Teletherapy for 10018

The person sitting next to you feels like a complete stranger. You were once so in love and in sync with each other. Now you don't even understand what the other wants or needs . You fight over the smallest things and avoid any real conversation, putting one foot in front of the other to just make it through to the next day. The pain you have caused each other makes you just want to give up completely, but the truth is you are scared to lose this relationship. You feel stuck and don't know how to move forward.

I am currently accepting new clients. I offer a warm, empathetic, judgment-free, and safe space for adults. This space will invite you to explore all parts of yourself and create more meaning in your lives. I believe that individual challenges are unique to your experiences, circumstances, cultural and spiritual beliefs, and personal identity. I find that the most important aspect of therapy is the relationship between the client and therapist. With this uniquely beautiful relationship, I believe the path to healing is more accessible.

I am a clinical psychologist and BCBA-D and have worked for 19+ years with people seeking new ways of interacting, coping with grief and pain, better managing stress, expressing their individuality and creativity, and living more authentically. The therapeutic relationship is central to my work; I strive to be a reliable, compassionate, and informed partner. I believe an alliance based on trust, built over time, is essential to healing. My approach is creative, compassionate and practical. Together we will find meaningful solutions based on careful listening and a deep understanding of your concerns.

Do you feel like you are in a constant battling with your own mind or body? You may be struggling with intrusive anxiety, traumatic memories, or chronic illness. And your methods of coping are not serving you - you feel so locked in avoidance, suppression, or distraction that you can’t recognize yourself or what you stand for. Your life feels centered on avoiding pain instead of your most important values.

I am a trilingual LMHC with over 23 years of experience as a researcher, psychotherapist, and clinical supervisor. In Brazil, I graduated in Psychology, and I've worked for more than eight years as a Psychologist. I earned my Specialization in Health Psychology and my Master's Degree in Science from UNIFESP, one of the most prestigious universities in South America regarding Psychiatry and Mental Health. Therefore, I have extensive experience, especially in Trauma, Pain, PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Low Self-Esteem, Stress and Anger Management, Parenting Skills, adjustment problems, and interpersonal issues.

I realize that it takes great courage to look for help. In working together with you, I will listen carefully to your problems and goals. It is my aim to make you feel comfortable, to understand your challenges, and to provide you with the most effective solutions available based on current research and expert practices. To do this I use evidence based treatments that have been tested to ensure they are effective while tailoring these to your own needs and goals. These include cognitive behavioral therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, mindfulness meditation, and motivational training to help clarify and accomplish your goals.

I address problems with a focus on results, not intentions. Resolve that if what you're doing isn't working, you'll be willing to change it. Do you want to live purposefully, or will you continue complaining about what you don't have? While I work with past issues, I'll help you live in the now in a purposeful and rewarding present onto a satisfying future. Resolve that you'll no longer allow your choices to cause you pain and fear rather than peace and joy. If you can say "I'm sick of this. I am ready" then give me a call.

“Am I capable of overcoming this?” is a question those struggling with anxiety or grief may ask. You feel exhausted from carrying the weight of the world and cannot pull yourself out of the gravitational pull of habits, coping skills, or relationships that add more weight. If struggling with anxiety, this may be a familiar dance you wish to stop, or if dealing with grief related to the loss of a loved one, this may be a new dance you wish never started. Whichever is you, no wonder it seems impossible to overcome these obstacles continually thrown your way, yet there is a possibility – and I am here to support you in that discovery.

I have a commitment to utilizing culturally affirming and client centered treatment approaches. I strive to foster a safe space to openly discuss life stressors and support my clients in developing healthier and more satisfying relationships with others and most importantly with oneself. I value the benefits of a collaborative process, particularly in setting attainable goals and working at pace fitting to each individual client.

My clients are seeking therapy for wellness and mental health issues including depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, work stress, and self esteem issues. I have two decades of experience working with clients with diverse social and cultural backgrounds, including many musicians and artists. My role as a therapist is to help people overcome their barriers to optimal functioning. I strongly believe in recognizing everyone as holistic beings who have a multitude of capabilities. My background as a music therapist and psychoanalytic therapist is tailored to the individualized needs of my clients, for people in any profession.

Currently, I have openings for individuals. I am licensed in NY, IL, and CA working on Zoom. I have 20 years of experience helping people with anxiety/stress, trauma, depression, relationship difficulties, chronic health, and substance use concerns. My work is strength-based and emphasizes the development of resilience, interpersonal skills, and ways to better manage challenging emotions, thoughts, and life circumstances.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and direct. My focus is on providing a supportive and interactive dialogue with you to remove blocks, build upon strengths and resilience, and foster self-attunement to live more authentically and to attain the personal growth you are seeking. I provide individual therapy to clients of all ages well as comprehensive psychological evaluations. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, school refusal, disruptive behavioral problems, ADHD, chronic medical problems, chronic stress, and difficulties coping with life transitions.

Hello! I am a postdoctoral psychologist working with adults and older adolescents who are seeking relief from symptoms of depression and anxiety, loneliness, low self-esteem, compulsive thoughts and behaviors, or a sense of being disconnected from themselves or their bodies. They may wish to work through confusion about aspects of their identity, untangle from self-defeating interpersonal patterns, or heal from traumas ranging from physical and sexual abuse to invasive medical procedures. I have a special interest in women’s sexual health and wellness and can work with those interested in exploring this vital dimension of living.

Are you looking for an LGBTQAI+ affirmative therapist who is adept at integrating Western practices with psycho-spiritual healing modalities? I am an LMHC, certified in EMDR and hypnotherapy, with a transpersonal orientation. We all have tremendous potential to heal ourselves and I endeavor to co-create a compassionate space for that personal transformation to occur. I work with mood issues, life transitions, trauma, and interpersonal relationships, helping you to find clarity while simultaneously releasing limiting beliefs. We will work together intuitively to transcend what's holding you back from reaching your full potential.

Hi there and welcome. Taking the first step by reaching out for support is courageous and one of the best choices you can create for yourself during a time of struggle and uncertainty. Facing difficult emotional and interpersonal circumstances in our lives can make us feel overwhelmed and helpless but it can also lead to a time of strength and healing. I provide a warm, safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space for my clients facilitated for optimized growth and well-being.

People come to therapy for all different reasons. Perhaps you are feeling some discomfort or dis-ease, which may be getting in the way of your daily activities, social interactions or ability to focus on what needs to be done. Maybe you have concerns about or a desire to change unwanted behaviors, moods, or habits, or you may just be feeling “off” or stuck. Perhaps you are simply on a path of self-discovery. Whatever is showing up for you, I am here to help. My aim is to provide practical coping tools to alleviate symptoms/stressors, while also helping you to build a deeper sense of self, awareness, and overall well-being.

When words alone are not enough, creative explorations can provide a safe and supportive way to connect and work toward personal growth. For people who are articulate and intelligent, connecting what you know to what you feel can sometimes be surprisingly difficult. I work on connecting thoughts and feelings through a combination of talking, exploring familiar songs, creating improvised music, vocalizing, movement, visual arts, and mindfulness techniques. No prior experience in creative arts is needed to fully benefit from creative arts psychotherapy.
