I maintain a general private practice with a specialty in the treatment of trauma with offices in the Flatiron District of Manhattan and in Montclair, New Jersey. Whether you have experienced a major traumatic event, suffer from from acute or chronic anxiety and/or depression or whether you are feeling frustrated or stuck in repetitive patterns in your work or personal life, effective psychotherapy can help bring about empowerment, growth, and positive, lasting change. I am an active participant in each treatment and will work relationally with you to address your concerns. I also specialize in the use of more body-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and SE (Somatic Experiencing). I have found, and current research is validating, how essential a healthy mind/body connection is to facilitating any real and lasting shifts from old habituated patterns to new, more adaptive ones, and I have found these modalities particularly effective in this regard.

Welcome. I'm Dr. Matthew Paldy, PhD, a New York State Licensed Psychoanalyst and Psychotherapist. You may be seeking help because of an upsetting event in your life, or you may have struggled with a particular issue for a long time. I am warm and collaborative and will listen carefully to your thoughts and feelings and work closely with you to find the true reasons and meaning behind your suffering. When these are fully understood you can move through life with more calm, confidence, and clarity. I provide a warm, empathetic, non-judgmental place where you can be who you are and feel deeply understood. I will help you feel more grounded and empowered so that you can have more positive emotional experiences, improve your self-esteem, and have more satisfying, balanced relationships. I am dedicated to helping my patients. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, a difficult relationship, or simply a hard time in life, I can help you overcome your struggles. I welcome people of all backgrounds and orientations. Therapy isn't always easy, but it can change your life..

As your therapist, first and foremost I will respect the courage of your decision to seek therapy and create a foundation of safety, acceptance, and collaboration. I strongly believe that symptom reduction (e.g., anxiety, panic, constant worrying, depression, high stress levels, complex PTSD), and an exploration of the root causes of your most distressing problems are both vital aspects of a helpful therapeutic experience. I foster a therapeutic relationship that honors my clients’ conscious minds as well as feelings, symptoms, and behaviors that they may find confusing and painful, but may be clues to presenting problems. I also consider my clients' current life situations holistically, collaborating with them to explore physical, nutritional, general life style, social support, and self-regulation issues to find areas of resilience as well as those that could be strengthened. Presently, I work with late teens and adults of all ages. I work with clients who struggle with symptoms which may be the aftermath of loss, abuse or other difficult experiences, or are simply perplexed with why they repeat distressing patterns which cause them pain. My clients may enter therapy to explore "why they have such difficulty regulating their emotions", or, "why they continue to pursue relationships that are ultimately painful", or, "why it's so hard to feel anything"; they may also enter therapy to receive assistance with specific issues such as life transitions, relationship difficulties, and work or academic problems. I also specialize in the impact of past and current interpersonal trauma or loss on parenting capacities, and assist my clients when these experiences interfere with being loving and supportive parents in the present. My work blends relational psychotherapeutic approaches, trauma-focused assessment and treatment, and psychoeducation for both clients and their families where appropriate. My trauma studies, which included EMDRIA-approved advanced EMDR training, as well as principles of Internal Family Systems and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, have solidified my longstanding belief that therapy must often go beyond talk and attend to messages from our physical selves that may provide clues to where we are most "stuck". While I have been trained in several modalities and my approach is eclectic, I will meet you where you are presently to address the problems that are most distressing to you.

Therapy is an opportunity to talk to someone in confidence about your most intimate details of your life in order to overcome obstacles you are struggling with now and may face in the future. Counseling is an opportunity to learn how to get in touch with your own feelings, sort out issues and learn how to express them in a positive and realistic manner. Through treatment you learn coping techniques for problem resolution along with how to manager and organize your life more effectively. If you tried psychotherapy and had a positive experience you know that you get out what you put into it. If you have never had the opportunity to speak in a private setting with a psychotherapist, now is the time to find out who you truly are and how to improve your inner and outer being.

My name is Jacqueline Raffaele. I come from a family of therapists, as my father as well as my brother are Clinical Social Workers. I've been in the field for over 10 years; and have diverse experience in a multitude of clinical settings. I believe that our earliest emotional conditioning has an enormous impact on the person we become. We may want the best for ourselves but our unconscious mind is conditioned to seek what is familiar.... not necessarily healthy. In the process of therapy, you will be able to explore unconscious issues and present issues that arise due to this potential trauma, negligence and/or dysfunction. As parenting is the most difficult job of all, many have unconscious emotional difficulties that affect their day-to-day life. We are all worth reaching our full potential and gaining peace, happiness, and success.

