Family Systems Therapists in New York, NY

Let’s say therapy works for you, what do you imagine will be different about your life? I always ask this question in our initial session, because therapy is about helping you get where you’re trying to go. My role is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where curiosity is natural, compassion is the baseline, and exploration is key. To do this, I believe that a positive and strong relationship between therapist and client is essential. I typically work with clients who are navigating gender identity, life transitions, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and/or trauma—especially religious/spiritual trauma.

Hi! I'm Hallie. I’m a licensed psychotherapist, sociocultural anthropologist, and community organizer. I weave together my background in community organizing, my training as a therapist, and lessons learned from my own mental health journey to support you to manage stressors, understand thought and behavioral patterns, set healthy boundaries, and learn to regulate your emotions. I'm an EMDR trained clinician and use Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, feminist therapy, and mindfulness and somatic therapies in my practice. In addition to my professional training, I am a certified yoga instructor.

Perhaps, the secret to navigating life is understanding, and accepting, that life is inherently difficult. Even so, navigating those difficulties is not always so simple. As a socially conscious and strength-based clinician, I believe therapy is best approached collaboratively, looking at personal experience within cultural context. We each hold strength and wisdom to find our way through difficult and even traumatic experiences, especially with the healing power of relationship as support. Therapy can be a wonderful place to work towards deeper self understanding that translates into greater fulfillment within our lives.

Sometimes it feels like the world conspires against our authenticity. We often face pressure to be someone we’re not, or to paper over our complex identities for others’ comfort and ease of understanding. I was born in Austin, Texas to a Caucasian mother and African-American father before I was adopted by my Jewish parents at 2 days old. I faced judgement and pressure to choose binary race and class identities, whether they suited me or not. Navigating these pressures helped me deepen my empathy for others, my curiosity about other people, and a sensitivity to anyone who feels unheard, disregarded, or misunderstood.
