Teletherapy for New York

I am a non-judgmental listener that can assist you in creating new alternatives for overcoming life's obstacles. I enjoy facilitating liberation, decreasing internalized oppression, disrupting trauma, transforming survivors into thrivers, sparking empowering epiphanies, overcoming challenges, increasing self-awareness, support healing and growth. In addition to being a clinical social worker, I am also a clinical sexologist that specializes in sexual literacy, treating sexual challenges, affirming pleasure and diversity.

Hi! My name is E and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked with a multitude of clients presenting with depression, anxiety, histories of trauma, relationship issues, family issues, & issues related to gender identity and/or sexual orientation. With a background as a speech-language pathologist, I also spent many years working in nursing homes and outpatient rehabilitation centers. I am passionate about helping people reach their goals and fullest potential, engage in relationships that feel fulfilling and healthy to them, have a deeper understanding of themselves, and to create a life that feels meaningful to them.

I work with emerging adults (ages 18-29) and professionals seeking to explore depression, anxiety, gender and sexuality, single-event, systemic and interpersonal trauma, self-esteem, creativity, and career and academic planning. We might be a good match if you often find yourself focused on the distressing feelings, body sensations, and thoughts that form in response to trauma and life’s challenges. Maybe you want to incorporate a mind/body approach to mental health, explore your attachment style, or learn new coping tools.

Are you unconventional in ways that makes finding a therapeutic fit hard? Need tailored sessions? Hi, I'm Locke! Whether you want to use sessions as executive function coaching, silent brainspotting, or cathartic chats, I'll aim to make it possible. Rationality-valuing, polyamorous, & LGBTQ+ neurodivergents with complex trauma report the most relief working with me, but my trauma treatment through individual and couple's counseling can benefit all. Survivors, especially those who don't wish to talk about their trauma, are as accommodated as those who do. Welcome, creatives, philosophers, and insomniacs needing flexibility!

You might not realize it yet but you know yourself better than anyone else. What I have found in my personal and professional experience is that the more connected and compassionate we are with ourselves, the more connected and compassionate we are to our surroundings. I am a Brown, queer, gender non-conforming, immigrant, psychotherapist. I practice from an anti-oppressive lens that acknowledges the impact of the many systems we navigate under everyday. Naming the impact along with an exploration of the self, can lead us to a deeper understanding of ourselves and our humanity.

My clients and I co-create a gentle and warm space for my clients to explore their identities and narratives. While doing so, issues and stresses related to family, work, relationships, education, intergenerational trauma, identities and transitions are likely to come up. Through introspection, connection, and skills learning, I am here to encourage my clients to grow into and sustain the most authentic versions of themselves. I am experienced in working with members of BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.

Heal and move forward with the right therapist in a nurturing setting! To get the most out of therapy, it is important to find a professional that is skilled in creating a safe, affirming therapeutic environment.  I am trained to treat people of all intersecting identities with a broad range of socio-emotional issues to find their way in life. To help my clients work through impasses and uncover deep personal truths, I position myself as an accepting and empathetic guide to promote healing, help people evolve towards a more stable life and, ultimately, attain fulfillment on their terms.

Art therapy uses the creative process to give visual shape to thoughts, feelings and experiences that may be difficult to put into words. Collaboratively, we can identify goals and use visual art as well as talk therapy to promote insight, development of coping strategies, and stress management. As a non-binary therapist, shared experiences allow us to establish a trusting therapeutic relationship as we connect with someone who understands our unique needs, enabling growth through self-expression, self-awareness, and self-empowerment.

You're navigating identities, relationships, and complex trauma—including religious—within LGBTQ+, BIPOC, kink, gender nonconforming, trans, sex-positive, ENM, and poly communities. You want a therapist with a deep, personal understanding of your experience, valuing a holistic approach. Open to exploring various therapeutic methods; you want to integrate somatics, attachment, queer theory, mindfulness, polyvagal theory, and spirituality. You resonate with personal growth and self-discovery and want a therapist whose diverse, empathic background mirrors your quest for authenticity and fulfillment. You're ready to be fully you.

