At the heart of our approach is the recognition that each individual is unique, with their own set of experiences, struggles, and goals. As a licensed psychologist and Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) therapist, I, Dr. Jonathan Entis, am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment for patients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
Our Services
As a seasoned therapist, I have the expertise to treat a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, personality disorders, trauma, and addictive behaviors. My approach is deeply rooted in ISTDP, which has been shown to be highly effective in tackling complex psychological issues. Through ISTDP, I work closely with patients to help them identify and overcome the underlying resistances that prevent them from achieving their full potential.
What is ISTDP?
ISTDP is a revolutionary psychotherapy approach developed by Dr. Habib Davanloo, MD. This modality is designed to compassionately handle the resistances that arise within each of us to exploring our true feelings and the origin of our symptoms. By working directly with these resistances, ISTDP helps patients break free from their limitations and unlock their inner strengths and capacities.
My Approach
As a therapist, I believe that every patient is a unique individual with their own set of strengths, challenges, and goals. My approach is tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient. I work collaboratively with patients to understand the root causes of their symptoms and develop strategies to overcome them. Through a combination of education, support, and skills-building, I empower patients to take an active role in their healing and personal growth.
Patient Testimonials
"I had been pushing my friends and family away, dwelling on past mistakes and unresolved issues, and struggling with loneliness and anxiety about the future. Dr. Entis's ISTDP approach helped me better understand unbefitting decisions I made in the past by pushing me to relive experiences and pay close attention to my feelings. I learned how, when, and why I put walls up with people and the disconnect it creates with others and within myself. As I practice listening to my feelings before making decisions, I feel consistently in control of my actions and have significantly less anxiety."
Our Mission
At our practice, our mission is to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental, and supportive environment for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. We are dedicated to helping individuals overcome their struggles and achieve their full potential.
