Psychologist, PhD

Depression
, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues are areas of particular interest.
Often, clients enter my practice seeking relief from painful internal states, including sadness, unshakeable anger, anxiousness, or feelings of “stuckness.” Challenging relationships and life circumstances are typically part of their struggles.

I am dedicated to helping clients explore themselves truthfully, with intimate curiosity, so that they can achieve whatever change or goals are meaningful to them.

Voski Hovsepian
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I have experience working with people struggling with substance use issues, anxiety,
depression
, trauma, stress, relationship issues, and more.
My work with individuals begins with establishing an emotionally safe space in which we can explore what brings you into therapy. We then tailor our work to your specific issues and needs, be they contemporary stressors or long standing vestiges of the past -- or both. We may discover core conflicts, psychic remnants of past relationships and experiences, that contribute to your current symptoms or show up in your life as self-defeating patterns in your relationships. Re-working these past struggles can help release you from feeling emotionally trapped, so that you have greater freedom and authorship in your life.

Depression Therapists
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy by depression therapists in New York. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
