Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in 10023

I believe that the most important relationship we develop is with our inner self. People often get caught up in repetitive patterns that may hinder their work, love, or personal relationships caused by past traumas or disconnection from oneself. This may inhibit them from being able to live a fulfilling life. The process of getting in touch with often unknown aspects of oneself enables one to lead a fuller life. Lack of such a connection with our psychological center leads in varying degrees to emotional homelessness, emptiness in one's work, and personal relationships. In my publications I explore the notion of "inner home".

Reaching out is often the toughest step and it is very important (and can be rewarding) to find the right fit! Each individual has their own unique story and experiences and therefore deserving of an individualized approach to therapy. The therapeutic relationship should foster one's personal journey to self exploration and growth. My goal is to help you find your best fit and support you in your personal growth, healing, and self-empowering journey. My approach is often described as supportive, warm, empowering, challenging (when you need it), and humorous.

As a seasoned professional with over 24 years experience, I have helped many clients with feelings of anxiety, irritability, depression, anger as a result of trauma and complex trauma. I work with people to identify how they would like to improve their lives and help clients through the change process. Making a change can be overwhelming. Using strengths that you already have, we will accomplish your goals and make changes you desire. I am currently offering EMDR Intensives, which are half or full or multiple day EMDR sessions created just for you with you. I also am being trained In Somatic Experience which I use with clients.

Welcome! We all want to feel good, even great. Free from what makes us feel stuck. Sometimes we don’t and can struggle to get through our day. For a short time or what feels like forever. We try to feel better in whatever ways we can, but feeling better isn’t always getting better or more so, staying better, and being able to navigate what life hands us. My philosophy is very solution focused. It is for you to be empowered with solutions that you take with you, allowing you to decide how you react or feel, not the situation.

I work with individuals who find themselves stuck, or struggling with work, relationships, family, loss, and identity issues. Are you feeling anxious or depressed due to recent challenges in your life? Have you been struggling with self-confidence, purpose or direction in in our current times? Do you find yourself dealing with the difficulties of being part of a marginalized and/or stigmatized community? Starting therapy can be overwhelming and intimidating. However, it can also be the beginning of a self-exploration and discovery that leads to a more fulfilling, purposeful and balanced life.

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist who works with individuals in therapy, intensive therapy, and psychoanalysis.

Currently, I am a senior psychoanalytic candidate at PANY, the Psychoanalytic Association of New York affiliated with NYU School of Medicine, where I also co-teach in the Fellowship Program.

Do you wake up and dread the day? Avoid leaving your home due to worry? Feel uncomfortable in social situations? Are you feeling down, depressed, and hopeless? Overwhelmed with stress? If you answered yes to any of the above, I can help you! Together, we can overcome your struggles, mend relationships, increase your confidence, manage your stress, and build a life worth living.

You have struggled for so long to overcome your suffering and have tried various coping strategies – overeating, perhaps overdrinking, overworking, and numbing out. Maybe, you even tried individual therapy. Has any of this helped? Hopefully, your effort has sometimes taken the edge off your suffering, but you still feel ashamed and guilty while thinking, “What’s wrong with me?” Why can’t I stop feeling, thinking, and acting this way? You deserve credit for not giving up and keeping a glimmer of hope alive that change is possible despite not finding a solution to your pain and suffering. But something has to change.

Do you worry a lot, find yourself losing your temper or getting upset easily? Wonder why your relationships get stuck and can't figure out what's holding you back? Perhaps your goals have changed and you don't know how to reach them. Whether you are in crisis or just want to understand yourself better, I can help.

Are you looking for healthier relationships, more career success, or freedom from emotional stress? I will work closely with you to conquer what gets in the way of having the life you want. Understanding your problems and others can enhance your ability to genuinely connect to people and be open to love. Rethinking repetitive behaviors can help to rid you of frustrating patterns and discover new options. Gaining the emotional tools to steer your life with more intention can lead to achieving enduring change. Developing your ability to use your emotions to understand your thinking can encourage more flexibility, playfulness, and room for pleasure.
