Therapists in Sag Harbor, NY

SUCCESS COMES WHEN YOU TURN WISHING INTO DOING. As your Life Coach, I will partner with you to take the dreams you have in your head, those visions about what you want to do next in your life, and do the work to make those dreams a reality. I can work with you on Career Transition, Relationships, Parenting, Health&Wellness and Work/Life Balance. Take a minute right now to imagine what your ideal life would look like. If those images are different from the life you are living today, Life Coaching may be right for you.

Life can change in a second; in a myriad of ways. Therapists are there to help you through. My practice is open to all people experiencing challenges in any aspect of their life. My practice includes but is not limited to working with issues of grief/bereavement, eating disorders, cutting, anxiety and depression, LGBTQ, stress management, marital conflict and more. I use a holistic approach in my practice and really believe in starting where the client is. I strongly believe that the only way out of something is through it. I look forward to helping you on your journey forward.

You have the opportunity to start living your best life now. If you are experiencing a transition, problem or life disruption there is also an opportunity for change and growth. If you're looking for counseling you may be ready to take the steps to live the life you really want to live. I work with individuals, couples and families dealing with addiction and recovery issues, communication, anger management and coping skills. I believe in endless possibilities for growth and am happy to work with you to help you find your path.

If you feel lost, confused or hopeless about your life or your relationships, you can turn things around. You can get clear about these problems, and find solutions. You can have a life that more authentically fits who you really are. You can manage your relationships so they begin to feel warm and fun again. When you're suffering and feeling awful, it may be hard to believe that there are things you can do to feel good again. It may also be hard to believe that you can find the power to shift and revive painful relationships.

In my 24 years as a mental health provider, I have taken great pride in helping people through a variety of challenges and life events. To me, therapy is about become whole again, healing current issues and past traumas, (even the ones we don’t remember, but our bodies and psyche does). Most often clients present with one issue and the connections we make during our work together show many layers and exactly why these situations arise. I help my clients not only understand where they are and why they are there, but also what they must do to change their lives, heal, and move forward a happier and healthier person.

Do you want more connection, peace, acceptance and meaning in your life and relationships? Feel like you’ve lost connection and communication?Are you recently single or post-divorce and ready to begin dating again but don’t even know where to begin? Have you been trying to find the right partner and continue to meet the wrong people or fall into the same old type of relationship that just doesn’t work? I have helped many people uncover the blocks that have held them back from finding their soul mates and would love to get you started on the right path to feeling true connection again. I will even help you write your dating profile!

Welcome! I would be happy to connect with you and chat about what you are looking for. My specialty is helping women recover from trauma. I provide short and long term psychotherapy from a few sessions to help you get through an especially challenging time and on-going therapy that builds a long term relationship to support you through life's seasons. I am here to listen so that you have a safe supportive place to connect, be seen, and grow from. Sessions are your time to be heard and attended to. We will get curious about your internal maps for healing and course correct as needed to ensure your needs and goals guide our work.

I make it a priority to help my clients feel at ease with me and with the work we do together. If you were my client, you can expect me to be warm, welcoming and supportive. My specialty areas include: ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar, OCD, relationship issues, and self-esteem building, and I have personal comfort with many other presenting concerns (please see side bar).

Are you ready to gain a stronger sense of self, insight into your difficulties, and create effective skills to live healthfully and happily? Feel supported and confident that you have come to the right place. There is a deep opportunity to discover resilience by looking inward through counseling and unique/dynamic evidenced-based forms of therapy. Like the explorers, archeologists and nomads of our history, I am enthusiastic about helping you map out uncharted territory. From a holistic framework using experience, intuition, and a bit of humor, I hope to help you transform through your journey.

Thoughtful support can be an anchor when we are developing ourselves professionally. I provide supportive supervision for practitioners to help you build a practice that best reflects your particular attributes and desires. Often our intention to be of service results in too-readily bending in the direction of the perceived needs of our clients. This habitual inclination to center other’s needs over our own can quickly become depleting. Our sessions offer an opportunity to creatively practice honoring yourself in the work so that you can generatively listen for the intuitive wisdom that serves as your clinical guide.

I strive to illuminate your existing strengths and help you to recognize ways to apply these strengths to the areas of your life where you are feeling discouraged or stuck. I will help you to regain your equilibrium, achieve your goals and bring out your best self. I address anxiety/ depression, relationship issues, couples therapy, addictions, weight/eating issues, divorce. I do extensive work with high functioning ambitious adults helping to refine personal goals, push past obstacles and more fully realize potential. I also love working with children, teens and parents.

I treat individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief or a general sense of being stuck. I add to my over 25 years of experience various healing approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, talk therapy, dream analysis, journaling and other modalities in our work to find re-newed meaning and purpose in life. As a team we explore methods for bringing symptom relief and understanding of the root causes of your problems. I also counsel couples who find their connection damaged. I provide a neutral space for exploring causes of the problems and offer tools for effective communication and healing in the relationship.

Does This Describe Your Stepfamily Situation? Who comes first? Kids or me? The prior spouse? Discipline? Lack of the rules, roles, responsibilities? More…? These are complex issues. I counsel with love and direction.

Your thoughts are racing, stuck on replay. Your inner critic is winning. Life feels meaningless and exhausting. You want to escape reality. Feeling scared of vulnerability and hiding who you really are is wearing on you. Your relationships are draining. It feels like you're carrying around a body bag full of fears and insecurities. Feeling like a prisoner to your past is exhausting, too. Let’s face it: feeling confused, lost, and stuck has gotten old. Fortunately, you've come to the right place. Therapy can help. Life can be hard and feel overwhelming at times, but you don't have to live in pain.

In my 20+ years of experience working with adults and couples, I believe that the therapeutic relationship and the safety it provides is key to change. My expertise lies in helping my clients work through their depression, anxiety and relationship issues. As an EMDR trained therapist I help my clients desensitize and reprocess traumatic memories and break free of the distorted negative beliefs they developed in a dysfunctional or addicted family system. The link between childhood trauma exposure and substance abuse is well established. EMDR can help treat alcohol and drug addiction by treating the trauma that underlies it.

I treat patients utilizing a relational analytic style. Family and personal issues are addressed. I specialize in physical symptoms as a pathway for heightened conscious awareness and psychological health.
