Life is challenging. Though we all come to therapy for different reasons, each of us is ultimately seeking relief from some form of distress. My approach to therapy is to develop a safe, nonjudgmental and trusting atmosphere where you can freely express your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will collaboratively explore how your lived experience informs and maintains expectations and attitudes - about yourself, others, and the world - and how these may be supporting or thwarting your current efforts to meet your needs in relationships, reach your professional goals, and realize your innermost desires.

There is so much to say about healing that a little bio won’t do it justice. Healing is never linear and allowing yourself to begin the therapy journey will be the greatest gift you give yourself. Granted, it won’t always be pretty or comfortable and it may even get a bit tough but I am here to support you along the way with compassion and humor when needed. I have always been interested in human behavior and the way we're wired. We are fascinating beings. Therapy is a unique opportunity to learn more about yourself and the way you behave and respond towards yourself, others and the world.

Hi, I’m Yitzchok Wagshul. One day, my young grandson asked me what kind of doctor I am. I’m a clinical psychologist, so I replied, “I’m the kind of doctor who helps sad people feel happy.” He looked at me and said, “Zaidy,” (that’s “Grandpa” in Yiddish) "that’s not being a doctor, that’s just being nice!” That’s a cute story, but I want to tell you something: the better part of therapy is “being nice.” I know a lot of psychology. But if I didn’t respect each person I work with, if I didn’t view them with complete acceptance and unconditional positive regard, all of that would be worthless, because no one would listen to me.

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."

Healing can mean many things to many people, whether that’s community, growth, inner peace, recovery, or support. I see healing as an act of liberation. For queer and trans people, it is liberating to show up for our most authentic and embodied selves, and to have our pain, joy, passions, identities, relationships, and journeys nonjudgmentally witnessed. I see therapy as a space to sustainably build a relationship with all parts of yourself, and to feel that you are enough, worthy, and whole in the process. I offer an empathetic, collaborative, and compassionate partnership, where you decide the course of your healing journey.

My specialty is working with Black, brown and multi-ethnic, non-monogamous and QTGNC/questioning folks experiencing depression, anxiety/panic, complex trauma, and relationship or social transitions. In addition, I am experienced serving folks with a range of identities struggling with body image, disordered eating, substance misuse, self-harm, and chronic illness, including chronic pain and social stigma. I work particularly well with folks looking to decolonize their minds, relationships and lives, and generate new values-based, life-affirming constructs for themselves.

Acceptance is a word that is extremely important when reflecting on the reason I chose to become a mental health counselor. I believe that we are all on our own individual journeys of self-exploration, creating balance in our lives and accepting the difficult choices that we all must go through which will lead us through our own journey. I have learned that surrounding yourself with people who listen, provide you support, and create a positive environment will allow us to grow and become a stronger and healthier version of ourselves.
