Eclectic Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and Florida. My aim is to increase the individual's sense of his or her own wellbeing. I employ a range of techniques in my practice based on dialogue, communication and behavior change that are designed to improve the mental health of a client. I received training as an Anger Management Specialist- II and also received advanced training in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and in grief counseling. I specialize in treating anxiety, mild depression, anger management, parenting issues, stress management, and grief.

I have worked for over 20 years with diverse individuals in the social work and mental health fields. Life experiences led me to pursue this helping profession. I genuinely care for my clients and love being a therapist. I can help you to stop overthinking, work through feelings such as sadness and emptiness, and improve your relationships.

Perhaps you have come to realize you need support to cope with what some might term a high-conflict divorce or maybe you have come to feel that you are a shadow of your former self after a long-term painful relationship or maybe you are questioning whether or not you have been a victim of domestic abuse. These experiences could indicate that you have been a victim of coercive control, sometimes referred to as narcissistic abuse, a type of relational abuse that is increasingly common. If so, you are not alone. If so, you are likely in need of support, education and help in healing from betrayal trauma.

Are you experiencing problems that seem to be getting in your way of living a fulfilling life? Do you feel ignored, unaccepted or maybe your life just feels chaotic? We all may have felt that way some time or another. Most of the time we move on and continue on with our life. However sometimes we feel stuck, and despite being told (or telling ourselves) "just get over it” we can’t! There is something that holds us back and we cannot make sense of what is happening to us.

Do you or your child often feel anxious, or find it hard to trust anyone? You can’t stop thinking about what happened and you try to push those thoughts away. You can’t sleep or sleep too much. You worry if you talk about it, you will make things worse. You’ll unravel, start crying and never stop. These are some of the common symptoms associated with traumatic life events. As a nationally recognized expert in trauma treatment, I utilize and train others in evidence based methods to enable individuals and families overcome the impact of painful life experiences or trauma. By reading this now you are taking the first, important step.

Life comes with ups and downs which can at times feel difficult and overwhelming to navigate. I believe that nobody has to go through it alone, and that therapy can be a wonderful and safe space to build tools to help you get through life's challenges. I have a warm, open, and empathetic approach, and I strive to create a safe, non-judgemental and comfortable therapy environment for my clients using a strengths based perspective. I utilize several different modalities such as CBT, ACT, IFS and brief strategic among others, but I believe that each client is unique and I will tailor an approach specifically for you and your needs.

Psychotherapy is about change and making yourself a priority. Life can become overwhelming and out of control. We become anxious, depressed about poor health, destructive relationships, losses, trauma and endless disappointments. When you hear yourself say, "I don't want to live this way any longer", you are ready to take your life back. As a therapist, I focus on the importance of valuing yourself, forgiving yourself for not being perfect, and most importantly, knowing that you are deserving. With a greater sense of self-worth you will successfully pursue the things you need and want; relationships, work, education........

You feel disconnected from life & from your body. You struggle to connect in your relationships, are unhappy in your career, feel hopeless for the future or move through the world in a fog. You’ve been shamed for who you are & now you speak to yourself with harshness & can’t ever feel like enough inside your own head. You’ve been told that who you are is somehow inherently flawed. I help people increase compassion, reduce shame and feel a greater sense of belonging within themselves and their bodies.

We all have a natural resiliency, but sometimes need external supports to feel empowered. Combining use of verbal psychotherapy, EMDR, creative arts therapy, and mindfulness, I provide this support in a way that best fits each individual's needs. I work with all ages, with a specific focus on adolescents and adults. Through the context of a trusting therapeutic relationship, my clients explore issues, both past, present, and future. This brings about a deeper level of self-awareness that leads to personal growth, healing, and the alleviation of stress.

Psychotherapy can be a challenging and rewarding process. Of course, people come to treatment to talk about what's wrong, but it is also important to talk about what's right. Each person has natural areas of strength we can further develop to help increase coping skills, reduce distress, improve relationships, and develop a more positive outlook.
