I work with individuals, couples and families. I have a specialty in short-term couple counseling and relationship dilemmas, with a particular focus on communication skills. I also do co-parenting counseling in order to help keep the peace and raise happy children. My goal is for us to work together in a concrete and expedient fashion in order to seek rapid change from confusion to clarity. Although life can be complicated and stressful, it can also be simplified. My training includes family systems which means that I see our lives through the lens of many filters and influences.

I want to empower my clients to successfully overcome their personal challenges and lead happier lives. Many of my clients struggle with depression and anxiety and are pleased to discover the very real benefits of individual therapy. Other clients face family problems, relationship issues, or struggle with substance abuse. My clients find it beneficial to meet with an objective mental health professional with compassion, experience and expertise.

Hi, I'm Dr. Allegra Borghese. I'm passionate about helping people connect to their innate resources for healing and making meaning. Through a warm and committed therapeutic alliance, I foster awareness and growth in children, adolescents, and adults to overcome life's challenges. In addition to my doctorate from Fordham University, my training includes work in psychiatric hospitals, VA hospitals, addiction and eating disorder facilities, college counseling centers, and communities clinics.

Looking to feel happier or more satisfied in one or more areas in your life? Many people go on through their daily routines while ignoring self-defeating behaviors and finding little happiness or satisfaction in their life or in their relationships. Together, let's examine the choices you have made or failed to make. Most likely, you need to make some changes. Become productive, healthier and live a more enjoyable life.

Are you living with depression, bipolar, anxiety and/or panic attacks? Do you struggle dealing with the symptoms and have tried other treatment approaches and nothing seems to help? I will help you feel at ease during your therapy session to talk about your struggles and learn techniques to improve your quality of life. I specialize in working with adults (ages 18+) in the treatment of ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety disorders (including panic disorder, phobias, generalized anxiety disorder, and social anxiety disorder) and trauma therapy for PTSD.

Are you feeling fulfilled in life? Struggling with daily or long term stressors? Feeling depressed or anxious? Having difficulty expressing your thoughts and feelings? This is your opportunity to begin your journey towards growth and change. Meeting goals can exceed your own expectations, often leading to overcoming barriers you have been challenged with.

The idea of therapy can sometimes be overwhelming, even more overwhelming then what lead you to search for a therapist in the first place. The truth is, however, that therapy can be whatever you need it to be. Whether something as big as a life transition or something as small as a series of bad days, the therapeutic relationship can be a tool for examining, venting, learning, or guiding. It is a nonjudgmental space where you can bring anything on your mind and find the tailor-made support you need to move through and forward. My goal is to provide a comfortable environment and dedicated time for clients to hone in on themselves.
