You have found an empathic and supportive therapist. I work with adults and adolescents who have a variety of mental health issues such as: depression, anxiety, and various forms of traumatic issues. I do individual counseling and couple/family counseling. I apply the following clinical approaches: Cognitive Behavioral techniques, Motivational Interviewing, problem solving and REBT to help clints deal with thier issues.

Are you struggling to feel like "yourself" again? Are you unable to feel settled, unable to keep up with your schedule or commitments? Are you feeling upset or more emotional for no apparent reason? Crises, be they large or small, disorient and leave us feeling uncertain, less able to rely upon and function like "ourselves." Growth and change are among the most positive and humanly adaptive qualities and yet the most uncertain and difficult experiences in life. At such times we want unbiased and reliable support to help restore our sense of self and help make positive choices for our lives. I've found the most important predictor in effective treatment is a positive connection between a person and their therapist. I provide a caring approach, empathic attunement, collaborative support, psycho-educational skills training, and the belief that growth and change are possible.

When someone asks how you are, the words 'exhausted' or 'so busy' come to mind. Trying to be all things to all people is wreaking havoc on you. But you don't answer; you can't wait to change the subject & focus on something or someone else. It's a welcome distraction to focus on other people who come to you with their problems; besides, you like to help, it makes you feel good. But you have worries, too. Good sleep is a luxury these days. Anxiety is no longer fuel for your never-ending to-do list; it's now getting in the way & sucking the fun out of everything. You're ready to stop pretending it's not wearing you out. I can help. Need to vent? That's a good place to start, but we don't stop there. We work with your strengths, goals & unique worldview to decide the way forward that best suits you. I'll challenge you to look at things in new ways & through our work together, you can learn how to manage stress/anxiety & improve relationships to help you live life the way you want. You can do things differently. You don't have to listen to the critical voice in your head telling you to 'do more, go faster, it's not enough'. If you're ready to figure out what's driving that, I can help. I invite you to schedule a brief consultation call to see if we're a good fit to work together.

We are a group of highly trained professionals. We deal with all ages, and do individual, couple and family therapy. We are also play therapists capable of dealing with the needs of young children. We offer groups in Anger Management, Parenting, Boundaries, ADHD Skills, and more. We are all Christians and incorporate faith if desired by our clients.

I have a creative based and psychoanalytically informed psychotherapy practice. I pull from all theories of human development and apply them as they apply specifically to the issues at hand. Strengths and problems are both addressed as the individual finds important. My expertise is on emotional regulation, identity development, and relationship dynamics. We may focus on the hear and now, address past issues, and often connect the two to address and resolve current distress. I listen and find listening to be a major part of the therapeutic work. Goals and perspectives addressed in treatment are arrived at collaboratively. Education and support can be offered as dynamics unfold and the therapy deepens and transforms.

Play Therapy & Mindfulness Parent Therapy “You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation". Plato Play is the child's language and play therapy is the path to understanding. We all seek to be understood. As a parent, do you find yourself reacting to versus understanding why or how your child's behavior and developmental needs may contribute? Play therapy and parenting mindfully turns even the most difficult moments with your child into an opportunity to highlight the message behind the action. The "therapeutic powers of play" provide children the opportunity experience healing as they explore and process their world in an environment that makes sense to them. Parents learn to attune to their child providing true understanding, support and connection. Children and parents have the power to "pause" and chose their response. Mindful parenting allows you to be in the "moment" with your child. Think of the times as a child, when you felt invisible, neglected, worthless, experienced betrayal or violence. Play therapy offers your child a natural safe place to explore experiences, feelings, develop self understanding and coping skills. I work closely with parents to provide a meaningful connection to meet everyone's needs.ime, how often we say there is never enough time. What message are we sending our children? Being a mindful or conscious parent means not only being present with your child but asking for support when you need it. Just ask, I will advocate for and support your child at Special Education Meetings, review Individualized Education Plans, communicate with teachers, doctors and other professionals in your child's life.

