Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Rockville Centre, NY

As a psychologist, I understand that looking for the right therapist can be daunting. By focusing on past events and their impact on your life, present issues can be better understood. My goal is to help you leave my office with a clearer understanding of yourself and better equipped to deal with life's challenges. I have received training in various treatment approaches, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Psychotherapy (CBT), psychodynamic psychotherapies, Trauma Focused Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and play therapy. In my approach, I keep the client's individual needs in mind, working in a safe and collaborative manner.

Does life feel overwhelming and not how you imagined it would be? Do you feel like you are a human "doing" instead of a human "being"? Do you feel anxious or depressed, hoping that happiness will come when people or circumstances change? Ultimately, you are the only person who has the ability to make the changes necessary to find inner peace and balance in your life. Let's work together to identify your personal strengths and use them to move you toward the life you want to live. You do not have to feel "stuck" forever.

Are you having difficulties managing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions? Are you looking to process thoughts, feelings, trauma history, and create a better life worth living? Do you want to develop healthier coping skills, develop healthy boundaries, and improve your communication and decision making skills? Finding a healthy balance can be very challenging to obtain!

Are you struggling with your emotions and feeling stuck? Do you tend to get overwhelmed by your thoughts and are unsure about how to move forward? We all go through life experiences that can impact our present day. These challenges tend to shape the way that we view the world and ourselves. When you choose to begin this journey, we can take a deeper look at unhealthy relationships, negative self-judgments, and unresolved experiences. I often see those experiencing anxiety, challenging family dynamics, depression, perfectionism, and complex trauma.

Although we generally perceive pain as an unpleasant experience, it many times serves to call our attention to something in our lives that is ready to be healed. Today you are one step closer to healing. As a psychodynamic therapist, my goal is to help uncover your true potential and help you to regain a sense of control and pleasure in your life. We will uncover behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling life. We can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. I look forward to working with you.

We all have our stories to tell and narratives to make sense of our lives. But as you go through life, sometimes, things are not at all what they seem. What you feel inside and how you function in your life don’t always align. Hardships such as trauma, abuse, divorce, loss, and feelings of oppression mask and confuse our inner compass. We tend to hold conflict and unfinished business in our bodies. These experiences affect our relationships with others, but more importantly, affect our connection with ourselves.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with sadness or anxiety? Initially, change can be difficult to make but seeking help is the first step to empowering yourself to feel better. We will work collaboratively with each client to identify underlying sources of their emotional distress and maladaptive patterns that interfere with personal and work relationships in order to develop more effective ways of coping with life's stressors. On Course Psychological Counseling, P.C. is a multidisciplinary group practice comprised of psychologists, social workers, mental health counselors and marriage and family therapists.

When you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or mentally stuck, it can impact every aspect of your life. These difficult emotions can get in the way of experiencing and participating in your life the way you want to. I specialize in helping people cope with anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness strategies to teach new ways to cope with painful thoughts and feelings.

Hello; my name is Kindale and I'd appreciate the honor of being your therapist. As your Psychotherapist I intend to establish and develop our therapeutic relationship on three basic principles; fostering esteem, consistently encouraging your goals, and empowering you to sustain lasting achievement.

I am a licensed counselor in NY/NJ with 8 years of experience in psychotherapy. I began my career working in a variety of roles at Northwell Health facilities including Zucker Hillside Hospital and Cohen Children’s Medical Center. I have assisted children, adolescents, and adults in both crisis centers and weekly individual therapy. My current area of focus is working with teenagers and young adults. I aim to assist my clients in further developing their sense of self, working towards their goals, and maintaining an eager outlook on their future, while we sift through the barriers towards a better quality of daily life.

I believe in an approach to therapy that simply, "starts where the client is at." Therapy should be tailored to the individual. I believe in a well-rounded approach that considers the social, psychological and biological aspects of one's life. I feel that all too often society pathologizes the individual without taking into account the past and present environmental factors that have influenced where the person is today. I provide a safe, non-judgemental and caring atmosphere to help the individual examine where they are in life and where they would like to be.

I am a psychodynamically trained psychologist with broad life experience who will approach your treatment with a mixture of theoretically based therapy and common sense. My background in the health care field - nursing degree from Georgetown University and clinical work at Sloan Kettering Cancer Center- contributes to my understanding of mental health difficulties as a combination of biological, social, and psychological factors. I will approach your treatment in a comprehensive manner with an emphasis on what works best for you.

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by internal feelings or external events, or need to respond to unexpected changes in your life, I will work with you to help you meet life's challenges. My practice focuses on the treatment of depression & anxiety; stress & PTSD; trauma & addiction recovery, as well as family & relationship issues. I am a licensed psychotherapist, complementary medicine practitioner, educator and clinical supervisor with specializations in treating trauma, stress and addiction.

I am a skilled clinical psychologist who can help you explore your interior self. I hope to assist you to increase awareness, improve relationships and learn healthier coping skills. Talking through and processing problems - and understanding the roots of recurring issues - can lead to a fuller, richer life. Depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues can inhibit people from reaching personal and professional possibilities. I will engage with you to explore emotions and reactions, and provide an objective, neutral and supportive environment for you to understand who you are.

Individual, couples, and family therapy is offered here regardless of age or cultural background. Collaborative approaches allow clients to not only manage their symptoms effectively, but to also improve their quality of life and relationships. Clients within the practice are encouraged to develop effective tools to get and keep positive lasting change.

Join me on a journey of self-exploration, understanding, and growth through a holistic lens. While providing an empathetic and nonjudgmental environment, I will work alongside you to create greater self-awareness and develop healthy ways to navigate life. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, depression, trauma, grief, alcohol & substance use, and people-pleasing tendencies. Whatever you are going through, I am here to help support, guide, and empower you in leading a more genuine and fulfilling life.
