Therapists in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, NY

I am passionate about supporting people on their journeys of self-exploration, empowerment, and healing. While this journey looks different for everyone, therapy provides us with a unique opportunity to learn more about ourselves- our identities, the people and places that have shaped us, and life experiences. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to show up for ourselves in this way and believe we can do so with curiosity and compassion.

There are many uncertainties and transitions in life that overtime can be unsettling, lonely, heavy, and profound. I believe that connection and community can help us navigate back to ourselves, our power, and our ability to evolve. Maybe we have some goals and clarity; maybe we don’t yet. Many times we need someone to hear us out with patience, authenticity, and encouragement. I aim to hold a steady place for individuals and couples, where we can explore these patterns, experiences, relationships, and beliefs with compassion and vulnerability. Then when you're ready we can take the risk of greeting change and creating momentum.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. We can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. We will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. www.helpmetransformmylife.com

I’m Ikeuchi Franklin. As a Queer female psychotherapist, I offer a safe haven for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) adults and families seeking profound personal growth and healing. By guiding individuals through their minds' intricate landscape with precision and compassion, I empower them to identify and challenge negative patterns, beliefs, and behaviors. I understand the nuanced challenges and systemic barriers these individuals and families face and provide a culturally competent and affirming space where identities are celebrated and honored.

I provide relational and somatic psychotherapy to individuals and couples who desire a deeper and more intimate connection to themselves. My definition of healing involves working with the heart, mind, body, and the soul. Through the integration of these parts, we learn to listen to the truth that lives deep within us and we develop a deep, unconditional, and unwavering love for ourselves. This self-love frees us up to experience more connection.

I am an experienced therapist trained in a number of modalities. I have had diverse life experiences so am open and attuned to individual issues and crises. My area of expertise is in relational trauma and family issues. I have worked with individuals from age 5 to age 65 across the spectrum of diagnoses and also with individuals without a diagnosis who are struggling either with relationships or in their work lives. My goal is to create a safe space for clients to explore their issues in an interactive process. I am interested in your history and your personal story.

Congratulations! If you're checking out therapists that means you've taken an important step towards personal growth. Whatever got you to this point - anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, career frustrations - It would be my honor to support you on your journey. Together we would not only work to manage symptoms and resolve problems, but also to help you understand yourself and your life on a deeper level.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, burn out, and those who feel stuck between their current routine and the life they want. I take a flexible, eclectic approach to therapy, ensuring that you get the session that will be most helpful for you. If you like open-ended sessions, we can do that. If you like structure or homework assignments, we can do that too! I encourage clients to get creative during sessions to make themselves comfortable. That could mean coloring or playing a game to allow you to go at your pace. Once you feel safe in our space, that's when you can start to really make progress to unlock your potential.

Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, personal growth, self esteem, and relationships. I also specialize in working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community. It is very important to me that my clients feel safe, understood, and heard, thus the modality of the sessions will be based on what the client is struggling with. I try to incorporate holistic therapy into the sessions as mind, body, and soul work together to gain proper balance in all aspects of life.

I have a heart to nurture, respond and support people through their emotions and life experiences. While the overall passion is helping people, I specifically find that aiding others in sorting through their relationships in their lives (romantic, familial, professional, etc) not only helps them grow, but ultimately it grows me as well. Ilook forward to the opportunity to help you explore and develop your “best self."

Welcome to my page; I am happy you are here! For many young people struggling to establish their career, relationships, and identities, therapy can be a refuge in a fast-paced world.

Whatever you seek to gain from therapy, I am here for you.

India R. Douglas, LCSW: I founded Pathway to Self to help others reach a deeper understanding of past traumas and provide tangible tools to move forward. Pathway to Self is a therapy platform that not only allows others to connect with themselves but through finding themselves they will be able to form stronger connections with others. Our understanding is that only when we find the “pathway to self” can we forge a pathway to “us” (or “we”). By helping people towards becoming the best versions of themselves, creating a safe space to express emotions of any kind. In a space where you are heard, validated, and affirmed.

Hello! I am a writer and psychotherapist with five years of experience working with clients in Brooklyn and Manhattan. I focus on symptom reduction using evidence-based practices and building a comforting and helpful therapeutic relationship filled with understanding and humor. I recognize it can be hard and harrowing to trust someone new when you’re seeking help; I seek to create a warm, supportive environment from our first session.

There are ups and downs, twists and turns, and sometimes we feel like we’re hanging upside down with no control. Life has become a list of never-ending stressors that have impacted you throughout various stages of your life. Over the years you have found yourself constantly repeating themes or unhealthy patterns. Maybe you have developed some awareness of what these patterns are but are not sure why they are occurring, how to stop the pattern, or what new patterns you need to develop. This is where I come in.

Hi there! I am a licensed, board-certified psychotherapist and founder of Art Therapy Collective (ATC). I provide therapeutic and professional development services geared towards self-empowerment to overcome the complex challenges of life with a creative approach. I emphasize creative and critical thinking, strength based approaches, and comprehensive cognitive, physical, and emotional healing within the therapeutic process.

Unprocessed childhood neglect, abuse, witnessing of traumatic events or recent adult interpersonal violence can weigh on us heavily. To reconnect with our natural potential and remember that our ancestors not only passed their trauma on to us but also their victory, I bring a culturally aware approach that incorporates the intersection of trans-generational trauma, gender, and spirituality to healing the issues that cause us anxiety, pain, discomfort and make it difficult to achieve our goals or feel at peace.

Every life has a history of twist and turns, with episodes of successes, failures, challenges, decisions, changes and losses. We often inhabit patterns that once helped us to survive, yet now hinder us in recognizing or becoming who we truly are. These patterns can affect a variety of life issues, such as goal attainment, difficulties in relationships, and our ability to communicate, leaving us feeling frustrated, confused, or stuck.

Are you feeling worried all the time? Do you feel hopeless or alone? We all experience difficulties in life, obstacles that hold us back from reaching our goals. Is work leaving you feeling so stressed you can't focus on anything else? Are family relationships difficult and emotionally draining? Is parenting becoming a struggle? Whether you suffer with anxiety, depression or relationship issues we can work together to figure out how to manage all these things and learn skills to help you cope.
