Maybe something unexpected recently happened in your life and you're not sure how to navigate through.

How do you cope with those? You know something needs to change... I provide real and positive counseling, never hesitating to be direct when something is off and for finding laughter or a smile even at the toughest times.

Today's hectic world is filled with challenges that can be difficult to navigate on your own. Concerned about your teen's mood, judgment, or behavior? Feeling stuck, dissatisfied, or overwhelmed? Sometimes our typical ways of dealing with problems don't work anymore, or new issues arise that test our ability to cope. I help teens and adults develop strategies to handle life's difficulties. Adults appreciate that I work collaboratively, offering insight and sensitive feedback to promote growth and change. Teens like that I encourage meaningful self-reflection and problem solving around issues at home, school, and with peers. I help clients harness their strengths, uncover what is bothering them, change self-defeating behaviors, and gain healthy coping skills to enhance their well-being. Teenagers benefit from having a safe space, free from the pressure of teachers, parents, and peers, where they can talk freely about the stresses in their lives. With families I strive to strengthen connections between teens and parents. Reaching out for help may be easier than you think. Clients who have already taken this step tell me that my non-judgmental and caring approach, and warm sense of humor, help put them at ease.

With more than 30 years of clinical experience, my clients (adults, couples and groups) tell me they most appreciate my patience, insight and good humor. I believe deeply in my clients' abilities to find their truth when met with skill and honesty offered without judgment. Many come people come to me with trauma-based issues. It is essential for fear and frustration to be addressed in ways that are both effective and tolerable. I often use EMDR as well as EFT - Meridian Tapping and Mindfulness Practices to help clients move through painful memories and/or negative, limiting self-beliefs which get in the way of high performance and joyful living. I do not practice "cookie cutter" therapy - each client is unique in his or her needs. The first thing I do with each person is listen. Then, together, we work out a plan that will meet your needs in the safest, most respectful and efficient way possible.

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.

Since 1995, I have been privileged to assist individuals, couples and families to confront their challenges, limitations and entanglements in order to find greater health, joy and fulfillment. I know that you already have all that is needed for your own healing and manifestation and it is my goal to gently and respectfully facilitate the connection to and integration of your innate gifts. The clients drawn to Integrative Therapy are in various stages of transformation and are seeking additional tools to support their process. Many clients are experiencing a spiritual crisis and have lost touch with and faith in their higher guidance. Others may be “stuck” in old patterns that no longer serve them. Our work together provides a safe space to explore and release entanglements, limitations and blockages in order to experience their inner truth. Some clients may be physically, mentally and/or emotionally challenged by illness or injury. In our work we decode the messages inherent in their symptomology to broaden the scope of their healthcare choices. Our work together will be of limited duration because you will gain the necessary tools to release your blockages, balance and integrate your energies and tap into your soul’s guidance.

My practice exists to help individuals whose daily functioning has been impaired by the experience of very difficult situations. To aid them in finding resilience once thought lost forever in an effort to restore healthy daily living and use their newfound capabilities to enhance their futures. I strongly believe adversity leads to creativity. My goal is to help those who have lost meaning and purpose find the lives they truly desire.

The Humanistic approach has and continues to be the form of therapy that most closely matches my sense of the world and how human beings exist within it. Based on the fundamental concept of the power of human growth, it speaks to me of hope, of personal power, of the ability for each of us to change ourselves and our world into someone or something that we can experience differently. It seems to me that it takes courage to try to change things that matter to us - which is why I believe the therapeutic relationship is so valuable.

Psychotherapy Services with Steven Gordon -- I have over 26 years of post masters experience, and treat children, families, adolescents, and adults. I have been in private practice for 20 years, and I accept most third party payment plans. My office is on Long Island at the Commack Consultation Center. The focus is on the strength of the therapeutic relationship, and allowing the client to feel comfortable enough to say everything Psychotherapy services, with an emphasis on positive, cognitive process, crystallizing your potentialities, and having a corrective emotional experience. I am dedicated to fostering personal growth and freedom, enhancing interpersonal communication, promoting emotional courage, improving coping mechanisms,and providing a nurturing and safe environment. Great influence on the therapeutic rapport. At Commack Consultation Center. The ultimate purpose, in every instance, is to help the client mobilize and liberate the negative (as well as the positive) feelings he has long kept submerged. The analyst accomplishes this by first joining the patient's resistances and supporting and reinforcing his uncooperative attitudes. I treat mostly children and adolescents, and have over 27 years of post-masters experience. I am Highly motivated, with abilities to provide quick, accurate assessments, and interrelate effectively with team. Formidable skill at developing rapport with clients,and assessing diagnostic criteria. Extensively trained and experienced.

