Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Chelsea, New York, NY

What is holding you back? I work with young adults who don't know the answer to that question, who are struggling with life transitions, finding a purpose, and may be having a life "crisis." Often my clients are dealing with depression and anxiety related to difficulty making decisions, are stuck in an unsatisfying job, or are feeling confused and uncertain about the next step in their life. My goal is to help you understand what you want and what's holding you back.

Contact me if you are struggling with relationship difficulties, sex, sexuality concerns, trauma, losses of loved ones, ADHD, depression or anxiety. I will help you better understand and accept yourself, and use your own insights and strengths to change and grow. I am also passionate about working with individuals, families and groups with cross-cultural/immigration background. Coming to United States as an international student myself, I deeply understand the challenges in the international community, the painful process of loss and separation from home countries, and difficulties to fit in due to language and cultural barriers.

In the current society we live in, buzzwords from the psychology field are being used widely. This has allowed for a drastic change in how therapy is perceived. From that, something else surfaced: the concept of modern loneliness, an issue that seems to be all around us like an invisible, yet quantifiable, statistic. We constantly hear about self-care, self-worth, self-love and boundaries as remedies for all challenges we face. The need for connection with the self is essential to a healthy life but to what extent have we decided the focus on the self will lead us to relatedness and responsibility for others?

Feeling depressed, stuck, dealing with trauma or life transitions? Struggling with parental, familial or relationship issues? Maybe something has happened recently causing you to become overwhelmed or left you feeling drained and empty. Perhaps you can't explain the cause of your feelings. I can help you make choices today that help you move forward in a way that honors your values and priorities to become a better version of yourself. Together we will build on your existing strengths to help you improve your ability to identify, communicate and manage your thoughts, needs, feelings and experiences.

Are you experiencing difficulty with navigating life transitions such as exiting a relationship, graduating from college, or changing careers? Are you struggling to address frustrating patterns that seem to keep turning up? Do these experiences leave you feeling ashamed, unsure of yourself, or lost? I am prepared to support you with shifting away from fear of failure, patterns of negative self-talk, and limiting beliefs toward developing the insight and skills needed to manage difficult emotions, overcome obstacles, strengthen relationships, and connect to your power and potential.

Underearning? "Undersucceeding?" Underadulting? Overwhelmed? If you're not where you thought you'd be by now; if anxiety, self-doubt or your past hold you back from the life, relationships or career you want; If you feel stuck, disconnected, stressed or defeated, let’s talk. We’ll explore experiences that have shaped your sense of self, affected how you relate to others, impacted what you expect and allow in your life, and influenced how you cope. We'll create an intentional, supportive space to help you craft a more empowering and authentic story, end self-sabotaging patterns, and close the gap between where you are and want to be.

In our sessions together, you can expect my therapeutic style to be warm, empathetic and person-centered. Therapy should not be one-size-fits-all and I recognize that every client brings a different story to session. You are the expert of your own experience and I will take the time to understand how we can collaborate together to work on your own personal therapeutic goals. We will work to help you develop new tools, process your experiences, emphasize your strengths and celebrate the little victories along the way.

I've been a practicing psychotherapist in the New York City metropolitan area for over 25 years. Most of my clients are adults with relationship problems, work issues, anxiety or depression. Some have histories of trauma. My approach to therapy is generally a psychodynamic one with a focus on the here and now. I also use mindfulness, hypnosis, ego state therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as tools in treatment. I have found that this eclectic approach is helpful to clients as one size does not fit all.

Hi! I'm a clinician specialized in working with men, and addressing men's issues.

If you are living with or beyond illness and loss or caring for someone who is, either as a family member/friend or professional, seeking out therapy is one way to take care of yourself as you navigate the challenges that come with these experiences. I believe that even in the most difficult times of life, people have an amazing capacity to grow, learn, connect, love, and find meaning and purpose. This can be balanced with the more uncomfortable feelings that come along with illness, survivorship, loss, and caregiving. I offer a non-judgemental and empathic therapeutic space where we will work together to find this balance.

There are times when we feel blocked and feel unsatisfied with ourselves or with our relationships. I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual therapy to young adults and adults.

Together then, we work to bridge the past and present, and we develop intentional choices and behaviors that allow you to be the best version of yourself.

Whether you're starting college, changing careers, or becoming a parent, transition is hard. And major life transitions often kick up difficult emotions and memories that maybe we thought we'd already worked through. I work with clients navigating major life transitions and all that comes with them. This can include bodily changes, shifting relationships, grieving how things used to be, questioning identity, and navigating all of this without losing yourself in the process. Changes is hard, and these questions are difficult; they're also ones we can explore and work through together.

Contacting a therapist can feel awkward and scary. Be assured that your life will improve as a result of therapy. We can work at a pace you feel comfortable with. We all want freedom from our emotional pain. Worries or anxiety, anger or depression, insomnia, relationship conflict or traumatic memories may lead to escape & dependence upon food, substances, experiences and relationships for relief. Escape never leads to peace. Thankfully, we all can learn to find a dependable source of peace in our minds and hearts, no matter the external circumstances. I can help you get there. I have been a therapist for over 25 years.

I want to help you gain a greater sense of control over difficult thoughts and feelings. Clients often begin therapy requesting concrete tools to walk away with from each session. This is something I offer through through my enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach, with a dual focus on techniques for altering unhealthy thoughts and behavior, and for improving insight, awareness, and mindfulness. I have a long track record of creating powerful results for my clients.

My ideal client seeks self-exploration & understanding, facing issues like anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties.

By establishing a nurturing rapport, I strive to create a safe, warm space for you to heal and grow.

Life is increasingly complex, and so it is important to find a space you can feel grounded. My style is direct, compassionate, and collaborative. I approach things pragmatically to support you in reaching your goals and learning to leave behind the things you may have outgrown. I believe that psychologists are most effective when we examine our own context, biases, and experiences. The sign of a truly effective therapy relationship is one where you feel comfortable voicing your perspective, even if history has made you cautious. I empower my clients to find and use their voice in therapy and out in the world.
