Therapists in 12603

I am unable to accept new clients at this time. Feel free to check back to this site in the coming months. WELCOME! As a psychologist with 35+ years experience and author of 12 books I specialize in marriage/relationship therapy, grief/depression, overcoming traumatic memories, and anxiety disorders, My practice is limited to working with adults only. (Check out my personal website www.paul-coleman.com.) While treatment time can vary, motivated clients often see results within a few sessions and the average number of sessions per client is about ten. EMDR treatment for PTSD is particularly effective in a very brief time.

At times, we just need someone to talk to outside of our daily lives. We find ourselves with problems that we may not be able to solve on our own. Sometimes, we need a safe space where we can open-up and gain perspective and confidence. Are you overburdened with caregiver fatigue? Caregivers of all kinds often have self-doubt, guilt and shame about asking for help. Many caregivers just don't know what the next steps should be. What changes would you like to see?

You DON'T have to struggle alone. What's more difficult than life's obstacles is dealing with them when you feel misunderstood, or have a lack of support. Here, at Inspired Counseling, we provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment to aide you in the healing process. You have taken a very brave first step to getting help, by reaching out. Now, let us meet you half way and teach you the skills and tools that you need to take back your power and live the life that you deserve. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist.

As an ABPP board certified neuropsychologist in the Hudson Valley, those in need of my assessment-evaluation services are children and adults challenged by learning difficulties, attentional deficits, memory problems, and pragmatic-social communication issues with underlying causes in neurological and/or environmental circumstances. In addition these individuals also unfortunately, but understandably, experience emotional distress associated with these difficulties. These difficulties may have had their onset in early development, through illness, as a result of injury, or developing in later adulthood. Their conditions usually impact major life roles in school, work, and relationships.

Are you feeling anxious, isolated, depressed after so long functioning in "pandemic mode"? Do you feel stuck, like your life is on repeat? Do you find yourself making the same choices that lead you to the same problems over and over? It's time to find out why you do this and how to break these patterns! I help people heal from painful life experiences and move towards a meaningful future filled with passion and purpose. When we work together, we'll explore your fears, anxieties, and traumas to uncover your inner negative voice that blocks you in life. We'll make a plan for you to take action and start living your best life.

Welcome! I am so glad that you are here. Life can be overwhelming at times with many bumps along the way. However, it can also be beautiful! I am passionate about working with adolescents and young adults as they navigate their way through the stressors of life including anxiety, stress, depression, and struggles with self-esteem. My therapeutic style encourages clients to develop a sense of autonomy through the use of an engaging, empathic, strength-based approach.

I value connection and relationship as the major foundation to the therapy process. I believe in collaborating with clients and empowering individuals to find their own answers. I also believe in transparency with my clients. I will lend my own personal perspective and experience with a particular situation, if I believe it will be helpful. I am here to provide additional support and to help you through life's obstacles. Life is stressful enough so I believe teaching clients to avoid turning pain into suffering is important through acceptance and mindfulness. I am looking forward to meeting you!

My ideal client is a young individual, perhaps navigating the intricacies of adolescence or the early challenges of youth. They find themselves grappling with emotional imbalances, interpersonal challenges, or stressors related to school or home environments. Their issues might encompass struggles with emotional regulation, difficulties in managing peer or familial relationships, or the daunting task of establishing a sense of identity in a world that can often seem overwhelming.

Are you feeling unhappy or even miserable? Are you struggling with managing or coping with the stressors that are overwhelming your life? Have you tried to feel better on your own and nothing seems to be working? If the answer is yes to any of these questions and you are willing to invest in yourself, I may be able to help. We will work together using evidence-based therapeutic interventions such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). More often than not, I find individuals view change or a transition as uncomfortable and scary.

“Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives.” Healing from trauma is a journey; a journey I would be honored to be on with you. My experience is working with children, adolescents and adults who may have suffered from a trauma in their life, such as physical, sexual or emotional abuse, domestic violence, chronic illnesses, etc. I also work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety and transitions in their lives. I work with moms in both pre- and postpartum, as well as throughout to work with the challenges that accompany motherhood.

Are you seeking relief for loss of a loved one? Do you feel deep in grief? Are you a stressed out caregiver? Coping with chronic illness? Processing feelings in a safe environment can improve your improve your sleep and help you find a feeling of security. I have an advanced certification in grief counseling and am a fellow in Thanatology, the study of death, dying and bereavement. Thanatology encompasses grief models and theories.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with nearly a decade of experience counseling teens and adults through their emotional health issues. I have specific training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I am comfortable treating individuals with a wide variety of issues using a professional, supportive, person-centered approach.

Each stage in our lives holds it's own unique challenges and rewards. Let me help you access your authentic self while healing past hurts and developing new, effective coping skills to deal with future obstacles and issues. You can expect to be treated in a calm, safe environment with respect and dignity. I fully understand that you are the expert in your life and that families come in all shapes and sizes. I value your unique situation and lifestyle. Couples can feel trusted and not singled out when at therapy.

I take a client centered approach in learning about areas of change you would like to create. My goal is to help guide you into these changes within a safe, empathetic and non-judgmental environment. Fostering a trusting relationship with each client can help to facilitate accountability and growth into a more satisfied life.

On this journey, you'll learn to manage strong feelings and understand your life better. I'm here to guide you toward happiness, aiding with sadness, worry, stress, and balancing work with various aspects of your life. Whether struggling with overthinking or finding yourself in life transitions, you'll gain strength and overcome challenges. Therapy provides a safe space to change habits and thoughts for lasting positive change. Your thoughts and feelings are important here; together, we'll improve your well-being and create a more satisfying life.

Psychotherapy should be collaborative, and able to adapt to the individual seeking treatment rather than demanding that the person fit some Procrustean bed of preconceived theory. My approach emphasizes individually tailored solutions that build on a person's strengths and makes creative use of their so-called weaknesses, i.e. it is competency based rather than pathology oriented. There is a strong effort to integrate mind, body, and spirit and to utilize both conscious and unconscious resources.

Open to helping clients searching for a safe place to explore what they want to get out of their life journey as well as a creative working space to deal with life's challenges with me as your guide to the direction you are looking to go. Client's who have the goals of better understanding their past selves to move forward to their future self. I want to advocate for others and empower them on their journey.

I often work with clients dealing with anxiety, grief, OCD, feelings of stuckness or dissatisfaction, and other issues that may require new ways of approaching themselves, others, and the world in which they live.

A seasoned Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist, I obtained my Master's in Clinical Social Work from the prestigious Fordham University's Advanced Standing Program, specializing in therapy for couples, individuals, and young people. I further honed my expertise with a postgraduate degree from the Albert Ellis Institute.
