Therapists in New York

Many people find themselves stuck in repetitive patterns of behavior and thinking that do not serve their well-being. Therapy helps to identify and examine these patterns in order to understand how and why they affect our sense of self, our moods, and our relationships in negative ways. Together we will uncover new ways of thinking and relating, and learn how to apply them in your life. The therapy room is a healing and safe space in which we can collaboratively explore the obstacles preventing you from fully achieving your life goals and break the painful patterns of relating to yourself and others.

I offer individual psychotherapy for adults in Queens, NY and online. In my collaborative work with clients I help people gain more insight in themselves and their relationships, examine the role of the past into the present and bring attention and curiosity to different parts of themselves in order to help them feel empowered to create the changes they want to make. I also use Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful technique for reprocessing trauma if needed.

If you are a person seeking a therapist who will be honest, straightforward, and knowledgeable, that person is me. I will be your partner, advocate, and inner voice on your journey to peace, contentment, and self fulfillment. I will also provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment to explore the core of your true self.

It takes a lot of courage to ask for help. All of us are trying the best we can, but we still get stuck sometimes. If you’re struggling and burdened with worries and sadness, you’re not alone. There isn’t something wrong with you. You might be relying on ways to get through that no longer work. I’m a psychologist, and I specialize in compassionate skills-based therapies that help you get out of your head and make changes towards a more satisfying life. We’ll work on mindful awareness, which reminds us life only unfolds in the present, even if we’re pulled into past regrets or future worries.

My belief is that the therapeutic process is a collaborative effort between the client and the therapist, and that clients are experts of their own lives. I am simply here to facilitate the process of overcoming challenges, helping clients reach their life goals in a safe, non judgmental, relaxed environment. Together we will work on building strong interpersonal relationships, increasing self esteem to reach your highest potential, and coping skills to manage anxiety, depression, anger, and other difficulties that may challenge you. My goal as a therapist is to empower my clients to live a happy, fulfilled, and meaningful life that uncovers their "ideal self."

I specialize in working with creative highly sensitive people who deal with depression and anxiety. Together we will process your experiences, change unhelpful narratives, and develop harmony and balance within yourself. I work as witness in helping you develop a more nuanced inner dialogue to move from a place of confusion and disconnection towards self compassion and healing. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, Sex Positive, Spiritually affirming, and work from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, multiculturally sensitive, & intersectional approach towards embodied healing and life empowerment.

Have you been feeling down or anxious? Do you have marital/relationship stressors and feel like things will never change? Does your child experience behavioral challenges and/or has a hard time communicating/socializing with peers? Perhaps parenting has been overwhelming and you need a safe space to talk and find new ways to manage your emotions and situations?

Perhaps you are having trouble controlling your anxiety or feelings of sadness. Maybe you are struggling in your relationships or you second-guess yourself. Perhaps you are going through changes in your professional or personal life that cause additional stress. Psychotherapy can help in meaningful ways. Many of us feel only those with severe problems can benefit from counseling. It is not a sign of weakness to seek out therapy but a strength to enlist experts in overcoming the impediments to a more fulfilling life.

I am a highly experienced psychologist, who worked in the Financial District for many years. A graduate of Columbia University, I work with adults, older adolescents, families and couples. My approach is practical and strength-based, helping people develop the skills to effectively address immediate concerns, as well as long-standing problems. My areas of expertise include the treatment of depression and anxiety, trauma, entering and maintaining romantic relationships, managing family dynamics, and negotiating work environments.

With my hopeful and positive outlook on change, I strive to help people achieve a fresh and holistic perspective on their lives. By working collaboratively in psychotherapy, I specialize in helping people heal wounds left by past relationships, establish and deepen relationships with others, develop a better understanding of self, and improve overall quality of life, including decreased stress and anxiety, an increasingly satisfying professional life, and reduction of physical pain.

Each person brings to therapy a unique life story that deserves to be heard in a trusting and respectful environment. We will spend the first sessions gaining an understanding of who you are and what brings you to therapy. Together, we will develop a tailored plan with realistic goals that address your specific needs and desires. We will move through the sessions at a pace that feels safe and meaningful and we will build a therapeutic collaboration that enables us to explore your thoughts and feelings with nonjudgmental curiosity and kind openness to your life experiences.
