Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists in Merrick, NY

I see all age ranges, from children as young as two years old and up, in addition to seeing parents individually and providing parent-child relationship therapy. I help others heal their mind, body and soul individually, and then work on restoring harmony within the a household. I work with highly sensitive children/adults and provide them the insight needed to embrace who they are and how to approach life with a new perspective. Every human being is unique and deserves to be understood the way they are, not treated like they need to "be fixed."

I also bring extensive experience in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, stress, and a general sense of being stuck.

I help clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, tough life transitions, and social/family/work/school-related issues. My ideal client seeks to discover inner conflict, make changes toward self-improvement, is willing to put in the effort to identify past issues or continuous unhealthy patterns, and is open and committed to trying different approaches and methods toward achieving their goals. We will discuss your main goals, develop a personalized plan, & take steps to learn from your past, stop unhelpful patterns, heal from your hardships, & utilize different techniques and tools to improve your overall quality of life.

I am here to give you a deeper sense of self and the tools to get where you wish to be.

You can start creating a new reality today! In sessions I integrate various styles including cognitive behavioral, solution focused, & client-centered approaches to therapy.

I believe that both triumphs and difficulties in life represent turning points to foster growth, creativity, and positive change. Clinically, via a genuine and caring approach, I consolidate the most empirically proven methodologies to empower clients to evolve into the very best versions of themselves. Through interpersonal counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic counseling, I work my absolute hardest with every client to achieve greater levels of inner strength, confidence, and happiness.
