Everyone experiences emotions and situations in life that can be overwhelming, burdening, and anxiety-ridden. Many of these symptoms reflect inner conflicts and desires, but also early attachment patterns. Talking to a professional can help you develop insight and change patterns. My training as a psychodynamic psychotherapist and my previous work in neuroscience have shaped my practice philosophy. I believe that we naturally strive toward growth, safety and making relationships fulfilling. I provide a space where we can explore emotional conflicts, and make meaning of them--the basis for change and developing healthier ways of coping.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, relationship stress, or major transitions begin taking up more space than expected. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck and disconnected, or unsure of what’s wrong, but know something doesn’t feel sustainable. I work with adults who may appear high-functioning on the outside but feel anxious, emotionally drained, or caught in unhelpful patterns inside. My approach is warm, collaborative, and thoughtful, blending empathy with thoughtful challenge. Together we build insight to strengthen boundaries, and develop healthier ways to cope so you can feel more grounded and confident over time.

Life is filled with moments of immense beauty, and intense grief. It can be challenging to remain sane in the midst of such high highs and low lows. I learned this first hand as a Marine Corps officer, and as a cancer caregiver for my stepfather. Those journeys led me to my career at major cancer institutions where I have provided counseling to families for over seven years.
In addition to supporting families through the cancer trajectory, I help men of all ages find answers to questions like "What does it mean to be a man?" and "How can I express masculinity in a way that focuses on love, not self destruction?"

Sometimes we may find ourselves feeling stuck in our lives or alone in our struggles. Perhaps we feel isolated when we share these difficulties with others, only to feel invalidated in our experiences or identity. It's even more challenging and isolating when we don't have those connections to reach out to. Carrying feelings such as shame in who we are, or discomfort being in our own skin, is a weight on us impacting everyday lives and our relationships. Through reflection and self-compassion we will embrace self-acceptance in knowing you're valid in who you are, and you can live your best and most authentic self.

Life can feel overwhelming — whether you're a teen figuring things out, a parent trying to hold it all together, or a young adult navigating what comes next. You don't have to have it figured out to ask for help.

It just won't stop. Life feels like a constant fight to stay above water. The sadness, the pain, the monotony of it all, is dragging you down. It's a constant fight against depression, but you aren't sure why. Once upon a time, you felt the possibility of happiness and joy, but now it's all about going through the motions, fighting against the sadness. And it's getting harder and harder to fake it. You're starting to wonder about the meaning of life; what the purpose of all of this is. You've tried coaching, talking to friends, maybe even some therapists, but nothing is sticking and you desperately need help getting out of this fog.

The curious paradox is when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change. What I am is enough if I would only be it openly.' C.Rogers. This quote is at the core of my work as a psychotherapist. I believe that the path to healing begins with the experience of being truly seen and celebrated with all your identities and parts that make the whole of you. I offer an affirming and collaborative space for the exploration of Self, connecting to your Divine within through mind-body-spirit practices so that you can move beyond the unloving narratives getting in the way of embodying your true Self and curating the life that you envision.

Hello! My name is Thérèse, I am a dual-licensed therapist in New York and New Jersey.
I work with adults, adolescents, and couples and I have specialized training in treating eating disorders/disordered eating, post-traumatic stress disorders, anxiety, and depression. The majority of individuals I work with are those seeking therapy simply because they want to learn more - about themselves, about a relationship they could be in, about a "stuckness" they feel, etc.

Anxiety, trauma and OCD can feel like you’re in a tug of war with your thoughts and feelings, making feeling present and connected challenging. Overtime fear can become the driver of your life as you seek ways to escape and control unpleasant thoughts, memories, emotions and sensations. While these ways of coping are understandable, you may find that they are limiting, and the life you want remains out of reach.
Fortunately, there are ways for you to create more agency and fulfillment in your life. Together we can build helpful ways for you to soothe, connect with the present moment and move towards what matters to you most.

Hi, my name is Evangelos, but you can call me Evan! At the moment I am practicing through Telehealth only. If this is okay with you, please read on! The foundation of my approach to therapy is person centered and based on genuine human interaction. I understand that not every individual benefits from the same intervention, and it's for this reason I bring an eclectic tool kit, including but not limited to: Acceptance-Based, Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, Emotionally Focused, and Relaxation strategies. My earliest exposure and training in mental health was in Hypnosis, and the interaction between our conscious and subconscious mind.
