New York Psychotherapist Colette Dowling, LCSWBelow, New York Psychotherapist Colette Dowling describes how she practices psychotherapy in her Chelsea office in Manhattan. "Perhaps you want to expand your life, have richer and less problematic relationships, do work that is more gratifying and more engaging of your creativity. In short, you want a better life, and it's begun to feel as if time is passing you by. In therapy, you and I will work together so you may develop the courage to stand behind yourself, while also enjoying intimate relationships. We will find ways of listening to your deepest voice. The goal is to help you gain inner freedom--the freedom to be yourself, to love genuinely, and to do your best work.
Incessant self-questioning and self-doubt can be exhausting. Therapy can help. What I have to offer comes from a lifetime of experience, as well as training that allows me to help my patients get underneath the things they know about themselves to a deeper truth. With that they become stronger, better able to cope with the challenges they face, and better able to express their innermost desires and talents. My patients and I work together to help them develop the courage to stand behind their intelligence and creativity, while also enjoying intimate relationships in which they feel loving and vulnerable. In therapy we discover solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. The ability to feel safe is of primary importance. My office provides an atmosphere of warmth and calm. Drawing from both new and traditional approaches to psychotherapy I use a variety of styles and techniques, offering what I think wll be most helpful to a particular individual." Supplementing my clinical expertise is a long career in research and writing. In addition to THE CINDERELLA COMPLEX, some of my other books are: YOU MEAN I DON'T HAVE TO FEEL THIS WAY?: NEW HELP FOR DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND ADDICTION, and THE FRAILTY MYTH: REDEFINING THE PHYSICAL POTENTIAL OF WOMEN and GIRLS New York Psychotherapist Colette Dowling is a graduate of The Smith College School for Social Work, where she received her masters degree.
