As an Asian-American gay man who grew up in the US South, I knew from a young age that I lived in a world that did not offer me freedom to author my narrative. Thus, I am passionate about building critical consciousness, self-awareness, and self-confidence to counteract oppression and live in the world with empowerment and authenticity. I am privileged and honored to use my experience to heal any client who has ever felt marginalized, outcasted, or misunderstood simply for "not fitting into boxes." If you are ready to live for yourself rather than for the limiting expectations of society, then I am looking forward to collaborating.

My practice specializes in the identification and treatment of ADHD/ADD, learning disabilities (e.g., Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia), anxiety, and other mental health conditions through psychological assessment. Are you or your child struggling to find success in the face of challenges at school, work, or in relationships? Let's work together to find the "why" behind these challenges so that we can provide you with a plan of how to get the support you need to succeed. I am here to answer questions and provide you with a unique map of you or your child's strengths and weaknesses.

Humans have a natural need to show up and be celebrated for who they truly are. My job is to help you better understand yourself, your choices, and your process. Together, we will identify the internal narratives, subconscious programming, and behaviors that are not in alignment with your authentic self.

Are you feeling hesitant, worried, shut down, or withdrawn? Or perhaps a little low, not quite yourself, & trying to figure out what to do? Are old patterns you've used to manage no longer working? Perhaps I can help. Using a combination of mindful awareness, somatic (body)/nervous system regulation work & Internal Family Systems/parts work, we can explore the different aspects of ourselves & start to move towards the changes we'd like to see. I offer in person services in Brooklyn, NY or worldwide via Zoom video. I offer a free brief phone or video consult to see if we're a good fit: feel free to book yours at www.maximeclarity.com

I invite you to step into a sanctuary of affirmation, warmth, and practical guidance with me, Dr. Deb, a personable and highly experienced licensed psychotherapist and relationship coach. I am here to guide you through life’s ups & downs and get you unstuck and feeling better. I will help you find actionable solutions to the issues you struggle with – work, breaks-ups, mood, anxiety, stress, sadness, unhealthy patterns, pain, depression, relationships, life goals, substances, communication, and so much more. Together we will untangle life’s complexities and find a path to increased happiness and balance. (Really!)

In order to shift anything, one must reach, with a gentle touch, the parts of ourselves that are able to transform. It’s only human to want to heal in order to function at our optimal capacity, whatever that might be for us. I passionately hold that we could all use a way to slow down our rapidly evolving lives—a way to hold space for what drives us forward, or slows us down in ways we’d like to speed up. Therapy is a space to peel back layers to help you move toward being fully expressed, in steady, easy participation with your life—even with its inevitable ups and downs and the in-between spaces.

Dwellness is a diverse team of NY based clinicians who treat individuals and families across the lifespan via in-home and teletherapy practices.

In a society that values toxic positivity, rugged individualism, internal solutions to external problems, and work ethic over work/life balance - it can be really hard to not feel ashamed, guilty, or even dismissed for not being a “productive member of society” or for not feeling heard or validated in your pain that maybe doesn’t have a solution or an outlet to plug into. This often leads to feeling a sense of emptiness, meaninglessness in life, unsatisfying personal relationships, anxious avoidance, and a lost sense of self.

For those of us who do not feel loved and appreciated by this world, it can be difficult to trust ourselves and to honor our worth. Maybe the intergenerational traumas and ongoing struggles of our cultures and communities lead us to disconnect from others or to feel dissociated from ourselves. Maybe we diminish our feelings or hide parts of ourselves as survival strategies. When tangible systemic change seems slow or even impossible, it can also feel like self-love and joy are forever out of our reach.

As a traumatologist I provide expert,holistic treatment services for adults, and high conflict,distressed couples via Zoom. I have over 30 yrs experience with mood disorders ,relational difficulties and recovery from multiple traumas.

Are you stuck? This is most frequently the concern expressed by the adults, couples, and groups with whom I work; though the reasons are varied: burnout, careers, relationships, goal setting, self-confidence, lack of direction, and a lack of overall wellbeing. Together, we will identify a new path forward; increasing happiness and moving toward a brighter tomorrow. Our partnership utilizes the frameworks of positive psychology and cognitive approaches to harness your strengths and assets to create an optimistic and hope-filled foundation for change.

Relationships, whether familial or romantic, are arguably the most challenging and fulfilling part of life. My practice is geared toward helping individuals, couples, and unconventional families recover from complicated relational histories. I draw from a decade of community organizing and training in trauma-informed care to support clients in their efforts to develop greater confidence, communicate more effectively, and resolve longstanding conflicts. I especially love working with misfits, black sheep, rebellious women, and folks striving to break patterns of intergenerational trauma!

As we walk through life, our experiences can often leave us feeling disconnected or even shattered; however, life also offers opportunities to heal in the deepest sense of the word. In our work together, it is my intention to walk alongside you as you find your way to your highest, most centered self. In my work, I have found that everyone collects trauma along the way and that within the context of a therapeutic relationship, meaning can be created and transformation occurs.

Hi, I'm Jenny. Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed or deeply concerned about life situations, change, or a loss. Maybe you don’t even know how you feel but know it is time to reach out for help. Maybe you are missing something in the past or feeling not up to the future. You are not alone in this. These moments are some of the most important in a life, and it is easier to face them with support. That is where therapy can start. “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” -Carl Rogers.

Welcome. You've taken the first step on a brave and growthful journey. Healing is a collaborative process.

As a trained Internal Family Systems therapist, I work with people who are open and ready for profound life changes through new perspectives, more successful, intimate connections in relationships, and an awakening toward how they perceive or define their sense of selves. I have had the honor of working with a great diversity of individuals and couples who commit to understanding and healing historically painful patterns and reactions, while uncovering a more confident, compassionate and peaceful sense of self.
