Spirituality Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
I specialize in marginalized identities, LGBTQ populations, spirituality, and redefining masculinity.
As an Asian-American gay man who grew up in the US South, I knew from a young age that I lived in a world that did not offer me freedom to author my narrative. Thus, I am passionate about building critical consciousness, self-awareness, and self-confidence to counteract oppression and live in the world with empowerment and authenticity. I am privileged and honored to use my experience to heal any client who has ever felt marginalized, outcasted, or misunderstood simply for "not fitting into boxes." If you are ready to live for yourself rather than for the limiting expectations of society, then I am looking forward to collaborating.

I specialize in multicultural counseling, shaped by my doctoral training and research, and bring expertise in existential concerns and life's deepest questions, supported by a strong record of publications on spirituality, identity, and meaning in psychotherapy.
I am a licensed psychologist in New York and New Jersey, offering virtual therapy across the U.S., with a practice grounded in diversity, inclusivity, and expertise in existential and spiritual concerns.
Healing isn’t about just coping. It's about rediscovering yourself. During life’s pain, we long for more than survival. We crave connection and a safe space to make sense of it all. I believe healing happens through authentic, collaborative relationships—the kind where you’re seen, understood, and invited to explore both joy and pain. It would be a privilege to discover a way forward that makes room for both hope and love.

Many of us develop patterns of behavior and explanatory narratives in response to life's demands. Over time, this form of adaptation can lead to a false sense of self. Sooner or later, though often around midlife, our typical ways of coping and sublimation no longer work, and we are called to reconnect with our true selves. Therapy can support this process of uncovering and freeing ourselves from maladaptive patterns.

In a time when there are so many potential threats, how do we learn to feel safe enough? How do we not only cope but have meaningful experiences in this chaotic world? My values as a therapist are not to deny the trying times we are in, but to create a space for authenticity, play, rest, and connection. Our goal together is to explore the interiors of the mind and body in order to be aware of the ways we can close off from ourselves and others, in order to create a more free and authentic future. I take an integrative approach, blending my background in psychodynamic and somatic modalities.

Peace is one of those terms that can have different meanings for different people. People often think peace is the absence of war and struggle. I have learned over time that two things can be true. Peace and harmony can exist with pain, sadness and even worry. Through my own self journey I have witnessed and experienced different ways of healing " Healing is not Linear." My goal is to walk with you on your journey because I believe you are the author of your life. I will meet you where you are but most importantly empower you with the tools to trust yourself. I work with teens, adults, and couples.

"I use principles from my life experiences and training to impart wisdom, insight and understanding; and to bring clarity to a variety of complex situations. When my clients leave I want them to be enriched, encouraged and enlightened by their counseling experience."

My approach to therapy is holistic and deeply personalized, recognizing that true healing involves the mind, body, and spirit. As a Christian Counselor, faith is a foundational element, providing hope, meaning, and a moral compass in the therapeutic journey. Clinically, I integrate evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, alongside psychodynamic techniques to explore how past experiences and relationships shape present struggles. Furthermore, I often utilize Family Systems principles to understand relationship dynamics and facilitate healthier connections.

Do you have a pressing practical conflict, moral dilemma, or torn decision, not sure which way to go? Are you at a cross-roads, re-evaluating yourself, your life, career, relationship, your religion, or your spiritual path? Are you struggling with meaninglessness, loss of purpose, loss of faith, existential indigestion, philosophical confusion? Do you struggle with the bigger questions: Is life meaningful? Who am I? Why am I here? What should I believe? What is reality? Is this it? Is there anything else? How can I know? How should I live? What is my path? What is my highest good? Do I have a calling? Can I change? What should I do?

Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions—or the emotions of others? Maybe you struggle to set boundaries, feel responsible for how others feel, or can’t remember the last time you felt like yourself. You might notice anxiety, shutdown, or reactivity that doesn’t make sense, no matter how much insight you have. This is often the impact of trauma living in the nervous system. Therapy can help you understand these patterns and begin to feel more grounded, clear, and like yourself again.

I also use empowerment and spirituality (if needed) to help you (re)connect with your authentic self and rediscover your capacity for self-actualization.
I approach psychotherapy from a transformative stance that empowers the client to explore one's inner self in a nonjudgmental and safe environment. It's a collaborative process involving us working together to navigate life challenges and foster personal growth uniquely tailored to your needs. We are a culturally-centered, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive practice that utilizes clinical approaches so that we as a community can reclaim and experience transformative healing.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
