Therapists in New York

Do you find yourself in bed with your partner yet at a loss as to how to bridge the gap between you? For way too many of us, sex causes stress, disconnection, and even physical pain. The silence and misunderstandings that accompany this spiral into heartache, loneliness, and shame. If you are feeling frustrated and don’t know what else to do, trust that working with me may actually get you the results you’ve been unable to achieve on your own. My practice as an AASECT certified sex therapist is to motivate couples and individuals with hope and positive action. The style of my work is non-judgmental, and solution-focused.

Therapy may be a good fit for you if you're feeling overwhelmed, finding a lack of enjoyment in everyday life, or simply interested in better managing your mental health overall. This may include changing behavior patterns, navigating personal relationships, life changes, anxiety disorders, depression, neurodivergence, motherhood, work related problems, etc. I believe strongly in creating a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment in which you can feel safe showing your true, authentic self. If you can be honest with me, you can be honest with yourself, and begin gaining the insight necessary to incite change.

Thank you for reviewing my profile. If you are experiencing overwhelming anxiety, deteriorated sleep, eating, social dysfunction due to school, employment, immigration related problems; or relationship difficulties related to work, original family, interracial relationship, you come to the right place for help. My current clientele include teens/young women who are suffering from poor self image and esteem; undergraduate/graduate students from Ivy League and other private colleges who are frustrated from achieving their academic and social goals; and Chinese-American interracial couples struggling with their intimacy difficulties.

Most of us experience emotional conflict. Anxiety, depression, loss or seemingly impossible situations are among the challenges that interfere with our ability to sustain satisfactory relations at home, the workplace - and most importantly, within ourselves. Feelings of sadness or discontent can lead us unproductively towards substance dependence or persistent grief that overwhelms our lives. Obstacles such as poor self-esteem or past traumas are possible to overcome. Through sensitive inquiry, I encourage exploration of your thought process and resulting behaviors. While respecting your individual concerns, my overall goal is for you to achieve a sense of well-being.

I feel it is important to provide a sense of hope and really HEAR what you have to say. I believe in providing care that is individualized to each persons needs. I use an empathic, supportive approach to treatment to help you feel empowered to explore and work on overcoming your challenges in a safe, judgement free space. I utilize an eclectic approach to work collaboratively with you to help achieve a transformative experience based on your unique process of change and growth.

Accepting new clients in-person/online. I believe that therapy is not a "one size fits all” process. Every person is a complex individual, and every relationship is unique. I offer therapy with a non-judgmental, anti-racist, strength-based, affirming approach, and adapt treatment to my clients’ values and make up, including gender, ethnicity, and sexuality. As an active partner I will always be on your side, but I will also challenge you when necessary. My experience is extensive, diverse, and contemporary, and my past in Creative and Producing for Film and Advertising brings a unique perspective to my practice.

A client who works with me seeks a safe and non-judgmental space to navigate their inner world. They grapple with various challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship complexities, trauma, or LGBTQ+ issues. Their needs are diverse and unique, requiring a tailored approach to therapy that addresses their specific concerns. Their ultimate goal is personal growth and life transformation, and they are dedicated to embracing self-care practices. Empowerment is a key aspect for them, desiring not only to overcome their current struggles but to actively shape and achieve the positive transformations they seek in their lives.

As a mental health counselor, I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is both welcoming and encouraging for all clients. Often times, individuals may feel hesitant about beginning therapy, however, my approach to therapy provides each client with an individualized treatment plan in accordance with their preferred pace, as well as establishing a secure and trusting environment. I am passionate in sharing my knowledge within the field, as well as providing the tools necessary for my clients to achieve their therapeutic goals through a collaborative and personalized relationship.

Life can be hard...stressful things happen. It can be difficult to sort it all out. There are times in our lives where we lose track of who we are and what we need. Therapy can help by providing you with the time, space and support to help you better understand what’s going on and what steps you can take to feel better.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), couples and families usually come to me because they are already aware that something needs to change. Understanding that relationship dynamics create the need for treatment, I work collaboratively with everyone involved to transform those dynamics. When working with clients to solve the problems they face, I use an inclusive approach, keeping in mind that everyone brings their own unique knowledge, perspective, strengths, and resources to their situation. I’m committed to using my understanding and expertise in mental health and relationships to help clients achieve their goals

Welcome, I'm glad you're here! Through our work together, we will create a space that is uniquely yours. Your life experience, thoughts, and emotions will be witnessed and safely held within the relationship we cultivate. I work with people experiencing anxiety/OCD, symptoms of CPTSD/PTSD, self-esteem, and relationship issues. My goal is to guide you in identifying your needs and how to meet them with self-compassion. We will differentiate familial, societal, and cultural conditioning from your own inner guide so that you can live more in alignment.

"Change" is an inevitable part of life! Although it can result in new and exciting opportunities unfortunately, it can often create painful and unmanageable symptoms when we consider the "losses", transition and possible grief associated with it. Loss of relationships, marriage, family, loved ones, jobs, health, confidence, etc., can easily translate into anxiety, depression, confusion and doubt. As an empathetic, versatile and understanding therapist for over 30 years, I have been instrumental in changing individual and couples lives and futures by providing coping tools, strategies, and promoting resiliency with supportive and empowering approaches that the navigation of these challenges require.

The therapy I offer is a collaborative partnership based in curiosity, respect, and empathy. I believe in empowering, honoring, and celebrating your authentic self. With my guidance we will explore the intersecting layers of your identity to understand how to make positive, healthy changes that will allow you to achieve your goals. My clients often begin therapy as they need support managing mood symptoms or disorders (anxiety, depression), attention difficulties, gender/sexuality concerns, family dynamics, life transitions and events, marital and premarital conflict, trauma, peer relationships, and issues at school.
