EMDR Therapists in New York, NY

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to gain a deeper sense of understanding and fulfillment in your life. By exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviors you will begin to develop more self-awareness and self-acceptance. We often find ourselves feeling stuck, unmotivated, anxious or depressed. Therapy provides an opportunity to gain insight, heal from past wounds and work towards your goals in a supportive and collaborative environment. Using a variety of treatment techniques including mindfulness, psychodynamic and evidence based practices, I work collaboratively with you to explore ways to achieve a happier and healthier life.

Many of us struggle with the wish to be close to a lover/partner/spouse while simultaneously feeling fearful of risking vulnerability. Past hurts, traumas in childhood or adolescence, negative family messages about sexuality, body image issues, present-day stresses, betrayals of trust, and experiences of loss, may all contribute to this hesitancy. As an AASECT Certified couples and sex therapist, I will work with you individually and/or in couples' sessions to develop a better understanding of what holds you back from experiencing the deeper physical and emotional intimacy you desire.

CREATIVITY DEVELOPMENT COUNSELING: I am an artist and psychotherapist with special training and extensive experience counseling visual artists, writers, musicians, actors and other creative professionals.
