Parenting Therapists in 10075

I specialize in helping women navigate the struggles of parenting, both in the transition to motherhood, and in the ongoing challenges of parenting and relationships. I help women build the support they need to take better care of themselves and their families. I integrate psychodynamic therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques (CBT) to treat perinatal anxiety and mood disorders, trauma and bereavement after pregnancy loss and help women navigating infertility.

As a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in New York City, I provide psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, parent-child dyads and families. I work from a collaborative and integrative approach, tailoring each treatment to the unique strengths and needs of the individual/family in order to alleviate symptoms and create meaningful and lasting change.

Dr. Alli Kert has been working with parents and their children for more than 15 years. While the nature of her work varies based on client needs, the goals are often similar; enhancing lives through simplification, understanding and consistency. Alli is a licensed psychologist and a certified school psychologist. She works with children and the adults in their lives to provide support and guidance to help navigate both the every day, and the more challenging days.

We often need support in facing changes and challenges in our everyday life. As a licensed clinical psychologist and certified school psychologist, I work collaboratively, individualizing my treatment approach to reach your personal goals. Our work may focus on enhancing coping and communication skills; parenting concerns; stress reduction; understanding and improving relationships with significant others and learning how best to utilize your strengths to greater effectiveness.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over fifteen years of experience working with children, adolescents and adults. As a clinician with many years of experience working in schools, I also collaborate with teachers and other professionals when appropriate. I rock my glasses of the day and truly embody a therapist with my daily cardigans.

I am invested in each of my client’s goals and tailor therapy to your specific needs. It’s difficult to seek help, and I recognize how much strength it takes when you reach out. I see that in itself as the first step to feeling better. I am an LCSW-R, the highest level of licensure, and I provide a relaxed space for you to feel comfortable & unjudged, so that you can share thoughts & feelings that are hard to say aloud. Through our therapy, my clients are able to explore new parts of themselves, make decisions, build self-esteem, reach goals, & draw boundaries that they never thought were possible. Pls call/email for a free consult.

At the heart of my work, I collaborate with you in tending to your emotional life, helping you build resilience while cultivating sustainable happiness. I work with individuals, parents, couples, people searching for healthy relationships, anyone seeking to effect change, and people overwhelmed by maladaptive patterns in their lives. Drawing from my training and life experience, we'll work skillfully and compassionately, together, toward achieving your goals. With a profound belief in the capacity for people to transform themselves, I can create a safe place to heal and grow.

I believe my approach to therapy has always been to provide a space where people can feel heard, understood and challenged to look at themselves and the choices they have made. This applies to the youth of today as well as those more experienced in life. I offer a genuine and direct approach to changing lives, while going at the right pace for each individual. People need to feel safe in a non judgmental space and appreciate honest feedback and direction while they transition on their therapeutic journey. I am eclectic in my approach to treatment and use a multitude of therapeutic techniques which are individualized to each client.

Every person who chooses therapy does so for a unique combination of reasons, as my patients have revealed to me in twenty years of private practice. No one fits into simple categories, teens especially. Some are impacted by events long ago, others by recent setbacks, while most are triggered by a combination of influences known and unknown. Working with children and adolescents, I understand these manifold pressures are sometimes accompanied by resistance to change, thereby limiting the otherwise positive support offered by family and friends. That’s when I can help.

Are you seeking non-judgmental, engaged and collaborative, solution-focused help? As a gender-conscious, cis male psychotherapist specializing in couples and individual therapy, I use both systemic and psychodynamic thinking to help a patient or couple understand their position(s), roles, and relationships, past and present. I honor self-determination and facilitate self-awareness, so that each person I work with can gain clarity, perspective, and relief.

As a mental health counselor, I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is both welcoming and encouraging for all clients. Often times, individuals may feel hesitant about beginning therapy, however, my approach to therapy provides each client with an individualized treatment plan in accordance with their preferred pace, as well as establishing a secure and trusting environment. I am passionate in sharing my knowledge within the field, as well as providing the tools necessary for my clients to achieve their therapeutic goals through a collaborative and personalized relationship.

As a clinical psychologist, I am deeply committed to helping people improve their lives. I am dedicated to helping people resolve their personal problems and alleviate personal suffering. For many people seeking professional help, my role is to facilitate: having a more enjoyable life, make better life choices, have healthier and happier relationships, and alleviate emotional pain through self-awareness and self acceptance. My practice involves psychological services to adults and adolescents. I work with individuals and couples, and I provide parent consultations and diagnostic consultations.

I provide a warm and safe yet dynamic environment in which my clients express their innermost thoughts, gain insight, heal wounds and learn to live with more confidence, humor and joy. With 25 years of supervising and clinical experience with children, adults and couples, I am able to quickly attune and help clients feel at ease. I listen closely to my client’s thoughts, fears and dreams while helping them to make meaningful connections that strengthen their sense of self. While deep inner work generally takes time, some positive change can be anticipated rapidly.

Currently, I only have weekday morning availability. I provide a safe and supportive space for my adult and adolescent clients to explore and work through the conflicts, concerns, and struggles that bring them to therapy. I believe every client has a set of skills and strengths that therapy can help to identify and build upon. Therapy focuses on uncovering underlying issues and thought patterns that may be negatively impacting the client's life. I also provide parent support to parents of adolescents who want to strengthen the relationship with their child/better understand their child's developmental needs.

I know it is hard and I have been there myself. You want to feel better about yourself and life, achieve your goals, or at least figure out what they are so imagine being free of anxiety, doubt, depression, intra- personal and inter-personal conflict and more. I care and can help you via my coaching and/or therapy. Some issues but obviously not all that I encounter and work with are parenting, marriage, friendship, career, family, business.Let me again say I have been there myself and that will help me to help you...

If you are frustrated and unhappy in your relationships, your career or within yourself, I can help you identify the conflicts that keep you from moving forward in life. Working together, you will gain a better understanding of who you are, where you want to go, and how to get there. I specialize in treating adults and couples with insight-oriented psychotherapy and also offer targeted stress reduction strategies such as breathwork and meditation to ease anxiety and improve overall wellbeing.

Greetings! I am Dr. Melita T. Stancil, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I am passionate about providing practical and effective treatment that serves the individual as a whole person. My treatment for individuals and families is fueled by results from my own experience, scientific evidence and incorporating the patient’s values. In essence, each patient is cared for as a human being with unique needs. I received a Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical-Community Psychology at the University of South Carolina.

In our work together, we form a safe, trusting relationship where you can share experiences, resolve challenges, and learn to approach life with more confidence, humor, and joy. I have been treating clients for over twenty years, from many different cultures, countries, and backgrounds. My style is best described as respectful, sincere, and empathic. I completed my Ph.D. in clinical psychology, have a specialty in couples, family, and bereavement therapy, and have post-doctoral training in psychoanalysis at New York University.

Coping skills are important, and I will certainly help you with those. But you want to really live your life, not just get through it. Merely coping is not enough, you want to thrive! That's my working assumption. If you don't think that's possible, that's where our work begins, to figure out how you can regain hope, and the belief that vitality is your birthright. Clearing space for creativity is an important part of the process. Don't have a creative bone in your body, you say? I say you're wrong. Let's talk.
