Weight Loss Therapists in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NY

I am passionate about helping people to overcome life challenges. My special focus is on weight loss . I understand the difficulty and the frustration of the process and I will help you set realistic goals and reach them. My other specialization lies in the area of loss, grief and mourning. Losing someone you love is an especially traumatic event. I will help you find inner strength and commitment to self-growth to continue finding joy in life despite the pain of your loss.

Down bad? Feeling wonky? Lets talk about it. I help clients with a variety of issues by tailoring my therapeutic approach to their unique needs and goals. I want everyone I work with to realize their full potential by restructuring maladaptive thought patterns that lead to distress and poor functioning. I hope to give my clients the space to process their thoughts and emotions, and understand the ways in which their behavior and subconscious beliefs about themselves and the world around them play into false narratives that ultimately keep themselves down. I strive to help my clients to learn to love themselves without condition.

Life may feel joyous and beautiful, but it may also feel uncertain, boring, sad, lonely, painful, and even devastating at times. Life's inevitable changes can leave us feeling overwhelmed, lost, and engaging in unhealthy behaviors in order to cope. Finding the right support is key to help you navigate these difficult times.

All human beings want to be seen, understood, & accepted. Therapy can be a safe & intimate space for such an experience. As a therapist, I believe we all need someone to empower, validate, & actively listen to us in an empathic way, which is what I thrive to do. I help in navigating life transitions and processing emotions, thoughts, and experiences that cause distress. I specialize in anxiety, self-doubt, decision-making, low self-esteem, processing shame and trauma, coping with Latinx family trauma, 1st gen. stress, the BIPOC experience, and childhood trauma.

People usually come to therapy seeking relief from problems that have become intrusive, limiting or painful. Through talking in session, you will start to become aware of thoughts and feelings you didn't know you had, of desires hovering below consciousness. My job is to help you connect to your inner experience, and to provide an atmosphere of tolerance and curiosity where we explore it together. The process itself generates insight and emotional awareness. From there we work to transform what you're learning about yourself into positive change and self-assertion.

Hello. I am Kristina Shalashenko, psychologist and certified gestalt therapist and leader of psychotherapy groups. My specializations: 1. Dependent behavior. 2. Clinical approach to psychotherapy. 3. Age crises. 4. Sexology. I have been practicing since 2015.

Making the decision to start therapy is one the best gifts you can give yourself. That might sound a bit cliché, but giving yourself permission to focus on your own needs and discover more about yourself can be an incredible process. This is especially true if perhaps you’ve gotten used to putting the needs of others first, by being a caregiver to a parent or family member who may be struggling with a physical or mental illness or substance misuse. Learning to put the focus back on yourself and figuring out what gives you happiness and fulfillment is one the many ways that a good therapeutic relationship can enrich your life.

If you are looking for relief from daily stressors, support during a life transition, are working through a traumatic experience, or even in need of intensive therapy for more difficult emotional and mental health issues, I will work with you in an individualized process to create change and growth in your life. I help individuals of all ages using therapeutic techniques that are tailored to meet each person's specific and unique needs. I also work with parents, children, and families seeking to restore equilibrium and health within the family system.

Greetings! I am a NYS Licensed Psychologist, providing psychotherapy, consultation, workshops, and supervision. I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Fordham University, and have over 10 years of professional experience. Psychotherapy is my passion, and my approach is a blending of solution-focused Cognitive Therapy and Mindfulness. I have completed formal training in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and often weave meditation practice into the therapy process. Other areas of interest include: yoga, taichi, qigong, gaming, work/life balance, LGBTQ issues, and mind-body health (sleep, nutrition, exercise).

My approach to therapy is psychoanalytically informed, borrowing tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based approaches. I take time to get to know the person in their present day-to-day life, as well looking carefully at past history, patterns of thought and behavior, and relationship dynamics. My goal is for my clients to develop a deepened relationship to themselves. This work involves us partnering to find language and create structures that facilitate change.

No matter what path we take in life, we will be met with suffering and hardship along the way. This is a natural aspect of the human condition. My goal as a Therapist is to assist you with identifying how your suffering manifests (whether it be due to depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, life change etc.) and the variety of ways in which you can cope with the distressing situations in your life.

Dwellness is a diverse team of NY based clinicians who treat individuals and families across the lifespan via in-home and teletherapy practices.

I don't have an ideal client because I am open to working with various individuals with various issues. I want to work with individuals who are open to seeking help and guidance with whatever obstacles they're facing. My only desire is that the client is open to the process and patient with both themselves and me.

I work with individuals and couples that find themselves struggling to navigate internal and external conflicts. Therapy focuses on increasing one's awareness of the core beliefs about themselves and others that create negative feedback loops, making it difficult for positive change to occur. I believe that therapy allows the client to get in touch with their authentic self by questioning whether their beliefs around themselves and the world around this is truly what they feel or a way of defending themselves from pain.

You’re looking for a therapist who will get you and help you feel unburdened by emotional pain. You're ready to heal and better understand who you are - to feel more comfortable, confident, and content. In our work together, you’ll gain awareness of your emotions, where they come from, and what to do with them. We’ll work to alleviate your pain by exploring your patterns of relating to yourself and to others.

Are you feeling confused, stuck or overwhelmed by life experiences? At times, it can be difficult to see the full picture when you’re inside the frame. I strive to create a safe space for each client, one where compassion and curiosity can lead to change and finding your most authentic self. In a safe, empathic space, we will explore your relationships, patterns of thinking and feeling, and the meanings behind them. I have experience working in mental health clinics as well as palliative care and oncology. I hope to help you cope with life's various stressors and understand yourself in ways you’ve never considered.
