Teletherapy for Warwick, NY

Are you going through a sudden life transition and are feeling lost or overwhelmed? Are you consumed with worry, fear and anxious thoughts that take up your time, energy and keep you up at night? Are you feeling unsure of what's next? I can help support you as you navigate this transition. My goal is to create a non-judgmental and supportive environment to help process life’s challenges. Let me help you quiet down your inner critic and offer a safe space to process and explore your inner world. Let's connect and get started on working towards your happiness.

I work well with clients (as couples, or individuals) who sense that their relationships could be much better. I can help you achieve clarity about your relationship's potential, provide a roadmap, and encouragement, for you to realize it. I help people who don't want to lose themselves in relationships, but -- rather -- find their best selves there. I approach my clients with the same kindness and compassion I would want if the situation were reversed. I also work with people who are going through, or have gone through, divorce, via weekend After Divorce workshops (Zoom based). I'm licensed in NY, MA, PA, NJ and NM.

I specialize in working with teens and adults who find that limiting beliefs and stress are preventing them from reaching their full potential. As a client, you are an over-achiever and someone who appears to achieve in all areas of life. You believe in perfection versus completing something as "good enough." You show enthusiasm and capability to the world but feel exhausted, overwhelmed, stressed, fearful, and inadequate. I also run 8 and 9-week groups for preteens, teens, and adults. Please view the groups tab for more information or my website.

I am a nurse practitioner holding dual board certifications in psychiatry and family medicine. I specialize in the medical management of mental disorders of children, adults and the elderly. My experience includes treating depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis, attention deficit disorder, dementia, substance abuse, among other conditions. In addition I am registered to certify patients for Medical Marijuana. For those that prefer to address their issues from home, telehealth is available. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management.

I am passionate about helping others achieve goals, work through and problem solve as well as address significant mental health issues and obstacles that intrude, create havoc and prevent individuals from living happy and healthy. As well as a licensed clinical social worker, I also have a masters degree in communication disorders....I'll help you find how and what to say when words and the ability to express feelings are at a loss. Life is not a dress rehearsal....we only go around once!!

I am a New York State licensed Psychotherapist who specializes in treating anxiety, mild depression, parenting challenges and helping individuals navigate dating in the modern world. My background experience includes over 18 years of working with individuals, children and families. I received my certification in field education from Fordham University which has allowed me to train other mental health professionals and social workers in the field.

Even when we have received the ideal nurturing, secure, validating childhood, which can help us to negotiate complexities and challenges we may face later in life, our inner resources can become depleted. The capacity to find joy and comfort may elude us. Rebalancing areas of outer life, and planning steps toward change may be in order. I make time to learn about the myriad ways that using art, energetic, somatic and stress reducing therapies can help each person who comes in, to restore their inner lives as well.

My approach is best described as "skills, not pills." I will help you think about your problems differently and develop strategies to handle them more effectively. I provide psychotherapy to treat a variety of life issues and concerns, including: anxiety, depression, relationship problems, parenting issues, and stress. I'm a very experienced and sex-positive sex therapist. My orientation is as an integration of cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and insight-oriented with a strong mindfulness component. My style is warm and active. I strive to be both compassionate, and honest.

I am a Licensed Social Worker in both New Jersey and New York and received my Master’s Degree in Social Work from Ramapo College of New Jersey. I am trained in EMDR and specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults and couples with a focus on anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, grief and trauma. I also come from a creative background and love utilizing skills such as photography, soul collage and other expressive therapy modalities as tools to engage with clients.

Are you experiencing depression and anxiety? Do you feel that the quality of your family and interpersonal relationships aren't what they're supposed to be? Are you unsatisfied with your career? Do you wonder who you are and what gives you meaning past your daily obligations? As a therapist with lived experience, I have a special awareness of how difficult these and other questions are to answer, which is the reason that our work together is tailored to your individual needs within a framework of CBT, DBT, and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. Our work will consist of an affirming and safe space.

I am a skilled and experienced psychotherapist and certified yoga teacher offering an eclectic, individualized and holistic approach to clients. I provide ongoing or short term support, guidance and skills to those having difficulty coping with life transitions, dysfunctional patterns of thinking or behaviors and traumatic events. I treat adults, children and families who are open and willing to participate in self-discovery and find deeper connection to their truest self. I believe the frenzied pace of our frenetic lifestyle often prevents us from connecting with our own wisdom. I take great joy in helping others envision and manifest their potential.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York and New Jersey, I offer virtual sessions to children, adolescents and adults. I provide a supportive and non-judgmental approach to foster greater insight, self-awareness and growth. My treatment approach is eclectic, designed to meet the individual needs of my clients.

Do you feel anxious or depressed? Are you overwhelmed? Do you struggle with disordered eating, addiction, or loneliness? Disconnection can lead to these feelings. I believe healing happens through connection. As a trauma-informed therapist, I have a wealth of tools to help you explore the impact disconnection has on your life and identify ways to create, repair, and enhance your relationships with yourself and others. In a nurturing environment, we will work collaboratively to identify relationship patterns that no longer serve you, discover how to name your emotions and needs, and settle into a more regulated nervous system.

My biggest takeaway throughout my clinical career is understanding the perplexity of mental health and how all too often, people can be misunderstood when we don’t take the time to listen. I am a strong believer in meeting the client where they are and not forcing the therapeutic process. My engagement skills revolve around maintaining flexibility and no judgement with whomever is in the room with me. It is vital to understand that our challenges don’t define us and we must value every person as an individual, not by their diagnosis, disability or trauma history.

Throughout life, there are phases when we lose our voice. We forget what our goals are, we don’t know which direction is the right one, and we feel stuck. Many people get lost in trying to find perfection, and you forget the joy of being imperfectly you.

Are you longing to make positive changes in your life but don't know where to start? Therapy could be your opportunity to be heard, understood, and supported as you navigate life's challenges and persevere towards personal growth.