I applaud your courage in reaching out and seeking therapy. Whether this is your first time or you've been in therapy before, whatever life-challenge you are facing, it would be my privilege to help. I welcome you to the comfort of my office, a nurturing, confidential space....a safe haven where you can give voice to your deepest needs and concerns, where expression of *all* feelings are gently encouraged, and truly heard. In an atmosphere of warmth and unconditional acceptance, I will value, respect and listen deeply to you as we work together to ease your pain. We will look beyond your symptoms to identify and understand the root causes of your distress, freeing you to heal, grow and create the full, meaningful life that you envision and deserve. Issues frequently addressed include: grieving past or recent loss, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, self-criticism, teen issues, gay and lesbian concerns, job and school-related issues, assertiveness, creative blocks, and family conflict. In our time together I will help you develop increased awareness of your thoughts, feelings, needs and patterns of behavior as you explore your inner world, access your strengths and gain the freedom to be yourself - to deeply know, value and appreciate who you truly are, not who you think you should be, or others expect you to be. Honoring the uniqueness of each person, I celebrate diversity and welcome clients from all sexual orientations, ethnic and racial backgrounds and religious/spiritual beliefs. No matter how long you you have struggled or how difficult your situation, we can work together to transform your pain into empowerment, inner peace, and hope. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your particular concerns or schedule an appointment. You don't have to struggle alone.

Welcome! At this time I am doing phone therapy and some video therapy only. As your therapist, I will listen to you with care, interest, empathy, presence and compassion. I will support your emotional healing in a way that respects who you are. I will support your personal strengths, and help you engage them as fully as possible. I agree with Rogers, who believes that when a person experiences unconditional acceptance and empathic understanding from someone who is genuine and real, healing and growth occur. My style is generated from various humanistic psychotherapies with an interest in the mind/body/spirit interrelation, combined with a grounding in classical theories. Gestalt and IFS Therapy both view us as composed of a complex combination of personality components. Many difficulties arise from unresolved conflicts among these. A satisfying, productive life requires these components be mutually aware of and cooperating with each other. These therapies are powerful tools for this kind of integration. I passionately believe, to best serve others, therapists must responsibly examine their own internal world with intention of constantly improving honesty, integrity, presence, compassion, and commitment to the clients best interests. Since I believe in the importance of a good match between therapist and client, I offer a free consultation.”

As a clinical psychologist with 20 years of experience in counseling centers, hospitals and medical centers, I have devoted my practice to helping adults suffering from stress, worry, anxiety and depression, often associated with life transitions, loss, problems in relationships or careers, pregnancy/postpartum, and/or medical conditions. For some, there is a known event that has triggered the anxiety or depression, while others may have a more difficult time identifying a precipitant and it seems as if it has always been there. In every case, I work with each individual to assist in learning effective methods to manage stress and anxiety, improve mood, and increase quality of life. In addition to my general practice, I have a personal interest in helping people improve their health and wellness. Having specialized postdoctoral training in clinical health psychology enables me to also offer effective treatment and coaching for insomnia/sleep difficulties, chronic pain, IBS, smoking cessation and weight loss.

Our sessions together may include education on a particular area of concern, introduction and review of practical coping strategies (e.g. relaxation exercises, communication skills, time management, problem solving), finding ways to help you overcome obstacles that are keeping you stuck, or developing an action plan to assist you in achieving your goals. Often we will examine the interrelationship of your thoughts, feelings, behaviors and physiology and the impact on your life.

I am the Director of the Hudson Valley Center for Cognitive Therapy (HVCCT). Our therapists are warm, dedicated, and highly trained professionals who have specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Goal-oriented and problem-focused, the emphasis of the treatment we provide is teaching individuals specific strategies to change the way they think in order to manage their moods and life problems, build new skills, and develop more effective ways of coping that can be used in everyday life. Our primary specialty areas are depression and anxiety disorders, including panic attacks, worry, OCD, social anxiety, and phobias. We also have significant experience treating ADHD, Aspergers, marital/relationship issues, and grief and provide academic and psychological testing.

