Therapists in 10011

My clients come to therapy with a desire to better understand themselves, their patterns, and the implicit beliefs they hold about themselves and the world. They are deep thinkers and feelers with a great appreciation for humor as part of the therapeutic process. They are often striving to become (and befriend) the best version of themselves. Together, we balance insights and perspectives with tools that guide transformation and growth.

As an existential therapist specializing in OCD, depression, and anxiety, I invite you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation. In our sessions, we'll explore the depth of your existence, including your thoughts, emotions, and being. Together, we'll confront the existential dilemmas that underlie your challenges, uncovering meaning and purpose amidst the chaos. With a compassionate and person-centered approach, I aim to guide you towards greater self-awareness, acceptance, and empowerment. Let's ease our way into a profound exploration of the self, illuminating the path towards healing and wholeness.

In therapy, I create a comfortable environment for you by prioritizing trust, compassion, and understanding. We can collaborate together on establishing your treatment goals. My clinical approach involves implementing sustainable behavioral changes, new thought patterns, higher self-esteem, and effective mindfulness techniques. I work with clients who may be experiencing anxious or intrusive thought and behavioral patterns, depressive symptoms, life changes, and/or relationship issues.

My approach to talk therapy is based on identifying and integrating parts of the individual and their experiences to foster self-awareness, practical solutions and advance personal growth. I work with adults on a wide range of challenges from emotion regulation, attachment patterns, grief and interpersonal systems to more clinical issues such as anxiety, depression and trauma related disorders. I have a wide range of experiences that include facilitating group therapy, working with refugee/migrant communities, LGBTQIA clients and individual/family therapy related to substance use disorders and treatment.

On occasion, we all encounter discontinuities in our psychological health, and can benefit from the sensitivity and empathy of a therapist in such moments. We all experience fear and anxiety at times. We all form attachments and struggle with the pain of separation and loss. We all find ways of coping during childhood that worked for us back then, but perhaps aren't quite as functional right now. Whatever is currently unsettling your own emotional balance, I’m here to offer a steady presence, shining a light on these shared human challenges as we guide you towards calmer waters.

If you are seeking therapy at this point in your life, you may be feeling that your usual way of coping isn't working anymore. This may lead to you feeling alienated and lonely, frustrated and angry, hopeless, confused, striving for perfection, or otherwise stuck. It may simply be that your usual way of being is made up of out-of-date strategies - what was once adaptive is now causing you stress and unnecessary suffering. Let me help you learn how to start relaxing the struggle. Our work together will provide an opportunity for self-knowledge, tolerance for difficult emotions, and acceptance of your own humanity.

Psychotherapy is, most honestly, a very remarkable and often surprising kind of 'conversation.' The distinction being that when we have a 'conversation,' we only know where it will begin, but not where it will end. The 'getting there,' the movement toward 'the end,' is often a thought-provoking, pleasurable, funny, sad, profound experience that changes people in wholly positive ways. When therapist and patient develop a good working relationship, transformative things can happen. My work centers around creating a serious, useful, and private space to begin exploring the depths of what causes you to suffer, or feel misunderstood.

Acknowledging a problem in your life is an important first step toward greater freedom and happiness. If you are reading this, I assume you may be ready to make the courageous decision to address it. Studies have shown that talk therapy can be a highly effective means of dealing with life problems, and of achieving meaningful and lasting change. While each treatment is unique depending on particular needs, psychotherapy may be understood generally as a collaborative process that works to clarify the deeper sources of your suffering, and to enable the constructive choices that can put your life on a new foundation.

I strongly believe in the collaborative nature of therapy - the creative engagement between the client and therapist, working toward a common goal: to help bring a greater sense of well being to you, the client - to your life, your psyche, your body, your relationships, your career, your home. I have a background in film, which makes working with people from the arts a natural fit (though I love to work with clients from all walks of life). Relationship concerns, career concerns, depression, anxiety, existential questioning, trauma, illness, bereavement and addictions are some of the areas in which I have experience.
