Child Therapists in Dobbs Ferry, NY
I treat children, adolescents, adults, and couples.
Finding the right therapist, where you feel a sense of connection, is the first step in a successful treatment. Whether you are unsettled, experiencing a life transition, or briefly needing a professional to speak with, together, we will look at what is difficult and what you would like to change. This is a unique opportunity to see what has stood in the way of your personal satisfaction. Our work is confidential and I am non-judgmental. Most people who start psychotherapy find it very useful and gain valuable insights which help them fulfill their potential and enrich their lives.

My practice includes couples and individuals (adults, teens and children).
Finding a therapist and feeling comfortable with that person is a very important aspect of getting started. I like to think of therapy as a conversation at the same time knowing that you have goals for your life that will be the focus of our work. I take a very humanistic and interpersonal approach to my practice, which seems to put people at ease.

When I work with a child or adolescent, parent involvement is essential.
The decision to begin therapy for yourself or your child can be difficult and often follows attempts to manage challenging life circumstances independently. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which clients are encouraged to explore thoughts, feelings and behaviors in a supportive, nonjudgmental, and compassionate setting. I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience in Child, Adolescent, Adult, and Family Psychotherapy, Parent Consultation, Couples Therapy, and Special Education and 504 Plan Consultation.

I work with children and adults using an eclectic counseling approach.
As a Counselor Educator/Counseling Psychologist I believe that everyone possesses strengths and has the capacity to learn and achieve happiness. However, when negative beliefs about one's self and/or others show up they can lead to interference in one's ability to manage relationships, school, career, etc. This can lead to feelings of self-doubt, confusion, hopelessness, anxiety and depression. Counseling is a process that can help you get on track to where you want to be.

I enjoy working with individuals and couples across the life cycle: young adults dealing with anxiety, self-esteem issues or relationship stress in these uncertain times; couples long married and looking to enhance their relationship; and 'baby boomers' facing their own transitions while being 'sandwiched' between the needs of adult children and aging parents. I believe in our capacity for personal growth individually and in our closest relationships throughout life. In a safe, confidential environment you are invited to engage in the empowering process of therapy. My therapeutic style is warm, empathic and interactive.

Having training in stress management, I treat individuals who have been traumatized: either as children in a dysfunctional family, exposed to substance abuse or emotional or physical abuse; or as adults following emotional stresses such as accidents or physical attacks (PTSD).
People are best treated in a relaxed, comfortable environment with a knowledgeable and caring therapist. I am a well-trained, experienced psychotherapist with a prior background in nursing. My nursing training has given me not only a dedication to caring for patients but also a working knowledge of different medical problems and how they can seriously disrupt a person's life. In treating my patients, I have expertise and training in a number of different approaches, including individual, family, and couples therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
These skills help my patients maximize their strengths.

As a neuropsychologist, I am trained to use comprehensive evaluations to help my clients understand their individual strengths and weaknesses, help guide interventions, and also help parents advocate for their children when the school does not understand the child's more subtle learning or attention problems.
Deciding to begin therapy can be a turning point in your life. I work with children, adolescents and adults using supportive and insight-oriented psychotherapy for issues related to adjustment and stress (e.g. anxiety, depression) as well as specializing in conditions that affect the brain (e.g. learning disorders, ADHD, brain injury, memory problems). As a clinical psychologist and a neuropsychologist, I have specialized dual training in brain behavior relationships and take a psychodynamic approach when working with clients therapeutically. I also integrate cognitive behavioral techniques to help my clients meet their treatment goals.

In my practice I work with adolescents and adults. I often help adolescents and young adults grapple with the personal challenges, anxiety or depression that are making it difficult to move forward at a time when there are so many important choices to make. My clients may be choosing a college, a career path, a relationship, or making other complex decisions, while also trying to become independent of their parents. I also work with adults to help them with what may be interfering in their ability to feel satisfied and content, or to make changes in their lives, work or relationships.

I practice in both NYC and Dobbs Ferry; in person and virtually (depending on the day we meet). I draw on my clinical, activist and legal backgrounds. I work primarily with individuals and couples and in that work, I draw on Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), for which I have been trained. I also draw on my extensive expertise in working with trauma and attachment. I incorporate sensory or body-based modalities as we go and when relevant, I create room to explore how our political culture impacts our felt sense of well-being. I am an active presence in the room and I use both humor and authentic connection.

As a therapist, I start with the basic assumption that we all have a fundamental impulse for growth and well-being. Sometimes we need resources, guidance, and someone with expertise to rediscover this. In my practice I am looking to engage clients to gain insight, discover motivation, and hone emotional skills. I am interested in providing the most conducive setting for people to cultivate their innate creativity, intelligence, and courage in navigating anxiety, depression, and the range life’s challenges.