I am a NY State licensed psychoanalyst. My clinical approach is psycho-dynamically based, which means that I focus on unconscious factors that underlie one's problems. However, I recognize that some problems may respond better to a different orientation. When appropriate, I work eclectically, incorporating other therapy models, including EMDR and hypnotherapy. In my experience, professional orientation is not what matters most in the therapeutic process. Far more important is the quality of the alliance between patient and therapist. I work with a diverse patient population, from children and adolescents to adults, including seniors. Treatment modalities include individual therapy, couples and family group sessions. I provide a comfortable therapeutic environment to work with patients on achieving a secure sense of self, increased self-esteem and a sound relationship with self and others. In private practice for over 20 years, I have extensive experience working with depression, anxiety and phobias, relationship issues, anger management, sexual identity issues, grief and loss. Additionally, I frequently work with bipolar and borderline patients My work schedule offers daytime and evening appointments; my fee schedule is flexible.

You may feel like you are a bit of a mystery to yourself. You might even know what you "should" be doing to take care of yourself, but something keeps getting in the way. You know you want better connections with others but find it easier to spend time alone or with your pet instead. It may feel like nothing is seriously wrong in your life, but things don't feel totally right either. The self-help books just aren't cutting it anymore and you're just not sure what to do. And yet you find yourself hopeful. You know that, with the right guidance and tools, you can get back on track and feel like yourself again. You know that you can beat your inner critic, shake your fear and pain, eliminate your anxiety, and free yourself from feeling "stuck" so that you can begin to live your life fully again and get back to celebrating YOU in your life. Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As an integrative and multi-disciplinary therapist, it's important to me that I help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying a combination of evidence-based therapy techniques and and scientifically supported complementary therapy approaches, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns, negative perceptions, and unmanageable feelings that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Life can be challenging! Are you are longing to feel more connected to your partner, feeling overwhelmed by work, trying to do it all and have no time for yourself? Whether relationship, work or family challenges are troubling you, I can help. Over the years I have developed my own unique style of psychotherapy which is Active, Creative and Time-sensitive. It is active, since I take an "Active" stance and help you figure out what is wrong and how to remedy the problems that are troubling you. The solutions will be derived using both your own and my "Creative" lens which will give you a new perspective on your life. My therapeutic approach is "Time-sensitive." This means that I will work with you to complete therapy as quickly as possible. I tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. Drawing from a wide range of expertise & experience, we will collaboratively develop the best therapeutic plan for you. I involve clients actively in the process. Time-sensitive therapy is as brief as possible, but the therapeutic relationship lasts for a lifetime. Depending on the issues addressed, some clients may be in therapy for a few months while others may come for a few years. After completing a segment of therapy, over the years, clients often return for a tune up or to consult about a new issue or life challenge. Each time a client returns, therapy tends to be briefer.

Everyday problems-as well as family or personal crises-can lead to intense negative emotions. They test your ability to take care of family, relationships, work, and even your own health.

I help people suffering from anxiety, depression, anger issues, panic attacks, and in difficult relationships. In our work together I will help you 1) envision what your life will look like when anxiety, anger and depression are no longer in your way; 2) discover the patterns that have kept you stuck; and 3) how to change these so you feel and live better. We focus therapy on getting "unstuck." I help you challenge old, harmful beliefs about yourself and the world. And our work together is active; we don't just talk, but also try new ideas that can help heal. Your success will bring feelings of confidence, peace, and a better life.

I believe there is an inner wisdom in each person. If this quiet, inner place of truth and understanding is heard, respected and trusted it will guide healing. I encourage people to have faith in themselves and their own healing process. I have been practicing psychotherapy for 20 years. I treat adult individuals in an atmosphere of respect and privacy. I focus on educating people to understand themselves and learn skills to empower them to take charge of their lives. I teach clear, effective, communication skills and assertiveness to help people stand up for themselves and improve relationships. To facilitate more complete healing I like a team approach combining nutrition, massage, acupuncture yoga and tai chi. Although I am in private practice I work with a network of practitioners. I specialize in treating trauma whether it is single incident trauma or chronic, repeated trauma. I use body oriented approaches to psychotherapy such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Focusing as well as Ego State Therapy because I find them to produce quicker and more complete results. I teach Focusing Classes in my office for a nominal fee so people can learn mindfulness and self awareness skills to use on their own outside of therapy sessions. I provide monthly practice sessions free of charge.

With years of experience I have found that the growth exhibited by clients collaborating in Brief Strategic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy,, Dialectic Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and/or Mindfulness has been effective in assisting them to reach their stated therapeutic goals.
