Men's Issues Therapists in Hartsdale, NY

Do you sometimes feel that everyone else seems to have their lives together while you are struggling day by day? Do you find yourself comparing how others appear on the outside to how you feel on the inside? Does it feel as though you have people fooled into thinking you're more together or successful than you really are? You are not alone. I believe that labels can often be misleading. We all experience things such as anxiety, fear, anger, sadness and problems with relationships. You and I can work together in an informal relaxed atmosphere towards achieving contentment.

During these stressful times many of us are anxious, discouraged or depressed and need support to become more effectively present in work, relationships and/or family dynamics. I am an intuitive, solution-focused Counselor/Psychotherapist and employ Integrative, CBT and Mindfulness practices in assisting Clients to better navigate and make transformative changes in their lives. I am also adept with workplace related issues, and have presented at national conferences on providing effective counseling and psychotherapy services to males.

Making personal and life changes can be difficult. A skilled and caring therapist can help. This is an important piece of work I do, as we can never change others, only ourselves.

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst practicing in Westchester, New York. I have a graduate degree in Social Work from Columbia University, and completed a 4 year post graduate program in Psychoanalysis at the Westchester Center for the Study of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy.

For over thirty years I've helped adults, children, adolescents and couples resolve their conflicts and lead more satisfying lives. I am flexible in my approach, paying special attention to the individual needs of those whom I treat. I have specialties in the treatment of anxiety, panic disorder, depression, couple/marital counseling, children and adolescents, ADD/ADHD, and bipolar disorder. Working with alcohol and other substance abusers has also been a long term part of my practice. With my wife, Roberta Markowitz,LCSW we conduct interventions, helping families obtain treatment for otherwise resistant family members.

We are living in uncertain times. It’s ok to not be ok. It’s ok to need extra emotional support right now. You may find yourself having difficulty managing anxiety & stress worrying about things out of your control. You may be feeling lonely, depressed & isolated. You may be having a hard time parenting your child who struggles emotionally, socially, academically. Your young adult may be struggling with finding their way towards independence. Your child may be exhibiting atypical behaviors or expressing worries & concerns that you don’t know how to answer. Psychotherapy can offer the guidance & support you seek.

I work with the latest scientific and best practices in psychotherapy with individuals, families and groups. With the use of a comprehensive assessment, I target treatment that matches your unique biological, psychological, social, learning and emotional history. Together we build a therapeutic relationship using science, safety and compassion, which are all essential to offering you the best possible insights. My Ph.D. work addresses assessment, human development, learning and mental illness.
