Therapists in New York

Ik ben een erkend therapeut (LCSW) met veel jaren klinisch ervaring. Mijn patienten merken vaak op dat ik heel makkelijk om mee te spreken ben, en dat ik zonder oordel naar hun luister. Het meerendeel van mijn werk is met kinderen, tieners en volwassenen.

Do you feel frustrated and stuck? Wondering if you are on the right track? Do you want change but don't know what kind of change or how to get there? Are you going through a life transition? Do you question wether your life can have more meaning? Or maybe you find yourself repeating the same pattern over and over and don’t know how to change it? I am here to help and support you. I will work with you to find your own inner resources, heal and integrate past experiences, feel more comfortable in your own skin and at home in the world, and experience more joy, peace and meaning in your life and relationships.

Even therapists have therapists, I often assure my clients. We are all imperfect humans doing the best we can, with what we have, at any given time. Yet we may find ourselves stuck in a rut or feeling sad, anxious, guilty, ashamed or burnt out. Maybe we want to feel better, want things to change, but just don't know how to make that happen or we feel immobilized or defeated. Well, you are far from alone in these universally human experiences. Life is challenging. With compassion, lived understanding and therapeutic knowledge, I'd love to help guide you towards changed perspective, active fulfillment & overall well-being.

Life can throw you sudden and unexpected challenges. Stéphanie understands the difficulties surrounding change and the anxiety that occurs over an unknown future. The process of grief can be associated with any kind of loss: a job, relationship, the loss of a pet, or most painfully, a loved one. Stéphanie knows that the closing of one door may lead to the opening of another. You may not ever forget the loss, but she can help you to move forward. Stéphanie also has a passion for helping those experiencing depression, anxiety, and daily life challenges through her empathetic, open and non-judgmental kindness.

Are you, by choice or circumstances, facing changes in your career, work-life balance, relationship, health, identity, or mortality? During the course of my career, I have had the privilege of working with individuals throughout the lifespan, offering assistance in navigating the inevitable changes that come during periods of transition. As a seasoned licensed clinical psychologist, I offer compassion, experience and expertise, fueled by a deep desire to support and facilitate my clients throughout their journeys.

We strive to address your issues, meet your needs and work with you to meet your goals. We have over 15 years of experience treating ADHD/ADD, Grief, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Psychosis, Dementia, and other related conditions.. Visits are conducted in person or by video. We have interpreters for most languages and ASL available. We want you to feel that you are being heard, that your concerns are being addressed, and that you are treated appropriately.

As a therapist I deeply value the journey of gaining self-knowledge. Through a collaborative effort we can improve your self-awareness by identifying blind spots, relational patterns, and automatic thoughts. Unhelpful behaviors can cause you to feel stuck and may interfere with your ability to experience joy. My therapeutic approach is warm, open, and supportive. During sessions I pay careful attention to your personal history, current circumstances and goals so we can begin to map a meaningful way forward that is uniquely tailored to your needs.

I like to begin by creating a safe space for you to be vulnerable as you embark on this journey to address things in your life, relationships and from your past that have you feeling “stuck”. My specialty is working with the individual (s) to explore behavioral patterns that lead to problem areas to increase insight, motivation and a sense of agency to take on change. I do not see individuals as problem but rather as people with problems. Problems are temporary. Let’s begin this journey.....to discovering to best version of yourself.

For me it starts with you, not a diagnosis. Wherever you are in your life, it is easy to feel stuck and overwhelmed. I will listen. Together we will go on a process of a deep rooted self discovery that can lead to a life lived more free, creative, successful, and unapologetic within yourself and in your relationships with others.

I am currently accepting new patients in my parenting group. Please call or email for more information.

My work focuses on social and cultural forces that affect development. Life’s challenges, navigating career dynamics, school, and interpersonal and family relationships impact our feelings of self-worth. Together, we will embark on a journey to uncover and understand self-limiting behaviors that result in sub-optimal interactions.

If you're reading this, it means you have already taken the first step toward wellness: you've begun the search for the right therapist for you. In our first sessions, we’ll work to establish goals for treatment so that our later sessions can serve to deepen self-exploration into how we can meet those goals. I am not a smile and nod therapist, but a therapist who will truly be your partner in accessing a higher quality of lived experience.

My clients are postcolonial, queer, subaltern, disabled, invisibilised survivors of everyday microagressions or complex trauma. Like my clients I am polycultural, multilingual, queer and attuned to queries on acculturation, multiple social identities, identity shifting, parenting minority or neuroatypical children, intercultural couples, as well as accidental, disabling or climacteric transitions. My clients want to come to terms with their complexities — those invalidated because of primary or secondary socialisation. Exploring symbolic language allows for production of new knowledge of self and self-(re)actualisation. Paris based.

Transform Your Life Through Therapy. For over 15 years, I've cultivated a safe, judgment-free sanctuary for clients to self-discover and heal. As an attuned, compassionate therapist, I gently guide you through your journey. My integrative approach draws from evidenced-based methodologies like CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, Trauma and Attachment Based Therapies, mindfulness practices, and somatic psychotherapy. By rewiring your story, you'll experience a profound transformation that extends far beyond the therapy room.

I am an extensively published, world-travelled expert on trauma and chronic illness. I conduct therapy in English, Spanish, French, Russian, Portuguese, German, and Dutch. For the past 25 years, I have been assisting individuals with ADHD/behavioral challenges, trauma, PTSD, dissociation, depression, bipolar disorder, and physical illness. My clients range in age from 3 to 103. Early in my career, I developed a support group curriculum for AIDS orphans now available in 35 countries. Review of my work as a therapist are available online. Kindly employ email to contact me initially if possible. Thank you.

I strive to cultivate a therapeutic space where clients feel safe to fully express their thoughts and feelings in an empathetic and nonjudgmental environment. I am devoted to a collaborative process of assisting individuals with identifying and achieving their goals. I believe that the therapeutic process is beneficial in helping clients gain a deeper understanding of their own emotions, attain self-efficacy on how to cope in times of adversity, and ultimately become self-aware to foster significant changes in their lives that are parallel to their genuine beliefs.
