Therapists in New York, NY

Understanding the dynamics behind the repeating processes in your life, whether they are symptoms or undesirable patterns, is the first step for meaningful and durable change. I work with both adults and children who have different forms of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or stressful life transitions. I also work with children who present with developmental or behavioral issues.

With over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist I have worked with both inpatient and outpatient populations in Luxembourg, New York, Berlin and India. After specializing in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) in Belgium through my PhD coursework, I moved to New York where I specialized in Gestalt Therapy and EMDR and built a private practice. In my career I have provided psychotherapy to a variety of populations, mainly clients working through cultural transitions , addictions, anxiety, phobia, depression, personality disorders, relationship issues, life transitions and domestic violence.

Transform Your Life Through Therapy. For over 15 years, I've cultivated a safe, judgment-free sanctuary for clients to self-discover and heal. As an attuned, compassionate therapist, I gently guide you through your journey. My integrative approach draws from evidenced-based methodologies like CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, Trauma and Attachment Based Therapies, mindfulness practices, and somatic psychotherapy. By rewiring your story, you'll experience a profound transformation that extends far beyond the therapy room.

Are you seeking meaningful change, tired of feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns or trying to solve the problems on your own without results. Have you tried pushing through, but recognize the value of professional support to process underlying hurts, develop self-awareness and cultivate new coping strategies. Perhaps you're overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma or relationship issues that leave you unfulfilled. Or you're navigating a major life transition requiring emotional flexibility. Your goal is regaining a sense of empowerment over your circumstances and reclaiming your authentic self and start feeling good again.

Our clients come to us at points where they are caught in waves of emotional turbulence. Feeling these strong emotions of anxiety and/or depression can be confusing. You may feel alone and unable to break these cycles, but our therapy practice can help you through this struggle to discover positive change. We believe it is our responsibility to provide a safe and contained space for any person to explore their feelings and thoughts without judgment. Thinking about who we are, what our motivations are, and how we established our worldview is a powerful and healing experience. We provide support to individuals, couples and families.
