I've worked in many mental health and medical settings, and have confidence helping with a range of stresses. You don't need to endure unhappiness or loneliness.

Deciding to enter therapy is an act of courage. When people feel overwhelmed, or if they realize they're caught in a rut they can't get out of, therapy can make a difference when nothing else has worked. I help my patients recognize previously-unknown obstacles and long-standing patterns that get in the way of achieving their goals. In their work with me, my patients expand their capacity to see options in various areas of their lives, and so make changes that improve and enhance the quality of their lives. I work with adults of all backgrounds, and bring compassion and respect for a person's suffering to the work I do.

I strive to create a safe and productive space in which you can comfortably share your struggles, be it depression, anxiety, past trauma, relationship issues or discomfort of any kind. I am an active and directive participant in the therapeutic process. No matter where in your life you are struggling, together we will establish goals and achieve results. With compassion, experience, skill, and a bit of humor, I aim to help my clients get out of their own way, strengthen their ability to cope, and achieve greater satisfaction with their life and relationships.

Making that first call to a therapist can feel daunting. But at times we all need some help. Maybe you're struggling with relationship issues. Perhaps you have a life dilemma to resolve. Or perhaps you're just feeing overwhelmed with stresses or emotions. Whatever it may be, I welcome your inquiry. Together we can find ways to support your desire for relief, satisfaction, and even joy in your life. I look forward to hearing from you.

My name is Sherie L. Seff and I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in Trauma, Weight Loss Surgery, Eating Disorders and Sexual Abuse. I am trained in AEDP, Core Self Reclamation Therapy/Fierce Love with a psychodynamic/relational background which I believe paves the way for long term personal growth, success and healing. My office is located in the Columbus Circle area convenient to all major subway lines. I have flexible office hours including Saturdays and Sundays. I offer reasonable session fees based on mental health, and financial need. I can be reached at 646-265-3633.

What makes my work different is how much I focus on the specific issue you want to target. I bypass the need for long term therapy. I use my own model that combines EMDR, Energy Psychology, Somatic work and Parts work. A mind body philosophy that supports and encourages the inherent healing present in all of us. I also work with couples helping them move towards security and safety and using each other as a secure base to return to.

Therapy is an experience that can benefit everyone. It allows us to take the time to look closely at ourselves. It can help us manage difficult life changes and improve our relationships. Everyone experiences stress and worry, and speaking with a psychologist who is nonjudgmental and objective can help us understand how to achieve our professional, personal, and relationship goals.

I believe that seeking therapy is a sign of courage and strength. As a licensed, experienced psychotherapist working with adults and children, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive environment to help clients make the connection between current symptoms and underlying causes. I will work collaboratively with you-to help you work at a comfortable pace that will help you meet your goals. Beginning therapy can be a daunting proposition and I hope you will take this important and ultimately rewarding first step and contact me for an appointment. Saturday appointments available.

At The Sexuality, Attachment, and Trauma Project, we provide identity-affirming care for all communities. Our patients are people, not problems, and we work with each person differently. We treat a range of issues related to sexuality and gender. These include out-of-control sexual behavior, sometimes labeled sex addiction (although we’re not fans of labels). Patients also come to us for intimacy anxiety, sexual compulsivity, gender and orientation confusion, LGBTQ+ issues, and family trauma.

I aspire to create a space that is welcoming, safe and comfortable. My style is non-judgmental, empathic and introspective. My goal is to help you learn about yourself and how you relate to others so that you can make positive improvements that are lasting. Therapy can be challenging; but my belief is that through this meaningful work you will develop a deeper sense of self and awareness of strengths that may have gone undiscovered to this point. In therapy, issues to be resolved will be addressed with the idea that self-awareness leads to choice, responsibility and change.

I am an engaging, curious therapist who utilizes multiple therapeutic approaches while keeping my client's safety and trust at the center of my focus. Clients tell me I'm relatable and warm, with a good sense of humor. I am passionate about creating something truly alive, and life-changing between us. I welcome all parts of the client into our attachment, especially the messy and difficult parts. I am dedicated to ensuring that our therapy works, that we have clear goals and objectives, and that clients feel themselves moving towards the life they want.

I work primarily with individuals and couples struggling with relationship distress and believe that everyone has the power to change when given the opportunity to do so. While relationships can lead to stress and anxiety, they can also be the source of safety and security for us if we let them. Whether you're struggling in your relationship with your partner or yourself, we can work together to identify the parts of yourself that need attention and change negative patterns so you can feel closer to those around you and live a more meaningful life.

My areas of expertise include sexual harassment and workplace violence, sexual assault, intimate partner violence, domestic violence, domestic homicides, and sex and labor trafficking. Issues I have evaluated include trauma and PTSD, violence risk, coercive controlling tactics, dissociation and memory issues, sexual grooming, trauma bonding and traumatic attachments.

If you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning and looking for therapy, you've found the right place. I'm here to help and support you in a safe and welcoming environment. We'll work together to help you find the best way to live the successful and happy life you deserve.

Do you feel stuck in your life? In relationships? In Work? I have 30 years of practice experience working to help others overcome obstacles that prevent them from achieving satisfaction and fulfillment in their lives. Together we can work in a safe, comfortable and accepting environment to explore what is preventing you from feeling that your life goals are within reach. We will work to help you explore the troubling aspects of your life and how they have impacted you. Gaining a better understanding of yourself can enable you to make choices to move forward and find greater satisfaction in life.

My approach to treatment is a supportive, validating and compassionate one, incorporating various styles of practice including insight oriented, relational, Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT) and/or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Each individual has his or her own needs and preferences. This could include either a goal specific, time limited treatment or an insight oriented approach in which they are looking for a space to make meaning of various experiences and understand their impact on the self. A comfortable, trusting, and collaborative therapeutic relationship is an essential foundation necessary to make the changes one of looking for.
