Therapists in New York, NY

Do you feel lonely, depressed, or rejected? Do you feel bad about yourself, have anxiety, or experience trauma? I work with men, women, couples, and adolescents. I'm a trained psychoanalyst who also practices mindfulness and meditation. Therapy is a process of self discovery and change. It will assist you in understanding your patterns and teach you how to put words to your lived experiences. It will help you feel better about yourself and allow you to interact with the world around you more effectively. I can help you to reduce the intense feelings that get in the way of accessing your fullest potential.

I am a licensed therapist and work in a collaborative effort with each person to help foster insight, deeper understanding, and relief from suffering. I have experience helping people alleviate depression and anxiety, improve relationships, resolve career related conflicts, and increase self awareness. I have found that with the support of a therapist whom they can trust, people often have the courage to make changes in their lives to feel more fulfilled.

At NEST, we believe every child can learn. We provide comprehensive assessments and treatment services to children and their families. We are experienced in working with children from infancy to late adolescence with a range of diagnosis. Our assessments identify your child's strengths and weaknesses and provide targeted recommendations to facilitate optimal learning. Our goal is to help your child and you!

I work well with clients seeking help with stress management, relationship issues, goal attainment, or issues related to emotion and self-esteem. My ideal clients are professionals who are seeking results. In addition to my work with clients, I also provide practice building tools for clinicians. Although I am currently on sabbatical from psychotherapy clients, I do oversee my associates, Amanda Pelcher, LMFT and Grayson Stadler, LCSW. You can have a free consultation with my office to learn more. Send us an email or give us a call so we may assist you further!

Who you are--how you think, feel and interact--has been shaped by many relationships over time. So it makes sense that a new relationship--with a therapist attuned to subtle but essential aspects of your experience--can facilitate discovery and change. I work deeply and sensitively with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, eating disorders, and relationship difficulties. My aim is not only to help alleviate symptoms but also to help you gain access to a fuller range of emotions, greater freedom of choice, and a more vital sense of self.

Welcome! My name is Constance J. Rose and I am a Clinical Psychologist. I earned my Ph.D. from Palo Alto University in Northern California and my Master’s degree from Teachers College, Columbia University in New York City. With background training in outpatient, inpatient, and community mental health settings, I proudly served culturally diverse individuals, couples, and families who experienced serious mental illness, race-based stress, intergenerational trauma, domestic/intimate partner violence, and acculturation challenges.

It's been a trying couple of years to say the least. Perhaps you're feeling burned out, uncertain about your next steps or you just need a place to bring your anxiety and frustrations about life. I believe that everyone has innate resilience and the ability to find solutions, no matter how bad things seem. Often it's when you finally ask for help that the greatest opportunity for growth and change occurs. I can help you move through those difficult places, whether it feels like depression, anxiety or feeling stuck. If you improve one area of your life, the rest will follow.

Psychotherapy is a process that facilitates change, growth and renewal. There are many concerns that may bring us to therapy: a difficult relationship, a general feeling of dissatisfaction, a life transition, a traumatic experience, gender/sexual orientation issues, immigration, feelings of depression, anxiety or loss. All of these circumstances are worthy of attention.

I am committed to being your strongest advocate. I believe in your unlimited capacity to grow and change, and my passion is to help you improve your quality of life. Together, we will find solutions and create long-term changes. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are seeking support for depression, anxiety, college adjustment, life transitions, sexuality/identity, stress management, relationship difficulties, and trauma.

I am a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst with many years of experience treating adults, adolescents and children. While I utilize a wide range of current treatment techniques, my practice is based on a foundation of contemporary psychoanalytic approaches. I have found a psychodynamic perspective---the view that our emotional lives represent a continually evolving process that determines our lived experience in meaningful and purposive ways---to be essential for understanding a whole person and their current life situation.

With a caring and non judgmental approach, I work with clients to help them achieve the deep satisfaction and joy missing from their lives. Many circumstances have brought you to the point where anxiety, depression, low self esteem or frustration have made it difficult for you to live your best life. Together we embark on a journey which helps you to better understand yourself and then implement changes so that you are in charge again

Putting thoughts and emotions into words can have surprising and powerful results. There is a freedom in saying out loud what we have withheld or only said or ourselves. We begin to see our world from new perspectives, develop new ways of being in the world, and begin to make new choices. The purpose of a therapist is to be the person in your life undergoing this process with you, as a companion and guide. This is how I understand my work.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in evidence-based treatments, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness based interventions. I specialize in the treatment of adults, adolescents, and their families struggling with a wide range of challenges including anxiety, depression, major life transitions, chronic pain, eating disorders, disorders of emotion regulation, and general dissatisfaction with life. I will work closely and collaboratively with you to develop an individualized treatment plan to teach coping strategies for the present and help you to meet your personal goals for the future.

So often, we find ourselves at a crossroads in life. We are either transitioning into a new phase or are completely unhappy with where we are at. It is during these times of stress, anxiety and confusion that we have the opportunity to rise, recreate and redefine who we are and what we want our lives to look like. Redirecting your energy and reducing the amount of related stress will help you build healthy relationships, increase your confidence and improve your self-esteem.

I have expertise in treating anxiety, mood and OCD disorders (trichotillomania, BDD, skin picking). I use cognitive behavioral methods that have been shown to be effective in specific problem areas and tailor them to particular patients. My treatment philosophy is one that combines humanistic values and CBT interventions.

When my clients first come to me, their lives feel chaotic and out of control. No matter what they do, they can’t seem to break free from recurrent depression, major ups and downs in their mood, and significant difficulties in their relationships. All they want is to feel more peace within themselves and in the relationships that matter to them the most. They don’t want to feel so ruled by their intense emotions or out-of-control-feeling relationship with food. They want to be able to live life on their terms, and yet, this keeps on eluding them, even though they might be really accomplished in other areas of their life, like work.

Do you find yourself getting stuck in the same relationship patterns over and over again? Do you find yourself doing everything in your power to discontinue previous relational patterns and behaviors? Are you struggling with self-doubt, low-self-esteem, and painful self-criticism that seems to be holding you back? My approach to therapy looks at these patterns and behaviors through the lens of parts work. This allows us to separate the self (you), from the parts that struggle with self-doubt, and from the parts that persist in repeating unhealthy relationships and behavioral patterns.

Clients deserve to receive the best possible treatment in the shortest amount of time. I am committed to providing research-tested treatments that we know are effective at improving your quality of life and relationships. Together, we'll figure out your goals and work very actively to accomplish them. If you commit to practicing the new skills you learn in therapy, I'll commit to being your guide, coach, and biggest supporter. I practice CBT and DBT, two highly effective therapy models. I look forward to showing you how they can help you reach your goals.
