Therapists in Tarrytown, NY

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with children, teens and adults. I believe that everyone is able to work through life's challenges and create meaningful change when provided with the right tools and guidance. My goal is not only to help you build insight and awareness into the patterns that create roadblocks to your success, but also provide practical tools to support you in living a more fulfilling life and working through the toughest of circumstances.

When I worked in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, I made it a point to meet with patients before reading their chart. As a clinical supervisor of graduate-level social work students, I emphasized the importance of listening without the cloud of a diagnosis and repeated histories. Emotions need to be heard, whether in the form of fierce opinions or protective language. This can happen, in conversation, if the therapist is able to shed or expose known competing biases.

I view therapy as a collaboration between patient and therapist. We are a team with a common objective. When you come in, we will first complete a thorough intake, and then put together a treatment plan that meets your individual needs. During therapy you will learn skills and techniques which you will practice in between sessions, and implement in your everyday life. I believe that if people understand what we are doing, why we are doing it, and how it is going to help them, then they are more likely to engage in treatment, and benefit more from therapy. When you are ready to end therapy, you will take these skills with you.

It’s okay to have mixed feelings about starting psychotherapy. I will do my best to create a warm, safe environment for us to explore what you would like to change in your life and to accept what is beyond your control. I believe everyone has internal and external resources that they can discover and leverage to help themselves feel better.

Are you unhappy? Do you feel your life is not moving in the direction you would like? Would you like to tap into your creative potential? You have been born with a purpose and your soul wants to fulfill this purpose. When you are thrown off track, when you forget who you are - whether from outer conditioning or choices you have made, I guide you lovingly in the direction you are meant to travel. I see your uniqueness and your potential. My approach is to see the whole of you: body mind and spirit.

Deciding to begin therapy can be a turning point in your life. I work with children, adolescents and adults using supportive and insight-oriented psychotherapy for issues related to adjustment and stress (e.g. anxiety, depression) as well as specializing in conditions that affect the brain (e.g. learning disorders, ADHD, brain injury, memory problems). As a clinical psychologist and a neuropsychologist, I have specialized dual training in brain behavior relationships and take a psychodynamic approach when working with clients therapeutically. I also integrate cognitive behavioral techniques to help my clients meet their treatment goals.

As a cognitive behavioral therapist, I help clients learn strategies to reduce stress, improve mood, and handle difficult life situations.

In therapy we will examine how thoughts impact behavior and feelings. Clients will be able to recognize their own negative thinking patterns and to view situations more constructively.
