Therapists in Hempstead, NY

Especially for some of the most successful among us, we can hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance in all areas. Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. For so many, an achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work with my clients to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined. My approach is solution-focused and uses elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy to identify and build on your strengths. As a Substance Abuse Specialist, I help individuals including young adults transform their relationships with substances and behaviors that feel out of control. Therapy should be a process that makes us feel free to be fully ourselves. To heal and enliven us to be authentically, beautifully, and powerfully exactly who we are, unbound by what has in the past, held us back. Let's work together to find strength, meaning, healing, and freedom so you can define your own path. It's time to be free and come alive again. Let’s do it together.

You know something needs to change. Maybe you have carried a quiet sense for a while that something is not quite right. On the outside, you are capable and accomplished. On the inside, there may be anxiety, self-doubt, or a persistent feeling of not being good enough. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience working with adults. I believe change is possible. Together, we clarify what is keeping you stuck and move in a focused, collaborative way toward a more confident, values-driven life. I specialize in working with thoughtful, driven adults who feel stuck in anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and depression. Using CBT, we look closely at the patterns between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and work in a focused, collaborative way to shift them, so you can move through life with more flexibility, confidence, self-trust, and joy. Clients often share that they feel understood, gently challenged, and supported in ways that make meaningful change feel possible. If you’re ready to take a thoughtful, steady look at what’s keeping you stuck, I invite you to reach out. We can begin working toward changes that feel real and lasting.

Hello! I'm Caroline Nwaro, a dedicated and experienced Nurse Practitioner based in Nanuet, New York. With a Doctorate in Nursing Practice and a Master's in Public Health, my goal is to provide compassionate and comprehensive care to my patients. Over the past several years, I've worked in various healthcare settings, including programs for unaccompanied children and care for the homeless. My work often involves using telehealth technologies to ensure that everyone receives timely and effective medical attention. I'm also skilled in creating tailored health care plans, administering vaccinations, and conducting vital health screenings. In my role as the Director of Health Services at Cayuga Family Centers, I cared for both adults and children. This included everything from recording medical histories and developing care plans to prescribing medications and performing necessary procedures. Teaching is another passion of mine. As a Clinical Adjunct Instructor, I have helped train the next generation of healthcare professionals by guiding students through their learning journeys and helping develop innovative curricula. Overall, my mission is to ensure the well-being of my patients by providing high-quality medical care, supporting their health journeys, and fostering a community of wellness. *Specialties •Weight Loss •Pediatrics •Pain Management •Mental Health •Gynecology •Internal Medicine •Adolescent Medicine •Obstetrics & Gynecology •Nursing •Endocrinology •General Practice •Family Medicine *Conditions treated •Weight loss •Obesity •Overweight •Life style change •Metabolic disorders •Thyroid disorders •Annual check-up •Routine health maintenance •Fever •Ear infection •Vaccinations •Asthma •Diarrhea •Common cold •Skin rash •Sore throat •Check-up •Growth concerns •Dermatitis •Chronic back pain •Neck pain •Joint pain •Nerve pain •Headaches •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •ADHD •Trauma •Panic attacks •Contraception •Diabetes •Acne treatment •Substance abuse •Sexual health •Abnormal menstruation •Flu •Allergies •Covid *Treatment philosophy My treatment philosophy centers on providing holistic, patient-centered care that emphasizes the integration of physical, emotional, and social aspects of health.

Hey there, I'm Erin! Think of me as your personal guide in the world of therapy, where we'll navigate the twists and turns of your unique story together. Whether you're dealing with relationship hiccups or personal hurdles, or you're simply curious about the power of hypnotherapy, I'm here to listen and lend a non-judgmental ear. No worry is too small, no question too quirky – if it matters to you, it matters to me. So grab a comfy chair, and let's chat. Your journey to feeling more like 'you' starts now.

I specialize in understanding and addressing the unique psychological needs of young adults and adults. My areas of focus in practice include anxiety, panic disorder, depression, ADHD, burnout and perfectionism. I also have clinical experience and expertise in working with individuals with chronic health conditions. I completed my Doctorate in Psychology at Hofstra in 2020. My doctoral training began in 2015 and consisted of thousands of hours of clinical experience and instruction in evidence- based therapeutic techniques. I have also interned and worked within school, hospital and private practice settings.

I'm Keeley. I'm a native New Yorker and I've been in practice for about 14+ years. I'm an animal lover, swimmer, wannabe gardener, and mama to the most beautiful little boy, who happens to be on the Autism spectrum. There's pressure these days to reveal one's ethnic identity- I would describe my identity as multicultural that vacillates and varies. I take pride in working with adults of all backgrounds. I've seen the toll that increased success and money can take on a person's relationships with others and with themselves. You may feel socially isolated, misunderstood by family and friends from your past, perhaps even guilt or shame for doing so well while at the same time feeling that your accomplishments aren't enough. I work with high-achievers and (often) new HNW (high net worth) individuals to gain acceptance of their successes and finally feel at peace. I help them gain an understanding of their self-esteem; explore & implement boundaries with others, themselves, work, money; overcome loneliness; reduce stressors that affect their decision-making & financial well-being; and normalize their new power & social status, especially if they are a woman. Therapy is a safe place to confide. I usually describe my therapeutic/coaching style as big sisterish. I'm try to bring in humor but not without transparency. I was trained in a psychodynamic orientation, but like to include elements of other types of therapies.  I like therapy sessions to be both reflective and action-oriented. I've been in this field for about 14 years and have worked with many people just like yourself, in addition to knowing first-hand just what you are going through. You probably have plenty of questions, so please reach out to set up your consultation.

Are you feeling down and depressed because of seemingly insurmountable challenges in your personal or work life?
