Therapists in Great Neck, NY

My name is Hilary Brodsky. I am a licensed clinical social worker. Currently, on this site_I am only taking on clients for half hour sessions and only through online texting. I have been working as a therapist for over 20 years. After I graduated from Columbia University in NYC, I received further training and certification in the treatment of Eating Disorders as well as certification in DBT (a mindfulness, behavioral approach to treatment.) use a combination of talk behavioral therapy, dialectic behavior therapy.

My name is Geoffrey M. Golia and I am a psychotherapist and clinical social worker. I strive to always be a warm, compassionate, and flexible practitioner, with a passion for helping people help themselves. I am consistently awed by people's capacity to overcome challenges and live a life of purpose and happiness, and I feel privileged that I can support them on that journey. Before I became a practitioner, I was a patient who experienced the transformative nature of psychotherapy and a therapeutic alliance with a therapist first hand. That experience inspired me to change careers. I received my Masters in Social Work from NYU's Silver School of Social Work in 2012 with goal of engaging a diverse array of people in therapeutic conversations in a spirit of shared fate and social justice. Throughout my professional career, I have worked with a broad range of people, families, and groups. These include justice-involved and formerly-incarcerated young men, college students, adolescents and adults from 18 years of age to 60, children affected by the foster care system, and people with substance use disorders and co-occuring mental health issues. This work has shaped my view that emotional well-being is at the foundation of one's personal and professional success, and that all people deserve a reflective space to seek change and healing. My practice is eclectic and I've built a diverse toolbox, having completed trainings in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and DBT for Substance Use Disorders, Psychodynamic/Psychoanalytic Therapy, trauma-informed approaches, and Motivational Interviewing, to name a few. One current that runs through my work is an emphasis on the notion that each individual has the means of their own healing and liberation inside of them. I'm looking forward to working with you.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York State and have provided mental health counseling for 32 years to people of all ages. I worked as a school counselor for the past 32 years at the Kenton UFSD, a suburban school district just north of Buffalo, NY. I also provide family and couples counseling at the KenTon Family Support Center. Many people feel stuck at times but do not know how to make changes to allow them to enjoy their lives to the fullest. My approach to counseling incorporates a few styles of therapy to help clients clarify goals, understand their own behaviors and self-talk, and take charge of their future. Clinical areas of treatment include anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationships, stress management, conflict resolution, work and career issues, grief & loss, and anger management. I strongly believe in the dignity and worth of people and am dedicated to helping people find a productive healthy path.

I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which my clients can explore the issues and challenges they face. I strongly believe in the power of the therapeutic partnership to help uncover the strengths and resources we all possess in order to bring about the changes we desire in our lives. I feel privileged to be able to offer my assistance to others on this shared journey and commend you for reaching out for help to make things better. I have always been a “helper” and over the years have worked in a variety of capacities in schools, hospitals, community service agencies, primary care offices, and as a mother to three children and two big dogs. I believe that each role has helped me to better understand the issues my clients face in their own lives. I hold a Master’s degree in counseling psychology from Boston College, as well as a Certifications in Integrated Behavioral Health for both Pediatrics and Primary Care. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused and strength-based therapy to help my clients deal with life changes, depression, anxiety, parenting issues, and job stress, to name a few. I believe in using humor, relaxation training, and mindfulness techniques to help my clients as we work together to reach their goals. I fully believe that my clients are the expert on determining their needs and guiding their work.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of New York with years of experience as a clinical therapist serving in mental health outpatient clinic settings and in a private, independent practice. I earned my Master of Social Work from Fordham University Graduate School of Social Service with a Clinical Concentration and Specialization in Children and Families. I also graduated as a member of Phi Kappa Phi National Honors Society. My credentials include a certification in Advanced Clinical Practice from the New York University Silver School of Social Work. My service as a mental health therapist is part of more than thirty years experience in mental health, social work and human services. I am a career human services, social work professional, administrator and clinician with significant, accomplished results in the development of mental health and clinical social work interventions, programs and supports in the service of children, schools and communities in New York, New Jersey and Washington D.C.

The entirety of my experience has however led me to embrace a supportive, holistic approach that seeks to strengthen individual and personal growth.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of New York providing brief online supportive therapy for adults in need of emotional support and guidance while navigating life challenges. I enjoy helping people gain perspective using an integrated approach to treatment consisting of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, and utilizing strategies to move through the Stages of Change. These models of treatment are collaborative in that we work together to explore possible solutions and deconstructing impulsive automatic thoughts and beliefs that keep us stuck in a self-defeating cycle of learned behaviors and habits. This cycle maintains the distress we are attempting to release. Cultivating a set of skills to stay grounded in the present moment empowers us to use our 5 senses to simply notice or observe what is happening in the "here and now" without judgmental labels or descriptions about our experiences. Finally coming to understand that in spite of perceived barriers that can leave us feeling hopeless and helpless we can make at least one step forward by rethinking the meaning, intent, and purpose of any goal we strive to meet. We are the authors of our story and have editing power! DISCLAIMER: I am a Bible believing born-again follower of Jesus Christ . I can support believers who ask for Biblical inspiration to cope with everyday life stressors using scripture from the Holy Bible and integrating these spiritual principles with clinical models of treatment. As we face the uncertainty of life we can move past our fears, doubts, and insecurities by remaining grounded in the Word of God for strength.