Our work together will be a collaborative process to discover and understand symptoms or problems that threaten to erode individual and family health and well-being.

The insulation against the pain and frustration in certain challenges helps to lead to greater satisfaction in all aspects of life; in work, love, family and play, enriching relationships and providing a rediscovery of natural energy, gifts and talents. I offer couples and family therapy and parent counseling to provide insight and perspectives for special needs and stressful situations. I work with family members to identify and appropriately express causes of their acting out and anger. It is crucial to understand the significance of factors common to most blended families for succssful blending.

If you are experiencing barriers that are keeping you from having a fulfilling, productive and joyful life, I urge you to seek psychotherapy.

It is most rewarding to be able to guide people to a more satisfying life experience. I am experienced in crisis counseling, individual therapy, substance abuse and group work. I have special training in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Strength Based Positive Psychology. I frequently utilize a variety of techniques.

In addition, I have utilized art and mindfulness techniques. I have worked with adolescents and women and men of all ages, exploring a variety of issues in individual and group settings. If you feel stuck and feel you are ready to explore issues in a safe environment, please give me a call. Life can be better.

In my personal and professional experience we seek therapy when we realize that the coping mechanisms that we have employed for most of our lives are not only not working anymore, but that they are preventing us from experiencing the lives that we would like to be living. When this happens we experience anxiety, depression and a general feeling of dissatisfaction with life. Entering therapy is a courageous step prompted by our inner warrior. It requires energy and commitment so that we can continue when the process becomes challenging. Therapy is a process that can be both exciting and painful. Should you feel ready to explore this path give me a call so that we can determine whether or not we are a good fit. I think that you will find me to be a relational, capable, honest, human and committed partner in your quest to understand and to pursue the life that you, in your heart, would like to be living. Ultimately the source of our pain and suffering is in equal measure to our feeling of disconnection from ourselves, from others and from God.

Imagine being able to clearly and confidently state, "I want my future in 10 years to look like…." and having a mapped out plan to achieve it... We all have struggles.

I specialize in children, adolescents, and adults who suffer from depression, anxiety disorders, etc. Most clients come with doubt as to how a stranger would help them. Having support by a therapist helps tremendously in reaching your therapy goals. Goals are met by the motivation each individual client has.

Mindfulness is the ability to pay attention on purpose in the present moment. It is very beneficial in therapy. I am here to provide you the tools for you to succeed in your life. Once a client - counselor relationship has been established. then the real work begins! If you are searching for a therapist who is understanding and non-judgemental, please feel free to contact me.

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention…. ~ Rachel Naomi Remen This has been my professional email signature for seven, approaching eight, years as a Mental Health Counselor. Over these years, I have lobbied in Albany with the New York Association of Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services (NYAPRS), worked with Westchester and Putnam MHA’s. While the statement above may seem simple and obvious, it is a daunting task to truly give one’s complete attention. Counseling skills involve ways of listening and speaking that help a person feel supported, understood, validated, and hopeful. This is a remarkable mission and why I feel that counseling these past years has not only been a job but also a commitment. To me, listening is a science and a core of Mental Health Counseling. Columbia’s Center for Practice Innovations, where I have done training, supports, as do I, the approach of Motivational Interviewing and the science and art of listening that makes up strengths-based, person-centered approaches. In applying these skills through counseling, and facilitating groups and training, I have seen countless individuals benefit. I have worked in multiple settings: In-patient adolescent, substance abuse and 12-step groups, PROS Day programs, individual counseling, care coordination, social skills after school programs, senior living, domestic violence crisis, clinics and more. I have seen dignity return as individuals experience defining themselves from a strengths-based perspective that does not focus on prescribing interventions to prevent “maladaptive behaviors”. I have utilized the Stages of Change model and been trained in DBT, EFT, IFS, Somatic Experiencing and received certificates in suicide prevention, CBT, wellness, and Play Therapy techniques. My resume will show, I also have been recognized with several professional awards. Needless to say, my professional experience is extensive.
