Attachment-based Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

While I join most therapists in providing a safe, non-judgmental space to simply talk, I also collaborate with clients to develop more active sessions. This includes goal setting, homework, exposure therapy, guided imagery, psychoeducation, mindfulness, and other evidence based practices. I specialize working with anxiety/panic attacks, depression, anger, men’s issues, identity formation, and religious/existential crises. I also help with relationship conflict, including communication issues, infidelity, assertiveness, and anger/forgiveness.

Are you struggling with difficult family dynamics or a lack of support from your environment? Are you finding that the tools that you have turned to cope, like substance use and avoidance, has taken hold of your life? Are you feeling exhausted or constrained by treatment that sees your experience as a disease and dispenses formulaic solutions? You are not your symptoms and you deserve care from someone who wants to join you, sees you as the multi-layered complex person you are and supports your vision of healing in mind.

I am offering support for client's who may have a history of anxiety, young professional stress, immigrant/women's issues, and depression. Also, client's who value exploration of identity and self esteem, and how this may be impacted by race and ethnicity is a plus. I aim to support other BIPOC/POC individuals in navigating their mental health. Interest in or a willingness to try arts and holistic/alternative interventions a plus.

I specialize in women’s mental health and wellness across the lifespan and work with clients on areas such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, work/career identity and balance, stress management, reproductive and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMAD), parenting issues, bereavement, academic challenges and existential issues.

I'm an integrative psychotherapist primarily practicing EMDR with a focus on trauma/PTSD, severe mental illness and other emotional distress, including experiences related to racial identity and sexual orientation. I'm curious about you; there is no judgment about your past, your perceptions, or your feelings. My foundation is in trauma work & 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.

Hello! My name is Carolyn, I use she/her pronouns, and I am a counselor at Live Well Practice. I earned my BFA and MA from New York University. I am particularly interested in helping creatives, young adults, and people in relationships thrive. My background is in positive psychology, having served as Head Teaching Assistant for The Science of Happiness at NYU while also working in the performing arts. I have a special passion for making the skills and tenets of positive psychology accessible for all ages.

Mental health symptoms can exert a painfully strong hold on our lives and take an exhaustive toll. Symptoms can range from anxiety or depression, to a sense of being stuck, to reactions stemming from current circumstances or one’s life history. My practice is guided by the principal that you and I working collaboratively, engaged in a project of speaking and listening—being curious about one’s inner world—can have a significant impact on one’s symptoms. While this practice focuses on reducing suffering it also seeks to produce change.

I'm drawn to Robert Frost's saying "the best way out is always through." It captures a sense of deep suffering and illustrates the type of healing that the process of therapy can bring. I’m a psychotherapist who supports individuals and couples in their process of healing from a variety of emotional, psychological, behavioral, self-esteem, identity, and relationship challenges.

Greenpoint Psychotherapy is a holistically minded practice that functions on the premise that by allowing ourselves to accept and experience our emotions, we will increase assertive behavior leading to increased alignment between external & inner selves. We help clients with exploring how their past relationships and experiences continue to impact their present life, through identifying and changing thought patterns that have become unnecessarily negative or rigid, and learning to use difficult experiences to gain more insight about themselves so they are able to move forward with kindness instead of fear.

Hi! I’m Em. I am a life coach specializing in self love, sobriety and emotional recovery. I believe that self-love is the foundation for a life filled with contentment and joy. Tuning into the body’s knowing provides us with the strength to handle life on life’s terms and accept the peace that we desire and deserve. I work with individuals to help them break patterns that wear the spirit down, reconnect compassionately with their authentic selves, and create a life more aligned with their true needs and desires.

I support people struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, body image, and self-advocacy with warmth and compassion. Imagine for a moment that you are able to let go of your anxiety, release the urge to make things perfect or altogether be perfect. What space could you create for yourself to explore and grow? What space could you create to make something that feels true and authentic? People often come to me when they are ready to make this step.

Therapy can be about making changes, confronting difficult topics or processing barriers that exist in everyday life. As your therapist, I provide a warm, safe and accepting space to create our therapeutic relationship. Together we will look for patterns and behaviors that have held back progress or success, and explore ways to improve daily functioning. We will explore your goals, feelings and relationships in ways that feel genuine and honest to you.

I am a culturally competent, trauma-informed psychotherapist who believes in a collaborative therapeutic relationship. I work with individuals, couples, and polyamorous, nonmonogamous, multi-partner relationships using a holistic approach to psychological and emotional wellness.

I have always been the person people come to talk to and my practice is a natural extension of myself. I strive to develop a trusting and comfortable clinical relationship with all my clients to help them process their history, various challenges, pains, uncertainties, and family dynamics. Thirty years of practice have taught me how incredibly resilient the most struggling individual can be given the genuine support of others and even without it. Building from my clients’ resilience and our clinical relationship, treatment evolves and mental health is found, strengthened, or regained.

Sometimes patterns of communication can get in the way of building deeper connections and leave us feeling misunderstood or overwhelmed in our relationships. These patterns can make it difficult to see eye-to-eye when experiencing grief, life transitions, increased stress, or uncertainty about what’s next. By exploring the factors that contribute to both healthy and unhealthy dynamics, therapy becomes a collaborative environment where each partner can practice giving and receiving empathy. Whether dealing with depression, anxiety, or life transitions, couples therapy can be a place to deepen connection and find collective healing.
