I am certified in trauma focused CBT.
You love your child, but raising them is a different story. They are falling behind in school, they are sneaking out, and they refuse to listen. There is chaos in the house and the arguments seem never ending. Respect is gone and the power struggle continues. Judgement and shame comes from friends and family members and you are at a loss of what to do because no matter what you've done, nothing seems to work. You must be overwhelmed and exhausted. Don't blame yourself for your child's out of control behavior!

TRAUMA focused therapist - Interactions with lover, friends, co-workers and family become hijacked by unmet needs that create anger, fear, confusion...leading to fights, shame, guilt, depression, self loathing and destructive behaviors. Wondering why...how come I keep making the same choices which end up as mistakes in relationships with family, in love, at work, with friends...with self. The Body Heals The Score, a ground breaking book which discusses 40+ years of research, suggests meditation as an intervention to break destructive patterns, resulting in a life worth living. Happiness IS possible. YES, it is possible.

As a therapist, I know that sometimes, you may just need someone to listen and walk through a difficult season in life with you. You may find yourself in need of a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings about dating, a significant relationship or a life transition. You may be coping with pain in ways that are self-destructive, or feeling "stuck", sad, and/or overwhelmed by worry. I offer understanding and caring, compassionate feedback. My goal is to help you tap into your own inner wisdom, so that you can heal, grow, and thrive- ultimately living a more fulfilling life.

Navigating relationships, conflict and attachment issues can be challenging. Coping with anxiety/depression, and confronting life's unexpected challenges can add to the overwhelm of daily life.

I am licensed in New York and California, and work exclusively with adults (individually, couples, and executives). My work is entirely evidenced-based and my approach is empathically direct and resolutely dedicated to your success.

A main focus of my therapy is joining clients in what they are going through. Therapeutic workbooks are great, but there is a big difference between opening up to a workbook versus opening up to a human being. When we open up to another person we make ourselves vulnerable. That is when true growth begins. I set out to try and help people deal with the core issues, as well as enhance their core strengths. When there is recovery in the core, the symptoms can be dealt with. Our problematic situations and behaviors are but a symptom. Website: jeremyharveymft.com
