ELIZABETH BUSSIAN PSYCHOTHERAPY White Plains, NY

Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through counseling and treatment, we are able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life. 

CBT focuses on challenging and changing unhelpful cognitive distortions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs and attitudes) and behaviors improving emotional regulation, and the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems.

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. EMDR is a form of psychotherapy in which the patient is asked to recall distressing images while generating one type of bilateral sensory input such as side to side eye movements or hand tapping.

"Romantic love delivers us in to the passionate arms of someone who will ultimately trigger the same frustrations we had with our parents, but for the best possible reason! Doing so brings our childhood wounds to the surface so they can be healed" - Harville Hendrix. Partnership therapy takes a relationship approach rather than an individual approach to problem solving within the union.  This therapy focuses on collaboratively healing childhood wounds that couples share. Safety is created by learning how to communicate without blame and negativity to achieve transformation and healing.
