Therapists in New York, NY

Thanks for taking a moment to find out more about my services! I enjoy working with individuals (including adolescents) and couples and specialize in Premarital, Interfaith, Multicultural, and Infertility work. I strive to create a safe space for my clients to share, be heard and witnessed, explore, heal, and grow. My style of working with clients is relational, holistic, collaborative, and creative. I deeply believe in a client-centered and strengths-based approach. My counseling technique is a combination of depth oriented, family systems, and experiential therapies (i.e., art/play therapy, mindfulness) with the goals of insight, healing, and behavior change.

My goal as a clinician is to help you feel free. In treatment, I will invite you to bring your whole self into the room, as you are. Together, we will work to identify the ways in which you feel stuck and shift unhealthy patterns that keep you from moving forward. Whether it be for an acute issue or chronic stress, for symptom management or general exploration, I will help you both accept your authentic self and also courageously change that which no longer serves you. Through this process, I believe you will begin to better know who you are, identify what you want, and live a richer, more meaningful life.

I have experience working with a variety of clients with various life experiences.

Relationships are hard, conflict is normal, and seeking couples therapy does not mean your relationship is broken. Just like there’s no singular “right way” to be a human, there is no single “right way” to be in a relationship. Decades of romantic comedy films and fairy tales with people who “lived happily ever after” are, quite literally, fiction. Whether you’re seeking individual or couples therapy, Caitlin believes that meaningful change tends to occur when people can shed societal expectations of what they “should” be, in favor of embracing who they are.

Down bad? Feeling wonky? Lets talk about it. I help clients with a variety of issues by tailoring my therapeutic approach to their unique needs and goals. I want everyone I work with to realize their full potential by restructuring maladaptive thought patterns that lead to distress and poor functioning. I hope to give my clients the space to process their thoughts and emotions, and understand the ways in which their behavior and subconscious beliefs about themselves and the world around them play into false narratives that ultimately keep themselves down. I strive to help my clients to learn to love themselves without condition.

Many of my clients relate to the experience of feeling "othered", different or as existing outside of culturally-constructed margins. In our increasingly isolationist world, feeling different or other is becoming a common experience. While many things may remind us of our difference, or "non-normativity", in therapy I aim to collaboratively uncover and identify the worth and purpose that I believe exist in all humxn beings. I believe that all concerns, struggles, challenges, curiosities and explorations brought to therapy are related to relationships--the relationship we have with ourselves and other people. Often, clients express a need for deep connection and goals involve enhancing relationships, identifying emotions, coping more effectively with emotions, and nourishing self-worth and confidence. Research on therapeutic effectiveness has repeatedly demonstrated that therapeutic relationship is the principle determinant of positive therapeutic outcome. Thus, when I first meet clients, client-therapist relationship and chemistry is the primary emphasis and catalyst for change.

I'm glad you're here! I help people free themselves from painful relational patterns and start feeling calm, safe and authentic. We will work with experiences that are keeping you stuck, like trauma, marginalization, and difficult relationships, so that you can feel and process your emotions, heal past wounds, accommodate yourself and truly be you. I offer individual therapy, couples therapy and therapy for all kinds of relationship structures, including non-monogamous relationships and blended families.

If you: ​Avoid conflict by appeasing others, struggle to set boundaries and limits, struggle with relationships, put off verbalizing your needs, feel resentment or anxiety, overdeliver leading to exhaustion, wonder why you are not being heard, strive to please others while sacrificing your needs, or are a child of an alcoholic / addiction, I can help you improve your relationships, increase self-esteem, prioritize needs, set healthy boundaries, sleep better, communicate your needs, and re-establish self care.

Life is overwhelming. There's so much that we are navigating and have pressure to get everything right. The last thing we want to struggle with is the very thing that helps us endure the challenges of life: relationships, sex, & our bodies. Do you find yourself trying to keep everything up and watching your relationships falling by the wayside? Sex & Relationships are important. We have so many ideas about it stemming from media, friends, family, religion and our own sexual history, which can be very confusing and isolating. Sex therapy helps make sense of what you know about sex, sexuality, & relationships

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with an extensive background in research, clinical assessment, diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, my clinical approach is informed by empirically validated treatments and techniques, including psychodynamic psychotherapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Like using psychotherapy outcome research to inform my clinical work, I employ a methodological approach to disentangling the various biological, social, and environmental factors that may be contributing to your current and past difficulties. My approach is intensely collaborative and transparent in nature.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master's Degree in Human Development and Family Studies, as well as Bachelor's Degrees in both Psychology and Sociology. I strive to provide clients with the space to explore life's obstacles in a nonjudgmental environment. Whether it is relational hardships, family concerns, or individual stressors, I believe that everyone can benefit from the space that therapy can provide to work through these issues. I work with clients to explore issues from all angles, while providing a listening ear and the helpful tools to work through the issues they are grappling with.

I specialize in working with couples & adults who have experienced the deep pain of complex PTSD & the profound impact it has had on their emotional well-being & relationships. If you have a strong desire to feel more connected with yourself & your partner but feel held back by the trauma you've experienced, or maybe struggling with patterns of self-sabotage, difficulty trusting others, or feeling stuck in your past experiences, I am here to help. My goal is to empower you to break free from the shackles of your trauma, heal & develop the skills to create a safe fulfilling, meaningful life. My approach is integrative & comprehensive

My philosophy is simple in regards to problem solving, effective communication, improving relationships, working towards reaching a personal maximum potential and in healing from trauma. It’s to identify thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs. I believe that as soon as a person is able to communicate these four insight oriented drives, life immediately begins to improve and problems get solved. While this may sound easy, for many people it takes time to gain insight, self-evaluate, uncover and accept why we are the way we are (ie: biology and life experiences), decide on and follow through on changes to make in their life.

People start therapy for different reasons. Sometimes people come in to see me during a period of transition - starting or ending school or work, moving to a new city, beginning or leaving a relationship. You might feel something isn't quite working in your life, like you're frustrated, uncertain, or slightly out of step. Maybe you feel yourself hitting the same walls in friendships or relationships repeatedly. Maybe you feel lost. I'll work with you to help you find what's getting in the way of getting what you really want from your life and to find a way forward that feels right to you.
