Therapists in NoHo, New York, NY

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I believe that sustainable growth happens when you feel seen, and when we are developing a safe and collaborative working relationship. Psychotherapy often focuses on improving coping skills, increasing interpersonal richness, and building a more solid self-experience. This work requires consideration of the underlying dynamics existing in emotions, ways of thinking, and relational patterns that are connected to—but sometimes larger than behavior itself. I strive to work from a place of curiosity, warmth, flexibility, and commitment.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, sad, anxious or angry? Are you dealing with the pain of past experiences that continue to impact your life and relationships? Therapy untangles difficult emotions and helps to inspire the insight and understanding that can lead to a more meaningful life, a healthier sense of self, and improved relationships. In our sessions, we can create a safe space for you to feel understood and empowered. We will actively collaborate together: to deepen your understanding of yourself, reduce emotional distress, create better ways of coping, and promote enduring healing.

Do you need to move forward in your life? I can help you to understand how the negative beliefs you hold about yourself may be preventing you from taking the steps you need to take in your personal life or career. I work hard to help my clients feel heard, understood, and safe in my office, recognizing that it is only in the context of a warm and nonjudgmental relationship that it is possible to explore the most difficult issues in a person's life--issues both unique to each individual and, in some sense, common to all of us as human beings.

I aim to work collaboratively with my clients to help them through the various road blocks and difficulties that life presents. People frequently limit themselves based on old assumptions and expectations and it can be freeing to start to disentangle this. The emotional pain caused by these issues is often isolating and confusing and I believe that it can be healing to have somebody else there with you to explore.

A good therapy experience requires a safe, empathic environment which promotes self-exploration and growth. My style is interactive, balancing detailed inquiry while allowing room for full expression of the client's concerns. I question assumptions, share my observations of automatic patterns in thinking, feeling and relating to others and draw attention to experience that is being avoided. In my experience this is where sources of depression, anxiety and problems in living are found. Exploring these patterns allows us to reevaluate their present usefulness and adopt new approaches, resulting in greater freedom and flexibility in one's life.

Whether you are looking for support to resolve a challenging problem that you have identified but just can't seem to resolve, experiencing interpersonal or family conflict or feel a lack of fulfillment in your life, I can help you to move forward. My academic and clinical training, maturity, more than two decades of experience and rich, as well as varied interpersonal experiences, allow me to provide a comfortable environment where you can achieve the insight and knowledge of self and others that will allow you to make the choices that will lead to greater self control, well being and life satisfaction.

My goal is to guide clients through self-exploration, self-awareness and resilience building that transforms them into self-reliant individuals. I integrate psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), DBT, relational, and mindfulness-based techniques tailored to specific needs. The therapeutic relationship is a partnership explored within a safe, non-judgmental environment, working at a pace that is comfortable for the client; we can explore short or long-term counseling. Together, we can work towards resolving feelings of sadness, anxiety, and understanding maladaptive patterns, gaining insight to change problematic behaviors

I work with young adults and professionals in their path to self-discovery and healing. I specialize in treating trauma and relationship issues. I have also been trained in cross-cultural psychology and help individuals to explore their multicultural identities. In addition, I apply the knowledge I have gained through my experiences as a leadership and management consultant to help individuals who are striving to find greater purpose and meaning in their careers.

I am a certified psychotherapist and treat individuals with symptoms such as anxiety or depression, reflecting deeper unresolved emotional conflicts that need processing and working-through. These conflicts cause mental pain and can negatively affect all areas of the individual's life: personal and professional relationships, intimate relationships, career development, general physical health and well-being. My orientation is psychodynamic. I am an out-of-network provider and can give receipts for reimbursement.

If you're affected by daily stresses of life, significant issues related to depression, anxiety or interpersonal relationships, I am a New York licensed psychologist and certified psychoanalyst that will help you resolve these problems. Clients gain insight into what's troubling them so that they can manage their issues more effectively. I work in an intimate setting, situated in a comfortable environment overlooking a private garden. It is a safe and confidential space. I work with people who are having difficulty developing and or maintaining significant relationships, experiencing depression, anxiety, low self esteem, feelings of being unlovable, or "just getting by" rather than thriving.

