Leonard J. Ferrante

When family and friends are not enough, allow me to help you find the answers. With 30 years of combined clinical training and experience in Florida & New York at Maimonides Medical Center in Adult & Child Psychiatry, Syosset Central School District, and in private practice with specialties in Psychoanalysis and Child Psychology, I have been helping adults and children improve their emotional well-being. As a Nationally Certified School Psychologist I also administer psycho-educational tests to find solutions to academic problems that may lead to educational interventions and accommodations for public and private schools, and college entrance examinations.Psychotherapy allows us the unique opportunity to work together to pay close attention to and clarify the meaning of your thoughts and feelings, behavior, interpersonal experiences, and dreams, all toward the goal of alleviating conflict, enhancing self-understanding and acceptance, and expanding your capacity for work, love and play.If you are burdened with self-defeating thoughts, depression, or guilt, inhibited by anxiety, challenged by your children, or when relationships do not yield the pleasure you desire, then the path to psychological health and satisfying relationships begins with a phone call. So call me today to discuss your concerns.
