Women's Issues Therapists in Garrison, NY

I feel privileged to enter in to a therapeutic relationship with my clients where trust is established, feelings are honored, and pain is explored and healed. I believe wholly in the therapeutic value of feeling heard and understood. My aim with clients is to foster a positive and supportive relationship that provides the skills necessary to create happy and healthy relationships in their lives.

Our thoughts, beliefs and bodies reflect our emotional struggles. We often come to therapy when old ways of coping aren't working anymore- when we long for comfort, relief, or more authentic and deeper connections in our relationships. The whole person needs to be addressed in times of crisis, transition and loss. Healing is a word derived from the German hailjan- “to make whole.” I work with a holistic, acceptance-based and contemplative approach to psychotherapy. Practicing self-compassion and self- acceptance lead to less reactivity and more peaceful, integrated and intentional lives.

Transitions are difficult and overwhelming at any age. You feel stuck, and unable to think clearly. Many days you are experiencing anxiety, depression, mood swings, and irritability. Past traumas and the heavy weight of life are being triggered and getting in the way of your best self. Picture what it would look like to have a more positive, and stress-free life where you can move forward. I work with children and adults through issues that are causing anger, mood swings and problems with friends and relationships.

I offer brief effective counseling for relationship and sexual enhancement. For forty years, I've been helping individuals and couples to meet their goals: better communication, less conflict, greater intimacy and a better sexual life.I take a fresh approch to everyone to find the most efficient yet sensitive way to help. My training in Psychotherapy, Family and Relationship Therapy and Sex Therapy allows me a full range of skills to improve your life.I have experience working with persons of various religious and cultural traditions and work with people of all ages and sexual orientations.

Hello. I am a psychotherapist licensed in New York and New Jersey. I have over 25 years of experience and I am trained in EMDR and DBT. I would love to guide you in working through whatever it is that is weighing you down, distracting you, troubling you and getting in the way of fully enjoying your life.

Every soul experiences joy, pain, happiness, suffering, gratitude, grief, depression, or negativity at some point in their lives. The human experience is not just a moment but a series of memories beyond what the heart can express or elate. As a therapist, I’d like to guide you through those day-to-day experiences, identifying your trials, triumphs, & tribulations while learning to find a way to experience your emotions, reactions, & behavior with intention, purpose, and love. The road to healing is not a final destination but an everlasting, ever-evolving journey. A journey that involves honesty, love, kindness, and forgiveness.

I specialize in treating all varieties of anxiety - from social anxiety to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and everything in between. I will teach you skills to put into practice so that you don't need weekly therapy in the long term. I'm here to help you move forward, not to make you dependent on therapy. I also specialize in helping gay men, particularly gay men of color, with the unique difficulties they face. Many of my gay male clients have felt that I helped them move past the wounds left by rejecting family members. I am also experienced helping doctors and other medical professionals.

Does anxiety, stress, and/or depression have you longing for positive change and reconnection to the world? I am a licensed psychotherapist helping adults find balance and direction in their personal and professional lives. I will guide your discovery of yourself, helping you to blossom into a more fulfilled human being. Most of my current patients and clients are struggling with anxiety, depression, poor body image, difficult relationships, or past trauma. We can work towards goals of healthy relationships, personal growth, job changes, parenthood, and overall life satisfaction. Together, we journey towards mental health and wellness.

I believe that in order to be healthy, we need to be able to work, to love, and to play. If you are overwhelmed with anxiety or feelings of being lost, unsure of what you want, feeling less than whole, finding yourself procrastinating when you don't know why, or having repeated difficulty in relationships, I am hopeful you have come to the right place. By looking closely at what may be holding you back, we will be able to understand it with fresh eyes. This can lead you to your goals of relief from suffering, a greater sense of choice, and more freedom to express the self you most want to be.

I have over thirty years experience working in both school and clinical settings. I specialize in working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, social difficulties and ADHD. My work with adults includes helping to manage feelings of depression and anxiety and to improve interpersonal relationships.
