Addiction Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

Outside of my private practice, my experience has been in hospitals, schools and addiction/recovery related outpatient settings.
The experience of finding a qualified therapist who feels like a good match can be exhausting. There are far too many options and the idea of telling a stranger anything about yourself is daunting. If you are reading this, you may be feeling stuck (or on the edge of becoming unhinged) and you are worried. My job is fourfold: to listen to your issues, recognize maladaptive patterns or behaviors, help to connect your emotions to your actions, and teach coping skills that nurture an overall sense of competency and contentment.

My goal is to help you rebuild your emotional wellbeing and move forward toward a healthier, more purposeful life. In our early work, we will center on how you take care of yourself; tracking immediate and tangible progress while also exploring and addressing the deeper roots of issues. Only when self-esteem and confidence are actively being built can one seek properly to help with the wants and needs of others.

I am sensitive to problems such depression, anxiety, life transition, relationship issues, and addiction.
Congratulations! You've taken the first step in a journey to the life you deserve. The thought of finding a therapist you trust, feel safe and comfortable with can be overwhelming but so is the alternative: living with fear, frustration, uncertainty, and confusion.
I'm always amazed at the courage my clients show as they move from a painful existence to one of hope and joy as they gain the tools necessary to create the life they want. Change is Possible!

I am experienced with a broad range of emotional and addiction issues and use a wide array of skills based treatments.
Are you or someone you love struggling with addictions? You have tried everything you can but nothing has worked and you don’t know what else to do or where to turn. You have said "this is the last time" so many times its getting harder to believe you can actually change. Your relationships and performance at work are falling apart but you feel powerless to stop yourself. If this is true for you or someone you love, then it is crucial to know that there is hope and change is possible for you and the people you love.

I have experience and a strong passion for supporting queer and gender expansive people and their unique experiences, as well as people struggling with or in recovery for addiction.
I aim to create a safe and affirming environment for clients to feel supported in exploring past and present experiences. I deeply values the vulnerability of my clients, and seek to build a therapeutic relationship that is founded in collaboration, trust, and empathy. I believe in each client’s innate strengths, and I am interested in identifying and working through barriers to better understand the narratives we often have about ourselves. I work collaboratively to help clients rework these stories to fully honor who they want to be. My training and life experiences shape my practice.

My clients vary; they may be struggling with addiction, trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, or life transitions.
Life is not easy and in this increasingly disconnected society, we often feel alone even when living among the people that we love. As an experienced therapist, I offer a connection built on honesty, authenticity, and empathy. By developing and fostering this connection, we can face your pain together while also uncovering and challenging blocks that hinder your own ability to heal yourself. I use a variety of modalities to help each person meet his or her goals, though EMDR, IFS and Interpersonal Process Therapy are my most common approaches to treatment.

I specialized in treating a variety of mental health disorders such as depression,trauma, anxiety, substance abuse and eating disorders.
Do you sometimes feel that life is harder than it should be? Almost as if everyone else received a manual on happiness and you didn't? Well, You're not the only one. Often we reach a point in our lives where we question ourselves and what we do. There are other times when we feel things like anger, sadness, loneliness, anxiety, and don't really understand why or where these feelings are coming from. It is not easy to talk about these feelings with other people, even those that are close to us. But, what would it be like for you to find someone that will not only listen to you, but also help you manage those feelings?

I worked with people with Parkinson's and those who have been incarcerated or struggling with addiction.
I believe therapy should be long term and built on the strong relationship between therapist and client. My approach is solution focused with forward orientation. I try to encourage clients to share at their pace & they will be met exactly where they are at. Anything shared is viewed as a gift & a privilege to hear. I practice eclectic psychotherapy using a wide range of tools, training, and skills with my life experience to support clients in being able to achieve the desired change, acceptance, or processing they may be seeking. I want you to feel safe enough to finally tell someone: what happened to you. You are no longer alone.

Welcome to my practice! I am a Licensed Psychologist specializing in recovery from addiction, trauma, anxiety, and depression.

I believe suffering is a normal response to abnormal situations and work with you to bring this to light so you can change coping responses that no longer work for you. I incorporate cultural humility, seeking to honor all aspects of identity that contribute to your life. I provide sessions in English or Spanish.
