Anger Management Therapists in East Northport, NY

You can feel better. I have been in private practice for 25 years and practiced for many more years in a variety of other settings including a psychiatric hospital. There, I did teaching, clinical supervision of psychologists, group and individual therapy, and forensic psychology. I am trained in, and use a variety of methods and philosophies in the field as I have found that flexibility in approaching the diverse people I see is necessary. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and self esteem. I have experience with substance abuse and anger issues, and well as with life adjustment problems.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming and finding the right therapist can be even harder. I’m here to help!

I approach therapy as a form of collaboration that can spark change. Whether you are looking to discover the best version of yourself or overcome a challenging experience, we can tailor our time to best meet your needs. Painful thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns can interfere with being able to experience contentment in life. These difficulties can prevent us from attaining our personal or professional goals and often start to damage our relationships with the ones we love. By understanding and becoming aware of your underlying beliefs and emotions, we can explore how to best move towards acceptance and change in your life.

“If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.” Eckhart Tolle. Growth is a process and therapy is a safe place to gain self awareness and learn new skills. I work with with anyone age of 11 or older, who is looking to gain perspective, growth, and develop healthier ways of coping with life's challenges. The primary focus of my practice and passion is working with LGBTQ+ youth and families. Professional affiliations include NASW and WPATH.

People often say, I don't know why I do that, referring to an unfavorable behavior. This is evidence of our unconscious. We are all products of our earliest emotional conditioning. That is fine, if your parents were wonderful, loving, and understanding. For the majority of people, there was some form of negligence and/or dysfunction that occurred due to the complexities of child rearing. We tend to push away what is good for us and seek what is familiar. Unconsciously, we will repeat negative relationship patterns unless addressed. We all are deserving and able to be the best version of ourselves.

Day to day challenges or unrepaired past hurts may cause anxiety, depression, or health issues, and can interfere with every aspect of your life. Infidelity, family discord or job issues may leave you feeling dissatisfied or trapped. I can help you develop a better understanding of yourself and others and learn more effective coping and communication skills. Doing so will help you address these issues and create more satisfying, mutually respectful relationships at work or home. These desired life changes may eventually reduce your level of stress and lead to an improved sense of emotional and physical well being.

Are you feeling that life is too difficult or stressful to face alone? My passion is helping you to feel supported, connected and understood.
