Therapists in New York, NY

Congratulations on taking the first step towards your personal goals! Whether you're new to therapy or experienced, I welcome you wherever you are in your journey. I've worked across diverse settings, spanning ages 3 to 105, and I meet you without judgment. In therapy with me, you can expect: a warm and inviting space for your emotions; a space to share your history, culture, and current context and have to be heard and understood; identifying your strengths and areas for change; exploring past experiences, including trauma, and their impact; creating new life approaches based on insights; and positive energy, smiles, and laughter!

Welcome! Do you want to work towards a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, emotions, and actions? Are you learning more about your queer identity?

She uses a creative, collaborative, non-judgmental approach to work towards those goals. Sarah encourages clients to bring their full self into the therapy room, including laughter, tears, frustrations, and whatever else may come up.

As a clinician, the therapeutic process is only meaningful and complete with the reciprocity and engagement of those I work with. Each individual is unique and their stories are interwoven with a rich tapestry of diverse emotions.

“Find your place, speak the truth.” These were the words spoken by my childhood idol, Kurt Cobain. So many of us struggle to find our place in this world and to live in our truth. We want to be seen, but we fear rejection. We want to use our voice, but we are afraid of judgment. If you are feeling this way, I can help. I bring a creative, punk rock, radical sense of self-acceptance to treatment. I believe in giving a voice to those who have been marginalized and do my best to advocate for the populations I am passionate about. I enjoy working with musicians and creatives, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and Bipoc LGBTQ+.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities were confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

I'm a trans, queer, Mexican-American therapist who works from an attuned, responsive, and relationship oriented approach. As all of us have a tendency to get lost in a narrative or storyline, I invite clients to slow down with me and get intimate with their direct experience—the raging emotions in the body, the coming and going of thoughts, the feeling of shaky vulnerability, the rage, the loneliness—honoring it all and creating a safe holding space for these lost emotions, perhaps for the first time ever.
