Gambling Therapists in Bellmore, NY

In my 25 years of practice I have worked with, and helped, hundreds of people from different social and economic backgrounds. The commonality I have found in working with all of these people is that they come into therapy with the strong desire to talk and connect with someone who is accepting and not judgmental of them. I provide this atmosphere with the people who come in to see me, as well as provide them with competent therapeutic guidance.

I'm a fully licensed professional who, during a successful career directing programs on Long Island and Queens has moved completely into private practice. I continue to update my knowledge. I am compassionate, honest and want to provide you with the tools necessary to overcome any issue, whether from your family of origin, current relationships or work/school related. I offer guidance and healing, teaching you skills necessary to meet the challenges we face in life, from anxiety, depression, alcohol/substance abuse or religious/spiritual conflicts. I treat the whole person (not just the symptoms) and provide practical problem solving and coping methods .

Sometimes all that stands in the way of your happiness and peace of mind is your own thoughts. It's remarkable how our thoughts work against us creating anxiety, depression, and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck. The good news is that having the happiness you want and deserve is actually within your control. Whether it is getting rid of your fear, understanding why you are so sad, dreaming of a healthier relationship, or just trying to figure out what will actually make you happy, I am here to help you learn how to take control of your life.

My goal as a counselor is to provide clients with a safe space to share their concerns, struggles, and difficulties, and work towards goals of happiness, stability, and serenity.
