Therapists in New York, NY

I am a psychodynamically-trained therapist who is interested in hearing about past experiences where patterns might have occurred in your life. Coming from a Relational-Cultural and Feminist lens, I believe that cultivating a strong therapeutic relationship is at the utmost importance in order to provide a safe environment to build upon your own narrative.

Therapy with me is catered to you and the problems you bring to our sessions. I understand that you are the expert on your life and my role as your therapist is to aide you in finding the solutions that are not only practical, but address the issues that you believe are most important to you. Our first steps will be defining your goals for therapy and mapping out the steps you need to take to reach them, dealing with any bumps we might encounter along the way.

You’re alone. It’s awful not having anyone to share your accomplishments or sadness with. Constantly keeping all your painful feelings to yourself, you find it challenging to form or maintain relationships. You’re frustrated because you don’t know why. It feels like everyone lets you down eventually. You’re tired of being disappointed by others. People are now keeping their distance from you, so you tell yourself that you do not need any of them – but everyone needs someone sometimes. Your loneliness is eating at you alive. There’s an empty feeling that you can’t seem to fill. You just want to be loved and accepted .

My name is Stephen McNulty. I'm a Licenced Clinical Social Worker and a psychoanalytically trained psychotherapist. I'm a graduate of New York University and hold an advanced Certificate in Clinical Social Work. I'm also a graduate of the Washington Square Institute for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy.

I am a licensed psychotherapist and I support individuals through the process of growth and healing, self-discovery, and coping through difficult times. I am committed to helping my clients deepen their connection to themselves and build self trust. By gaining clarity on aspects of your life, whether it be what has shaped you, or what is currently keeping you stuck, I help you use this awareness to live a more intentional life. My therapeutic style is warm, active, and genuine. I strongly believe in the importance of building an authentic and trusting relationship in order for therapy to be effective.

Some of our problems may seem evident to us, easy to think and talk about. Others may have remained stubbornly elusive, sometimes for years, sometimes for as long as we can remember. Overcoming these problems can be exceedingly difficult. Psychotherapy proceeds on the understanding that insight into these problems can be developed in dialogue with another. Psychotherapists are essentially attuned, nonjudgmental, basically optimistic and trustworthy consultants.

I believe that everyone deserves to have happy, healthy and successful relationships, both with themselves & with the people in their life. Therapy is a process of learning and discovery that can help you heal. I want to be able to guide and encourage you, while also creating an environment where conversation is welcome. I believe in your value and worth as an individual and the dignity of making your own choices. You’re the expert on your own life and you should be treated as such. My approach includes empathy, authenticity and paying attention to how you are feeling in the moment.

Everything changes once you are heard. Telling your story and gaining a deeper understanding of yourself can have transformative effects on the present and future. Learning how to become an active participant in your life and regaining a sense of control are the goals of treatment. My therapeutic approach focuses on connection, empathy and empowerment. Change and uncertainty are inevitable, self-acceptance and support will allow you to live life forward.

I am an actively engaged therapist with more than thirty five years experience with young adults, adults, older adults (Medicare accepted), children, adolescents and their parents.

I assist people with Interpersonal concerns, internal conflicts, phase of life issues, resolution of trauma and loss, anxiety and depression, and parenting concerns.

We are stronger than we realize and we are capable of amazing things. As a therapist I have worked for many years in the field and I have encountered many of the issues that have come about in our modern world. One ideal that I attempt to instill in each one of my clients is optimisim and hope in themselves. Whether struggling with personal issues, having relationship issues or divorce. I work with my clients to help support them through the difficult times and see a more positive outlook on their situation. I believe each one of us possesses unlimitless potential to survive and become stronger.

Are your problems coming from yourself or from the difficult conditions surrounding you? Probably from both. My approach to therapy is to try to understand life specifics in order to deal with such problems as depression, anxiety, low self -esteem, addiction, and unhealthy attachments and relationships.

I am a person-centered therapist who works with individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, transitions, identity loss, self-esteem, and relationship issues. I strive to cultivate a safe space of compassion and non-judgment where we will work together to address the reasons that have led you to pursue therapy. I will help you reconnect with your authentic self, build on your strengths, help you improve coping and relationship skills, and work towards the ultimate goal for you to feel empowered to live your best life.

Is it true that between a dysfunctional political landscape, a sea-change in social values, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and the inflation that is eroding our finances, that life is "crazier" today than ever before? Now add the complexities of relationships, career issues or family problems and it's no wonder that level of mental distress appears to be on the rise with little end in sight. But, fortunately, an experienced and caring therapist can start you on the journey toward a healthier future. Check out my website at www.billbrosh.org.

With the proper support and guidance, therapy helps you cultivate your strengths, regain control, learn ways to overcome challenges, enrich your life, and take steps toward a more fulfilling future. I can help you identify patterns in your life so that you can develop a clearer understanding of your life experiences and create more positive relationships and productive behavior change. I take an active and empathetic approach to psychotherapy by establishing mutually agreed upon therapeutic goals with my clients and providing a comfortable space to explore, discuss, and be heard.

There are many reasons why we seek therapy; and they differ in terms of how problems and circumstances influence our lives. I work with adults, teens, and couples seeking relief from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, poor self-assertion skills, identity issues, and life stressors (such as death of a loved one, divorce, job loss, career change). I also work with college students in NYC living away from family and support; young adults launching into adulthood in NYC; and helping couples find solutions to problems in an otherwise satisfying relationships. Out-of-network reimbursement options are available.
