Relational Therapists in New York

The difficult thoughts and feelings that we hold deep within ourselves can negatively impact our mood, success, health, and overall happiness. In therapy, it takes bravery to unearth, examine, and learn from our life experiences in the therapeutic process. I help clients with many types of difficulties including anxiety, depression, work stress, culture and identity issues, adult ADHD, trauma, and social/relational problems with partners, friends, and family. Further, I have experience working with young and older adults, college students, high-level professionals, and executives.

Do you find yourself having difficulty communicating with others? Do you want to make a career change? Do you want to make other life transitions? Are you needing support with feelings of loss, anxiety, or depression? Are you having a difficult time expressing yourself in order to honor your TRUE identities? Do you feel that you struggle with finding your voice and your confidence? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, working with me might be beneficial to you. I am happy to share that I have openings in my practice for older teens (17+), young adults, and adults.

Do you ever question what you are doing, and where you are going? Maybe you feel stuck, unheard, defeated, anxious or angry. Do you find yourself reliving old patterns?

Our work together will build a foundation of trust and safety from within that will allow you to access your authentic self. We will understand how your past experiences impact your present and use our relationship to create real change that can help restore feelings of hope that may feel distant to you now.

My goal in therapy is to help you build a healthy life that feels good, grounded, and free. My practice is both sexuality and gender-affirming with a belief that you are the expert in your own story.

The most rewarding thing I do is help people create more intimacy & vulnerability with themselves and others. One of my main focuses is helping clients embrace their relationships in healthier ways. I enjoy working with clients who have blocks that are keeping them from desired romantic relationships.

I believe individuals understand their strengths and limitations best, and so my task will be in helping to deepen awareness.

As a Clinical Psychologist, I provide a safe and warm environment where my clients can explore areas of their lives that cause distress. I help clients to uncover their strengths and enhance their potential to heal. The process of cultivating self-awareness, exploring oneself and their relationship world, unpacking deep feelings, processing trauma, coping techniques, create change. When clients are listened to with compassion and sensitivity in a safe space, enormous transformation becomes possible. I also offer many adjunct holistic techniques such as reiki and meditation, if desired. I witnessed beautiful growth over the years.

Life transitions often lead us to feel overwhelmed. While people close to us may be supportive, we may not always feel able to share with them our doubts and discomfort. Whether we’re holding our own or a loved one's sexuality or gender identity; navigating changes in our primary relationships, or reflecting on adverse experiences, having a safe space to reflect and process is invaluable. My practice serves adult clients who have struggled with anxiety, live with trauma or grief, or who experience the world as members or allies of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach is conversational, strengths-based, and results-oriented.

Hi! I believe everyone has the capacity to change and grow, to heal from past trauma and to reclaim their relationship with themselves.

(Note: Formerly Wolf-Stanton Psychotherapy) We all experience some sort of pain, stress, trauma, or adversity in our personal lives and relationships. When our hearts ache, we search for ways to cope. These initial ways of coping often are adaptive in the short term. However, in the longer term, these same coping strategies may hinder further growth and healing. You and I can work together without judgment to dismantle painful experiences and cultivate a strong, empowered, and healthy core sense of self. You can realize your full potential and mobilize into healthy and constructive patterns of thought, behavior, and emotion.

Feel like something is holding you back from your potential and goals or like you aren't able to access your true self? Are you craving connection, meaning and deepening? Life stressors or transitions may feel overwhelming, or you may be feeling stagnant/stuck and unable to attain goals. Life situations and circumstances that challenge you are often the most rewarding and formative; yet adapting and managing your thoughts, feelings and behaviors in collaboration with a seasoned therapist can often make the process more manageable and the outcomes more productive and in alignment with your values.
