Covid Update
Presently, I’m seeing patients in my office as well as continuing phone and teletherapy when preferred. Proof of vaccination is required for in-office appointments.
Meeting with the therapist before beginning therapy for a consultation or interview is extremely important. Know that you are in the driver’s seat – you are allowed to consider different therapists and counselors to find a good fit for you. Be sure to choose someone who you feel safe and comfortable with – since you’ll be sharing deep parts of yourself with this person, you’ll want to feel respected and understood by them. Get a sense of their background and experience and have them explain how they approach helping their clients. Does this sound like an approach you’re comfortable with? Ask any questions you have and be upfront about your concerns. Most importantly, trust your gut; if you’re not comfortable, it’s okay to continue the interviewing process.

Individual sessions are $125 for a standard 50-minute session. I also offer longer sessions when appropriate, and often encourage couples to attend 80-minute sessions whenever possible.
You may do this in two ways. You may contact me and make an appointment online or you may also call me at (914) 768-9114.
That depends on your reason for therapy, and your level of discomfort. Most clients are seen every week in the beginning, and as treatment progresses, less frequently over time. Some clients come several times a week in the beginning to lay groundwork, or when in crisis. We want you to come as often or as rarely as best suits your situation.
“Since starting to work with Carol, the communication with my husband has really improved. I feel much more hopeful about our marriage and am enjoying life a lot more.”
“My collaboration with Carol has been the most valuable “work” of my life. This has been life-altering, and the most important thing I could have decided to do for myself.”
“Working with Carol has helped me strengthen my self concept and break down barriers that have held me back for years. I owe so much of my success to her.”
“I’ve been in therapy on and off for most of my life and this is the first time that I am making lasting progress. With Carol’s help, I am able to see the cause of my anxiety and depression.”
“Carol has given me the tools I need to fight against the negative thinking. As I continue to work on myself, life has become easier and less overwhelming. I am able to fully enjoy the good days and have all the support I need for the bad ones.”
