Therapists in New York

I provide counseling for individuals, couples, and families by creating a positive and caring treatment environment based on specific needs of each client. Using integrative, psychodynamic, CBT and interactive therapeutic methods, I help the client overcome the existing problem, implement behavioral changes, and explore his/her potential more effectively in everyday life. I am working in two locations: in Queens and Manhattan. My both offices is conveniently located in NY and it is easily accessible by public transportation. I have flexible working hours and I am open to scheduling counseling sessions on the weekends and late evenings, as well as any emergency appointments, if needed.

The goals of my work are assisting individuals to gain insight into their inner worlds, resolve internal conflicts, and find meaning in their lives through self-exploration and addressing identity issues, interpersonal relationship difficulties, trauma, resilience, and life transitions.

There are moments in your life when you wake up and find yourself filled with unexplainable dread, unrelenting anger or sadness. As a parent or a partner you try to offer the best of you and yet the feeling of failure or lack of satisfaction is often there. What if you could have a space which could help you find a way to understand these things, find an answer, a solution? What if your child has difficulties making friends, is unmotivated to do the homework, isolates more, maybe even starts to lie? What if he/she needs that space as well? It can be challenging to be an adult but growing up, can be difficult as well.

Anxiety, worry and self-doubt are perhaps the most common and widespread challenges faced by children today. From every area of their lives, children face daunting pressures and demands. For those already anxious or vulnerable, these pressures maybe be overwhelming. Already primed for frustration or failure, such children may find navigating key developmental transitions - from childhood to grade school, for example, or from pre-adolescence to the teen years - difficult if not impossible. Parents may have tried other interventions or therapies; but often with little or no success. What's a concerned parent to do?

Whether you are having trouble coping with anxiety, depression or work/life transitions, I offer a safe and compassionate environment that is solutions-focused to help achieve your goals. Primarily, I conduct clinical psychotherapy by utilizing a variety of clinical techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and interpersonal psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I work with a variety of populations including children, adolescents, adults, and families.

Hi! My name is E and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked with a multitude of clients presenting with depression, anxiety, histories of trauma, relationship issues, family issues, & issues related to gender identity and/or sexual orientation. With a background as a speech-language pathologist, I also spent many years working in nursing homes and outpatient rehabilitation centers. I am passionate about helping people reach their goals and fullest potential, engage in relationships that feel fulfilling and healthy to them, have a deeper understanding of themselves, and to create a life that feels meaningful to them.

Psychoanalytic therapy is often maligned in popular media but it remains for me one of the few treatments that seeks to address the innermost, often hidden, parts of ourselves. Psychological symptoms are not only a source of suffering, they are also a message that speaks to desires, conflicts, and pain, wrought by a personal history that can sometimes only come alive when spoken to a professional listening other. The flip-side of anxiety is always a passionate dream that has not been encountered as such. I see my work as bringing my clients closer to that possibility. The intimacy of speaking and listening is rare and a gift.

As an adolescent/young adult specialist (ages 15-25) I can work with both the young person and their family and will develop a concise formulation of the dynamics that will be useful to all.

I am direct and focused on the issues that my patients bring to me. My 36 years of experience with children and parents afford me great advantage over those who have had no experience within school districts. In addition, my years of concurrent psychoanalytic training and social work have further sensitized me to allow me to help patients with all their major life issues. I am dedicated to my practice of adults, teens and children whom I help with all their problems that life brings.

If you are seeking therapy at this point in your life, you may be feeling that your usual way of coping isn't working anymore. This may lead to you feeling alienated and lonely, frustrated and angry, hopeless, confused, striving for perfection, or otherwise stuck. It may simply be that your usual way of being is made up of out-of-date strategies - what was once adaptive is now causing you stress and unnecessary suffering. Let me help you learn how to start relaxing the struggle. Our work together will provide an opportunity for self-knowledge, tolerance for difficult emotions, and acceptance of your own humanity.

The conflicts and problems associated with living in this difficult world start in childhood and persist into adult life. Effective treatment enables patients to free themselves of the chronic unhappiness and dissatisfaction that have been too long part of their lives. This requires the special training and experience that I have acquired in my professional life. And, it requires a patient who is prepared to change.

My twenty years of practicing psychoanalytic therapy have made it clear to me that people want to be happy, feel optimistic, and create a more satisfying life. It is my clinical intention to help resolve the problems that prevent you from achieving these goals. As a therapist, it is my responsibility to help you speak freely so you are more comfortable with your thoughts and feelings, leading to improved relationships and a better state of mind.

Our work together will be a collaborative process of discovery to understand the issues threatening to erode individual and family health and well-being. Through this journey, we will tailor a plan for you to provide relief, long-term personal growth and heightened emotional knowledge. Insulation against pain and frustration helps lead to greater satisfaction in all aspects of life; work, love, family and play, enriching relationships and a rediscovering natural energy, gifts and talents. Through my additional experience in career counseling, community affairs and public education, I provide my clients with understanding in areas that may create particular issues.
