Women's Issues Therapists in Park Slope, Brooklyn, NY

I believe that a good relationship with my clients is a necessary precondition to good therapy. I balance compassion and acceptance with a firm, challenging stance. After all, we don't grow from sitting in our comfort zones! My areas of expertise include treating eating, weight, and body image issues, mood and anxiety disorders, and helping people through difficult life transitions. While women's issues are a specialty, I have worked with clients with a range of gender identifications and I aim to provide gender affirming care. My clients are diverse by age, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, race, and ethnicity.

The decision to see a therapist is one of the most important ones you can make, because it means you have decided to change the course of your emotional life. All humans are wired to feel emotions deeply, and sometimes we can be overwhelmed by their power. I understand how difficult it can be to live with depression or anxiety, and I want you to know that you are not alone in your struggles. These are common and treatable conditions that can significantly impact your daily life and well-being. It takes a lot of courage to seek therapy, and I am here to support you and help you find relief from your symptoms.

As a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) and a Registered Drama Therapist (RDT), I believe that creativity is essential to the journey towards self-discovery and transformation. Through the lens of story, role, and metaphor I like to explore patterns that may no longer be serving you, while highlighting the parts of self that are adaptive. I specialize in the effects of trauma, depression, anxiety, people who have infertility challenges, relationship issues, and adolescents/young adults who's self-esteem has been impacted by learning challenges and other life obstacles. I work from an anti- oppressive and trauma informed lens.

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.

You may be here because you’re here because something doesn’t feel quite right, there is something you want to work through, or you’re searching for something that you can’t quite put your finger on. I believe therapy is a unique space you can make for yourself in your life. It can be a place where you explore, contemplate, and play out life’s many possibilities with someone you trust.

I am a AASECT Certified Sex Therapist (CST). I will work with you wherever you are at in your life and customize my clinical techniques to meet your needs.
