Male Therapists in East Hampton, NY

My ideal client is a person who wants to succeed in life, by becoming aware of their mind, body and spirit interactions and how to utilize this awareness in their intimate relationships. Their issues can be improving their self esteem, overcoming past traumas, and developing their emotional, intellectual and sexual connections with others. If you strive to have better relationships and/or safeguard your current relationship, I can offer you the understanding and techniques of how to do so. I can do this without years of therapy, in a short term focused way that addresses how to overcome struggles fast and effectively.

Therapy is education. Are you looking for more balance in your life? Are you unsettled about your place in the changing world?? Almost everyone is. If you want a safe space to talk about and learn from what you’re grappling with, you have found it at Hampton Ed-Space I have been a psychotherapist and a teacher for 35+ years. I believe that learning is ongoing and livelong. My work as a therapist and as a teacher is grounded in the belief that therapy, like school, is only meaningful and transformational when the setting is right for you. Education should not be about shame … nor should therapy.

My practice focuses on Marriage Counseling, Couples Therapy and Individual Therapy. If you are in a committed relationship and having problems my training and experience will help close the emotional and sexual distance between you. I am a former editor to the Ladies Home Journal column "Can This Marriage be Saved?" and the author of three books on marriage. In individual therapy problems that cause anxiety, self doubt and stress are addressed. I offer insights and strategies to resolve personal issues so that your life has an ease of being, feels free and full, and less of a struggle.

I am deeply curious about people, and love helping them discover unexplored parts of themselves. Seemingly simple questions like "What do I want from life and how do I go about getting it?" become less straightforward when we realize that the answers we've previously given are not sufficient. A more satisfying relationship with the world and with ourselves is possible, and I hope to help in making progress towards that goal.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, certified psychoanalyst and certified group psychotherapist practicing in New York for over twenty years. My style is interactive and direct. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, addiction/compulsive disorders, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.

If you're affected by daily stresses of life, significant issues related to depression, anxiety or interpersonal relationships, I am a New York licensed psychologist and certified psychoanalyst that will help you resolve these problems. Clients gain insight into what's troubling them so that they can manage their issues more effectively. I work in an intimate setting, situated in a comfortable environment overlooking a private garden. It is a safe and confidential space. I work with people who are having difficulty developing and or maintaining significant relationships, experiencing depression, anxiety, low self esteem, feelings of being unlovable, or "just getting by" rather than thriving.

Everyone encounters problems in their lives. Most of us, most of the time feel able to overcome them or weather the storm and find a way forward. Yet most of us, at some point face problems which feel overwhelming and for which we need outside help. Regardless of how severe or long-standing your problems are I am confident I can help. Learning new ways of being and adjusting how we take care of ourselves and our life can and should be empowering, positive, and uplifting.

I treat individuals and couples using both short and long term treatment techniques. There is a writers' saying: 'How can I know what I think until I hear what I say?' This applies to psychotherapy as well. Talking about your problems and concerns with a trained, empathic listener is often the best way to discover both your issues and their solutions. I use a great deal of humor and compassion in my work. Psychotherapy is particularly helpful in working with relationships, career issues and ambivalence in choices.

I devote myself to helping people people through life transitions such as relationship, divorce, anxiety, depression and career issues. I am very passionate about my work and devote all of my intellect, experience and caring to assist my clients. My work in relationships is at the core of my passion and I have developed an effective and solution oriented approach to relationship challenges.My new book is The Possibility Principle: How Quantum Physics Can Improve the Way You Think, Live and Love (Sounds True, Fall2017).

I offer couples counseling and individual psychotherapy, and use a great deal of humor and compassion in my work. I work psychoanalytically (seeking unconscious motivations) and cognitively, looking at present issues and challenges. This means that I utilize both short-term AND long-term therapeutic methodologies. I specialize in working with people who are depressed, anxious, suffering from sexual or relationship issues, daunted by the problems they face, or who find themselves creatively blocked, or not living up to their potential in their vocation, or who wish to guide their careers to new heights and new directions.

My goal as a psychologist is to help you feel better, quickly, applying proven therapeutic methods in a warm and caring atmosphere. I am solution oriented so you will not spend years in therapy. Most patients are in treatment for a few months. At the same time, I work to produce long-term, sustainable change in my patients. I help my clients progress toward their goals in a warm, supportive and affirming environment. Just as each person's needs, experiences, and strengths are unique, I tailor my services to each individual and help uncover past and present factors that impact functioning.

I have over 30 years of experience treating people coping with life changes. These include issues around relationships, loss, loneliness, parenting, divorce, job change, caring for a loved one, chronic illness, and sleep disorders. I work with clients to guide them in identifying new purpose, managing anxieties and depression, and to support them in achieving personal balance.

Having a confidential place to explore what is causing imbalance or stress in one's life is the starting place. Exploring one's emotional and psychological process will open the path to freeing inner turmoil, indecision and personal struggle, while also finding solutions for better communication within relationships and navigating one's life path and career. Psychotherapy enables you to break free of repetitive patterns that prevent happiness. Finding one's identity and purpose in life is an ongoing question even after one is 50 years old. It is okay to question, review and reinvent without having to stop the ship.