I primarily focused my studies on communities of color, the LGBTQIA+ community, and the effects of pervasive trauma. I also am very interested in neurodivergent and anxiety disorders.

Are you feeling a little lost and frustrated trying to find “the right therapist" for you? Have you ever wished to completely be yourself in front of someone without worrying about being judged? Do you want to feel seen, heard, and understood by someone? I am here to help. I am ready to listen to your deep stories that you couldn't share with anyone and to better understand you with compassion, curiosity, and an open mind. As an immigrant with diverse educational, religious, and family backgrounds growing up in multiple countries, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate various cultures, institutions, and systems.

I am a full-time practioner, and have been a therapist for over 30 years. I have worked in many different settings. I am not accepting new clients, other than the folks i have already communicated with. Trust is an important part of any relationship. I understand that it is something that is created slowly, and maintained over time. I often serve as someone who bears witness to the stories people bring with them. By listening to those that come to see me, I better understand their experiences and then have an opportunity to assist them to fully heal.

Are you searching for an indentity-affirming provider? Looking for ways to overcome or better cope with trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD or other mental health symptoms? Curious if your relationships can be improved? I have more than a decade of training and experience providing gender and sexuality affirming, trauma informed therapy and DBT. My team works with individuals of all ages as well as families and couples. We help patients to explore how to improve their lives. My group practice provides opportunities to find the right clinician for you!

In times of crisis and uncertainty, it can be hard to remember our potential for joy, meaning, freedom, and connection. I act as an ally and accomplice, offering support as you walk the path of questioning and transformation. I believe therapy is just another word for the wisdom humans have always held – we hurt and are healed in relationship to others. Over the course of our work, clients gain confidence, learn to recognize and set boundaries, and grow more attuned to the present moment.

I treat clients from a wide variety of backgrounds and identities, but I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ adolescents and adults, and treat conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. I am hearing, am proficient in American Sign Language (ASL) and am experienced with Deaf culture.

I believe that finding an affirming therapist shouldn’t be so hard. Hi there! I’m Shelby (they/them), and as someone who identifies within the LGBTQ+ community, I’m unfortunately aware of how challenging it is to find providers who understand our experience as a sexual and gender minority (SGM). Although everyone’s experience is different, I understand what you are going through, how you’re feeling and some thoughts that have crossed your mind. ​Together we’ll problem solve, explore thought patterns and you’ll receive support.

Feeling sad, lost, anxious? Trying to find meaning and purpose in life? It's okay if you are feeling this way. Many of us are searching for our "new normal" and I applaud you for taking this first step toward better mental health in 2024! If you decide to work with me, you will benefit from over 17 years' worth of experience working with people of all ages and backgrounds. I have been providing individual and group therapy sessions in outpatient clinics since 2012 and in home consultation and family training since 2014. I am currently offering traditional individual talk therapy and/or ketamine assisted psychotherapy.

Thank you for looking at my page and congratulations on taking the first step in the changes you seek. Therapy is an intimate and trusting journey and the most important factor is your comfort level with your therapist. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been in practice for over 22 years. I am an easy listener who enjoys using creative approaches to help you move toward your goals with confidence. My Team, Creative Concepts Counseling, has had great success with both individuals and couples counseling (non-traditional couples especially) and we look forward to working with you. Also offering Clinical Supervision.

I'm so glad you're here. Finding a supportive, therapeutic home can be a difficult challenge for us as queer, transgender, and non-binary people. Therefore, I hold some values to create a safer space: you are the expert in your own lived experience; you already posses the strengths that will help you with the challenges you're facing; you deserve a place without judgement; and you are entitled to be your authentic self. I come from a cross-cultural, social justice perspective, and believe collaboration with you is necessary for your best self. I serve individuals and families.
