Female Therapists in Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY

I am a clinical psychologist experienced in working with individuals and couples around a variety of emotional and life challenges, including grief and loss, trauma, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and substance abuse. I specialize in working with women and couples dealing with challenges around pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum depression/anxiety, and adjustment to parenting. I also see mothers and infants together to address issues in attachment and communication. My orientation is primarily psychodynamic and interpersonal, although I am trained in CBT, DBT, and CPT and do integrate these strategies as needed.

Are you feeling hesitant, worried, shut down, or withdrawn? Or perhaps a little low, not quite yourself, & trying to figure out what to do? Are old patterns you've used to manage no longer working? Perhaps I can help. Using a combination of mindful awareness, somatic (body)/nervous system regulation work & Internal Family Systems/parts work, we can explore the different aspects of ourselves & start to move towards the changes we'd like to see. I offer in person services in Brooklyn, NY or worldwide via Zoom video. I offer a free brief phone or video consult to see if we're a good fit: feel free to book yours at www.maximeclarity.com

I'm so glad you're here. I work with clients that are seeking support with navigating motherhood (fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, birth/early postpartum trauma) and those seeking support in recovery from disordered eating and/ body image issues. Of particular interest to me is supporting women with a history of disordered eating as they navigate fertility, pregnancy, postpartum and motherhood. My approach is solution-focused and catered to client needs.

Many people of all cultures are encouraged to be controlling or perfectionistic in all areas of their lives. Over time, this can be a draining emotional experience. If you are someone struggling to break out of labels that no longer fit and want to live more authentically, let’s work through that struggle together. Through compassionate listening and art-making, I will be a therapist who allows you to develop your unique identity in a safe and affirming virtual or in-person space. I believe that therapy should be an opportunity where you can openly experiment with how you wish to show up in the world.

Are you struggling with issues related to infertility? Have you had pregnancy losses? Are you tired of the waiting and all of the appointments? I work with women in all parts of their fertility journey (from the beginning of learning about challenges and options, those going through treatments, those recovering from loss and more). Fertility struggles can cause a range of negative emotions and issues such as anxiety, anger, grief, guilt, blame, uncertainty and many more. Your mind has such a great impact on your body and your fertility. I love providing support and emotional tools for women going through their fertility journey.

I am a New York State licensed psychotherapist who believes in healing through holistic means. I use client-centered and relational approaches to offer support, suggest solutions, and build sustaining change with my clients.

I specialize in working with young women who want to improve their feelings about themselves. Many of the women I work with have the appearance of being successful and having it all together. But on the inside they feel like something is broken or missing. If you find that you're always putting other's needs before your own, being critical of yourself or feeling unfulfilled with your relationships, I'm here to help.

Dedication, education and experience are the qualities that will contribute to an active exploration of your unconscious and conscious mind in a safe and secure analytical framework. This therapeutic process is thrilling as one hears, listens and gains conscious knowledge of the wisdom of the unconscious. Psychoanalytical psychotherapy requires commitment, time, and an over riding desire for wellness. It does not promise a false, temporary relief, a quick fix, and/or health gained by following a therapist's directives under the false premise that others have the answers. The unconscious owns the answers and wellness.

Are you struggling with infertility? Perhaps you and your partner are contemplating or beginning fertility intervention as a means of having a child. During this time, you are likely navigating a range of distressing emotions, facing critical treatment decisions and feeling isolated in the process. I provide emotional support, guidance and counseling to women and couples in different stages of their family building process. In our work together, I support you to tap into your intrinsic resources: emotional, cognitive, physical and spiritual, so as to overcome infertility, heal from pregnancy loss and stabilize postpartum challenges.

I specialize in helping people in their late teens, 20s & 30s release the original programming from home, school or their community that convinced them they needed to hide their true selves, masking traits that were perceived to be different or not enough. In session, we'll celebrate your unique perspective, work to individuate from early caregivers and trauma bonds, while building the trust and authenticity you need to support your high-achieving personality. Connect with like-minded others who validate your lived experience and recognize the beauty of nuance. Improve communication, confidence, emotional intelligence + compassion.

Have you always dreamt about becoming a mother? Is it what you imagined it to be? You were told that all mothers are happy and perfect. In truth, motherhood is an emotional, complicated and compelling journey from conception, pregnancy, delivery, and into postpartum. No one tells you how hard it can be to actually get pregnant. Others seem to get it so easily, yet you struggle. When you are pregnant, instead of feeling endless joy, you feel sad, scared, angry or anxious. After the baby comes, instead of feeling confident as a new mother, you wonder all the time, what if you aren’t the perfect mother?
