Therapists for Teens in 10706

If you struggle with frequent "what if" thoughts, intrusive thoughts, or feeling like you are always trying to manage or control your anxiety, I want you to know that relief is possible. I specialize in working with teens and adults with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic attacks, procrastination, and high-pressure academic or occupational environments. My guess is that if you struggle with these, you have been working very hard to feel better. I would love to work with you to develop new, evidence-backed strategies to respond to your anxiety and find relief.

I am a NY licensed clinical social worker, business attorney and Buddhist practitioner, with more than 30 years' experience. With a holistic perspective, I use mindfulness, meditation, CBT, DBT and integrative therapies to help you be proactive rather than reactive. I have formal training in mediation, contracts, divorce, family conflict, couples, men's transitions, adolescent development, negotiation and anger management. I have additional training in win-win business structures and entrepreneurial matters, family business conflict, depression, anxiety and the stresses of work, family and life. Hours are flexible

Words are very powerful, and the way we think about life and the events of the day are crucial to our well-being. Everything starts from inside the brain. With the right thought process and the proper skills to cope when life gets tough, big changes can happen. This is the foundation of my career and what we teach to my clients. From our work with trauma victims to assisting new moms who are struggling with their recent life transition, we have learned the solution to achieving a happy life starts from within.

"We can talk it out". I do believe in the talking cure. Once you've shared your problem with me the burden will not be all on you. Life is not easy but having healthy relationships make it all worthwhile. Feeling alone is overwhelming and not necessary when you can get support from your therapist. Let me help you feel better about yourself. Once you feel stronger you will be more confident in your relationships. You cannot change anyone but yourself. I can help you make changes in life that will promote satisfying changes in your relationships

Are there areas where you feel stuck? Are there things you want for yourself that feel unattainable? Do you feel misunderstood by most of the people in your life? Have relationships become difficult to manage? As we work together, I will be there to listen and accept different parts of yourself. You will get to know yourself better. We will begin to uncover what is getting in the way.

People are best treated in a relaxed, comfortable environment with a knowledgeable and caring therapist. I am a well-trained, experienced psychotherapist with a prior background in nursing. My nursing training has given me not only a dedication to caring for patients but also a working knowledge of different medical problems and how they can seriously disrupt a person's life. In treating my patients, I have expertise and training in a number of different approaches, including individual, family, and couples therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These skills help my patients maximize their strengths.

In a caring home-office I offer supportive, practical, goal-oriented, cognitive behavioral (CBT) and dialectical behavioral (DBT) psychotherapy for accepting and processing what's past and embracing what's next with wisdom and ease. With 25+ years of experience in areas such as: infertility, cancer, health, stress, relationships, divorce mediation, family therapy, meditation and yoga, depression/anxiety and wellness, work/life balance, I have a strong understanding life's transitions, especially with teens, young adults and families. My hours are flexible. The first appointment will be helpful in understanding the client's history and desires and determining if the rapport is comfortable.

I am sure that finding a therapist at this moment is difficult for you. One wants to choose a therapist who has just the right sensibility. Having been in practice for 30 years has taught me to be present and listen carefully to your needs. As a Family Therapist I think about all the elements that influence and impact your life, your work, your family and your friends. As a Systemic Thinker I know that your attachment to others and your interpersonal skills determine how you feel. I hope you will consider this as you search for a new therapist.

A clinical psychologist with experience in both hospital settings and private practice, I develop a compassionate and non-judgmental rapport with people. The course of treatment is never doctrinaire or pre-determined, but dependent on the patient's temperament, life history and goals. If a patient is seeking treatment that is more ruminative and exploratory: that's fine. If a patient feels that an active and problem solving therapy holds promise, that's fine too. The essential thread, across any particular approach, is to link the narrative of a patient's life to behavioral patterns and improved choices, which reduces anxiety and heightens fulfillment.

Finding a therapist and feeling comfortable with that person is a very important aspect of getting started. I like to think of therapy as a conversation at the same time knowing that you have goals for your life that will be the focus of our work. I take a very humanistic and interpersonal approach to my practice, which seems to put people at ease.

I have enjoyed working with children and adults for over 20 years in clinical and educational settings, including as a faculty member in pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. My therapy sessions respect the unique experience of each family member and help facilitate insight and provide strategies leading to positive change. I work with children and teens with anxiety, social and academic challenges and difficulties with emotion regulation using talk therapy, play therapy, family therapy, and child-parent psychotherapy. I am also a certified trainer in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy.

It must be overwhelming to see all these names. How to choose? And decisions tend to be harder when you're not feeling at your best. My suggestion: see who you're drawn to, then have a consultation with two or three people. It's so important to find the right match. Most good therapy takes place in the connection between patient and therapist. You need to feel you can share who you really are with one of us. Therapy is about emotional honesty, with yourself and others. Easy to say, harder to do. But it's worth the work.

Welcome to my practice. I believe that reaching out for help is a brave first step in the process of improving your life. I have been working with adults, adolescents and children for over 20 years Some of the the problems I treat are difficulties with mood regulation, anxiety, depression, reproductive issues, loss, relationship issues, school difficulties, sibling issues and parent-child struggles.

Are you a parent, parent-to-be, educator, helping professional, or other kind of leader or caretaker looking for a place to feel heard, explore healthy boundaries, and reduce compassion burnout? Drawing from holistic modalities, I'll support you to build self-compassion and inner safety through dialogue, mindfulness, and education. If you're an expectant parent, we can explore this transformative journey together. I also work with children and teens as a social-emotional mentor. As a coach, I don't diagnose or treat psychiatric conditions, though I'm happy to work alongside a licensed practitioner to offer additional support.

Have you been feeling anxious or depressed? Lacking motivation to take the steps to feel better? Having difficulty handling relationships with family members?

If you feel stuck, hope for more meaning, vitality, or joy in relationships or work, I invite you to contact me.

Discovery of new possibilities in both small and large matters brings relief from suffering. I'll listen intently, ask questions that make you think, help you to safely sort out your feelings, and work very hard to deserve your trust.

Beginning therapy is a big deal. Talking about oneself to someone you’ve never met before can be daunting. Will you be judged? Given advice you didn’t ask for? Not given feedback you really need? You’ve probably been grappling with the issues that prompted you to make the appointment for some time, and may feel badly that you couldn’t figure it out yourself. In that first session I’ll be listening to understand what’s the matter but also how you’re experiencing the problem. We may need to work together to shift self-criticism and judgment to curiosity and compassion so that you can mobilize your inner strengths.
