Therapists in Riverdale, NY

Few things are harder than struggling alone. You might be holding onto pain from your family, friends, or past relationships. Or it could feel like you're stuck inside a traumatic event that chains your life. It might feel like no one understands how deeply sad, intensely angry, or desperately helpless you feel. But you're not alone. Healing from trauma is not just a concept; it is an attainable reality. It would be an honor to be invited on your journey towards healing, reparation and building a life worth living. I believe the goal of therapy is not just to stop the suffering, but to create a sustained life of thriving and joy.

Many of life's challenges stem from difficulties in navigating our relational, social, and cultural worlds. You may be struggling with distress related to relationships, emotion regulation, racial trauma, cultural identity, or self-worth. These problems can present as depression, anxiety, PTSD, somatic symptoms, or couple distress. You may have already tried many different ways of solving your problems before seeking professional help. Sometimes, the symptoms you present with are a result of trying to adapt to impossible situations.

I am a psychotherapist with over 18 years of clinical experience. I see individuals from diverse backgrounds, including, but not limited to, Asian Americans who deal with various internal and external conflicts. Facing difficult life transitions may result in depression, anxiety, and feeling stuck. I provide a secure space where individuals can search for self-understanding, gain a capacity to bear loneliness and uncertainty of life, and deepen a sense of relatedness. Through dyadic processes, I help them work through early attachment patterns and intergenerational traumas that may reoccur and complicate current life situations.

Hola Hola. My name is Jean Carlos Osorio and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of professional experience and I am also the Founder/Clinical Director of Minds Together, LCSW.P.C.

I am a queer and trans nonbinary therapist mainly providing support for trans and nonbinary clients coping with transphobia as well as navigating gender identity and a/sexuality exploration and development. Race, class, and gender are at the forefront in my work with survivors of complex trauma. I help queer and trans immigrant communities with mental health challenges related to their lived experiences of abuse and neglect, long-term grief, and intergenerational trauma. My clinical modalities are psychodynamic and experiential.

I believe every dysfunction, every disorder, and every pain was somehow born to cope with life and protect the best parts of us. In the journey towards healing, we all need a power greater than ourselves (call it God, love, or family...) to provide acceptance, support, and a safe place to unravel. Counseling is an invitation to come and be; to take an honest look at yourself for who and what you really are; to realize your issues make sense; and to have compassion for all parts of you so you can holistically heal and function at your full potential.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in New York and New Jersey who provides individual psychotherapy to older adolescents and adults in English and Korean. I specialize in treating relational difficulties, depression, anxiety, trauma (emotional, physical, and sexual abuse and neglect), as well as stress and trauma related to immigration, racial and ethnic identity, as well as other identity issues. My approach to therapy is integrative, utilizing elements from various modalities, such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

Are you feeling a little lost and frustrated trying to find “the right therapist" for you? Have you ever wished to completely be yourself in front of someone without worrying about being judged? Do you want to feel seen, heard, and understood by someone? I am here to help. I am ready to listen to your deep stories that you couldn't share with anyone and to better understand you with compassion, curiosity, and an open mind. As an immigrant with diverse educational, religious, and family backgrounds growing up in multiple countries, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate various cultures, institutions, and systems.

Feeling spread thin? Are your boundaries not set and respected? Intrusive, overwhelming thoughts won’t leave you alone? Stuck in a mental space vacuum where it’s hard to get yourself grounded and in control? Insecure in the way you present yourself in certain spaces? Find yourself reacting and regretting rather than mindfully responding? My curiosity drives my sessions to hear and understand your unique story in which you are the narrator, main character, and expert. I work with various clients, including children, teens, college students, those in midst of transitions, adults, and immigrants. Sessions in Korean are also available!

You are looking to better understand how your intersecting identities (racial, gender, sexuality, etc) & oppressive systems (racism, patriarchy, capitalism, etc) impact your daily lived experiences. You want to, in a safe space, heal and address traumas that stayed with you. You are interested in learning what narratives are limiting your growth, and in replacing them with liberating, nurturing beliefs about yourself. I work closely with members from the BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and other oppressed communities. I have extensive experience supporting folks working through cultural, generational, and other differences/gaps with loved ones.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression and struggling to understand their roots, or finding it challenging to navigate your relationships and communicate your needs effectively, you've taken an important step by seeking support here. I'm dedicated to helping you find relief, feel truly seen, ground yourself, and embark on a journey toward understanding your innermost self and intentions. In my therapeutic approach, I offer genuine warmth and openness, grounded in a sincere quest for truth.

Do you struggle navigating life? Do you wish you could increase your understanding and skills to make life less challenging? The good news is therapy can help you gain control over your life and pursue your dreams. Life is beautiful, but there are many tools that we as humans need to reach our full potential. Low confidence, readiness to change, trouble communicating, and lack of social support are just some barriers that can prevent you from getting “unstuck.” As a member of the Queer community, I empathize with these experiences and I have done intensive work personally and professionally that has changed my life for the better.

At The Sexuality, Attachment, and Trauma Project, we provide identity-affirming care for all communities. Our patients are people, not problems, and we work with each person differently. We treat a range of issues related to sexuality and gender. These include out-of-control sexual behavior, sometimes labeled sex addiction (although we’re not fans of labels). Patients also come to us for intimacy anxiety, sexual compulsivity, gender and orientation confusion, LGBTQ+ issues, and family trauma.
