About Us
What’s different about Integrative Psychotherapy?
Integrative Psychotherapy is a group practice, in Long Island and New York, where we connect with you as human to human, first. Each of us on the team are trained in psychotherapy as well as advanced methods to helping you attain you therapy goals, but that science, research stuff comes second. Our primarily focus is that you feel comfortable with your therapist, and that you can settle into the work from a place of ease, trust and hope.
Relationships are where we heal, and that is why we take a strong relational approach.
In terms of our clinical skills, we integrate a variety of the most current evidence based therapy methods to help treat you. Be it your struggle with anxiety, the burden of depression, finding ways to relieve your trauma symptoms, or helping to support you with to any mental health challenges many teens and adults face, today, we are here for you.
We approach each client is an individual and so we stay curious about you, and as we get to know you, decide which treatment approach will help you benefit the most out of treatment. We focus on clinical outcomes, and symptoms relief, so we periodically check in on your treatment progress to ensure that you are maximizing your experience in therapy, and are improving your overall quality of life.
Our Values
Respect: We believe that everyone- children, teens, and adults deserve respect, validation, kindness, compassion and love. As a team, we respect each other. And as your therapists, we respect you, for being honest with yourself and for coming to therapy. Respect allows for true shifts to take place, and for secure and open relationships to develop.
Trauma Informed Care: From your very first call with our staff, our intention is for you to feel heard, connected to and supported. As a therapy practice, our approach to healing is that we look at the symptoms or behaviors you’re struggling with as coping methods you’ve needed to use to survive, but there is nothing wrong with you. We appreciate your story, your strengths and struggles and we are here to help you heal the tough things you’ve experienced, and help you feel, and function, a whole lot better. We anchor ourselves in trauma-informed care which means that we hold the bigger picture of who you are: and we hold trust and hope for healing. We’ve helped countless clients, and we are ready to help you as well.
Time: Your time is precious, and we want you to be able to live your best life. Therapy is not meant to be a lifelong process. Your time in therapy is meant to help you engage in good work, achieve your treatment goals, and go on with living your life- with the improved functioning and wellness you’ve attained.
Relationships: The relationship that one has with their therapist is the single most important factor for change to take place. We create a compassionate and nurturing environment to foster healthy relationships with our clients, as well as other people or practitioners that may be involved in the treatment process.
Joy & Playfulness Therapy can be tough, and that’s why we believe in bringing lightness and playfulness int the room as well! Life can be rought, and therapy does require some deep diving- but we can do it with balance, some laughter and playfulness. Healing happens when we can hold both, the pain and also the joy. We are here to help you do both! This is your place to heal.
We are a counseling practice focused on you and your well-being.
In fact, the majority of our clients have found their lives to be more meaningful and rich after therapy - more than they ever thought possible. Therapy is like a workout at the gym - for your brain. And the same way that exercising your core muscles is key to physical stability, exercising your brain is the key to emotional stability.
