Therapists in College Point, NY

I passionately enjoy working with diverse people “from all walks of life”— professionals, essential workers, parents, students, immigrants, artists, LGBTQA+ community members, caregivers, and allies to people experiencing medical or mental health issues. In therapy, we can appreciate your emotions, problem solve and cope with daily issues, change “undesirable” behaviors, cultivate physical and mental wellness, pursue life/work goals and satisfaction, and practice effective communication skills for interpersonal relationships.

For children and families, I help them navigate the challenges of a medical situation by getting children to understand specific medical procedures and diagnosis, encourage them to be an active participant in their treatment. I also support them to express feelings over their illness, or the illness of their sibling, parents and other family members. For adult clients, I provide 'Pause and Reflect Coaching' service that through dialogue and creative means, (i.e. dance/ movement, role play etc), I facilitate opportunities for you to listen to your heart and make new decisions towards finding meaning in your next chapter in life.

I am so glad you are taking this step to invest in a crucial part of your well being.

I’ve worked with an international clientele with a wide range of personalities from the anxious OCPD overachiever to the ADHD self-depracating comedian with positive outcomes.

Jem’s therapeutic focus is on improving the quality of relationships in one’s life. Relationships involve your experience with yourself and others and may include food, sexuality, your body, work, money, and drugs and alcohol. By getting curious about real-time thoughts and feelings, Jem then helps you recognize patterns and larger stories that you carry about yourself and relationships. This allows for more conscious choices, with the purpose of building new or upon existing skills to express a client’s true potential and more fulfilling life.

It can help you better manage a challenging environment or life transition. You are not alone. Help is here.

Hi, I am a clinical psychologist licensed in New York State. People come to me for all kinds of emotional and relational challenges. I found myself work particularly well with those who have relational trauma in their family of origin, those who struggle to find themselves or trust themselves, those who experience perpetual unhappiness or loneliness despite their achievement, as well as those who genuinely seek to understand themselves deeply. I have a passion serving immigrants, expatriates, international students, the LGBTQ+ community and the marginalized, and I have worked closely with these populations over the years.

Hello everyone, please welcome and allow me to first begin in thanking you. The choice to start therapy isn’t always easy, sometimes it is the most difficult thing to do is to even consider it, then admit you want/need it before even taking the steps to start, but you are not alone on this journey. Perhaps there has been times that you have found yourself feeling stressed, down, lacking confidence, or stuck in a pattern that no longer serves you. Perhaps you’re ready to take steps toward changes but feel stuck or unsure where to start. Or even feeling lost in your relationships in life or even disconnected from them.

Whether you're seeking comfort, clarity or empowerment, I'm here to compassionately witness your journey while offering guidance and support. I'm skilled at assisting clients in untangling emotional knots, rewriting internal narratives, cultivating post-traumatic growth, increasing confidence and sense of well-being in work, play and relationships. I have experience in serving these populations: highly sensitive people (HSPs); Asians and Asian-Americans, immigrants, anyone who is seeking to understand and increase their emotional intelligence.

If we think alike, we would agree that a good life is a life in which we are able to work, to love, and to play. However, in reality, many situations become barriers and prevent us from enjoying life. At times, we might even feel we can't breathe. As a devoted therapist, I will work together with you to remove these barriers -- whatever the cause might be: career stress, rocky relationships, identity confusion, past trauma... You need not face your problems alone. Over years, I have witnessed changes happening, wounds healed, trust rebuilt, and fear given way to courage.

You work hard in relationships and at the workplace to meet your own high standards. But feelings of inadequacy and dissatisfaction often creep up despite your accomplishments. Every time you achieve a goal, a fleeting sense of happiness is soon replaced by the familiar feelings of emptiness and anxiety. You long to approach challenging situations with increased flexibility and ease, to make decisions that you believe in and feel good about. Creating a sustained sense of meaning in life without reverting to the same, old cycle of despair seems far away, but actually, it's closer than you know. This is where therapy comes in.
