Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
We all need a shoulder at times, a compassionate and empathetic ear. There are things that you just can’t say to loved ones in your life. And sometimes there are things you can’t get a handle on by yourself. You are not alone. I work with adolescents and adults who need a place to speak freely without judgement and be heard.

My goal is to create a curious and nonjudgmental space for you to be understood as deeply as possible. We will collaboratively form a therapeutic relationship that supports you. I believe that the relationship itself can be a meaningful space to empathically understand yourself and the ways you relate to others and to the world. I will lead with curiosity about who you are and compassion for what you've experienced. I work affirmatively with everyone, with the belief that you are not broken but that you make sense based on your experiences and context. Together, we can imagine how you want to feel and exist in the world.

Through my time as a research assistant aiding to conduct studies on the effects of racial discrimination, I became motivated to be a direct support for those in need of mental health resources. As a child of Black immigrants, I believe in the importance of being able to provide clients with a counselor who is culturally sensitive. I make it my primary mission to foster a warm environment with a client first in order to ensure safety and trust. I promote a safe healing environment for individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds using CBT and Psychodynamic Therapy.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use challenges, and life transitions. Many come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or seeking clarity and direction.

I specialize in working with couples and am deeply passionate about helping partners create secure, fulfilling, and emotionally connected relationships. My approach is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)—a research-based model, grounded in attachment theory, that helps couples identify and transform negative patterns, deepen understanding, and strengthen emotional bonds.
In addition to my work with couples, I support individuals navigating relationship challenges, depression, anxiety and panic, time management difficulties, and life-cycle transitions. I also have experience working with parents, and foster families.

Psychotherapy is fundamentally about discovering a deeper sense of personal meaning, greater self-understanding, and self-acceptance. It offers the possibility of coming into contact with a more enlivened state of being. Psychotherapy can help us move through life with a greater degree of freedom and flexibility, feeling more connected to ourselves and others along the way. My work is shaped by psychodynamic, existential, and holistic approaches. My complimentary background as a yoga therapist includes considerable training and expertise in embodiment and mindfulness practices, which I draw upon in my clinical work.

As a licensed psychotherapist for over 35 years, and an experienced psychonaut (one who experiments with psychedelic medicines) the past 50 years, I am well qualified to help you (alone, or with your partner) prepare for and integrate a psychedelic experience. Couples are my specialty. As you probably understand, I cannot and do not encourage you to experiment with illegal substances.

Does any of this sound familiar? You lie awake replaying the day wondering if you said the wrong thing, did enough, or are enough. Maybe your child can’t find the words for what they’re feeling, so it comes out as a meltdown or a shutdown. Or you’re a parent stuck in the cycle of react, regret, repeat. If any of that hit close to home, I want you to know this is exactly the work I do. I work with teens, adults, kids ages 6 and up, and parents who are ready to stop being hijacked by their feelings and finally feel steady including those carrying the weight of past trauma that never fully got addressed.
