Getting to know Matthew Aboulafia

Happiness. I can, without any hesitation, guarantee psychotherapy’s ability to make you happier. Every day I work with my clients, they are liberated from their inhibitions and reluctance to live the fullest life. How can this be? By taking advantage of our most potent success ally: confidence. With enhanced confidence, every aspect of your life will fall into place. Symptoms—i.e., anxiety, depression, despair, reluctance—will be mitigated, lifted, or simply dissipate. A symptom or any troubling state results from an unfulfilled life: as we become fulfilled, we become healthier and symptom-free. Happiness-building psychotherapy concerns two areas: first, enabling the client to understand what irrational thoughts and feelings inhibit them from living life fully; secondly, helping them discover new life strategies to replace the old, ineffective, irrational ways so they will find confidence and direction in all aspects of their lives. For 39 years I have been in practice. For any dedicated psychotherapist, the years of experience translate into the treatment process becoming more and more wonderful. Why? We, the clinicians, become more and more proficient in transforming, for the better, another’s life. As the saying goes, happiness begets happiness. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and a Certificate in Psychoanalysis from the New York Psychoanalytic Society & Institute.
