Dr. Heather Carpenter-Sarmiento, PsyD

Dr. Heather Carpenter-Sarmiento, PsyD

Psychologist
NY
I am a licensed psychologist with a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University and more than eighteen years of experience in a variety of therapeutic environments. I am an expert in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, and stress. I strive to develop a safe and stable therapeutic relationship while customizing my approach to fit each patient, favoring an integrative effort that emphasizes overall health and wellness. I have an excellent track record of success with patients who experience anxiety issues (general, social, panic, etc.), poor self-esteem, work-related stress, and burnout. Additionally, I have significant experience working with patients suffering from trauma and PTSD, as well as medical comorbidities.

Getting to know Dr. Heather Carpenter-Sarmiento

I am a licensed psychologist with a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Long Island University and more than eighteen years of experience in a variety of therapeutic environments. I am an expert in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, and stress. I strive to develop a safe and stable therapeutic relationship while customizing my approach to fit each patient, favoring an integrative effort that emphasizes overall health and wellness. I have an excellent track record of success with patients who experience anxiety issues (general, social, panic, etc.), poor self-esteem, work-related stress, and burnout. Additionally, I have significant experience working with patients suffering from trauma and PTSD, as well as medical comorbidities.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach can be described as positive, highlighting each patient’s strengths and values, working towards symptom reduction, as well as improved self-care, self-esteem, and self-actualization. Working together, clients should expect a collaborative relationship built on mutual respect and trust. I believe the key to a good therapist / client relationship is communication, safety, trust, and respect.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I will implement therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, supportive psychotherapy, and Mindfulness Based Practices.