I believe that everyone encounters periods in their lives when they can use the guidance and support of an empathic therapist. When I work with clients I am respectful of where they are in their lives, and I strive to provide them with the insight, tools and skills they need to move forward effectively and productively. The basis of the client-therapist relationship is confidentiality. It's important for a client to feel safe within the four walls of my therapy office when talking about very personal issues. Clients can expect me to respect their confidentiality to the fullest extent possible, and to be honest with them about my policies and procedures so that there are no surprises. For example, at the outset of therapy I explain to clients that there is one exception to confidentiality, and that is where I perceive there to be child abuse. In those cases, I am mandated by law to report the situation to authorities.

Life is a series of adjustments... it is normal to get stuck at points along the way. Most of my clients are regular people just like you and me whose Life has gotten too far out of balance. I have learned through my years of practice how to facilitate the rebalancing and, even more importantly, how to help clients learn the lessons inherent in their crisis. I have been practicing at the same location for over 20 years. I am involved in the training and supervision of other therapists in both EMDR and Internal Family Systems.

At this time I have a full caseload and am unable to assist new clients. I will update this message as space become available. Thank you. Have YOU decided it is time to take control of your life? Have you felt that your mind is overwhelmed, .. and have had trouble making sense of the chaos that surrounds you.. that gets in the way from you making solid decisions and even can keep you up at night. Things can be so difficult.. and for that YOU need someone that can be a kind, thoughtful and non-judgmental that WILL give a listening ear.. and guide you when you are ready to MOVE FORWARD. I am a person that strives for peace.. and is why I have over a decade of experience, helping others to sort through the troubles and conflicts.. in a world.. that may seem, more often than not.. on the attack. A world that can leave one feeling stripped and bare..with no more than an old, wrinkled shirt to put on and hurry through another mind-numbing, mentally and emotionally taxing day. At Wise Mind. LLC.. my focus is to give you the tools to own your world.

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakens. CARL JUNG (1875-1961) HOW DOES TALK THERAPY WORK? There is a writers’ saying: “How can I know what I think until I see what I say?” This is called shaping at the point of utterance. This principle applies powerfully to psychotherapy. Discussing your thoughts, feelings, emotions, conflicts and problems with another person is usually of great help. If that person is caring, professionally trained, smart, sensitive and objective, then talking with that person and exploring your difficulties and concerns can be of tremendous assistance. Airing your thinking aloud with a professional, focused, detached and yet compassionate second ear, can help you to unpack your emotions, rethink chronic problems and worries, and live more consciously. It can give you clarity and allow you to see things in a new light. The next time you find yourself depressed; anxious; creatively blocked; in conflict with your mate or family or children; or engaging in an unhealthy behavior like reaching for a drink, fattening food, or a drug, you may be better able to comprehend why you are driven to do so, and make conscious some connections that were previously unconscious. What just happened to trigger the feeling or behavior? Why did it happen then? And most important: must it always happen like that or can you do something to prevent such deleterious behaviors from recurring?

My practice specializes in treatment trauma, both individual and complex, with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is an evidence/research model that is successful in the treatment of recent and past traumatic events. EMDR is especially helpful to clients who have experienced trauma given it is not an exposure treatment model and does not required extensive talking about the traumatic incidents. The first two sessions are used to develop a psychosocial history and to identify the specific events to be desensitized with EMDR. Prior to treatment of traumatic events, clients create and practice realization tools to help with the success of the therapy. Traumatic incidents are scaled on the Subjective Units of Disturbance Scale ( 0 to 10) with 10 being the most severe. The goal in treatment is to bring the level of distress for the trauma to 0 or neutral. In addition, I specialize in working with Homicide Survivors, an individual who has had a member of their family murdered. I use the EMDR and the Recent Event Protocol to focus on and desensitize the event for the victim.

My goal is to assist individuals, couples and families to develop emotional and relational well-being. This is done by learning new skills and having experiences so that new feelings and behaviors can be integrated into our life and relationships. When couples come in for marriage counseling they are usually in some sort of distress, frequently one or both not feeing their emotional needs are being met. When stressed people tend to either react or shut down, thus impeding communication. It is also hard for one to empathize and comfort the other when in a stress state. When each learns how to monitor their own stresses and has the tools for alleviating stress, relationships fair better. At this point it becomes easier to dialogue and learn about the other's needs and communicate ours. Indviduals seek counseling or coaching frequently because of stress in relationships. They may be experiencing anxiety or depression as a result. These relationships problems can be in family, at work or with friends. On occasion someone may seek psychotherapy for personal growth reasons, they want to feel they can understand themselves better and improve the relationship they have with themselves. Singles who are looking to find the right relationship also may seek counseling in order to help clarify who they are and who would be a good match for them. At other times people are suffering from trauma that has occurred from childhood wounds or more recent events. Until these wounds and traumas are healed and resolved they may impact the current functioning and wellbeing of the individual.
