Sexual Addiction Therapists in 10605

As a Licensed Psychologist I help adults with a variety of individual, relationship and family problems. Utilizing well researched and well accepted methods I evaluate and treat psychological, emotional, and behavioral problems including addictions, anxiety, depression, and stress.

With over a decade of experience, I've had the privilege of working in various treatment settings with a wide range of people. I'm dedicated to creating environments where people feel safe, supported, and motivated for change. My clinical work is rooted in evidence-based practices, ensuring that each session is effective and tailored to your situation. I understand the importance of working at a pace that is comfortable for you, while also providing gentle nudges to help you progress. My approach is warm, compassionate, and encouraging with a dose of humor.

Clients who seek my services are interested in making measurable quality of life changes. Emotional distress and conflict can create significant obstacles to psychological and overall well-being. Whether a child, an adolescent, adult, or family, conflict can lead to behavioral problems, abuse of alcohol or other substances, difficulty establishing and sustaining close relationships, and a loss of vision or purpose for one's life. Psychotherapy becomes the process from which a person uncovers conflict, explores barriers, identifies options, and pursues paths of change.

Are you or someone you love having difficulty adjusting to a life change? In my practice I treat adolescents, adults, couples, and families dealing with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, parenting, bullying, divorce, grief and loss, high-school-to-college transition and adjustment, marriage, infidelity, mid-life, career, sexual orientation and gender identity, HIV/AIDS.

In my years of practice I have had the opportunity to work with a broad range of people on a wide range of issues. The skills of the therapist, developed and refined over many years are of importance in the clinical setting. Helping clients access their emotional and cognitive processing is a significant component of the work. I work with individuals, couples and families who feel "stuck" to identify the underlying causes and work towards defining goals that will spell "relief". Collaboration and reinforcement are significant in the process in order to help achieve the goals that are established and help create change.

My background and experience are quite varied, including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, family systems, and neuropsychological perspectives. This allows me to approach each situation with a unique focus on the need of the individual or individuals involved, and to provide treatment tailored to those needs (rather than to narrow conceptualization on my part of what psychotherapy 'is'). I also frequently draw upon the practice of meditation in helping people cope with anxiety, depression, learning issues, impulsivity, addiction, and so on. My commitment is to helping people gain both self-understanding and the ability to make substantive changes in behavior.
