Therapists Beginning With Y in New York

I am a Cornell trained clinical psychologist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adults and adolescents coping with a variety of symptoms and life stressors. I offer a warm, empathic, and collaborative approach to help individuals achieve their goals within a reasonable time frame. I often draw from ACT, psychodynamic, meaning-based and mindfulness-based therapies to create a personalized program of treatment to best meet the needs of each individual. My goal is to help people live their most fulfilling and meaningful lives while developing a better understanding and awareness of themselves.

Therapy is both, an art and a science. Effective therapy is both, laborious and liberating; while an effective therapist is someone who has experience, knowledge wisdom, awareness, humility, empathy, compassion, and what we in the field call "unconditional positive regard" for clients. Lastly, an effective client (read: possibly you) is anyone who seeks to foster self-awareness, self-care, self-actualization, and self-love. You deserve happiness, fulfillment, integrity, and peace. Perhaps this sounds trite and rhetorical, but give it some further consideration in your gut and in your soul. Listen to what each is yearning for.

I'm an interactive and dynamic therapist striving to provide a compassionate space to explore your inner world. The goal is to develop insight while learning skills to effectively navigate challenges and reduce suffering. Utilizing a dialectical approach, (balancing both self-acceptance and desire to change), we journey together to build the life you want to live. Many of my clients have been through traumatic events and describe feeling stuck in cycles of self-destructive behaviors, thinking patterns, and relationships. Treatment is tailored to the individual client and what they want out of therapy.

Resilience is key to living a fulfilled life. Nori aims to foster resilience so that you can overcome hardship and challenges when they happen. Exploring childhood is another therapeutic focus. Our current challenges are very often rooted in childhood. Therefore, processing childhood and fostering resilience tend to have cascading benefits on mental health.

Do you need help dealing with your relationships, work, family, and self-esteem? As a psychologist with many years of experience, I combine empathy, psychological insight, and feedback to help you gain greater self-awareness and empower you to make positive changes in your life. I do both individual and couple's therapy and am able to blend my psychoanalytic training with other modalities such as anxiety reduction techniques. I have over 15 years of experience in college/grad school counseling from my work at Columbia University and have also helped adults through other important life stages and challenges.

There is no ideal client. Each client is a unique subject who has been shaped by an infinitely complex set of circumstances; family, culture and inherited predispositions. The one thing that they have in common is that somehow there is a sense that things are somehow not right and yet still entertain a suspicion that things can improve. Working in an open, honest and interactive way, marked by curiosity, compassion and courage we will work together to discover patterns and styles that hinder the experience of joy, intimacy and achievement. Together we will work to overcome the crisis of debilitating guilt, anxiety and depression.

I am a certified interpersonal psychoanalyst, clinical social worker and psychologist.I speak English, Russian and some Hebrew.

I offer traditional talk therapy and art therapy when words alone are not enough. I work with children and adults, helping my clients navigate various life challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, professional identity, creative blocks, immigration-related issues, and more.

“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I’m possible” I believe with the right support, this motto can apply to us all! My approach to therapy is client-centered with emphasis on emotional support and acceptance. I have worked with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, loss, and ADHD. In addition, I have supported clients struggling with family, relationship issues, as well as other life changes. I believe that trust, empathy, and empowerment are essential in building relationships and in the growth of the client.

Entering therapy is a courageous step toward healing and self-realization. I respect the strengths, insight and motivation my clients bring to the therapeutic process. I focus on working collaboratively with each person’s inherent capacity to thrive by making meaning of lived experience and addressing obstacles that inhibit growth. My treatment specialities include depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, career related and relationship issues.

Hello! Taking that first step to engage in therapy can be very overwhelming, scary, and push you out of your comfort zone. It is that first step that can also be the most important one you take to move towards meaningful life changes. I am a therapist who has experience working with clients of all ages (5 y/o-elderly) from all different backgrounds and various mental health concerns. Together we will work on personalized goals that we can achieve through therapy sessions to enhance your everyday life and work towards living your ideal and fulfilling life.

All of us reach points in our lives when we feel overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck. It is easy sometimes to feel discouraged and alone. In those moments, we may lose our ability to feel joy, to see our strengths, to feel connection, and live to our full potential. This is when counseling can provide the safety and support we all need to confront our personal challenges and rediscover the beauty and resilience of our own hearts.

Are you attempting to manage feelings that have been building up over time? You may be living with anxiety and depression, generally feeling stuck, and/or are trying to manage the personalities of people around you. Perhaps you aren’t quite sure how to talk about what’s happening; but something doesn’t feel right—things just feel off. During times like this, talking to a professional can help. I work with young adults, parents, college and graduate students including international students. I have niche specialized experience working with medical professionals such as physicians, nurses and medical trainees.

The foundation of my practice comes from a strong belief in the importance of building a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. My practice is based on an integrated approach, utilizing clinical models that are best for the client, helping you make positive changes, finding and cultivating your strengths, meeting your goals, and relieving distress. I will actively engage with you in a supportive and non-judgmental manner, and work collaboratively. Working with clients who are open to becoming more self aware and improving their lives, motivates my work.

Hola! If you are looking for a psychotherapist who is empathetic, open-minded, occasionally funny, and most importantly someone who will push you take the driver's seat in your own treatment, then I'm the therapist for you. I’m here to help you to take back ownership of your own life when your symptoms have made you feel powerless.

Over the years, I have come to understand that many of our difficulties with work and/or relationships can be traced to some forms of disconnection internally and externally, sometime manifested as depression, anxiety, existential angst, eating disorder, or addiction. I view therapy as a continuous in-depth conversation with another person in order to mend past traumas, reconnect with self and others, and develop a new perspective on life. I will bring to this journey curiosity, compassion, knowledge, experiences, and a commitment to help you strive for a healthier and more balanced life.
