With all the division, conflict, and uncertainty in the world today, its natural to be feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, and lonely. Do you have a stream of negative self-talk in your head? Do you struggle with your relationships, intimacy, sexuality, work, and self-care? Do you feel like you're not heard? In a compassionate, safe and non-judgmental environment we can work together to turn down the negative volume in head and become a better version of yourself and feel comfortable being your genuine self. We'll work on your current issues and changing life-long patterns.
I have worked with NY's diverse population for over 25 years doing psychotherapy and supervision. I am a progressive, sex positive, LGBTQ friendly, body positive, trauma informed therapist. With wisdom, experience and compassion, I seamlessly use talk therapy, mindfulness, CBT, dreamwork, art therapy, relational, affirmations and humor.
I aim to have you feel more comfortable with yourself and expressing your thoughts to me. My clients say, " I felt comfortable with her immediately and noticed significant improvement in my confidence, anxiety and overall mood. Our sessions the perfect balance of talking about problems and Elana providing helpful techniques and asking meaningful questions."
