Therapists Beginning With J in New York
Often times, current circumstances bring us into therapy- perhaps we feel anxious, unfulfilled, disconnected, or trapped. Maybe we notice a pattern we can't seem to break. In my experience, these pain points tend to reflect a much deeper wound that, when tended to, can yield profound relief and empowerment in the here and now. People tend to take risks when they feel safe enough to do so, so my goal is two-fold: to build resources and skills that create a foundation of safety and to inspire clients to take the risks necessary to grow and heal.

My goal as a clinician is to help you feel free. In treatment, I will invite you to bring your whole self into the room, as you are. Together, we will work to identify the ways in which you feel stuck and shift unhealthy patterns that keep you from moving forward. Whether it be for an acute issue or chronic stress, for symptom management or general exploration, I will help you both accept your authentic self and also courageously change that which no longer serves you. Through this process, I believe you will begin to better know who you are, identify what you want, and live a richer, more meaningful life.

Difficult experiences and painful relationships can affect our connection with our bodies, as well as our identities and sense of self-worth. As we begin to heal our relationship with ourselves, we can expand the ways in which we show up in our lives.

The adage "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts" is applicable in this restorative context and beyond. With that philosophy, I weave an integrative sense throughout the therapeutic experience. As an advanced level Somatic Experiencing (SE) practitioner, I draw holistically upon the mind-body connection, recognizing the mind, body, and spirit as integral facets of the human condition, working with clients through anything that is brought to light in the space.

Psychotherapy is about change, learning how to cope with unwanted changes in life, and initiating positive changes for growth. Finding a therapist who can help you to adjust to these changes, and find new meaning in your life can make all the difference. My practice is trauma and social justice informed.
