Therapists in 10010

Hello and welcome! With over 20 years of experience, I specialize in treating anxiety/phobias, low self-esteem, depression, relationship problems, weight/body concerns, and trauma. I'm also very effective in helping others manage stress, particularly around career/work issues, health concerns, grief, procrastination, perfectionism, artistic blocks and major life changes. My style is interactive, very supportive and focused on you reaching your goals. I'll provide a confidential, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to express your feelings and explore issues in depth. My priority is that you feel "heard" and fully accepted.

I invite you to step into a sanctuary of affirmation, warmth, and practical guidance with me, Dr. Deb, a personable and highly experienced licensed psychotherapist and relationship coach. I am here to guide you through life’s ups & downs and get you unstuck and feeling better. I will help you find actionable solutions to the issues you struggle with – work, breaks-ups, mood, anxiety, stress, sadness, unhealthy patterns, pain, depression, relationships, life goals, substances, communication, and so much more. Together we will untangle life’s complexities and find a path to increased happiness and balance. (Really!)

I provide a warm and safe environment where the most troubling issues can be discussed with ease and comfort & difficult relationships can be examined without anger and hurt. I believe the goal of therapy is to help you grow and realize your full potential, build new skill-sets, reconnect to your inner strength and find inner calm and tranquility. Together help you find peace, joy and happiness in daily life. We will work together with compassion and collaboration to support your well-being. My approach is influenced by eastern and western philosophies, non-dualism, Buddhism, Zen and spirituality.

I work with warmth and compassion in a supportive and collaborative fashion creating a safe environment to help my clients in dealing with issues affecting their well-being. I will help you in bringing about the changes that you are striving for; increasing happiness in daily life and joy in relationships, making decisions regarding education or career, and/or building new skills. I strive to tap into the body's inner wisdom to guide us through life to find solutions, inner calm and tranquility and strengthen inner capacity to be truly fulfilled.

Beginning therapy can be scary and is a bold step toward making proactive changes in your life. I provide a warm and relaxed atmosphere to explore your emotional life in a safe and supportive space. Aware of the importance of the body, I experience you as a whole person: your words, life themes, affect, posture, and your presence. By experiencing you in your wholeness, I can contextualize what can feel confusing or fragmentary. I can share what I see and understand, helping you raise your self-awareness. This process can harmonize your thoughts and emotions. Insight alone often is not sufficient for healing.

Our social world can be an overwhelming, stressful place that leaves parts of ourselves unseen and unheard. I believe in creating a holding space, a place of openness and compassion, where you can dare to be yourself. In psychotherapy, we come together to better understand how elements of your internal and external worlds are interacting (or not interacting). Sometimes what has long been unseen and unheard can transform into awareness. Together, we can look at whatever emerges to find new ways of understanding your experiences. With care and support, small steps forward, however subtle, can yield transformation.

I am a Humanistic Client-Centered Clinical Psychologist, originally trained within the Psychoanalytic orientation. I also believe in theoretical eclecticism, therefore in addition to my Humanistic orientation, I offer Cognitive/Behavioral as well as Psychodynamic approaches. Overall I strive to offer my clients the experience of "therapeutic presence" including: deep empathic listening, nonjudgmental acceptance, and therapeutic and genuineness. I look forward to meeting you for an initial consultation.

“Taking refuge” is a phrase in Buddhism that invites a world-weary self to find relief. From the confusion of life’s dramas and the pull to get swept up in them. Taking refuge requires building trustworthiness through a softening that happens over time in relationship. That is one reason psychotherapy is effective: The trustworthiness built by therapist and client allows for a depth of self to be known and expressed. Such encounters in turn build trustworthiness within oneself, for as our capacities enlarge, we enlarge. In finding solace within, we learn to live less fearfully, participate in relationship with authority and ease.

Ready to be seen and heard for all that you are? To be lovingly called out? To make peace with your shadow parts? To become your own best friend? To fall in love with life? It’d be an honor to help you experience deep soul level healing through our authentic connection. A dynamic where you’re able to breathe easy, knowing there’s always someone who gets you, in all your complexity, and holds the highest vision for you even when you seem to forget it.
