Therapists in 10001

Hi! I'm Jennifer. I help Black women, Indigenous women, and women of color who are living with depression feel more vital, well, and whole. As a registered dance/movement psychotherapist and holistic nutritionist, I address depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns using a combination of body-based creative expression, mindfulness practices, and evidence-based behavioral techniques (like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy).

At times we find ourselves unhappy and stuck in unproductive and often painful patterns of thinking, feeling, behaving and relating. Through a collaborative, interactive therapeutic relationship I help people achieve greater self-understanding and self-awareness so they can change and grow, and find a way forward into happier and healthier ways of being.

Are you worried that your child has a potential learning disability, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, or Autism Spectrum Disorder? Are you concerned about developmental delays? Does your child needs extra time in order to perform well on standardized tests (i.e. SAT)? Is your child displaying signs of Posttraumatic Stress after a traumatic event? Do they struggle with addictions or other behavioral problems? A comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation will help your child achieve their potential. Following the evaluation, you will receive a report detailing the diagnosis and any further weaknesses that your child may be experiencing. Clear solutions including recommendations for home and school will be provided.

Do you or your child often feel anxious, or find it hard to trust anyone? You can’t stop thinking about what happened and you try to push those thoughts away. You can’t sleep or sleep too much. You worry if you talk about it, you will make things worse. You’ll unravel, start crying and never stop. These are some of the common symptoms associated with traumatic life events. As a nationally recognized expert in trauma treatment, I utilize and train others in evidence based methods to enable individuals and families overcome the impact of painful life experiences or trauma. By reading this now you are taking the first, important step.

Therapy is a path to change, growth and healing so you can live the life you want. Our lives turn in unexpected ways, at times it causes us anxieties and discomfort. As we all face emotional and professional conflicts that leave us feeling lonely, unfulfilled or stuck, it's hard to keep hope when you feel trapped by longstanding patterns in your relationships, thoughts, or career. I believe that change is possible. Psychotherapy speaks in many voices. In a safe and non-judgmental environment, my aim is to help you understand the roadblocks, both past and present, impacting your actions and feelings.

I believe people benefit most when psychotherapy offers a space that invites curiosity, empathy, and introspection. To alleviate emotional pain, sometimes we have to look inwards at our ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
