Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists in Laurelton, NY

I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of New York. I'm passionate and dedicated to providing a Solution-Focused approach that utilizes Psychodynamic Therapy coupled with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Additionally, I offer Christian counseling services for those seeking spiritual guidance. I believe in creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts, and feelings and work towards their goals.

I specialize in solution-focused therapy. Through the lens of Person-centered psychology, I collaborate with clients to identify what would make the most difference in the area that they want to work on. Each counseling session is directive and intentional in moving clients toward accomplishing their goals for therapy. I work mainly within the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy framework, with systems and conflict perspectives as my theoretical base. I have a speciality in child and family therapy with an acute focus on child, parent and couple-work. Please visit our website at www.crpartnership.org for more information.

I graduated from Pace University with my Master's Degree as a Licensed Mental Health Therapist and Substance Abuse Counselor. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy as each individual has specific treatment needs as each person's experiences and the emotional impact of those experiences are unique to that individual. This is why my theoretical approach is humanistic and client-centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Adler, and Gestalt.
