The village of Wesley Hills is in the Rockland County of New York and has a population of just over 5900. In 1997, Joseph Berger of The New York Times said that Wesley Hills was one of several Ramapo villages formed by non-Jewish people and more secular Jewish people to preserve the sparse “Better Homes and Garden” ambiance that attracted them to Rockland County.

Regardless of your religion, race, age, or gender, everyone needs to have someone to talk to once in a while, especially if there is a problem in your life. Sometimes you just do not want to bother your loved ones with your issues and would rather speak to a professional. Contact one of the Wesley Hills area counselors or therapists for an appointment.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of professional experience in New York, I specialize in using ego psychology to help clients navigate complex psychological challenges. My clinical work focuses on addressing logical fallacies and maladaptive coping mechanisms, particularly within the context of the complexities of modern life. I employ evidence-based interventions to facilitate clients' understanding of their internal thought processes and how these can impact their behavior and emotional well-being. My approach is integrative, drawing on various therapeutic modalities while emphasizing the development of clients' ego functions to enhance their adaptive capacity. Through targeted conversations and interventions, I assist clients in identifying and restructuring irrational beliefs and maladaptive coping strategies. My experience includes roles such as Program Coordinator at Mount Sinai Morningside and Associate Program Director at the Institute for Family Health, where I have been involved in program development, clinical supervision, and implementing quality improvement initiatives. This background allows me to create a supportive therapeutic environment, fostering clients' strengths and resilience as they work toward healthier, more adaptive ways of functioning.
