Gottman Method Therapists in Floral Park, NY

Do you find yourself feeling like you are never enough, no matter how hard you try? The pressure of showing up in every area of your life is making you anxious, frustrated, and burnt out. Do you wonder who you really are as a person, outside of your roles? Does your romantic relationship feel like a constant struggle and the only thing keeping you going is the nostalgia for what it used to be? I believe we would be a great fit if any of these resonate with you. I aim to go on this journey of self-exploration with you and create an individualized plan for us to focus on various areas of your life to identify and work on your goals.

Are you struggling with feelings of sadness or depression due to trauma or difficult life experiences? Perhaps you are dealing with overwhelming anxiety or difficulty in connecting in with your significant other? The core of treatment at Haven Counseling lies in the belief that happiness, resilience, and mental strength are within reach for every one of us. We work with clients to explore the roadblocks in reaching their goals: emotional, relational, vocational or otherwise. We offer services for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to overcome challenges related to mental health concerns, relationships, and trauma.

My ideal client would be willing to work with me systemically, meaning someone willing to look beyond themselves and think, “Why is this happening?” instead of just thinking they are the problem. For example, if someone is coming in to work on depression and anxiety, my ideal client would be willing to explore the underlying issues contributing to the depression and anxiety instead of someone who is only looking for coping skills and such.

What is the trouble that brings you in today? I begin sessions by focusing on the here and now and filling in the past as needed. I help individuals create relationships that are fulfilling in many aspects. I work with parents, teens, couples and individuals depending on the problems that are present. Especially now, people are struggling to build satisfying relationships, be effective in the workplace or school, and manage the challenges of today. If you are frustrated and change is evading you, reach out for a free consult. My style is pragmatic and grounded in meeting you where you are hurting most to cultivate change.

Embarking on a therapeutic journey, whether for the first time or with a fresh perspective, can be a daunting task. It’s perfectly normal to feel apprehensive or even fearful. If you’re seeking effective strategies to manage stress, enhance your relationships, or navigate recurring challenges, you’ve come to the right place. Here, you are free to be yourself as we work together to find the solutions you seek. My therapeutic approach is rooted in specializing in trauma, anxiety and depression.

I helped people navigate a variety of topics, including anxiety, codependency, substance abuse, relational issues, ADHD, gender/identity exploration, and religious trauma, among others. My ideal client is ready to explore, ask questions, and get to the root of things. They want to improve their relationship with themselves and others. They are an active participant in the therapeutic process and are willing to work with me to explore solutions.

Every human being has the right to pursue happiness without being inundated with emotional and behavioral problems. Happiness is not optional but mandatory. Everyone deserves a fulfilling life. To achieve optimal success and happiness, we must maintain emotional health as well as physical health. If we lose this emotional component, physical health is not achievable, and vice versa.

Sometimes it can be hard to talk about what you’re thinking or feeling. You might believe that if you did talk about it, people may judge or reject you. It is my mission to make you feel heard and validated in the hopes that when you do feel more comfortable, you just might find those difficult thoughts and feelings easier to manage. My treatment approach is person-centered, to empower you to understand that your experience of yourself and the world around you matters. I also incorporate psychodynamic, to explore and understand how you came to be who you are today. We will collaborate to to help you live the life you want to live.

Hi, my name is Daniel and I'm all about making mental health as approachable as chatting over coffee. My journey into counseling started because I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard and understood. Every day, I get to help people unpack the big stuff (and the little stuff, too) in a down-to-earth, supportive environment.
