Therapists in New York

I began helping people at a Mental Health Clinic in New York. This lead me to a three year training program in therapy at a New York City Hospital. I have also taught at several New York Universities and Colleges. My training was theoretical. However, decades of practice has adjusted my approach in treatment to be more practical in order to address the issues of stress, anxiety and depression to help you achieve a well adjusted and satisfying life. I also acquired Certification in Critical Incident Stress Management while working with New York City Police, after the fall of the World Trade Center. This training has lent itself to helping people outside of the Department. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder affects many people on many levels. It also appears on multiple levels of degrees. Anxiety, stress and depression occur with separation and loss throughout life. Recently, I completed a year of study on Adoption Competency at Georgia State University. This training has proven to be a great toil in addressing and helping people with other separations and losses. Loss can cause anxiety, stress and in divorce, death and numerous other unexpected incidents in life. If you are willing to begin the journey to discover what is causing your discomfort, lets talk. I am looking forward to meeting you. Thank You, Phyllis Taliaferro LCSW-R

I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist and a Certified School Psychologist. My many years of education and experience have afforded me a plethora of perspectives and a deep understanding of emotional challenges that we all face throughout the course of our lives. I work with clients who are interested in looking at opportunities for change in their lives, change that will hopefully provide hope and new meaning. Well versed in a myriad of theoretical approaches that may promote change, I find it most important to meet the client where he/she is in the present state of time and space thereby customizing the therapy work within the scope of the particular person’s needs, feelings, expectations and goals. I bring a caring and compassionate connection to the therapy room. My first and foremost goal is to present an atmosphere of safety and comfort to the client in an effort to allow for open interaction. I listen to the client with a nonjudgmental and curious stance so that I can learn what issues are brought up in a free form openness as I learn about the challenges and struggles discussed in the present moment. In this context of comfort and openness, there forms a therapy-client relationship that essentially promotes a feeling trust and reliance between the client and myself as we move forward with words of meaningful client life descriptions yet to be identified, interpreted and worked through. I employ models that include several approaches in my work including psychodynamic, attachment styles, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, narrative and client - centered. Combinations of these models are integrated in a way that would be the best match for an individual client.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York with over 15 years of professional work experience across ages and modalities. Beyond my counselor's training, I expect to complete my PhD in Clinical Psychology by end of 2023. My collective training in mental health is vast and includes providing services to children (foster care), adults, couples and families, law enforcement, elite athletes (NBA and NFL), VIP's, executives and veterans. In addition to my academic training, I also offer unique perspectives to my counseling as a man of color, as a Marine Corps veteran, as a retired blue-collar worker and as a father of two beautiful men (now in their 30’s). I mention these experiences because I want men to know that I care about what they experience at work, military or at home. I understand that many times our roles in life can get in the way of really living. And because many men grow up without a father in a culturally complex world, figuring it out on your own can be truly bruising. Still, most of my clinical experience has been working with women, who are the typical first line of defense in single-parent homes. Here is where I have gained most of my experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, & depression. Philosophically, I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. Finally, I also have a Bachelor's degree and years of experience in Pastoral Counseling for those who wish to receive Bible-based counseling.
