Therapists in New York, NY

I'm a trans, queer, Mexican-American therapist who works from an attuned, responsive, and relationship oriented approach. As all of us have a tendency to get lost in a narrative or storyline, I invite clients to slow down with me and get intimate with their direct experience—the raging emotions in the body, the coming and going of thoughts, the feeling of shaky vulnerability, the rage, the loneliness—honoring it all and creating a safe holding space for these lost emotions, perhaps for the first time ever. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer end-of-life support, and coaching.

I specialize in working with folks with stigmatized behaviors and identities, or who are otherwise mistreated and ignored in traditional mental health settings. My therapeutic approach is, above all else, strengths-based and person-centered. You are the expert in your own experience and what you need. If you're learning to safely unmask your neurodivergent self, exploring your gender identity or sexuality, examining your substance use, or navigating non-traditional relationship structures like ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, BDSM, or queerplatonic dynamics, I'd love to work with you!

Hi! I'm Sam, a Professional Coach who works with neurodivergent adults (ADHD, Autistic, AuDHD, OCD) who have unconventional lives to understand and embrace their unique neurotypes, so they can effectively minimize stress, overcome challenges, and improve their quality of life. Together, we can co-create a supportive, non-judgmental, and effective coaching partnership through which you will learn to fully utilize your strengths, understand and embrace your full humanity, and cultivate practices that are key to defining and achieving your own version of success. Please note: I am a qualified coach, NOT a psychotherapist or counselor.

Accepting new patients. You have already taken an important step in identifying that there is room in your life for healing, growth, support, and exploration. I work with individuals who are experiencing difficulties with depression, anxiety, substance use, interpersonal issues, questions of identity, or feeling stuck in patterns of behavior. My curious, collaborative, and compassionate approach allows you to explore your inner world and challenges in a safe, affirming environment. I view therapy as a space where you can bring your entire self, including your pain, joy, and possibilities for transformation.

Healing starts when we know what to heal from, believe that we can heal, and connect with our inner and external resources to heal. As a relational therapist, I support individuals, couples and families in navigating life transitions and cross-cultural issues, managing mental health symptoms, processing shame, guilt, and loss, improving communication and intimacy, and addressing the impact of systemic oppression on our sense of self and our relationships. I'm committed to supporting BIPOC and LGBTQ+ community. Together we discover and embrace your authentic self, release your inner strengths for personal and relational growth.

Life’s journey features many complex and dynamic processes. How we come to learn about ourselves and understand life around us is key in how we experience it. It is my belief that self-care with the purpose of healing and self discovery can radically improve our experience navigating everyday life and have powerful impacts in the world around us. Informed by principles of social justice and anti-oppression, I offer a space to work with you as an individual in context of communities that you are a part of and are important to you. My practice integrates psychodynamic, cognitive and mindfulness techniques.

At QuIPP, we are queer, non-binary, depth-oriented, feminist, and trauma-informed. Our therapeutic approaches include CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic and we seek to explore the deep impacts of others (familial, peer, and social) on the minds and spirits of our clients. Our clinical areas of expertise include: gender & sexuality, trauma, transition related support, and poly/kinky & sex positivity. Given that trauma and emotional pain often originate within relationships, we take a relational (and deeply compassionate) approach to therapy.

I approach all my clients with empathy, understanding, and encouragement. I view therapy as a collaborative effort, our relationship and trust will help facilitate the change you envision within your life. We will work together on exploring behavioral patterns, emotions, and thoughts.

Are you unconventional in ways that makes finding a therapeutic fit hard? Need tailored sessions? Hi, I'm Locke! Whether you want to use sessions as executive function coaching, silent brainspotting, or cathartic chats, I'll aim to make it possible. Rationality-valuing, polyamorous, & LGBTQ+ neurodivergents with complex trauma report the most relief working with me, but my trauma treatment through individual and couple's counseling can benefit all. Survivors, especially those who don't wish to talk about their trauma, are as accommodated as those who do. Welcome, creatives, philosophers, and insomniacs needing flexibility!

Hi! I’m so glad you’re here and taking this important step toward improved wellbeing. I strive to meet every person at where they currently are in their healing journey. I have experience working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, identity concerns, relationship issues, and neurodiversity, among others. As a queer, Latinx therapist, I recognize the importance of addressing the nuances of intersectional identities and the impact of oppressive systems. While I specialize in working with those part of the LGBTQ+ community, I welcome individuals of any identity and background.
