Therapists in Greenwich Village, New York, NY

I provide empathy, insight, and a seasoned approach in treating addiction, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, and personality challenges. I assist individuals seeking freedom from out-of-control behaviors including substance abuse, sexual compulsivity, and other habituated difficulties. I'm credentialed to treat partners and couples affected by sexual betrayal as well as those experiencing negative relationship dynamics in general. My scope of practice also includes treating LGBTQ issues. Being a guide through adversity and loss, be it sudden or cumulative, is a primary objective in my collaborative approach with all my clients.

Through careful listening and an empathic, honest approach I can help you feel better about yourself and your life. You may feel stuck in a job or relationship. You may want more from life but not know how to get it. You may be struggling with with the difficulties of parenthood or marriage. I can help with artistic, creative, or intellectual struggles, body issues, sexual problems, substance issues, imbalances of life and work, impulse control, past trauma, or even just a general lack of inspiration or motivation in life.

When you come to therapy, it's important to remember that you are already trying to cope in the best way you can. But you don't have to wait until things feel unbearable before you ask for help. I have been a psychotherapist for over 25 years, & have experience working with Online Gaming, Adolescents, Parenting Conflicts, Cross-cultural Therapy, Learning Disabilities, Depression, GLBT Issues, Bereavement, Anxiety & Trauma. A video is worth a thousand words, so if you go to my website you'll find two that talk about my specialty, who I am and how I work. I work with patients online currently, & make it easy for you to get started.

Life is all about loving and being loved. The latest discoveries of neuroscience seem to indicate we are wired for love and cooperation. So often difficulties in loving and being loved discourage us from learning from our experiences and confronting out fears. Good psychotherapy can assist in the development of the innate capacity we all have for love and cooperation. Everything one needs is already available within each one of us. Being reminded of this by means of respectful and thorough listening is an important component of the therapeutic process. So much is possible in our lives. We are remarkably resilient creatures.

Sometimes in life, we face various problems or setbacks that impede our identity, self-esteem, relationships, and/or aspirations. Through therapy, we can safely and quickly develop ways to achieve your life goals and improve life satisfaction. I work dynamically and collaboratively to explore your inner thoughts and feelings to bring positive changes and meaning to your present life. In conjunction, I utilize specific ways to help you build your inner resources/skills to cope with daily life stressors, relationship problems, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other concerns.

I try to help patients discover those aspects of themselves, their partner, or relationship, enabling them to address their issue, moving to the next phase more satisfyingly. I do not bring any prior ideas or thoughts about the best outcome, but let my patient(s) guide the treatment. Working with someone means being available to the sort of dialogue that will be helpful. Some want to discuss a specific issue; with others, a larger pattern is revealed through our interactions. My adapting to the relationship, with the client not having to fit my style, is a particular strength of mine.

The successful outcome of the work done in therapy is so very much a result of the unique relationship between patient and therapist. To that end my practice is one in which I am active, supportive and non-judgemental.Emotional injuries from the past live in the present, effecting how we relate and react to people and events throughout life. Psychotherapy has the potential to heal past wounds and impart the insights that can result in a healthier, more emotionally prosperous present. Depression, anxiety and relationship problems need not define us.

NOTE: I now accept insurance through Headway.co for clients in New York State ONLY -- If that changes for clients in other states, I will update here. How we think about our history, experiences, and relationships can center us, or can throw us off-balance and cause us to get stuck. I help clients examine how they are spending their time and energy and help them to make manageable change in line with their values. As we work together, we will uncover what it is you value -- what is important to you. We will work together to make shifts to increase happiness and lead to greater connectedness and clarity.

Life is a series of transitions. We often need help in moving from a place of discomfort to a place of calmness, safety, and satisfaction. The process of psychotherapy can help you get to that better place. I work with individuals, couples, and families with a focus on achieving self-understanding for the purpose of changing situations which are stressful and unpleasant. My practice is all inclusive, treating those seemingly well adjusted yet with nagging underlying dissatisfactions to those experiencing extreme distress, alienation, and shame.

As far back as I can remember I've always had an innate desire to help others and see their needs while being both patient and positive. This led me to a career in therapy and early on in this career I was fascinated with seeing the power of exposing people's inner strengths, allowing them a safe place to vent and work on coping skills. After a few years I continued to have a lingering feeling like I could be doing more for my clients. This led me to combine these existing techniques with a new theory called Emergence.

I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist for individuals and couples. In my time with you, our intention is to change the way your life looks and feels. We will be curious about your thoughts, feelings, environment, and history. We will uncover the conscious and unconscious motivations that shape the choices you make. The aim is increased self-awareness, more comfort with emotions, a better understanding of your relational patterns, a greater sense of ease, and more access to joy. These changes will allow you to expand your sense of what is possible and free you to pursue it.

i specialize in teens and adults who are trying to get to the bottom of their feelings and try to figure things out. I’m objective, non-judge mental and try to tell it like I see it; not always how you may see it or even want to see it. I specialize in anger management, passive-aggression, couples therapy, addiction and depression/anxiety.

Psychological health is much more than the absence of problems and mental illness. Even when things seem to be going well we may still feel that there is something missing and that our lives lack the happiness, purpose, and vitality that we desire. My approach begins with the identification of your values. This becomes the foundation of our work together. We then explore thoughts and feelings that get in the way of living a more meaningful and satisfying life and replace them with strategies that are more values consistent and effective in the pursuit of a more satisfying life.
