Psychiatrists in New York, NY

I am committed to working collaboratively with my patients to address emotional distress and difficulties in daily living. This could manifest as depression, anxiety, problems with intimacy or self-esteem, trouble staying focused or feeling connected, feeling excessively angry or guilty, or trouble finding meaning in life, to name only a few. I listen deeply, to understand not only who my patients are right now and what has brought them in, but also what has happened to them in the past and how that has affected the present.

Parents will seek out treatment for a variety of reasons- sometimes it's "just a bump in the road", and other times it has been years of escalating or worsening habits. Some clients are going through a crisis, while others look to build on their strengths and improve their daily quality of living. Life rarely works out the way we intend, and navigating challenges can be particularly difficult for young people. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my job is to assist clients and their parents in working through life's challenges.

You will benefit from Hypnotherapy if you're able to select a specific issue or concern you would like to change about your current circumstances, and have some capacity to visualize how you imagine your life will look once you've successfully achieved this goal. There are many different areas for which hypnotherapy can be quite successful in helping bring about the desired changes. Some of the more common issues treated with hypnotherapy include increasing self-esteem and self-confidence, eliminating fears, anxieties, and phobias, overcoming inertia, and psychological blocks of all kinds that keep you from achieving your goals.

I treat adults and adolescents with a wide array of emotional and psychological concerns, such as depression, anxiety, concentration problems, emotional dysregulation, and bipolar disorder. I also help individuals struggling with relationship or work issues, low self-esteem, anger/irritability, sleep troubles, and questions of meaning and purpose.

Most patients seeking treatment feel that despite their best efforts, inside they feel helpless, confused and demoralized.
