Domestic Abuse Therapists in Mount Vernon, NY

My specialty is trauma, with the understanding that trauma is often not just one major event, but also the cumulative effect of both severe and more subtle traumas over a lifetime, ranging from emotional deprivation, bullying, verbal abuse to rejections and perceived failures. Since I believe that trauma contributes to most issues, I work with a broad range of patients, including those struggling with interpersonal problems, having difficulty reaching personal and professional goals, or lacking confidence and positive self-image. I also work with patients experiencing mental illness, ranging from depression to psychotic disorders.

I regard it as a privilege to walk alongside you in your journey, helping you to examine your life, identify and embrace your strengths and limitations, while working through hindrances that get in the way of your living a fulfilling and meaningful life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Individuals, couples, families, children and groups are treated. Initially, I view the family through the individual with the goal of treating the family as the patient. I encourage the individual to accept the belief that we can do nothing constructive by ourselves. Everyone needs help. "No one can do anything that yields positive results alone."

As a clinician my background and experience are anchored and reflected in the lives of those I've had the privilege to serve in areas that include but are not limited to: Community -Based Mental Health Services for Children and Families, Foster Care, NYS Department of Corrections (female and male facilities), Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence, and Relational Discord. As a United States Marine Corps Vietnam Veteran, I hold a special interest in working with those who are currently serving, veterans and experiencing difficulties and challenges associated with their service.

In Home Mental Health Counseling PLLC is for families or individuals who have a difficult time accessing therapy, or who would benefit from having the counselor come to them. Due to illness, transportation problems, disability, finances, childcare issues, or a wide range of other reasons, it can be challenging to get to a therapist's office. With this in mind, my practice offers home-based therapy, just like how doctors make house calls. We offer counseling in the comfort of home. I serve Westchester County and New York City.

It takes a great deal of courage to take the first step towards seeking help. You are here for a reason. My goal is to help you figure out how to live a more meaningful, fulfilling, and happier life. I am a NYS licensed therapist with more than 15 years experience working with clients from diverse racial/ethnic, cultural backgrounds, and with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, relationship/family conflict, parenting challenges, career problems, identity, self-esteem, women's issues (pregnancy, domestic violence, postpartum depression), HIV, medical concerns, and everyday life stressors.

I aim to offer a pure experience and room for self awareness, motivation, thought modification and behavior change. I am a firm believer in providing therapeutic services in an authentic and genuine manner by remaining respectful to and knowledgeable of cultural differences.

I believe in using a tailored approach to assist with developing clear, attainable treatment goals instead of adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues. I have extensive experience working with adolescence and adults who present with challenges managing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, co-dependency, parenting, self esteem, addictions, psychological effects of disease management and much more. We are all on a journey of change and growth and I am here to take these steps with you. I am Licensed in New York and Connecticut.

The nurturing environment of a therapeutic relationship can deepen your understanding of yourself and teach you new ways to handle life's difficulties. I strive to be compassionate, non-judgmental, genuine and down-to-earth, so you can feel safe and comfortable sharing your deepest feelings. I am a therapist who has the keen ability to help you achieve your desired goals.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, angry, lost, or low in self-esteem? Are you dealing with the heartache or pain of past experiences that trigger negative emotions or behaviors? Are your relationships with your significant other, family, friends, or co-workers strained, or do you feel overwhelmed with handling problems? If you answered yes to any of these questions, it sounds like you need support during this time. You can rely on me to support you with overcoming every obstacle you are facing. Together, we'll figure out how things got to this point and I will help you achieve your goals at your own pace.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I'm here to support you on your journey towards personal growth and well-being. With years of experience in the field, I utilize a compassionate and collaborative approach to help individuals navigate life's challenges. Through a processing-oriented framework, we explore the underlying factors driving behaviors and work together to integrate effective coping skills. My aim is to empower you to lead a more aligned and fulfilling life.I specialize in guiding individuals towards fostering positive self-talk and cultivating self-compassion.

You aim for success and often achieve it! But somehow an empty feeling sometimes arises and the healthier, inner, emotional life you value feels just out of reach. Perhaps at times the relationships you hold dear are affected in ways you don't intend. Some things seem out of alignment for you despite the many things you do right, you're uncertain how to attain the inner well-being you crave and believe in. Perhaps a sense of purposelessness haunts you or you yearn for greater self-understanding, or the ability to feel more at ease within yourself. Give yourself the opportunity to be more fully heard on your thoughts and concerns.

When you seek the emotional growth that you deserve, you will experience change and improvements in your relationships. The therapeutic process will push you beyond the limits of your comfort; but at the end of the journey, you will experience growth, change in perspective, increase self-awareness and increase coping skills to improve the quality of your life. We are a private practice group that provides general psychotherapy treatment such as anxiety, depression and also specializes in women's maternal mental wellbeing such as postpartum, infertility and stillbirth. We are dedicated to restoring our client’s mental wellbeing.

Everyone has a story to tell however deep, raw and painful the story might be. The decision to seek an objective professional person to listen to that story is one of the most important decision anyone can make. The trust that potential patients will entrust in me is priceless.

I believe that sharing your thoughts and feelings with me in my safe and confidential office will help you to feel better. I have worked in the field for almost 30 years in crisis teams, mental health clinics, schools, domestic violence programs, and geriatric services. I am non-judgmental and happy to help you recover from crisis, bereavement (grief or loss), the stress of long-term debilitating illness, ongoing anxiety or fear, mood disorders, and school related issues.
