Adults Therapists in Gramercy Park, New York, NY

I am a licensed psychologist who provides psychotherapy to adults and couples. I aim to create a warm, supportive, and contemplative space for self-exploration, to help bring into awareness and transform patterns that are getting in the way of living a full and satisfying life. By exploring the underlying causes of suffering, and becoming curious about one's own mind, greater freedom becomes possible. I see this process as a dialogue in which I take an active and engaged role, asking questions and offering ideas.

In my clinical practice, I work with individual adults who struggle with forming their own identity (I often say I'm a good fit for people who feel like the "black sheep" of the family), discomfort in their body (which may express itself through difficulty with food, eating patterns, discomfort with sex). Working together in a safe and open space has been helpful and productive for my patients, allowing them to gain access to a sense of worth and fullness they didn't know was possible.

In my 20+ years of experience working with adults and couples, I believe that the therapeutic relationship and the safety it provides is key to change. My expertise lies in helping my clients work through their depression, anxiety and relationship issues. As an EMDR trained therapist I help my clients desensitize and reprocess traumatic memories and break free of the distorted negative beliefs they developed in a dysfunctional or addicted family system. The link between childhood trauma exposure and substance abuse is well established. EMDR can help treat alcohol and drug addiction by treating the trauma that underlies it.

In my practice of 25 years I have helped my patients overcome emotional blocks that had once impeded living fully in the present. I embrace a mind/body approach combining relational psychotherapy with Somatic Experiencing, CBT and mindfulness. I also employ EMDR and hypnotherapy to address problems stemming from trauma.

For many of the people who come to see me, life has become heavy. Getting out of bed is difficult, creativity and passion have faded, relationships have dwindled, and scrolling on a screen replaces human contact. Others feel they are not reaching their potential or realize that life still feels flat despite conventional success. Different remedies and ways of coping have failed or only offer temporary relief...something still isn't right. There is suddenly an urgency to speak.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in the field since 2018. I believe in creating a comfortable environment for my clients and ensuring that their wellbeing is a priority. I am a New York Native, born and raised in Queens, NY (Let's Go METS!), and an avid lover of cats. I've worked with adults of all ages from diverse backgrounds. I've worked with the elderly, veterans, active Army National Guard members, and clients with multiple diagnoses such as HIV/AIDS and anxiety. Additionally, I am only seeing clients from NY pending my Arizona LCSW License. At this time I am only accepting insurance through Headway.

I am a Clinical Psychologist in New York, NYU faculty, with a Post-Doctoral degree in couples therapy and training in group therapy. Specializing in couples, individuals, and people's affinities for others, I find that relationships can be wonderful. They can also provide a platform for people to both learn about (and get into trouble with !) themselves and those they love. I work with couples, individual adults & groups to relate to time in the following ways: acknowledge the past, focus on the present, and consider the future. This sounds easier to do than it actually is to practice. So many difficult things in life are like that.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing stress, anxiety (e.g., generalized anxiety, OCD, phobias, social anxiety and panic attacks) depression, issues with self-esteem and self-doubt, relationship issues, life transitions, and other difficulties. I value providing a warm, collaborative, open and non-judgmental environment to help you understand the connection between thought patterns, emotions and behaviors that are impacting you with the goal of making more deliberate, values- based choices to achieve a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

Life can be difficult at times. Many people who come to a therapist begin by saying they are unhappy, anxious or troubled by difficulties at work or in their relationships but don't know why. I view psychological symptoms as attempts to communicate something essential and understandable about our suffering, fears, and wishes-the emotional meanings of our personal history. I believe in respecting my clients' authority in their own lives, including in the therapy process.

As a member of the team at NYCBT, I provide individual therapy to adults who are struggling with a wide range of difficulties. In working together, my hope is to help you decrease your emotional suffering, enhance your relationships, and work towards meaningful change in your life. Additionally, I have experience in working with those who struggle with depression, anxiety, coping with past traumas, and relationship dilemmas.

I'm of the mindset that everyone can benefit from therapy. Each of us has unique worries and concerns that we 1) don't want to burden our friends and family with or 2) can't imagine anyone listening to without judgment. Therefore, choosing a therapist that you feel comfortable talking to is essential. The only way to truly benefit from therapy is to start off feeling understood, respected, and valued. With specific goals in mind I work with clients to explore their current situation from all angles - their history, current functioning, underlying feelings, and strategies/skills to achieve the change they desire.

Deciding to start therapy can be a daunting step. I believe therapy can be helpful in exploring relationship problems, couple/family struggles, mood symptoms, stress-related concerns, substance abuse, or learning more about yourself. My belief is that over time we can build a foundation to create a safe and trusting space to make it easier to share your experiences and challenges. By exploring aspects of your life that you find unfulfilling, we can work together towards positive change.

I view therapy as a unique relationship through which patients are encouraged to reflect on their life experiences with the goal of establishing deeper and more authentic connectedness with themselves and others. I aim to assist my patients in achieving a sense of personal freedom and growth in their romantic life, friendships and careers by understanding the ways in which family dynamics and prior experiences have helped to shape who you are today.
