Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

As far back as I can remember I've always had an innate desire to help others and see their needs while being both patient and positive. This led me to a career in therapy and early on in this career I was fascinated with seeing the power of exposing people's inner strengths, allowing them a safe place to vent and work on coping skills. After a few years I continued to have a lingering feeling like I could be doing more for my clients. This led me to combine these existing techniques with a new theory called Emergence.

This can feel ... exhausting. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment in which you feel comfortable putting that performance aside. I believe that we begin to heal through relationships. My hope, for our therapeutic relationship, is that you feel safe to be honest, authentic, and vulnerable about whatever your life looks like right now, while together, we reflect on what may have led you here.

My practice focuses on individuals and couples, ranging in age from 18 to elderly. I strive to create a safe environment in which to explore life stressors, patterns of relating with others, and how past experiences impact the present. Areas of professional practice include anxiety/depression, chronic illness including HIV, grief/loss, relationships, sexual issues, separation/divorce, LGBTQ, family planning, career transition, and finances. I have extensive experience with addictions, and work collaboratively with clients, whether the goal is safer substance use, reducing use, or abstinence.

If you're feeling stuck, anxious and/or struggling with addiction, a life change, a relationship (monogamous/open/poly) or chronic illness, you're not alone! You have the power to adjust, adapt and move forward in a healthy way; I will be happy to try and help along the way!

Are you looking for an open-minded, non-judgmental therapist to help you address problems, build confidence, and get to know yourself? Are you struggling with life, relationships, creative pursuits, or coming to terms with your past? Seeking therapy requires courage, and it is with respect, curiosity and dedication that I approach this work.

I am a licensed therapist providing online counseling to individual, and families in both North Carolina and New York. For the last nine years I have supplied professional therapy for people with mental health, medical and substance diagnoses.

My name is David, and I am a licensed clinical social worker and certified case manager with 14 years of experience in the medical and mental health field. I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University, specializing in healthcare, and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University at Albany, where I graduated with high honors from the School of Social Welfare. Throughout my career, I have devoted myself to helping clients overcome life's struggles in the healthcare and mental health industry. I am licensed in NY, FL and NJ.

My experience includes 25 years of working in the field of social service and over 10 years working as a therapist. I have worked with people of many different backgrounds, identities, ages, and experiences and I highly value time with those who identify as LGBTQIA2S+. I provide therapy through a lens of antiracism, intersectionality, and feminism.

I believe psychotherapy is a tool, whereby clients can recognize both the conscious and unconscious factors that contribute to their pain. While people often have similar problems, there is no one size fits all solution. I work with clients to not only identify their problems, but to effect a solution, whereby the client can understand the behavioral patterns that contribute to their pain. Together, we can formulate a plan to achieve the change needed to have the peaceful, fulfilled life you see for yourself. Whether we need to discover more about the past or focus on the present, I will develop a proper treatment plan .

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.

Are you are wondering if counseling is really for you? We may understand - because some of us dealt with depression and at some point didn't believe in therapy.

That’s because we know when you’re able to get past this hurdle, you will be able to focus on all the things you’ve always dreamt about.

Starting therapy is brave. I aim to foster a relationship that is compassionate, free of judgment, and a place where you can express your truest thoughts and feelings. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and the therapeutic space should be one that centers and honors your resiliency and strengths. Treatment is fluid and individualized uniquely for you. As such, I consider our work to be a co-created process and I endeavor to create a space where all expressions of selfhood and identity can be safely expressed.

No one can tell what's really going on. You are doing everything to try and keep it ALL under control: your job, relationships with family and friends, and your relationship with your partner. But inside, your thoughts are racing, its hard for you to take a deep breath and concentrate, you can't sleep well and your constantly overwhelmed. You are not sure how much more you can take.

The decision to enter into therapy can be overwhelming but finding a connection to the right therapist can change your life. I believe that the foundation of the therapeutic process is built on rapport. I understand that being vulnerable and sharing areas of your life can be difficult, and I am here to make that easier for you by collaborating with you to reach your desired goals. My style has been described as the antithesis of a note scratching, cliché, therapist.

Are you struggling with avoidance, anger, overworking, excessive substance use, or impulsivity? Do you have a hard time saying no, or setting healthy boundaries for yourself?

Through therapy, we can get in touch with other parts of you and help you find more balance in your life.
