Adults Therapists in Tarrytown, NY

Life is a journey. On this journey sometimes we get derailed and need help to get back on track. I hope to help you find your way back! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who have been working in the field of Behavioral Health for the past 25 years. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescent, and adults . I believe that we all have the ability to overcome challenges, and difficulties, which often interferes with one’s personal growth. Our early experiences, and culture, shapes who we are as individuals, how we see ourselves, and how we interact with others.

I provide a relaxed and non-judgmental environment in which to focus on understanding the issues you are having and to map out an effective path to change. My approach is based on specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and related evidence-based treatments for depression, anxiety and other psychological issues experienced by adults and adolescents. I also have expertise as a clinical health psychologist and have worked in outpatient and hospital settings with families, patients and healthcare teams to improve coping with and management of chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and HIV/AIDS.

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.

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.

Additionally, I support clients in working through difficulties feeling successful at school, work and in social settings.

A Chinese proverb reminds us, "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." It may take courage to take that first step - to contact a therapist. I am an experienced, caring, knowledgeable Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process, in which the therapist and client work together toward the client's goals. I help clients examine and understand their past, their thinking, their feelings, their options. I can provide support and empowerment to help you address your issues and struggles, whatever they may be.

I believe that any person who is motivated to change can benefit from psychotherapy. My approach is create a collaborative relationship with each client in the interests of personal development.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I treat children, adolescents and adults using evidence-based practices. I have expertise in working with anxiety disorders including generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), specific phobias, social phobia, panic disorder, and separation anxiety disorder.

For many of us, there comes a time when something in our life feels out of balance, out of control. Perhaps it's our marriage or partnership, a family relationship, a job, our health. As a psychotherapist, I feel my goal is not to provide you with answers or advice, but to help you understand yourself, your world, and your place in it.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with a great number of clients in a variety of settings. I work with adolescents and adults collaboratively to create a safe and comfortable space where clients can be their true selves. I help clients to explore their current circumstances as well as their past experiences to understand who they are and why they are this way. Through this understanding and experience clients are able to create positive change in their lives. I believe that to truly know thyself is the path to self acceptance and happiness.

We all experience times in our lives when what once worked for us no longer does. We may become overwhelmed, anxious, fearful, or angry and are no longer able to ignore those feelings. Instead they get in our way. Talking to someone, especially one who listens to you carefully and joins you in a collaborative and supportive process, is amazingly helpful. People with whom I work note that they begin to feel better and less alone almost immediately.

I work with individuals, adolescents and adults , who want or need to find their own path to inner peace and harmony without the use of alcohol or drugs, or the use of rage or isolation, or the creation of chaos as a distraction; people who wrestle with the parts of themselves that keep getting in their way. I also work with families who are confused how to help a loved one who is abusing alcohol and other drugs.

Are you stressed and overwhelmed? Wanting relief from unpleasant feelings? Looking to create more meaningful relationships? Do you know that something isn't right but are unsure how to fix it? Let's work to figure out the root of what is troubling you. Whether dealing with constant sadness, worry, self-doubt, or problems in relationships, even the one with yourself - with compassion and insight, I have helped many clients move out of feeling "stuck" and find their way to leading happier, more fulfilling lives.

I offer a safe, positive, empathetic, and productive clinical environment that emphasizes individual and family needs. My treatment approach offers hopeful solutions without stigma, judgment, or empty labels. I challenge self-deception while encouraging assertiveness, authenticity, and self awareness. My practice specialties include: 1) helping adolescents and adults who struggle with relationship issues, trauma, abuse, grief and loss, life transitions, anxiety, phobias, depression, and work/life balance; 2) couples therapy; and 3) domestic violence education and safety planning.
