American Sign Language (ASL) Therapists in New York, NY

Since graduating from New York University with an MSW degree, I have been working as a psychotherapist. My clinical approach combines cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and a strengths-based process to trigger goal-oriented actions. I am DBT informed and trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I have extensive experience with individual, family, couples, and group therapies. I am fluent in American Sign Language and have worked closely with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities. I see a mix of Deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing clientele of all ages.

I work with individuals who are seeking comfort and evidence based models to deal with their anxieties, life stressors, trauma, depression, family and relationship issues, and ADHD. I use empathetic listening, trauma informed and a strength based approach to help individuals meet the goals that they want to meet. These goals could be how to live each day and to learn how to prioritize themselves and their mental health. Being fluent in American Sign Language and being a CODA, I am familiar with the struggles that Deaf individuals face and the uniqueness of being raised in Deaf culture.

Hello! I am a Trilingual Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have 20 years experience as an integrative psychotherapist, with training in working with Deaf/Hard of Hearing/Late-Deafened adults, children, families, couples and members of the cochlear implant community. I am also fluent in Spanish, and American Sign Language. I am currently based in Arizona, athough my practice is conducted entirely online and currenlty serving states: DC, NY, MA, AZ and TX. I also offer clinical supervision. For potentional supervisees, I provide a 60-minute clinical supervision session for those seeking opportunities for clinical growth.

Some people come to me for help in dealing with difficult situations that they find themselves in: they’re stuck in moving along with their careers (in acquiring work that’s more fulfilling or remunerative); stymied in finding love; overwhelmed by having to cope with a loss or significant change; stressed out over mending or escaping a broken relationship; struggling with parenting their children in a complex world. Other people come to me for help in overcoming deep-seated afflictions that prevent them from leading normal lives: depression, anxiety, addiction, or phobias.

The clients I work with range from 7 years old to 85. Typically the clients who seek my help are experiencing anxiety, depression, panic, relationship problems, phase of life difficulties, or memory problems. The goals clients have are typically to achieve a more balance life and mitigate their mental health difficulties.

Finding a therapist can be hard, especially when you are navigating through your life journey. It can become even more isolating when you are in between the Deaf and hearing worlds. As the only Deaf member in a family moving to the United States, I went on a long journey through self-discovery. Through firsthand experience, I faced challenges with communication and isolation while discovering my own identity as a Deaf person. This is how I learned to become a strong advocate for minorities.

My clients are working through issues ranging from grief & loss, attachment and other trauma, identity development, social/emotional stress, interpersonal or familial conflict, anxiety, family planning, marital counseling, systemic oppression and even just the impact of day-to-day stressors.

I provide telehealth services in New York (Headway.co) and in-person services in Maine (PenBayMusicTherapy.com). I've shared profound clinical experiences in many traditionally non-musical care contexts, including psychiatric, special education, rehabilitation, and complex medical settings. My clients navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, regulation, trauma, grief or loss. I guide clients to explore and express experiences and feelings that are subconsciously defining the self. I aim to provide a warm, reliable, and open-minded presence that encourages clients to express what they have held onto tightly.

Change can be difficult - but with support it becomes possible. You might be struggling with difficult thoughts like "what if my family never accepts my life choices - will they ever accept me?" Perhaps you're battling indecisiveness and fear about whether you're "good enough" to succeed, preventing you from reaching your aspirations and goals? Or maybe you feel confident and successful at times, but at other moments as if your shield for taking on the world is paper-thin? I utilize methods including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help resolve these concerns.

Do you feel unsatisfied, stuck, or anxious in your relationships? You watch as other people go on to have successful relationships while you feel stuck in repeat. Are you on the verge of divorce? You might be driven in other areas of your life but feel like you can't quite hack it when it comes to relationships. You might have tried a plethora of therapists in the past that don’t connect with you or seem not to understand where you are coming from. You are looking for someone to tell you like it is, understands where you are coming from, and invest in your future success.
