Therapists in New York

I am a national certified counselor (NBCC) and a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I have been working in the field of mental health counseling for eight years, helping people from different backgrounds as they struggle with anxiety, depression, grief after losses, couples issues and stress and trauma-related disorders. I consider it a privilege to work supporting people as they face life's challenges, providing emotional support, and working collaboratively to learn positive ways to cope and to find appropriate solutions. This means that I do not presume to have all the answers but I can work with you to help you find them. Nor I see my role as a counselor as someone who has to give you advice in every session. Instead, I respect and acknowledge my clients as people with strengths, experiences and emotional and intellectual intelligences who have the capacity to find solutions with the appropriate support and collaboration. Together we will explore your current situation, identify specific issues you want to work on, set goals and explore solutions.

Hi there! I am here to help you, and to understand what you are going through. My goal is to help you do more than just "get through" it. Together we will move forward and start to prosper in whatever life has handed you. My approach is warm, down-to-earth and full of common sense. In a counseling relationship with me, I hope you will: 1) become more aware of what is going on inside you, 2) be able to accept the reality of that, and 3) discover ways of changing your thoughts, actions and beliefs to be more healthy and productive. I draw from the constructs of trauma-informed, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical-behavioral, and internal family systems therapies in my work. Sound good? Let's go!

I’m Robert. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Lifestyle and Results Life Coach. I received my degree at Pace University and conducted my therapeutic hours at New York Presbyterian; renounced as one of the most effective counseling/treatment centers in the world. I served in the armed forces, where I was dispatched to hospitals all around New York State for the Coronavirus outbreak. Through-out my counseling career, I’ve had experience in working with individual psychotherapy, groups, out-patient, in-patient, residential programs, day-habilitation programs, schools, hospitals, mentorship programs and also businesses. With these experiences, I provided service in areas of PTSD, depression, grief, career concerns, motivation, confidence building, work ethic, behavior interventions, leadership coaching, lifestyle changes, anxiety relief and attaining personal goals. My therapeutic style is direct, warm, creative and looks for ways that my clients can enjoy the experience. No matter what any of my clients may be going through or experiences they face; I know they can utilize these experiences to become better versions of themselves. My therapeutic approach is similar to methods that of cognitive behavioral therapy, in which I implement goal setting for clients who especially struggle to attain their valued outcomes. Other methods I utilize are that of solution-focused and also acceptance and commitment therapy; in which I assist clients with growing beyond their stressors and evolve. I am passionate about providing therapeutic treatment as well as quality improvement towards treatment outcomes. My main goal is to redefine a person to allow them to become the best version of themselves.

I am a compassionate and experienced psychotherapist.. Psychology Today named me as of their best and Who's Who of Professional Women also selected me to then represent the field of Mental Health. I have great experience with affective difficulties [anxiety and depression] as well as mitigating relationship difficulties, whether personal or professional. Parents find great relief in my explanations and tactics of behavioral problems in their children, which, of course, affect the family unit. Early childhood trauma, a strong indication of current relationship difficulties, is also a specialty . Please contact me if you want a warm, non judgmental listener to help you with your concerns.

I am licensed in New York as an art therapist and mental health counselor with 4 years of professional work experience. I am IFS - informed.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I am dedicated to the supporting the well-being of my clients from a Christian perspective, though I welcome all who seek counseling, regardless of religious background. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or parenting/marital troubles, I provide a safe place for you to come individually, as a family, or as a couple. While traditional therapy focuses more on the individual, MFT examines how an individual’s behavior affects both the individual and their relationship as part of a couple or family. The theory behind MFT is that regardless of whether a problem appears to be within an individual or within a family, getting other family members involved in the therapeutic process will result in more effective solutions. MFT is goal-oriented and works toward an established end result. In recent years, MFT practitioners and groups have called for expanded approaches to traditional MFT training that incorporate more “real world” practices to integrate other therapies and become more inclusive of non-heterosexual couples and families. I would address the behaviors of all family members and the way these behaviors affect not only individual family members, but also relationships between family members and the family unit as a whole. As such, treatment is usually divided between time spent on individual therapy and time spent on couple therapy, family therapy, or both, if necessary.
