Male Therapists in Bethpage, NY

My clinical experience is in helping people holistically manage and improve a range of important areas: including personal and professional relationships, understanding one's self-image and identity, and managing emotions such as anger, depression, anxiety, grief, and stress. My therapeutic approach is earnest, flexible, and collaborative in nature. Whether it is learning new coping strategy, helping you connect to your feelings and thoughts, or making sense of something that seems confusing, my aim is to be a fellow traveler alongside you, curiously exploring and offering new perspectives to your experiences.

I'm an introverted husband, dad, sports fan, musician, gamer, brainstormer, Christian, and an intent listener who loves psychology and supporting people. My clients and I build rapport quickly and we are usually able to figure out the root causes of symptoms of general/social anxiety, anger, and depression within the first few sessions. Many of the focus areas that usually come up include negative thought patterns, stress management, enhancing relationships with friends and family, navigating life transitions, building self-esteem/confidence, developing healthier behaviors/reactions, and dealing with grief/loss.

I am a psychologist with a number of post-graduate specializations and certifications, though I also maintain a general practice. I have formal training, experience and certifications in hypnotherapy, which has been shown to be helpful with a wide-range of psychotherapy issues and modalities. I also have additional training and experience in addictive disorders, child and adolescent psychotherapy, and elder psychology. I endeavor to provide up to date, research-based procedures, integrating various modalities of treatment (e.g., cognitive-behavioral, systems, interpersonal)to facilitate time-efficient and significant improvement in social and emotional functioning for adults, children and adolescents, individuals, couples and families.

I prioritize the therapeutic alliance, working within each client’s comfort zone to foster a warm, non-judgmental environment. This sensitive approach is essential for making clients feel secure and truly understood, particularly when exploring complex issues related to identity, including sexual orientation, gender identity, and cultural or racial backgrounds. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients can feel safe to express themselves and explore their identities without fear.
