Male Therapists in Garment District, New York, NY

I am a warm, interactive, and compassionate psychologist who works with young to older adults for individual, couples, and group psychotherapy. I work from a psychodynamic and relational perspective, which means we take a look at the impact of your past and present relationships with family and friends, in terms of how they have impacted you, along with your sense of self and the identities you hold. I know this work makes patients feel vulnerable, so I balance the therapeutic work with a sense of sincerity to deepen the therapeutic space while also using humor and irreverence to add levity to our time together.

You are you, and nobody understands this as deeply as you. I approach our work from a humanistic, person-centered foundation that helps guide your innate strengths to discover, or re-discover, your authentic self. For some, therapy might look like a winding journey. For others, a direct path. Or it may be a mixture of both. I’m a relational therapist and believe that the fostering of a trusting alliance between us is essential to the realization of your unique goals of change and growth. I don’t believe that a “blank slate” therapist is a helpful one. I am human just like you.

I am eager to work with adults with varied personal and cultural identities presenting with a wide range of mental health symptoms and problems of living. As an evidence-based practitioner focused on the individual, I will use my clinical expertise to integrate the best available practices in the context of your uniqueness. If you are struggling with emotional symptoms related to social relationships and career, I can help you not only to identify the causes of your distress, but also to inform your search for novel solutions that are right for you in the context of your unique personality and life situation.

We have all developed strategies to manage the threat of disconnection in our most important relationships. Often these strategies are to shut down and walk away or continue pursuing our partner. When these strategies meet, they create a pattern the keeps their relationship feeling stuck in repetitive arguments. We can work together to help you understand more about the particular pattern in your relationship, OR you can get started now with my couples course where I take you and your partner into greater understanding of one another at www.thesecurecouple.com

We are moved to seek mental health treatment when traditional methods of self-care are not enough, when life becomes too much to handle on our own. Regardless of your specific issues, we will be exploring the ways in which creativity (especially music) can help you meet the challenges you face. Through our artistic collaboration and talk therapy, we will be able to discover patterns of thought and ways of relating that may be transformed through greater self-knowledge. Being musically talented is not a prerequisite for music therapy, just experience with the immense depth of feeling that music provides.

Healing and transformation rests on the trust and support of the therapeutic relationship. I prioritize building an authentic relationship where you feel safe to be vulnerable without judgment. I aim to help you work through the core of your issues, not just a quick fix. I specialize in body-oriented psychotherapy that includes analysis of both the mind and body to deepen your understanding of your issues and to facilitate change. Working with the body can engender more meaningful awareness, symptomatic relief and transformation.

Encountering certain life experiences can be difficult, and we find ourselves struggling to overcome the obstacles. Learning how to respond and relate to our experiences can change how we navigate life and move toward what is meaningful and important. As a mental health clinician, my work aims to provide adults and older adolescents with comprehensive clinical care that considers the multifaceted aspects of an individual's life, including cultural, racial, and social identities. I offer a safe and supportive environment to help you process your experiences and cultivate the next steps in your life.

No matter what is pushing you to seek help and support, it takes tremendous courage to decide to enter therapy. It can be a scary proposition to ask for help and to take the risk of being vulnerable. My hope is that together we can embark on a journey to explore and address the areas of your life that you want to work on and change.

Has it become difficult to make friends, feel connection or love? Do you and your partner keep having the same fight without reaching a resolution? Have you been longing for connection, truth and authenticity; but keep bumping into fear and worry? If this resonates with you, you are not alone.

As a depth oriented therapist and life coach, I offer a safe, emotionally warm, non-judgmental therapeutic space for individuals and couples to examine behavioral patterns, explore and develop strategies to issues of anxiety, depression, confidence, shame, self-worth, self-esteem, grief, life transitions, and dating. I provide a safe and warm space for men, LGBTQ, multicultural and diasporic identities to express, and process their issues and concerns. Together, we will collaborate and explore mindful ways to remove potential barriers to the marital or professional relationship, career or academic progress you can achieve.

As they say, the only thing permanent in this world is change. Change, like people, comes in different shapes and sizes. It could be as simple as changing clothes, to more complex ones like a break up, death, or coming out. My goal is to help you manage and deal with changes in your life. By providing you with a safe and comfortable environment and my use of various therapeutic techniques, my hope is that you will feel supported, heard, understood, and obtain the necessary coping skills to help you through this journey called life.

You are brave because you are here, reading and thinking how things can be better. It is a big step to acknowledge when something is amiss, that the hurt you feel is real and undeniable–your shadow for many years. I know that somehow, despite your honest efforts, the same mistakes can unfold–the change you strive for can slip away. Beginning therapy means facing the world with an ally. I will believe in you, and together we will tear down the barriers that have prevented you from living the life you were meant to live.
