Therapists in 10011

Psychotherapy is, most honestly, a very remarkable and often surprising kind of 'conversation.' The distinction being that when we have a 'conversation,' we only know where it will begin, but not where it will end. The 'getting there,' the movement toward 'the end,' is often a thought-provoking, pleasurable, funny, sad, profound experience that changes people in wholly positive ways. When therapist and patient develop a good working relationship, transformative things can happen. My work centers around creating a serious, useful, and private space to begin exploring the depths of what causes you to suffer, or feel misunderstood.

You are about to take your first step forward toward growth, change and improving the quality of your life. Your decision to start therapy is a commitment to yourself. By exploring both the past and the present, you will recognize life patterns and dynamics which affect your relationships, career, and overall emotional and physical well-being. I believe each person is unique and do not utilize a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Rather, we will work collaboratively to create a safe, supportive environment that encourages honesty, authenticity, connection and directness. Together we establish the direction and pace of our work.

I am an EDMR trained therapist and work with adolescents and adults struggling with everything from depression to relationship issues to eating disorders. I have a particular expertise in addiction treatment: both individuals struggling with substance abuse and their family members and loved ones. In addition, as a former corporate attorney, I bring a personal familiarity to questions of career transitions and identity. I graduated from Dartmouth College, received my MSW from Yeshiva University and my JD from the NYU School of Law. I completed my post-graduate training at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies.

Hi my name is Rob York, I am the clinical director of PMA Mental Health Counseling. We are located in the Flatiron District of NY and we are now doing TeleHealth video sessions. PMA psychotherapists, associate clinicians, and advanced clinical interns provide counseling services including Individual, Couples, Family and Group Therapy, in addition to Workshops and Seminars addressing a variety of topics.

I try to help patients discover those aspects of themselves, their partner, or relationship, enabling them to address their issue, moving to the next phase more satisfyingly. I do not bring any prior ideas or thoughts about the best outcome, but let my patient(s) guide the treatment. Working with someone means being available to the sort of dialogue that will be helpful. Some want to discuss a specific issue; with others, a larger pattern is revealed through our interactions. My adapting to the relationship, with the client not having to fit my style, is a particular strength of mine.

It is my belief that seeking help is a courageous step that should be commended. Therapy offers us an opportunity to get to know ourselves, and provides a safe and comfortable space to think about the ways we can make our lives better. In this space, we come to understand the deeper meanings of the problems we face, gain the emotional tools to solve these problems, and become more confident in the decisions we make. Therapy can help to slow life down, and helps us find a place in it that fits who we are.

Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well. I work with individuals and couples, providing a warm, safe, confidential environment where I will listen carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues you are struggling with--both in terms of how they affect your current life and in terms of how they became issues in the first place.

I believe growth occurs in an atmosphere of respect, compassion, and a belief in the human capacity for healing and change. With this belief, trust, and a collaborative effort, we work together to get "un-stuck" and move towards the resolution of life challenges. My approach to therapy emphasizes insight, self-awareness, and empowerment for the promotion of a more integrated self.

If you're affected by daily stresses of life, significant issues related to depression, anxiety or interpersonal relationships, I am a New York licensed psychologist and certified psychoanalyst that will help you resolve these problems. Clients gain insight into what's troubling them so that they can manage their issues more effectively. I work in an intimate setting, situated in a comfortable environment overlooking a private garden. It is a safe and confidential space. I work with people who are having difficulty developing and or maintaining significant relationships, experiencing depression, anxiety, low self esteem, feelings of being unlovable, or "just getting by" rather than thriving.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist seeing clients at my private practice in Manhattan. For the past 14 years, I have worked with individuals and couples unsatisfied with their current situation and wanting more from life - more happiness, connection, and success. Though I am trained in providing long-term psychotherapy, I have adapted my techniques to maximize the results of shorter-term treatment. While many clients want the intensive experience of longer-term treatment, I recognize that this is not always possible due to the constraints of time and money.

Sometimes people seek therapy because of painful situations, or they're unclear about which path to take. Sometimes they're trying to overcome the effects of a difficult childhood. And sometimes they have a more biological problem - ADD, depression, mood swings - and want to lead a rich and satisfying life despite these problems. I will help you to figure out the source of your problems, and find solutions. For twenty-four years I've worked with a wide range of patients with a variety of issues. I've taught Psychology at Smith College, and graduate students and candidates at the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Study Center.

Through careful listening and an empathic, honest approach I can help you feel better about yourself and your life. You may feel stuck in a job or relationship. You may want more from life but not know how to get it. You may be struggling with with the difficulties of parenthood or marriage. I can help with artistic, creative, or intellectual struggles, body issues, sexual problems, substance issues, imbalances of life and work, impulse control, past trauma, or even just a general lack of inspiration or motivation in life.

As a trained psychotherapist with over 25 years of clinical, supervisory and teaching experience, I have learned that we all suffer from common problems in living -- in love and in work. But the solutions that will work for each of us are as unique as we are. I have had extensive training in a variety of different approaches. We will find what works best for you!

Psychotherapy lets people be their most 'authentic' selves and live at their highest potential; it also helps them understand barriers to optimal living. Expecting that you have all the answers is not realistic, and entering therapy is a helpful step to deepening understanding, resolving problematic relational patterns and simply making changes. Also,Therapy need not be a 'lifelong process'. I have a proven track record working with people achieving results. My treatment approach combines a Relational psychodynamic frame with goal-focused techniques. I tend to work very interactively with clients relationally, while also allowing abundant space for clients their own insights and self-reflection.

As a therapist who believes there is not just "one way" to do treatment, I use an integrative approach to helping my patients. I am a practitioner with a unique perspective having a background ranging from business to mental health. Counseling and psychotherapy are 'teamwork' approaches to problem solving that should be as unique as the person seeking help.

In my practice you will find a safe, non-judgemental place where you can stop and take stock of your life. Somewhat like a shelter when you feel stuck and need to find a way out. I work with people with issues that are very specific - a relationship/job problem, repetitive thoughts and rituals. As well as with people with problems that feel deeply perplexing - a vague and sometimes acute feeling something is wrong in their life. In either case, I can help you overcome the emotional challenge you face now and find a better footing to tackle whatever you might encounter to live a happier, more fulfilled life.

I am a psychologist with a diverse practice. I work with individuals, couples, adolescents and families, and conduct a variety of psychotherapy groups. My style is informal, supportive and interactive. I have extensive experience working with issues related to addictive and compulsive behavior problems, relationship issues, identity issues, and many other areas of clinical concern. My first aim is to establish a mutually comfortable rapport to provide an atmosphere of openness and to make self exploration an experience that is satisfying and immediately helpful in both the short and long term.

Is life in a big city wearing on you or has there been a sudden change in your life? Maybe you are struggling to find meaning and purpose. Is there someone important in your life with whom you're having trouble connecting? In a fast-paced society it can be difficult to find understanding. Whatever the concern, having access to someone to talk with about these human experiences is important for your well-being. Emphasizing resilience, Michael can help you recognize your strengths that may feel mired by life's stresses.