Therapy is about both addressing specific issues which may be getting in our way as well as cultivating a healthy curiosity about ourselves, our patterns, and our experiences. Life is wrought with transitions which can catch us off-guard, and it is common to feel unsure as to whether we are on the right path. Thankfully, these can be successfully navigated collaboratively and discreetly through a relationship with a trusted professional. Gaining an understanding of ourselves through identifying our blind spots is the first step in establishing a life that is both purposeful and fulfilling.

Orion Psychotherapy’s mission is to support expressive experiences of adolescents, adults, couples, and families that facilitate meaningful discovery and intentional change. I work with a range of issues focusing on a person centered approach to the work. That means I met you where you are with techniques that match with your struggle. I am trained and believe in an approach that helps treat mental illness and develop mental health as it is its own arena of skills and understandings. I encourage my clients to spend as much effort on working with their negative and dissociative emotions as they do with their positive ones.

We all have a natural resiliency, but sometimes need external supports to feel empowered. Combining use of verbal psychotherapy, EMDR, creative arts therapy, and mindfulness, I provide this support in a way that best fits each individual's needs. I work with all ages, with a specific focus on adolescents and adults. Through the context of a trusting therapeutic relationship, my clients explore issues, both past, present, and future. This brings about a deeper level of self-awareness that leads to personal growth, healing, and the alleviation of stress.

Family life can be complicated. From deciding to become a parent or struggling with creating a family to losing relationships or loved ones, and all of the ups & downs in between; you need a place to process the complexities that arise. Do you or your child need support to address what is troubling you? I provide a warm and trusting space to work on those challenges. I specialize in addressing issues related to adoption, attachment, grief & loss and relationship conflict in children and adults. I understand the importance connection and safety have on healing.

I offer a safe, compassionate space for you to be seen, heard, and supported to become the person you aspire to be. I am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and also find Internal Family Systems to be a helpful model. With a background in dance, yoga, and meditation, I have a holistic outlook, and rather than focusing on one methodology, I tailor my approach based on your needs. I begin by helping you clarify what you want from therapy and then facilitating your way there as you access your strengths.

The blend of coaching with traditional talk therapy, a safe space, and empathic guidance has the capacity to enhance one's ability to identify behavior patterns, work through difficult life transitions, and cultivate a genuine love for the self. In my practice, I encourage working towards personal growth, self-acceptance, and understanding. I believe that therapy should be a space and time for the client to feel comfortable expressing all thoughts and emotions that surface without feeling judged or alone. Emphasis on balance, positive thinking, and mindfulness in my treatment with clients creates a closer relationship with the self.

This world can be hard at times, particularly for people whose lives aren't included in the dominant narrative. As a therapist specializing in supporting LGBTQIA+ adults and teens, my goal is to combat the impact of these challenges and promote healing. I help clients to develop compassionate self-understanding, encourage authenticity, uncover deep personal truths, and hopefully attain fulfillment on their terms. I use a trauma-informed, intersectional, anti-oppressive lens.

I believe that what you are experiencing is real, and even more so, you deserve the opportunity to find purpose and joy in each day. My goal for our work together is to create a space in which you feel safe and supported to share your own unique story. Over time, and through the relationship that we form, we will begin to foster psychological change through the means of building awareness and understanding of how your past experiences influence your current expectations, perceptions and behaviors.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unmotivated in relationships, career, or life in general are reasons many seek psychotherapy. I honor the courage it takes to reach out for support. I work collaboratively and compassionately to create a safe environment in which we can learn to understand how you came to be who and where you are now. Talking about and exploring your unique individual history, mental processes, feelings, interpersonal patterns and possible trauma can lead to clearer understanding and insights which can be transformative. You will learn to develop ways of coping which will lead to long-lasting positive change.
