Attachment-based Therapists in 11215

I believe that therapy is a space for us to tackle life’s difficulties as well as celebrate life, find joy, and build self-compassion. I provide empathic, nonjudgmental psychotherapy, focused on deepening a sense of self-awareness, gaining insight into your emotional experiences, and empowering you to live a more fulfilling life. My therapeutic approach is rooted in relational and attachment-based theories. I frequently use humanistic, and behavioral interventions tailored to meet the needs of the individual or couple I am working with. I strive to create authentic and collaborative relationships with everyone I work with.

Life can be overwhelming. Finding a therapist shouldn't add to that stress. Each one of us deserves access to a safe, judgment-free space. As a therapist, I fiercely defend that space for my clients, and I hope to meet you there with warmth, authenticity, and humor. Having served the diverse population of this city in medical, educational, and non-profit settings, I am sensitive to the complex New York experience while acknowledging that your journey is unique. I offer a trauma-informed, culturally-sensitive approach for adults and young adults struggling with stress, anxiety, or depression.

Hello! I'm Erica (she/hers), a psychotherapist and art therapist dedicated to supporting individuals in the NY area. My therapeutic approach is characterized by warmth and compassion, aimed at assisting those in their early adult life in navigating the complexities of relationships with others and themselves. Throughout my career, I've worked in non-profit agencies, gaining valuable experience with diverse age groups and diagnoses. In my private practice, I specialize in helping clients address challenges related to anxiety, depression, relationships, and unexpected life transitions.

Hello! I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in substance use and trauma-related mental health concerns. I work from a psychodynamic and attachment-based perspective while drawing from my experience with a wide variety of treatment approaches, including harm reduction, CBT, Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention, and empirically validated treatments for PTSD. My focus is on building a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic space in which we can investigate how early relationship models may inform current interpersonal patterns, with the goal of helping you to relate to others with greater flexibility and choice.

Are you on the journey to find your "SELF?" Are you have difficulty feeling connected, confident, curious, compassionate, calm, courageous, or clear about your next steps? If you answered "yes" you are in the right place. I provide holistic anti-racist & racially affirming therapy for high-achieving BIPOC professionals that centers social justice and decolonization. I support BIPOC folks process racial, intergenerational, and systematic trauma to REVIVE and LIBERATE themselves to show up whole, vulnerable, unapologetic & with love in all aspects of their life. Get ready to shine your light and be attuned to your inner "Self!"

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.

Understanding the dynamics behind the repeating processes in your life, whether they are symptoms or undesirable patterns, is the first step for meaningful and durable change. I work with both adults and children who have different forms of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or stressful life transitions. I also work with children who present with developmental or behavioral issues.

I understand the impact that culture, traditional values, and generational trauma can have on our day to day functioning and our ability to form healthy/secure relationships. I strive to work collaboratively with my clients to identify behavior patterns keeping them stuck, learn to set healthy boundaries with others, and challenge negative thinking patterns. Using a psychodynamic and attachment-based approach, I offer a judgement free space to sort through the complexities of your relationships and feelings.

What are the stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves? Where do we learn them? Therapy is a great place to start creating new stories that are more aligned with your values and desires. I believe that healing happens in the relationship and approach therapy as a creative, collaborative experience between therapist and client, where humor, kindness, and self-expression are valued and encouraged. My areas of expertise include working with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma and family conflict, though I work with individuals of all ages to help them manage the stressors of life and achieve greater self-awareness

As your empathic, culturally-sensitive guide, I believe in your strengths as you set sail upon your journey of development and exploration. I work to empower, give language, and hold space for my clients to gain a deeper understanding about what you are experiencing. I will create a safe, judgment-free space to support you in learning about the areas in your life where you may feel stuck, drained, anxious, or depressed. We will explore how they are preventing you from having successful relationships or a more fulfilled life.

Therapy gives you an opportunity to transform and move toward a deeper understanding of yourself as life unfolds. Amidst times that may feel dark, overwhelming, or lacking vitality, anxiety and dissociation can manifest in so many ways that feel fragmenting and harmful to the self and body. We can be strongly defended against our unconscious wishes, fantasies, and unmet needs. How and why we behave, think, get stuck or feel fear, love, shame, and joy are layered with so much meaning. Together, we may find ways to build resilience, steps toward action, self-awareness, fulfilling connection, and a sense of wholeness.

I approach therapy from the perspective that healing comes through the caring and dynamic engagement created between two people. Our time together will be a collaboration that encourages mutual presence, relatedness and commitment. Research confirms the importance of this. While no specific technique is consistently effective in eliciting change, certain therapists who bring a particular quality to their work often are. I believe I am such a therapist and my clients consistently report feeling met, nurtured, and empowered by the work we do together.

I believe in one’s capacity to heal. I work with people who have experienced all different types of trauma, as well as those coping with grief, loss, performance anxiety, and issues of self-worth. Using talk therapy and a strengths based, trauma informed practice, I help facilitate healing by providing the time and space to explore each person’s unique story.

People come to therapy for all kinds of reasons. Anxiety or sadness. Grief, divorce or chronic illness. Some are tearful or angry—lonely—can’t get out of bed. Some may just be struggling to organize themselves to get out the door in the morning You may long for an enthusiasm you once had, or a partner or companion who feels like home. —Maybe you’re hoping to find that sense of home within yourself. Is your child shy or anxious? Have school mornings become a battle zone? I bring over 20 years' experience to the pleasure of helping children, adults & parents overcome whatever has them -stuck-

Striving for mental health and wellness in a society with as many issues as ours is hard. Finding a therapist to support you in that, can sometimes feel even harder. What criteria do you base your decision on? Degrees, years in practice, areas of expertise, whether they still meet people in person... But what a profile and your research cannot tell you, happens to be the most important criteria: if the two of you will "fit.” The best and quickest way to know for certain is to schedule the appointment.
