Teletherapy for Prospect Heights - Brooklyn, NY

I am a psychologist with expertise in working with anxiety, life transitions, identity formation, grief, family-of-origin, people living with a chronic illness (cancer, pain), ADHD, relationships, depression, men's issues, and existentialism (values, meaning-making). Outside of my clinical practice, I am a Professor of Psychology at Brooklyn College, with extensive teaching experience at the university-level and research program (over 20 peer-reviewed publications), including funding from the National Institute of Mental Health.

Our mission is to extend quality, affordable mental health services to sexual, racial, and gender minorities in New York State. We want to provide a place where people from all walks and life can feel safe and understood while receiving mental health care from a dedicated, nonjudgmental professional.

The therapeutic process can be one of liberation, insight and deep compassion towards your own humanity. Trauma, pain, shame and life's disappointments impact our bodies, minds and spirits. As your therapist, I hold hope for your process. I am a collaborative and relational therapist. I believe the healing process is a creative one, I have a multi-disciplinary approach to psychotherapy. As a Somatic Psychotherapist I know that healing and well-being must include our whole system in order to feel integrated and to know ourselves on an embodied level.

To be alive on this planet in this political moment asks a great deal of us all. We are all tested uniquely, and as members of families and communities, in our ability to grow and embrace the hardships and sorrow that we face in our every day lives. And in the face of those challenges you have come this far because of your very own special brand of survival. Whether you are feeling stuck in your relationship(s), struggling to overcome structural or systemic barriers, or finding the weight of your thoughts and emotions insurmountable, know there is a great deal of strength inside you and I hope we can unlock it together.

Hi! My name is Lily, and I am dedicated to thoughtfully collaborating with my clients on their journeys toward mental and emotional wellbeing. With a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental approach, I tailor my care to the unique needs and goals of each client. My priority is to foster a safe and trusting therapeutic partnership where clients of all backgrounds can feel embraced and empowered to share their stories. With the foundation of a strengths-based lens, I draw from a range of modalities, including narrative, CBT, psychodynamic, mindfulness, IFS, and other evidence-based approaches.

Life is hard. Let's team up to help you get through it as efficiently as possible. My educational background as an LCSW and your lived experience will help us develop a well-balanced life to deal with life stressors in an appropriate manner. I look forward to partnering with you.

Welcome! I am a Brooklyn-based psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples in New York City.

As a somatic psychotherapist, I integrate the mind, body, and soul fostering emotional, cognitive, physical, & social integration. I've observed the transformative impact of connecting to the body: releasing emotional blockages, tapping into its wisdom, understanding behavior patterns, and transforming stuck emotions into growth. I recognize the challenges of overwhelming environments, leading to reactive and dysregulated states. Despite intellectual self-awareness, there might be a gap in emotionally embodying authentic selves. This cycle can result in disconnection from self and others.

I am excited to offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) through Journey Clinical as well as mental health evaluations for people in need of letters of support for gender affirming surgery. I have over 20 years of experience in the Social Work field and more than a decade at Planned Parenthood. It's been my privilege to work with people across the spectrum of age, gender/sexuality and cultural experience. My commitment to reproductive justice inspires me to be a proud Pro-Choice Therapist. My practice integrates years of experience while never losing sight of Social Work's most basic tenet, "meeting clients where they are."

I am a caring, empathic therapist who can help you move forward in areas you might feel stuck in. I help individuals effectively deal with an array of issues, concerns and goals. I will work with you individually to help move you towards your goal(s) you want for yourself as well as help you think about what can be possible for you in how you think about, react and recreate your life.

I am often described as a warm, empathic person who creates a comfortable, supportive, and safe therapeutic environment. Unlike the distant, silent psychoanalyst stereotype, I am a real person in the room. I respond to what you tell me, ask questions, and will even share a laugh with you. My approach is based on the premise that relationships are essential in shaping who we are as people and how we experience the world.

With 23 years of experience, I am committed to guiding you on a pathway of healing. Many of my clients have a history of traumatic events throughout their lifespan, or have had a one time event that has not resolved. I utilize evidenced based treatment specializing in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as well as others (CPT, CPT-i, PE, CBT) to work through life experiences that have shaped negative thought patterns in order to move towards a more positive thought process despite previous trauma. The working goal is getting past the past; healing and having a new perspective on life!

Eliminate that dark cloud of anxiety and depression hanging over your life. Together we’ll walk out of that storm.

There are times in life when the work of being a person in the world can feel utterly unmanageable, if not downright impossible. Therapy should be a place of respite and recovery from these challenges - it is here that we can slow down, process, laugh, cry, heal, and grow. Everyone deserves a therapeutic space where you can be seen in the way you want to be seen, and heard in the way you want to be heard. In my work, I seek to create a collaborative space based on values of affirmation, trust, and compassion, in which we can explore and address the adversity that prevents you from leading the life you want to lead.

I'm drawn to Robert Frost's saying "the best way out is always through." It captures a sense of deep suffering and illustrates the type of relief that the process of therapy can bring. As a psychotherapist, I walk beside you on that journey. I offer a safe place for exploration and the accountability necessary for change. I am licensed in the states of New York and Georgia and see individuals as well as couples in my practice. In my work with individuals, I specialize in the areas of addiction, grief, and trauma. We’ll approach these topics with curiosity and compassion and go at a pace that works for you.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in Brooklyn, NY. I bring compassion, a strong skill set, and warmth to every person I treat. I strive to create an environment of comfort and safety as these are crucial for psychological growth and healing. One of the most important predictors of successful therapy is the relationship between the client and the therapist. My style is interactive and, perhaps most importantly, it is collaborative. Above all else, I work flexibly to meet each individual's needs.

I enjoy working with couples who are interested in an open / polyamorous relationship. I have found that short-term therapy can be incredibly useful in setting up these types of arrangements when boundaries, trust, and communication are paramount. I also work with couples who are struggling with these issues in closed relationships. It is my goal to help you develop mutual respect, understanding, and empathic communication. The individuals that I work most effectively with are those experiencing a big life transition (new baby, divorce, job, graduation, etc) with challenges coping or have unresolved trauma of their past bubbling up

I strive to create an environment of warmth and nonjudgmental curiosity, one where we can work together to explore patterns of thinking and behavior that are holding you back. I encourage you to slow down and become more attuned to thoughts and feelings you are experiencing, many of which exist just outside of your awareness. Once we become more conscious observers of our own lives, we can begin to act in new and healthier ways.
