Getting Started

If you are feeling unhappy or confused about your life, please give me a call at
(516) 314-0245. I will be happy to speak with you for a brief phone consultation. You will be able to ask me any questions and share your concerns with me, free of charge. If you feel comfortable with me, and get a sense that we can work together, we will schedule a time that is convenient for you to come in and meet with me.

I know what a big step it is to start therapy, but I want you to know that it could be one of the best things you will ever do for yourself. Therapy can help in so many ways:

  • instills hope
  • offers support and insight
  • clarifies life problems
  • helps to resolve difficult issues
  • facilitates personal growth and development
  • teaches skills to deal with anxiety and stress
  • helps to define and achieve life goals
  • encourages active problem-solving
  • helps with identifying, managing, and expressing feelings
  • improves coping skills
  • Increases awareness of maladaptive coping mechanisms
  • finds more efficient and healthier methods of dealing with issues
  • strengthens and enhances self-esteem
  • identifies self-limiting patterns
  • improves communication skill
  • leads to positive outcomes
