IT IS NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE TO AVOID THE STORMS OF LIFE, BUT YOU CAN LEARN TO DANCE IN THE RAIN. Do your problems seem overwhelming? Is conflict in your relationship making you unhappy? Do painful childhood memories keep surfacing? Anger can ruin your relationship and get you in trouble with the law. Anxiety and depression can prevent you from enjoying life to the fullest. Holidays can bring back unhappy memories or be a source of stress and conflict. Loneliness and isolation feel worse during these times. Self medication with alcohol, drugs or other addictions that are used to dull the pain only make it worse.

Therapy is a space to feel safe in your pain while gaining awareness and learning strategies to build a meaningful life. Are you feeling overwhelmed and under resourced? Does it feel like you can’t get your feet under you? Are you struggling with feeling alone and isolated? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are in the right place. While suffering is inevitable, there is a path forward. It is true that the work is up to you, but there is no reason to do it alone. Your emotions are yours – and by virtue of being emotions, they are coming from a valid and worthwhile place.

I believe in compassion, hope and spirituality as the driving forces in my practice. It is through these three elements that an individual finds their own truths and gains insight into their own lives. This is the essence of my practice along with learning tools to help one gain control over their issues rather than be controlled by them.

The coolest thing about art therapy is that it's uniquely accessible. People of any age, ability, and social background can benefit from this approach. I say that because I whole-heartedly believe people are born curious, creative, and playful. It's as natural as the breath.

I help people because I make it possible for them to bring their issues and concerns into the therapy session in order to resolve these problems in the treatment. Whatever we accomplish in this task carries over to the client's outside life and they become more successful. I am able to do this because of my many years of supervision with some of the top therapists in the New York area. I also train other therapists and I was cited as a supervisor of excellence by the California Psychological Association.

Beginning therapy, especially for the first time, can feel like an intimidating task. I understand that firsthand. The hardest step is acknowledging you need extra support and there is no shame in that, only strength. No matter what the presenting issue(s) is, we can work together to unpack it and focus on what brought you here, what you need out of therapy and what your ultimate goal is. I view the mind and body as one and in order to best care for ourselves, we need to nurture and understand both. Often times, our environment or situations happening in our life can derail this and that's where therapy can provide a consistency.

Veterans Therapists
Why is mental health important for veterans and the military?
Veterans are more likely to face mental health challenges than the general public, and such mental health challenges can make it difficult for them to navigate day-to-day life. Improved mental health can result in better interpersonal relationships, lower levels of stress, and decreased dependence on substances, such as drugs or alcohol, for many veterans. Addressing common mental health conditions can also help facilitate recovery from physical health challenges that are faced by many veterans, such as chronic pain, physical injury, or poor sleeping patterns. Therapists trained in working with veterans can help address these concerns and help improve veteran mental health.
How can veterans get access to mental health support?
There are many resources for veterans to get mental health support, including through the VA or through their primary care doctor. Many service personnel are eligible for free or reduced-cost mental health counseling through the VA, depending on their service history and current income. Veterans can also utilize online directories, such as Psychology Today, or nonprofit organization resources like the Wounded Warrior Project, to find a therapist or other healthcare professional that specializes in their specific mental health needs. Veterans may also benefit from community-based groups that facilitate social connection and/or address specific concerns, such as Alcoholics Anonymous.
What type of therapy is best for veterans?
Veterans may benefit from multiple types of therapy, depending on what mental health challenges they are facing. Veterans seeking therapy for anxiety or depression may benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which encourage clients to understand how their thought patterns influence their behavior. Veterans with PTSD may seek other more specialized forms of therapy to treat trauma symptoms, such as EMDR or exposure therapy. Many veterans and military personnel may also benefit from family or couples counseling to address the stress and adjustment challenges that can be associated with military life.
Can therapy for veterans help with trauma and PTSD?
Therapy can be highly effective in helping veterans with trauma and PTSD. Therapists specializing in veteran mental health often have extensive training and experience helping veterans navigate symptoms of trauma and can teach clients coping techniques to handle common symptoms associated with trauma and PTSD. Some therapists may use talk therapy as their primary approach, while others utilize more structured therapy modalities in sessions, such as EMDR. Veterans can try multiple therapy modalities to find the best fit for them. Therapists can also help make referrals or connect clients with available resources, such as VA benefits, to help address other life concerns.
