Forensic Psychology Therapists in New York
When learning difficulties, and/or emotional/behavioral issues negatively impact social, academic, or work performance, it may signal the need for formal psychological testing. I conduct the following types of assessments, including but not limited to: Giftedness, Learning Disorders, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, and Testing for Accommodations (e.g., Extended Time). I have over 25 years experience performing psychological evaluations in many different settings, including schools (elementary, middle, high school, college), inpatient/outpatient psychiatric clinics, forensic settings, and in my private practice.

In my many years of advanced study and clinical work I have developed a practical, solution-oriented approach to mental health treatment. I believe that no one treatment model or therapeutic approach works for everyone. My extensive experience and rigorous training have enabled me to integrate numerous approaches to tailor treatments to the needs of each client's unique experiences and circumstances. I blend numerous therapeutic models and approaches- or stick to just one- depending on the person I am working with and the goals they have for our work together.

Today’s world can seem overwhelming and exhausting to many of us. Sometimes, even getting out of bed seems like a chore. Anxiety can feel like it has a vice grip on your life. Imagine if you didn’t have to feel this way. It is possible. I have a history of working with individuals that struggle with addictions, people in the criminal justice system, and those who suffer from anxiety, depression, PTSD, c-PTSD, eating disorders, mood disorders, the LGBTQIA population, and couples struggling in their relationships. The therapies I offer focus on helping to alleviate the negative symptoms that can come with these battles.

In 30+ years of experience, I've learned to tailor my treatment to the needs of clients. However, my preferred method of helping is through insight. Even people who feel they know themselves well often have blind spots that keep them trapped in unhappy ways of living. Over 2000 years ago, Socrates advised: "Know thyself." Human nature is essentially the same today as then; the advice holds up well. I will help you to know yourself in a way that helps to free you from current difficulties and lifelong patterns of thinking and feeling that have not served you well.

My primary focus with my patients, as a psychologist, is to work with them to identify those things causing stress, difficulty, and discourse; then work alongside them to restore health, balance, and wellness. My goal is for patients to leave feeling more empowered, confident, and insightful.

My practice focuses on: ·Psychotherapy for individuals across the life span (children, adolescents and adults), as well as for families and couples. As a therapist, I seeks to help individuals bring meaning, words and expression to their experiences that resist easy understanding. I work collaboratively to create a language for unexamined feelings and to create a space and time for their exploration, reflection and examination. ·Comprehensive neuropsychological, psychodiagnostic, educational and psychological evaluations for children (5 and up), adolescents and adults. This process serves to highlight strengths as well as clarify whether there are any learning/cognitive and/or psychological issues.

I have experience treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, personality disorders and more. I trained using the cognitive-behavioral approach but have incorporated elements of other approaches in order to develop a comprehensive therapeutic style. I have provided counseling for people from all walks of life. I practice with cultural humility meaning I aim to fully understand all the facets of one’s identity and how they interact with the world around them. All clients may have their own stories but they all work towards a similar goal: to lead a happier and healthier life. We will work together to get to that point.

My primary focus of therapeutic services is to provide a conducive, safe, and confidential format that will ensure personal growth. Enabling the individual to regain functional capabilities which is the ultimate goal. In order to regain functionality and growth individuals in therapeutic settings may have to discuss pleasant/unpleasant aspects of their lives and may experience uncomfortable feelings such as anxiety, fear, shame, guilt, hatred, anger, and frustration. However, through counseling, clients learn how to appreciate themselves, make better decisions and become more open about themselves and the world they live in.

Stress comes in many shades, regardless of what we face, with no discrepancies of importance, changing how we feel begins with changing our perspective. I aim to guide you through these life challenges and rebuild the mindset that these negative encounters have influenced.

Did you move to NY to succeed but you are not where you thought you would be? Do you often question your career choices and can’t seem to find the best “next step”? Do you catch yourself criticizing your life on a daily basis? Whether you are an immigrant or simply relocating from another state, Gotham inevitably captures you. I know that it sounds cliché but the energy of the city is present in every sector. And you will soon realize, if you have not already, that when you work and/or reside in an environment surrounded by thousands of talented people your desire to succeed becomes even greater.
