Trauma and PTSD Therapists in 10007

I am the clinical director of SoHo Psychology, where I provide support and professional training to our community of dedicated therapists. As a therapist I offer warm and compassionate support while working to help my clients achieve their unique therapeutic goals. My work integrates relational and mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapies. I place great importance on the primacy of interpersonal relationships, which when done well, harness the power for transformational growth and healing. This is so for all relationships, and it is especially so for the therapeutic relationship.

Adelyn is a seasoned therapist dedicated to guiding individuals toward a life of fulfillment, purpose, and personal growth. Specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Adelyn brings extensive experience from working in Mt. Sinai Hospital system’s top CBT and therapy programs. She has treated a diverse set of adult clients across all life stages, navigating a wide range of psychiatric and medical challenges in both outpatient and inpatient settings. She specializes in trauma- and stressor-related disorders, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, executive functioning, and the intersection of medical conditions and mental health.

I am Licensed in New York, Oregon, and Washington. I have been trained in many approaches to therapy and I believe that it is my role to work collaboratively with my clients to find the approach that works best for them. I believe that healing takes place in the context of the relationship between therapist and client and that an important part of the work is developing a connection where one feels truly seen and heard. I also believe in helping my clients get in touch with deeper levels of awareness of their bodies/emotions and helping them to incorporate mindfulness practices into their lives.

I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients may reflect on past influences to move toward effective change. I work with people with a trauma-focused lens who present with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship difficulties, and family conflict. I work with adolescents, young adults, couples, and families. I work collaboratively with clients to work towards client goals. I am eclectic in tailoring my work with clients to the person I am with and what is most helpful to them.

I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety, and working with women as they navigate life transitions such as college/graduate school, relationships, marriage and new parenthood. Through an approach of curiosity and collaboration, I will work with you to explore patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting that get in the way of your goals. Together, we will discover the origin of long-held self-limiting beliefs and stories whether rooted in past experiences of trauma, attachment wounds or other difficult circumstances.

I work with adults struggling with relationship issues, addiction, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Many of my clients are high performers who have become successful despite a difficult childhood. If you are curious how therapy can help you reduce your suffering, improve your relationships, and help you heal from past traumas, I encourage you to reach out for a free consultation. I use elements of EMDR therapy in my approach. I am kink allied and sex positive. I invite you to come as you are. I will respect, support, and encourage you during our time in therapy.

Telehealth & In-Person options for CA & NY Residents. Your decision to pursue therapy is an important and personal one. Whether you are looking to address lingering issues or searching for support for ongoing concerns, you do not need to do it alone. Therapy is one of the few opportunities in which you are encouraged to explore and express your authentic self, allowing for deeper personal connections and engagement in life.

Did you grow up in an inconsistent, neglectful, or unpredictable household? Do you find yourself grappling with stress management and emotional regulation? Perhaps you experience a persistent craving for stimulation, or conversely, moments where you shut down. Our nervous system is profoundly shaped by our family origins, especially our early childhood experiences and the environment we were raised in. Left untreated, these patterns can lead to a dysregulated nervous system, harmful relationships with oneself or others, difficulties in self-parenting or parenting children, and challenges in forming emotional connections.

Are you seeking an insightful, engaged, practical process for achieving change, passion, and/or joy in your couple relationship? I bring 30 years of multicultural experience to help you change your patterns of stress, fear, and trauma. I use collaborative, resilience, and strengths-based approaches, along with creative mind-body approaches which are especially effective for trauma-related issues. Tired of labels and pathologizing diagnostic frames? As responsive beings we adapt to our challenges and at times our adaptations need an update! Drawing on our holistic and creative selves we explore ways to embrace our humanness.

Stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship issues come in many forms and tend to mask our awareness of our strengths and resources. Yet, it is the struggles themselves that help us to change and grow. Understanding this paradox is one way to find meaning and purpose in life. My clients benefit from slowing down, tuning in to their inner wisdom, and finding solutions to the stress, emotional pain, or emptiness they experience. My approach is holistic and integrative to help you identify recurring patterns, heal traumas, and make positive changes in your life and in relationships.

