Therapists in Smithtown, NY

One of the most challenging steps in the process of facilitating change is that in which the person realizes a change is needed. A client may seek my counseling services, specifically, for a number of reasons. In a broad sense, I provide psychotherapy to individuals who may be facing a stressful life event / change, who are struggling with depression or anxiety, or may be looking for assistance developing the coping skills necessary to succeed in their life. I also specialize in working with individuals suffering from anticipatory grief due to the impending loss of a loved one, caregiver burnout, and bereavement.

Are you feeling unhappy about your life at this point. often depression is masked with the use of alcohol, drugs or some other kind of compulsive behavior. I have over 30 years treating families, couples, and individuals with these problems. There is no need to continue unhappiness when help is available. Asking for help is the first step, take it now.

Therapy can have many benefits when you're ready for change and work with the right person. It can be difficult to manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, general life issues and more when trying to do this on your own.

My passion and interest is in people, their stories, their struggles and their triumphs. This has led me to my mission to help people create the life they have always wanted.
