Transgender Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
My clients typically enter therapy hoping to learn more about themselves, gain tangible coping skills, build meaningful relationships, and process & heal from trauma. They often experience one or more of the following: disordered eating, depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, panic attacks, neurodivergence, PTSD, exploring gender or sexuality (or both!), codependency, or PMDD. Recognizing the systemic roots of many presenting problems, I validate the past experiences of clients who have felt like therapy wasn’t for them and recognize the roles of privilege and politics in mental health. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

As people, we have a deep need to be understood, and one of the most profound ways to do this is in a safe, trusting, and affirming therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, I work with individuals using a psychodynamic approach. My role as such is to help you identify your needs and put your inner experience at the center, engaging both mind and body, so that barriers to your well-being can be lifted. In my practice, I look to be responsive, collaborative, and affirmative when working with folks' intersecting identities and how those identities show up within the therapeutic relationship.

I approach therapy as an active and collaborative process that supports you to connect with your desires. Together, we untangle social and emotional knots. We ask honest questions and embrace new possibilities for being, doing and becoming. Over time, we attend to the roots of struggles to bring about meaningful connections and change.

I offer clients the opportunity to collaboratively examine their current lives, identify what is and is not working, and explore how things can change. We will bring the things just outside of awareness into focus and examine how they are perpetuating the patterns that are keeping you from living the life that you want. By doing so we can begin to change how you relate to yourself and others and eventually create change.
