Therapists in New York

Being a parent is one of the most humbling roles we will have; humbling in every sense of the word. Parents experience both highs and low: immense love, disappointment, complete satisfaction and pride, anger/frustration, feelings of hopelessness, feelings of competence. It can be a rollercoaster and your child didn’t come with an instruction manual. Helping our kids thrive and keeping them safe, healthy, and motivated in this world can feel like a problem without solutions. If you are struggling with or have questions about your child’s behavior and/or mental health concerns and would like support, please give me a call or email.

Healing can happen with the courage to understand one’s own life story. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey toward prioritizing emotional well-being, promoting healthier behaviors and routines, and fostering self-compassion. This journey often includes examining the dynamic challenges that impact our relationships.

Most importantly, I prioritize doing this work in a warm and supportive environment.

Life stress? Relationship stress? Anxiety? Depression? There are various reasons why people choose to enter therapy. For some, the choice to see a therapist emerges slowly as they recognize their ability to function in life is either not where they want it to be or is deteriorating. Their coping mechanisms begin to breakdown as they become overwhelmed with negative emotions. Others may seek therapy from a more positive place and might be more interested in self-exploration. Our developmental and life experiences may include traumatic memories. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) I can help you to process and heal.
