Find a Therapist in Levittown, New York.

My approach to psychotherapy integrates several different theoretical orientations. This includes cognitive behavioral, experiential, positive psychology, family systems, and psychodynamic therapies. Therefore treatment with me will likely involve both a detailed exploration of your background and at the same time provide practical solution oriented interventions. By developing a comprehensive understanding of your unique personality I can determine which combination of approaches is most appropriate for you at different points throughout your treatment to most effectively assist you.

Psychotherapy, or talk therapy as it is known, is the most common approach to learning about the root causes of the presenting problem. We will use psychotherapy extensively together to learn about your life and what might seem in the way of moving forward in it. Make no mistake, the barriers to moving forward to the kind of life you want to live are removable!

I use an approach called positive psychology. Our primary goal in working together is guiding you toward a more happy, meaningful and fulfilling life. From work, to marriage, to social relationships, and raising children, you will learn effective emotion coaching kills that you will be able to apply across all areas of your life. Together we will increase positive emotions, engagement, meaning, and relationships in your life. We will conduct a character strengths test and begin working with your strengths across all areas of your life. I will show you how to use self concordant goals in order to achieve desired results in your job, marriage or with your children. Self concordant goals are goals that you choose that are aligned with your deep personal values and interests.

Psychotherapy is a highly effective treatment for individuals, couples or families experiencing emotional turmoil. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one type of psychotherapy that looks at how negative thoughts and feelings effect behavior. The C.B.T. approach teaches you techniques that can change these negative thoughts. Why struggle with feelings of depression, low self worth, poor body image and more when there may a treatment that can help you change your negative outlook.

Psychotherapy allows you to explore your struggles, issues, conflicts and insecurities in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I work with you to assist you in finding ways to navigate and cope with your stressors. I utilize a solution focused approach, behavioral techniques and mindfulness, as well as other tools and techniques. Sessions are interactive.

Couples tell me that I am unlike most other therapists because I work in-office and don't offer teletherapy and they were grateful to find someone who believes in-office work is optimal. My clients tell me that they feel supported and comfortable in our sessions and that I have the ability to keep track of the important details of their lives. Our work pays dividends to you as you develop lifelong tools to: manage conflict, improve communication, lower stress, and reduce anxiety and depression. We will work together to help you become empowered with the confidence to take care of yourself while also “juggling” life’s commitments, resulting in you finally getting the life that you want.
