About Therapy for Adults
Adults have many stressors throughout the day, such as relationships, family, career, and much more. These stressors can cause many uncomfortable mental health symptoms, including depression, anxiety, panic, burnout, substance abuse and more. These mental health conditions, when left untreated can also cause significant physical symptoms, such as body pain, tension, headaches, high blood pressure, and more. Therapy can help stressed adults have a deeper understanding of the many ways that untamed stress and chronic mental health problems are impacting their lives.
Life brings many challenges, and it is understandable that at times we might look for support in facing them. Therapy can help you gain the support that you need to handle challenges and difficult transitions. As a therapist, my role is to provide space and guidance to help you on your journey of self-discovery and mastery. We explore many aspects of your life and make new, meaningful choices. Holistic psychotherapy offers adults many important tools to heal and experience wellbeing. We look at emotions, environment, occupation, hobbies, nutrition, diet, exercise, social connections, and so much more. As a holistic psychotherapist in NYC, I can help you realize how each of these components work together in harmony to support your daily routines, goals and overall wellbeing. This deeper understanding of the whole self often results in enhanced self-awareness, improved self-esteem, and radical self-acceptance.
About Therapy For Adolescents
Adolescents have many of the same stressors as adults. Relationships, social issues, school, and more can cause older adolescents to endure many of the same mental health concerns, such as anxiety, panic and depression. Many adolescents do not have adequate skills and coping mechanisms in place to help them deal with their emotional challenges. Speaking with a therapist can help adolescents better understand their feelings and emotions. Therapy for adolescents can include CBT to help them with thoughts and behaviors as well as other therapies that provide support.
About Therapy For Couples
Couples tend to seek help during times of extreme stress, when they’ve lost their ability to cope. Working with couples in crisis can give us an opportunity to work on ways to create stability, build relational skills and understand each other better through challenging times. Crisis can offer tremendous opportunities for couples to grow stronger and deepen their connection. It can also create a wedge between couples and pull them apart.
Couple sessions offers the opportunity to work through and discuss conflicts that have been avoided or suppressed, which has led to resentment. Partners are helped to identify patterns and dynamics of the past that are being reenacted in the present as well as learn to respond to the emotions and needs that are beneath the surface of relational struggles.
Effective marriage counseling and couple therapy can support motivated partners as they heal from trauma and navigate difficult times together. In some cases, couples have suffered a trauma in their relationship, such as a betrayal or infidelity, a difficult loss or change in circumstances, or another type of crisis that creates relational stress. Betrayal recovery therapy is often an integral part of healing core wounds.
