Infidelity Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

Many clients are in search of deeper happiness and emotional resilience in their lives and relationships. Often, out of innocence, we look outside ourselves for fulfillment instead of inward, towards our own true hearts. For over 25 years I have worked with couples and individuals seeking a way out of isolation and emotional suffering towards greater joy. This is your time to be on the planet. If you struggle with self-defeating patterns and would like help shifting towards a more vibrant life, please call me for a free consultation.

I strive to create a space for you to freely explore whatever thoughts and feelings are on your mind, without fear of judgement or pressure. My style is warm and compassionate and I have a light hearted sense of humor which I interject into sessions when appropriate. I believe it is important to establish a collaborative relationship, and we will work together to help you to identify and reach your treatment goals. My practice focuses on helping individuals and families overcome the challenges of family conflict, parenting, anxiety, depression and major life changes. I specialize in working with children and families of divorce.

Are you having challenges in life transitions or managing stress? Are you experiencing a chronic medical condition and need support?

I have worked with children, adolescents and adults of diverse populations providing psychotherapy services.

Grounded in client-centered therapy, I aim to provide a safe space for optimal and holistic growth for my clients.

Have you always dreamt about becoming a mother? Is it what you imagined it to be? You were told that all mothers are happy and perfect. In truth, motherhood is an emotional, complicated and compelling journey from conception, pregnancy, delivery, and into postpartum. No one tells you how hard it can be to actually get pregnant. Others seem to get it so easily, yet you struggle. When you are pregnant, instead of feeling endless joy, you feel sad, scared, angry or anxious. After the baby comes, instead of feeling confident as a new mother, you wonder all the time, what if you aren’t the perfect mother?

There is great hope to be found in turning inward and opening up. The unique and specialized support of a therapist can benefit every individual, couple or family. Whether you are struggling with a major mood disorder, processing relationship issues or confronting life transitions, achieving inner balance is possible. Therapy provides a safe and healing space where you can recover and discover yourself, no matter what you experienced in life. Through dynamic and creative therapy, you can learn to clearly identify your needs and develop the cognitive, emotional and behavioral tools to respond effectively to whatever comes your way.

With an interactive, warm, and accepting approach I have been helping clients find healthy perceptions of themselves. No single approach is the right one for everyone, and so I have been trained in a range of modalities including motivational interviewing, CBT, and REBT.

I've been in practice for decades, helping adolescents, grown-ups, and couples during that time. People come to me with all kinds of issues, and we've worked closely together to find solutions, whether that involves learning new ways to look at relationship difficulties, or methods for regulating problematic emotions, to career-related struggles and just getting rid of bad habits. I have exceptional training and vast experience.

Does life feel overwhelming? Maybe it moves too quickly? Especially in New York City, there is so much to do and so little time in a day. Make our space your own; I am here to support you!

I am glad you are here. We often seek therapy when they feel stuck or struggling in life, uncertain how to free ourselves to continue the journey. Maybe you resort to problematic behaviors to cope. It's easy to become overwhelmed, especially for those dealing with sadness, anxiety, illness, relational problems, work stress, separation, life changes, parenting, and trauma. Therapy offers you the space to strengthen your self esteem, improve communication or intimacy in relationships, slow down emotional reactivity, or stop repeating self-destructive cycles so that you may express your true potential and have a more fulfilling life.

Everyone goes through periods in their lives when they feel stuck with work and/or love.

During these stressful times, they often lose their center, their sense of being grounded, and forget about the importance of personal care.

At times in life, we find ourselves overwhelmed; in states of persistent mental or emotional distress, stuck in patterns that no longer serve us, and questioning which path best serves us. With greater consciousness of our patterns of thought, feeling and behavior, we can develop the capacity to meet these moments with the wisdom of our whole selves. By connecting more fully to our emotions, we can access our innate healing process and move towards greater integration. In honoring your unique story, we can explore how life’s suffering may be pointing you towards greater wholeness and a life of meaning.

"No one is immune... No matter what precautions we take, no matter how well we put together a good life...something will inevitably ruin it. Human life is fatally fragile and subject to forces beyond our power to manage. Life is tragic." -T.

My goal is to help individuals navigate the difficulties they encounter in life, by guiding them as they develop strategies and skills that will enable them to live a more satisfying life.
