I utilize a culturally sensitive approach to address the many traumas, pitfalls, and overall experiences that are unique to the melting pot of our growing world.
Life has its way of sending us on paths that we’ve never actually intended to be on. Have you ever put an address in your GPS and while you’re driving, it starts saying, “Rerouting”? It’s sort of like living life with a plan (or even without one) and the unexpected sends you for a tailspin. Welcome to this thing we call ‘life.’ Especially during these days. *sigh and group hug*

I am passionate about ensuring my clients feel seen and understood for who they are as people first and foremost and work to cultivate a therapeutic relationship that works for them personally. "The only thing that's capital-T True is that you get to decide how you're going to try to see it. You get to consciously decide what has meaning and what doesn’t.”-David Foster Wallace

Sometimes life's challenges, transitions, or conditions are more than we can handle. Feelings of sadness or fear overwhelm. We realize that the way we are living is not how we want to live but are unable to make changes on our own. Unhealthy relationships, dealing with disappointment or loss, feeling alone, or struggling with an inner critic, are a few examples of what leads people to reach out to me. In my practice I largely employ the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model as my framework but also draw techniques from CBT, EMDR, DBT, mindfulness, somatic experiencing, and psychodynamic psychotherapy, when needed.

There are a host of reasons one may seek Individual, couples/partners, or sex therapy. You may be dealing with issues surrounding a relationship, anxiety or depression, looking to change maladaptive patterns or shift from a negative self-image that has held you back for far too long. I work with individuals, couples/partners to help bring clarity and understanding to the issues present, and find solutions. I work toward reestablishing a sense of harmony and good communication so that they may find that space in which they feel secure and confident with each other once more.

As a child as early as 1st grade, I gravitated to children who were left out or bullied, sharing my snacks and toys. My family reminds me I have come full circle and it was my destiny to be in the field of helping. As an adult, I witnessed the disparities in mental health care. There are often gaping holes in completion of treatment, and I want to be part of the solution to closing these gaps.

I am Teresa Horton, LCSW, Columbia University graduate. I discovered the field of social through my sister's chronic illness as a child. The hospital social worker who worked with my sister and family opened my eyes to the compassion that is needed in caring for and connecting to families undergoing unanticipated difficulties. As a child, I knew I wanted to help others with processing difficult life experiences.
