Therapists in Middletown, NY

Are you aiming to improve your relationships with the goal of creating a greater sense of community support? Are you self-motivated and interested in processing your life experiences to find patterns and make meaning of your emotional experiences? A typical client will be aligned with the belief in the importance of community and community care. I work with clients who are ready to do "the work." The expectation is that clients show up regularly and on time for sessions.

A practicing therapist since 2014, I believe in a collaborative partnership to support people living the life they value with greater ease, manageability, and effectiveness. Through my work I have come to learn how prevalent complex trauma and attachment injuries are in our modern culture. My goal in practice is to build connection and confidence, understand personal values and motivations, achieve meaningful relationships, and consequently greater life satisfaction. I work with adults and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal difficulties, substance abuse, and grief.

It is okay to not be okay. Worry, grief, loss, stress, anger, hurt, and other intense feelings can be overwhelming and also leave you feeling stuck and unable to see the light at the end of the tunnel. My approach invites you to grow and thrive at your own pace in a safe environment where you don’t have to navigate the path alone. I provide person-centered mindful therapy, drawing on powerful evidence-based approaches like dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and solutions-focused therapy.

Are you feeling stressed, depressed, or emotionally drained? Are you struggling with marital conflict and seeking help to improve your relationship? Are you a parent who is struggling with your child's behavior and seeking advice from an experienced expert? Are you ready to regain control over your emotions and improve your outlook on life? Look for further!

I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and clinician alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.

It is an honor and a privilege to partner with individuals struggling with a wide range of challenges in everyday life. The work I do with those individuals helps to bring forth the beauty, strength and power within each one of us. This shift allows an individual to overcome issues and begin to thrive. I am passionate about this work and hope that passion enhances the quality of the relationships built with everyone I serve.

Your goals are my goals! First, let's figure out what you want to get out of therapy. If you already know what you need, let's plan out how to make those goals a reality. I always strive to maintain a person centered approach, meeting you where you're at. For some, therapy might seem like a chore. My hope is that you look forward to our sessions together and see each one as an opportunity for growth in a place where you feel supported and empowered. I am always open to hearing what you have to say - this is your space.

I am deeply committed to providing high-quality, personalized treatment to meet your specific needs. With years of experience in my field, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise that can help you achieve your individual goals.
