Welcome to My Comfort Zone Therapy
I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of New York dedicated to the treatment of adolescents, adults, and couples. My professional focus resides in the comprehensive management of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship dynamics, life transitions, and career aspirations.
My therapeutic approach stands as a testament to its uniqueness, prioritizing the establishment of a secure and nurturing environment wherein clients are empowered to engage with their concerns. Central to this approach is the cultivation of a therapeutic alliance that encourages clients to actively participate in sessions, fostering a platform for meaningful change.
At the core of my philosophy, I recognize therapy as a profound journey of self-discovery, facilitating the understanding of individual sources of contentment and equipping individuals with the tools to adeptly navigate challenges. This transformative process aims to harness the potential for optimal outcomes during challenging phases, underscoring the vital role of self-discovery in achieving lasting well-being.
Our sessions are conducted remotely via telehealth using internet access on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. This lets me care for you without an in-person office visit and allows people who can’t find the time for therapy to meet from the comfort of their own home.
Counseling Services
Adolescents
This developmental stage can be a challenge for both parents and their children. Whether you are dealing with family conflict, challenges in school, or other behavioral channels, I will help give your child a safe place to grow and work through their issues.
Adults
Individual therapy, also known as counseling or psychotherapy, is an empowering journey of self-awareness and growth. In one-on-one sessions, we will explore the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors guiding your life.
Couples
Few couples expect they will ever need counseling and few come to counseling at the start of a problem. Most couples seek help when they are in a crisis. No matter when or why you seek it out, know that there is always help and relief.

“Ari’s technique of therapy is fun, creative, effective and he makes you feel very comfortable to open up. He is also very direct and solution focused. I learn something new in every session and he makes it very easy to understand. Initially I did feel like 45 mins is short but if I planned it well, I was able to address all the concerns I needed for that visit. He is flexible with time and date too. A pleasure to work with!”
