Much of my work focuses on men’s relational and emotional well-being, especially those who present as high-functioning while quietly struggling. My clients often initially measure their identity or worth through success, responsibility, or likability within community. Beneath that, hidden shame, fear of rejection, or long-standing patterns of people-pleasing have left them feeling anxious, disconnected, or unknown. I also support gay, bisexual, and queer men navigating the tension between authenticity and attachment, exploring how early experiences of conditional belonging shaped the ways they relate to themselves and others

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that focuses on healing by understanding and compassionately relating to ourselves, rather than just suppressing symptoms.
With over 20 years of experience, I offer both traditional talk psychotherapy and art psychotherapy to help you find your emotional voice whether it be about a current situation that is causing you distress or something from your past or future. We often hold on to thoughts, behaviors and feelings that seem too overwhelming to share with others. We fear being vulnerable. We run from difficult feelings and thoughts. We feel ashamed of our emotional "baggage". Worst part is, we often try to hide these under a mask because of shame, fear, and anxiety. But hiding in shame only makes us feel isolated, empty and experience self hatred.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or carrying the weight of trauma, grief, chronic illness, or a major life transition - you don’t have to do it alone. You may be longing to feel safer in your body, less reactive, and more trusting of your inner knowing. Deep down, you want to come home to yourself - to move away from “false belonging” and into a life that feels more aligned, grounded, and true. I specialize in working with complex trauma (including CPTSD), grief, chronic illness and pain, and identity shifts - including supporting mothers navigating role changes and the emotional load that can come with caregiving.

Something brought you here today. Maybe you've been putting this off for a while. Maybe things have gotten harder lately, or you're just tired of feeling stuck.
I'm Evelina, a psychotherapist in Park Slope, Brooklyn. I've been in practice for 13 years, and I trained at Pratt Institute, where I still teach.
I work with adults, teens, and children — and I genuinely love this work.
With adults, therapy is a real conversation, the kind that actually moves somewhere. I often work with people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how they got to this point.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected — from your identity, your body, your community — you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been doing all the “right” things, showing up, pushing through, trying to hold it all together, and still something feels ... off. Like you're stuck in loops that don’t feel like you. Exhausting patterns. Old survival strategies. It can be hard to tell where to even begin. I work with women in communities who are often taught to take up less space, specifically LGBTQIA+ identifying and artists/creatives/performers, who are ready to slow down, tune into their bodies, and live more confident and pleasure-filled lives.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with specialized training in supporting foster and adoptive families.
My ideal client is someone who is deeply committed to growth, even if they aren’t yet sure what that path looks like. They may be an adoptive parent navigating the emotional rollercoaster of raising a child with a trauma history, or a teen trying to make sense of who they are in a world that often feels overwhelming. They might be an older adult struggling with loneliness, grief, or identity in the later stages of life. Regardless of age or background, what unites my ideal clients is a desire for healing, clarity, and a life that feels more manageable and aligned with who they are.
