quality of life by working together to identify coping strategies that best suit you. I enjoy teaching you skills including mindfulness training, interpersonal effectiveness skills, and distress tolerance skills so that you can implement them to decrease the intensity, severity, and frequency of your psychiatric symptoms.

I help children, adolescents, adults and families with a wide range of issues, including anxiety and depression, school and behavioral challenges, life transitions and developmental delays, and family and relationship concerns. My work is informed by cognitive behavioral therapy, dynamic psychotherapy, family systems, and mind-body approaches.

Psychotherapy is a tool to help individuals further develop their emotional lives. I believe that by verbalizing thoughts, feelings, and experiences in an open, nonjudgmental environment individuals can gain insight and emotional growth often leading to a reduction in anxiety, sadness and relationship discord

Dr. Grimaldi is a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience implementing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for adults with anxiety, OCD, and PTSD. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where individuals can share their experiences and begin taking steps towards living a fuller, meaningful, and values driven life, no longer hindered by anxious thoughts or unhelpful behaviors.

I incorporate a "team" approach in which patient and therapist actively engage in treatment. A professional, warm, and genuine type atmosphere is provided with the goal of maintaining a healthy lifestyle with enhanced coping skills. A cognitive behavioral approach is emphasized, which is problem-focused and direct. Problematic belief systems and behaviors, which are negatively impacting emotional well-being, are targeted.

I am a clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety. If you are ready, allow me to help you to overcome this very severe, but very treatable problem.

I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with some aspect of daily living - relationships, family, job; or who face a crisis such as illness or loss. I work to help clients understand the emotions, beliefs, and behaviors that may contribute to their difficulties. Strategies that have been adaptive or protective at an earlier time may no longer be needed and may interfere with life satisfaction. I have a flexible approach designed to strengthen coping skills and to foster resilience. My work involves both careful listening and active collaboration, with a focus on each person's unique history.

Seeking help is not always easy, but I have found that most patients end up feeling relieved and more optimistic once they have taken that first step. As a therapist, I try my best to make you feel comfortable and understood. I work in a supportive, interactive, and collaborative manner and it is my goal to help you develop tools, right from the start, to help you manage your situation as we continue to get to know one another. I have over 15-years experience working with adults, adolescents and young families with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, difficult transitions, stress, and parenting challenges.

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.

All of us have the "tools" within us to help ourselves. As a psychotherapist, I will help you find those inner "tools" and we will use them to guide you through emotional difficulties, relationship issues and many of the other challenges we face in life.