I take a creative approach to my client's needs by combining traditional talk therapy with mindfulness & body based treatment modalities and techniques, including Somatic Experiencing, attachment focused EMDR and Inner Relationship Focusing (IFR). I have over 15 years of experience helping individuals with issues related to anxiety, eating disorders, trauma (developmental, medical and shock), panic, depression, and relationship issues. Through our work together my clients will come to feel more understood, more comfortable and more confident in their lives.

I approach therapy as an active, collaborative process. I aim to provide a safe, compassionate and intelligent place to freely explore thoughts, feelings and experiences, take risks to work through past issues and current concerns, and identify and utilize core strengths to grow--and create more fulfilling lives and relationships. Years of clinical research and treatment with post-deployed combat veterans informs my practice: I believe that regardless of circumstances, we possess inherent strengths that, when harnessed, can move us toward wholeness, healing and extraordinary growth as individuals and in connection with others.

Therapy is about healing and self growth. It is about making decisions and achieving life goals. It is about bettering relationships and building meaningful ties. It's about working through, and living without the pain of loss, depression and anxiety. In an atmosphere of safety, trust and non-judgement, I will help you navigate those difficulties which foster anxiety, depression and confusion, recognizing the often, central role of trauma in such challenges. I will assist in the process of gaining insight, while making decisions which breed personal and professional success. I will help in cultivating and improving relationships.

Psychotherapy is fundamentally about discovering a deeper sense of personal meaning, greater self-understanding, and self-acceptance. It offers the possibility of coming into contact with a more enlivened state of being. Psychotherapy can help us move through life with a greater degree of freedom and flexibility, feeling more connected to ourselves and others along the way. My work is shaped by psychodynamic, existential, and holistic approaches. My complimentary background as a yoga therapist includes considerable training and expertise in embodiment and mindfulness practices, which I draw upon in my clinical work.

Sometimes in life, we face various problems or setbacks that impede our identity, self-esteem, relationships, and/or aspirations. Through therapy, we can safely and quickly develop ways to achieve your life goals and improve life satisfaction. I work dynamically and collaboratively to explore your inner thoughts and feelings to bring positive changes and meaning to your present life. In conjunction, I utilize specific ways to help you build your inner resources/skills to cope with daily life stressors, relationship problems, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other concerns.

You may have found yourself caught in a pattern of anxiety, overthinking, and a down mood that has led you to want change in your life. I believe in the power of collaboration and tailoring treatment to meet the unique needs and goals of each client. We will determine which treatment approach works best for you to reclaim your life and your happiness, whether that is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-Focused, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My personalized approach helps clients feel empowered to make meaningful change in their life.

Currently not accepting new patients. Are you someone who has experienced significant trauma or chronic stress in their life and is seeking healing and restoration on a holistic level? Do you have a history of complex trauma, such as childhood abuse, neglect, or attachment wounds, or have experienced a traumatic event that has left a lasting impact on your mental, emotional, and physical well-being? If you experience symptoms of anxiety, dissociation, disconnection from the body, numbness, depression, PTSD, somatic complaints or difficulties in relationships and intimacy, know you are not alone and help is here.

My main specialty is working with clients who have experienced any type of trauma, including sexual abuse and assault and incest, as well as working through issues that can develop when trying to cope with the trauma, including various addictions such as sex and love addiction, health problems, relationship and sexual difficulties, anxiety, depression, and others. I have an affinity with LGBTQ clients, and have supported them through the many challenges that they face, including transitioning, coming out, discrimination, identity development, sexuality, relationship difficulties, and others.

It is never too late or too early to work toward who you wish to be. You can feel happy, secure, hopeful, confident, and less stressed to enjoy your life fully. Life challenges can make it difficult to find peace, but engaging with therapy can help ease these symptoms and guide you in your healing process. With my experience working with adults and adolescents, I have helped people overcome symptoms of depression, anxiety, and trauma and improve their interpersonal skills.
