Therapy for Moms in Westchester

For the mom balancing a city workday with a family calendar that does not stop.

Who This Is For

Who I see from Westchester

I see Westchester moms who may have a city job, a Metro-North commute and a full set of responsibilities waiting at home. Being good at planning does not mean the planning costs you nothing.

School expectations, activities and work can pull in different directions. You might feel you are letting someone down no matter which need comes first. I offer a place in the week to talk about that pressure and decide what deserves your attention.

The Everyday Load

What life here can add to the load

  1. The city workday

    A city job can mean leaving early and returning with little energy. We can talk about what happens when work still expects you to be available at home.

  2. Metro-North timing

    Train times can shape family handoffs. When a meeting runs over or the plan changes, the worry about getting home may follow you through the afternoon.

  3. School pressure

    You may hear strong opinions about how much children should be doing. I am interested in how those expectations affect you, not in judging your family decisions.

  4. Activity calendars

    Keeping track of practices, lessons and rides can become its own job. We can look at who carries that work and what you want to share or reduce.

A Little Room for You

What we work on

We can address anxiety, parenting stress and changes in how you see yourself. I help you name the concern in plain words, then choose a goal that fits your week. I am a mother of four and bring more than 20 years of social work experience.

How Sessions Fit

How video sessions fit a Westchester week

Video gives us a way to meet without another commute. Privacy at home might mean a closed door and headphones. A safely parked car in a parking lot can be another option if others cannot hear your conversation.

A lunch break or after bedtime may be a better fit than trying to squeeze therapy between rides. Day, evening and weekend times are available. We discuss the time you can protect, with a camera and a steady connection.

In CBT, we examine thoughts that keep you feeling responsible for every outcome. DBT skills give us ways to handle strong emotions and communicate limits. I ask what you notice between sessions so we can adjust rather than assume a skill works for everyone.

45 to 50 minutes by video

Questions

Questions from Westchester

Do I need to live in Westchester?
No. Anyone located in New York State during the session can see me. This page describes some concerns that may come up here, not a residency requirement.
Can I attend from my workplace?
Yes, if you have a private room, enough uninterrupted time and a reliable connection. We can discuss whether a lunch break would give you enough room to talk.
Can we work on sharing the planning?
Yes. We can identify the tasks you carry, practice asking for help and discuss boundaries. We keep the goals realistic for your household rather than promising a particular response from others.

You can bring the whole week into the conversation.
