Therapists in Brooklyn, NY
Working for two decades with individuals and couples has continually shown me the value of therapy, and I have abundant respect for the courage it takes to seek help. I integrate relational, mindfulness, EFT, IFS and other talk therapy perspectives and, when it feels right for my clients, EMDR and Somatic Experiencing. These latter two modalities address trauma as well as many other areas of life. A certified EMDR consultant, I facilitate trainings and provide individual/group supervision for fellow therapists working with EMDR.

We are up against special challenges for our times, I think. If you have been feeling restless, distracted or unhappy, it is to be expected. But chances are, therapy can help. You may be thinking about therapy because of a life change, behavioral concern, dilemma, stuck feelings, or crisis. A good, therapeutic relationship can help you find more contentment in your life, be more present in relationships, think more creatively and improve your self-esteem.

Look, life can be hard. That is just a fact. However, it does not have to be. When armed with the tools necessary to help raise your level of awareness and effect your current situation, life can be beautiful, peaceful, calm, and sometimes even easy. Having been in therapy for over a decade and now armed with the knowledge I’ve gained in my education, I have an intrinsic understanding of the radical benefits of therapy. I see relationships as fundamental to our wellbeing and strive to create a welcoming and supportive space for families, couples, and individuals to explore their thoughts, behaviors, and emotions.

When a client comes to me for therapy, they are seeking some way to not just share their problems but to find solutions and remedies based on their own effort. The point having therapy is for the individual to be able to find their own answer based on what works for them and created on their terms. The reason that people would want to achieve this autonomous feeling is because this develops into a security that the individual can feel confident in themselves to rely on themselves when tackling life’s problems and everyday obstacles.

You may be here feeling your emotional pain has been too much for you to hold inside alone any more. You may have tried very hard to feel better but nothing has worked to heal from the pain. You struggle to feel happy and confident no matter how hard you work, and you wish you were like someone else who looks happier and more successful. You notice your constant criticism, guilt, and shame towards yourself, and find it difficult to be compassionate towards yourself. If this resonates with you, I would love to help you get unstuck and heal from this endless pain and feel confident and content with who you truly are.

I believe therapy is an opportunity for people to explore themselves and their relationships in order to create space for self-acceptance and deeper connections. I know how difficult it is to find an engaging and authentic therapist that can help you make long lasting life changes and I am ready to meet you where you are in your healing process. My number one goal is to help you live a balanced, happy, and fulfilling life. Together we will achieve this by working towards your goal both within and in-between sessions.

I am particularly interested in disrupting maladaptive family cycles and patterns and understand that breaking free of these cycles — rooted in everything from trauma and systemic oppression to the demands of navigating the modern world and family dynamics — is both deeply inspiring and also feasible. Bearing witness to this transformative change in my client’s lives is one of my greatest honors.

Are you a professional and ambitious woman with people-pleasing tendencies? Standing up for yourself may bring up feelings of guilt or anxiety but not doing so may leave you frustrated, resentful or depressed. There’s a way to live more authentically and to have deep connections with others.
