Therapists in West Hempstead, NY

I am a licensed clinical social worker, certified to provide ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and an AASECT-certified Sex Therapist. I bring a trauma-focused perspective to all of my work and pull from a mix of evidence-based treatments depending on client need. My specialties are in sex therapy and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. My experience providing sex therapy includes treatment for the following conditions: desire discrepancy in couples; low sex drive; ED, PE, vaginismus, vulvodynia, recovery from sexual trauma, erotic recovery and emotional healing after an affair, negotiating boundaries within monogamy, the development of a polyamorous agreement, out-of-control sexual behaviors and kink-affirming care. I am so excited about ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), which I provide in partnership with prescribers through Journey Clinical. While nothing is a magic cure, I have been amazed and inspired by the rapid improvement I've seen in my KAP clients' lives.

Hello, I am a psychotherapist licensed to practice in New York State. I enjoy being a therapist and helping people to live better lives.

I've worked in various roles throughout my life. I started as a performing artist. I grew and learned a lot from that experience -- as I have from all of my roles -- but wanted to explore other interests. That included corporate management and leadership roles for 18+ years and going to graduate school. Ultimately I've landed on my feet in a field that truly fits my skills, my passion and what feels like a calling. I believe my varied background gives me an edge in understanding a lot of different life paths. I offer that to my patients.

I’m Dr. Michael Tom — Harvard- and Columbia-trained, board-certified in both Psychiatry and Community & Public Psychiatry. I’ve worked with clients who seem to have it all together on the outside but feel stressed, anxious, or disconnected on the inside. I’ve been there, and I know how exhausting it can feel to keep pushing forward without relief. My approach is grounded in experience and compassion. I provide a supportive space to help you make sense of the stress, understand your patterns, and develop strategies that truly work for your life. I am also a contributing author to the American Psychiatric Association's practice guidelines, so I bring a broad perspective and up-to-date knowledge to every session. Your goals: sleep that restores, focus that lasts, stronger relationships, and a career that's part of, but not all, of a meaningful life. I offer confidential therapy with or without medication management. We work on a plan that fits your schedule and the life you want, so you can get back to feeling like yourself.

As a clinician, I strive to be intelligent and warm, but also direct. I won't hide behind an anonymous exterior. My sessions are frequently punctuated by wit, insight and spontaneity. I try to be as authentic as possible while prioritizing your well-being and enhancing your capacity to change.
