It’s normal for individuals and couples to encounter struggles. Perhaps you've gone as far as you can trying on your own to resolve personal or marital distress without resolution. Your coping strategies are not working, and too often you feel distressed. You can choose to be proactive and get resourced by a professional counseling so that you can start on your journey toward change. I’m also able to integrate a Christian perspective for those on a faith-based journey. We can exclude this approach for those not ascribing to any particular spiritual orientation, I'll apply sound clinical expertise in a spirit of warmth and care.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in New York City. I have been practicing for over 30 years. I work in an insight oriented and supportive therapeutic environment concentrating on ego functioning and interpersonal relationships. I deal with issues of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, mood regulation and the management of emotions and conflict. My therapeutic goal is to help each patient to develop more self-awareness and insight so that they can make better choices and achieve more personal satisfaction - while decreasing the anxiety and conflicts that limit their daily emotional experience and self-confidence.

Are you finding it challenging to manage anxiety? Are you navigating a significant transition (i.e. becoming a parent, experiencing changes in your relationships, graduating school, etc.)? Do you battle a harsh inner critic or struggle with low self-esteem? Do you struggle to set boundaries or navigate conflict? If any of these resonate, you're not alone and I’m glad you found your way here. I help people work through daily stressors while understanding the impact of past experiences. I am passionate about my work as a therapist and I am deeply committed to helping people make positive changes in their lives.

I work primarily with young adults and millennials moving through radical life transitions such as moving, beginning/ending relationships, career changes, and grief and loss. Life transitions, even positive ones, can leave us feeling stuck, alone, confused, anxious, and even despairing. My treatment with you will be tailored to your goals, preferences, and desired outcomes for therapy. I treat each of my clients with respect and provide an atmosphere full of safety and free of judgment.

Teens, young adults and their families have been through an incredible amount of stress the past few years - and continue to do so. I specialize in working with high school and college-age students as well as adults struggling with issues that affect them on a daily basis and which might prevent them from moving forward in their lives. This can include anxiety, depression, sadness and poor self-esteem. My work extends to parents seeking guidance in supporting their children with issues such as school refusal, friends, peer pressure and anger. This may include transitions to high school, college or post-college life.

I’m Sarah, a psychodynamic and relational therapist. Our sessions are a safe place where we work together to help explore your current thoughts, feelings, emotions, and past experiences. I create warm, genuine environments you can feel safe to be your true self and we can identify your specific strengths, challenges, needs, and goals. Working collaboratively we get to focus on building self understanding, improving your life, overcoming challenges, and have a few laughs on the way.

Clients often arrive at my door carrying it all on their backs wishing to make sense of their experiences, and their stories. They are uncertain of how they've gotten to be where they are. They wish to know themselves wholly. They wish to live deliberately and to know where they belong. They hope to trust themselves. They crave an authentic connection to self. They seek permission to rest. They long for freedom and to feel empowered when they look in the mirror. They have been through the thick of it, have had to become resilient and feel called to finally come home to themselves with love and gentleness.

The decision to engage in therapy takes courage. I view therapy as the first step in exploring our experiences– really trying to understand the dynamics within our relationships whether it is with family, friends, intimate partners, or colleagues. You may be feeling sad, anxious, lonely & not sure of a way to move forward. Together we can help you understand your feelings better, so that you can gain insight into your fears & frustrations, past emotional wounds, & your hopes & wishes for greater life satisfaction. My specialties include: depression, parenting, grief/loss, relationships & caring/coping with sick family members.

Dr. Backfield-Weiss brings considerable clinical experience, intelligent understanding, emotional warmth, and thoughtful creativity to her clinical work with culturally diverse adults, couples, and families struggling with unproductive behavior patterns; unstable mood and emotional states; the pain of combined medical and psychological distress; and in helping individuals negotiate all forms of creative and emotional expression. Her experience also encompasses extensive work in the field of rehabilitation medicine, the teaching and training of doctoral students at Columbia University, and her own training in fine arts and design.

Whether you struggle with interpersonal conflicts, have issues with self esteem, or social anxiety, my goal is to create a peaceful place for a nurturing, supportive bond between therapist & client. My aim is not to change who or what you are, but rather explore how you respond and relate to your external world to create a perception that better serves you in your daily life. My approach to therapy focuses on relationships by creating a safe & supportive environment for exploration and growth, where clients can feel understood and validated.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a National Certified Counselor, I focus on the needs of my clients. I am a goal-oriented therapist who uses an integrative approach in helping individuals achieve their personal goals. My therapeutic method is based on the individual needs of the client. I encourage self-empowerment and skill-building, and work collaboratively with clients for a solution-focused approach to help achieve goals and resolve inner conflicts. I work effectively with individuals and couples to facilitate the development and fine-tuning of coping skills that can be utilized throughout life.

Are you feeling anxious? Do you feel misunderstood? Do you have negative beliefs about yourself that are holding you back? If so, finding a supportive and understanding therapist can make all the difference. Whether you are going through a life transition, relationship difficulty, feeling a lack of self-trust, or seeking relief from anxiety, I’m here to welcome and support you!

Whether this is your first time in therapy or you are continuing your therapy journey, I'm glad you are here. Life sure can have a way of getting complicated or messy. Relationships change, life events happen, depression or anxiety creep up, daily stress becomes unmanageable, self-esteem is challenged, the list can go on… I am here to offer individualized, solution-focused therapy in a safe, supportive and non-judgmental manner. I believe therapy can foster healing, recovery, growth and change. It is my hope that you will feel empowered to embrace your goals and work towards wellbeing that you deserve.

Change is hard for most people. And, seeking real change can feel daunting. If you are ready to dip your toe into a process that can bring about substantive, meaningful change to a specific circumstance and/or various aspects of your life, rather than continually seeking and applying quick fixes, you are in the right place. People often seek therapy when they are at a loss for what to do, regarding a specific situation that is troubling them or grappling with the same issues over and over that never change. And, going it alone or relying on well-meaning friends is just not enough. There is no shame in seeking outside help.

Reaching out for help can be really hard. I want to help you to overcome your struggles and have a better understanding of what may be causing them. Clients I work with often discuss relationship issues, family conflict, stress related to school or work, feelings of depression and anxiety, and substance abuse and addiction issues.

Hi, my name is Aurora and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with twenty plus years experience. During this time, I have developed a specialization for working with adults who are often successful in some areas of their life however feel stuck or unhappy in other areas often due to trauma. I work with clients who are willing to engage in the therapeutic process to better understand their history and unique story and to process maladaptive dynamics and body memories so they can live a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Do you find that your children and your partner can often trigger you more than any other relationships you have? They happen to be the people you care about the most and yet they can also bring out the worst in you at times. So many people notice this pattern of overwhelm, reactivity and regret/shame/self-criticism when parenting their children and with their significant others. You are not alone AND you don’t need to continue to live this way. Therapy can help you understand your triggers, where they stem from, and how to respond to them in healthier ways so that you can become closer to the people that you care about.
