Women's Issues Therapists in Glen Head, NY
I am passionate about helping couples have more satisfying relationships. While I believe couples benefit from the Gottman tools to improve communication, friendship, and intimacy, I also work with couples on deeper issues; what is each individual bringing to the session internally. How do family of origin issues impact each person and the couple. I help couples connect with themselves and calm themselves using mindfulness and self-soothing. This combination can allow couples to be more vulnerable with each other to improve the feeling of connection.

Therapy is a process, but it doesn't have to be scary or stigmatizing. We all need help sometimes, whether you have experienced tremendous loss and trauma, or are simply feeling unhappy and stuck in your head. It is easy to feel lost and alone, or to worry that we are never doing or being enough.

Do you find yourself wondering “How did I get here?” Life has a way of taking some unexpected (and unwanted) twists and turns that can leave you feeling confused and overwhelmed. You may experience this as anxiety, depression or isolation. Feeling stuck in the past or anxious about the future can impact your mood, your behavior, and your capacity for happiness. “Where do I go from here?” is a powerful question that can open doors to self-awareness and greater happiness. As a trained professional, I can help you explore that question.

We all have something to heal and healing is possible. I have had an integrative practice in psychotherapy for over 30 years.

I also provide therapy for codependency, addiction, and support in the recovery process. As a trauma therapist I offer supportive psychotherapy and EMDR for healing trauma.

Are you feeling less confident, less capable than you once did? Are you feeling alone, ashamed, confused, off balance, guilty, anxious depressed, fearful? There is hope. Sometimes in life, we enter seasons or face unexpected events that overwhelm our ability to cope. Our old ways of navigating through life are no longer working. These life events can be something you had hoped for and dreamed about that either didn’t pan out the way you expected or have stirred up unexpected thoughts and feelings. It might be a traumatic event, the loss of a relationship, or a major life transition such as the birth of a child.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
