Anger Management Therapists in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, NY

I work with my patients to understand their full self, honest emotions, and how to live in accordance with what they may need to thrive. I work dynamically on various goals and issues, such as developing healthy relationships, breaking unhealthy work patterns, addressing complicated family dynamics, and improving honest and effective communication. With compassionate listening and understanding I help my patients develop ways to manage and treat distressing challenges such as anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. I work to cultivate a space that is warm and empathetic, where my patients can feel safe, respected, and heard.

Many clients are in search of deeper happiness and emotional resilience in their lives and relationships. Often, out of innocence, we look outside ourselves for fulfillment instead of inward, towards our own true hearts. For over 25 years I have worked with couples and individuals seeking a way out of isolation and emotional suffering towards greater joy. This is your time to be on the planet. If you struggle with self-defeating patterns and would like help shifting towards a more vibrant life, please call me for a free consultation.

Seeking help to find peace with what may be causing mental or emotional anguish is not always easy, especially for those unfamiliar with the practice of therapy. With the taboo often attached to mental health, it can seem like a daunting task when managing fears of being labeled, misunderstood, judged or dismissed when discussing your struggles and needs with someone new. It takes true strength to find helpful strategies on your own, while also recognizing the need for more advanced skills and resources to further your healing and growth.

I'm an integrative psychotherapist primarily practicing EMDR with a focus on trauma, PTSD, severe mental illness and distress related to racial identity and sexual orientation. I'm curious about you; there is no judgment about your past, your experiences, or your feelings. My therapeutic foundation is in trauma and attachment theory, where we look at relationships and experiences and how they may affect you today: the social and cultural settings we're in, how the way we identify ourselves and the way others identify us impacts your sense of safety, how we are perceived, and what opportunities we have.

You have a past, a present, and a future, and for many, the distinction between the three is difficult to untangle. Past traumas, strained relationships, social and structural challenges reach into the future where patterns are repeated, and all too often your strength and resiliency are overlooked. Whether you are working through life transitions, dealing with depression, anxiety, physical and emotional trauma, career issues, or relationship struggles, through our work together we will remain open to the possibilities of now and allow you the clarity to write your future.

Hi! My name is E and I am a licensed social worker with experience in treating adults, elderly folks, teenagers, and children. I have worked with a multitude of clients presenting with depression, anxiety, PTSD, relationship issues, family issues, and more. With a background as a speech-language pathologist, I also spent many years working in nursing homes and outpatient rehabilitation centers. I am passionate about helping people reach their goals and fullest potential, engage in relationships that feel fulfilling and healthy to them, have a deeper understanding of themselves, and to create a life that feels meaningful to them.

If you're dealing with difficult emotions, unhealthy behaviors, or stressful life circumstances, seeking help can be daunting. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe environment for you to process and work through areas of your life that are impacting your happiness and well-being. My approach is non-judgmental, solution-focused, and tailored to your specific needs.

I believe that everyone has the ability to cultivate a life worth living. Through supportive psychotherapy and purposeful interaction, my clients learn to use their distress to become more authentic and connected to others. Together we explore their unique blend of culture, identity and experience, and identify the ways in which emotions, thoughts and behaviors foster or hinder their wellbeing. In therapy they gain the necessary coping skills to process feelings and act with intention to meet the demands of everyday life.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I provide teletherapy sessions to address the growing mental health needs since the COVID-19 pandemic. My general approach is humanistic, kind, and collaborative. I offer tools and techniques to help clients overcome challenges, draw on personal strengths and enhance their ability to better navigate their lives. Therapy sessions are tailored to meet individual needs with a focus not just on managing and reducing mental health issues but also on increasing well-being. Sessions will draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), positive psychology, and mindfulness practices.

Feeling stuck? Want to bring some playfulness into your life and feel like something can change? Drama Therapy, an experiential approach to facilitating change, is an incredible tool for self-discovery, transformation, and connection. As a queer gender nonconforming therapist, I especially enjoy working with queer and trans folks, and focus on queering my practice away from white supremacist and ableist systems of pathology. My goal is to create a space that feels safe enough for you to expand self-acceptance, grow in ways that are important to you, and maybe even have a laugh in the process.

My first priority is to listen deeply to my clients and become attuned to your unique story, as sometimes talk therapy can lead to us talking in circles about our lives, without providing the necessary tools or skills for change. I strive to simplify our process, through dispelling unnecessary complexity, in order to aid you in navigating discomfort. My approach taps into creative parts work, so that you can explore and unearth rich parts of yourself, in order to foster genuine expression and to build independence.

Does your external life feel out of alignment with your inner desires? Are your relationships a source of pain for you? Maybe you feel stuck, like you're just replaying the same patterns over and over again. Do you not like the person you are when you're in a relationship or wonder why you keep repeating patterns in the type of person you date? Human beings are wired for connection, yet somehow the people we are closest with also seem to cause us the most pain.

I am a mental health counselor. I am also a creative (crocheter, painter, musician, etc.), a “nature junkie”, a bibliophile, a friend, a sibling, a third-culture individual, & etc. I say all that to say this, people are complex. We have so many layers to our identities that it’s almost impossible for them not to overlap and sometimes conflict. This intersectionality highlights the importance of viewing people in their entirety. It is my goal to create a welcoming environment that foster’s healthy development in my clients’ lives. At present, Lotus life Mental Health Counseling only provides services to female identifying clients.

When you are physically ill you turn to your doctor, hoping they can help you feel better. Problems like depression, anxiety, impulsivity, uncontrollable anger, guilt, or low self-confidence can be as painful, if not more so, than physical illness; they can also create serious relationship and work difficulties. I have over 25 years of experience and I have helped many adults, adolescents, and couples who had received limited or no benefit from previous therapists, other doctors, or medications. I work well with people who are skeptical of, or intimidated by, talk therapy.
