Teletherapy for Williamsburg - Brooklyn, NY

Expansive Therapy is a 100% LGBTQ+ owned and focused therapy practice. We wanted to go beyond checking a box for queer affirming therapy to creating a practice that was committed to the community, where queer people could bring their whole selves into therapy. Queer theory asks that we look at the world in a new way, not through a heteronormative lens, but from each individual perspective which is unique and perfect. We are passionate about understanding the unique challenges of our community and helping our queer clients to heal.

I specialize in working with young professionals, executives and teens. With so many uncertainties and challenges to navigate, you may be overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck in patterns that aren’t moving you forward. I can help you make the changes needed to be your best self. With 15 years of experience as a therapist, lecturer, supervisor and coach I connect extremely well with clients building trust with humor, sensitivity, and a laid-back style that gets results. I’ll help you develop practical skills and strategies to enhance your relationships, improve your decision-making, and feel more confident.

I am an eclectic therapist where I take bits and pieces of therapeutic theories into account for each client, tailoring the therapeutic approach for each client.

Beginning the therapy process can be daunting, but you deserve support to feel calm, confident, and able to achieve your personal goals. My style as a therapist is highly collaborative which means you have a voice in this process. My ideal client is looking to create a therapeutic relationship where personal healing can happen.

Right now, I'm trying to put myself in your shoes. The first question that I typically ask my clients is "What brings you here today?" You will answer that question in a way that only you can. Reaching out for help isn't easy. It's a lesson in vulnerability. You're taking the first step by searching for a professional and trying to make sense of the way you're feeling right now.

I am a licensed mental health counselor based in Brooklyn focused on creating authentic, collaborative relationships with my clients to foster intergenerational healing. I incorporate my training in complex trauma and somatic work to specialize in trauma, loss, and identity issues among immigrant, 1st and 2nd generation individuals. As a mixed race (Puerto Rican/Korean) second generation American, I appreciate and am a constant student in the complexities of identity, belonging, and the reality of how systemic inequality impacts someone’s ability to heal.

I work with adults who are confronting a myriad of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma, and navigating life changes. I believe whole-heartedly in the importance of work that addresses both symptoms and their root causes, understanding the time, attention, and support it can take to tease out these often-tangled threads. I recognize that while all individuals have the capacity to heal, not everyone has been given the context in which to. I always endeavor to provide support that facilitates that process, and to help my clients explore their inner landscapes.

My counseling style is pretty laid back. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a pretty good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles.

With recognition that every individual is informed by their unique experiences and environments, it is my aim to enter your reality and explore it with you through a lens of curiosity and acceptance. I warmly welcome individuals looking to navigate aspects of their life related to identity and self-esteem, life-transitions and burnout, family and interpersonal relationship dynamics, communication skills, anxiety and depression, anger management, perinatal challenges, and other presentations of life stressors.

I view the therapeutic process as a collaborative relationship between the therapist and the patient. I assist individuals in recognizing their personal strengths while also developing new life skills. I see myself as an eclectic practitioner, offering experience in a variety of modalities of treatment, and I provide treatment that is based on your presenting issues and how to most effectively help you reach your goals.

Seeking a therapist is the first step towards taking control of your life. Maybe you’re feeling pain, stress, frustration, or hopeless. You’re tired of pretending to be happy and sacrificing your own needs for the needs of others. Sometimes, you’re balancing so much you’re not sure what to tackle first.

In private practice for twenty-five years. I embrace a safe compassionate approach with persons suffering from depression, anxiety, relationship and childhood trauma. I use EMDR, mediation and Somatic Experiencing to connect mind, body and spirit. I am open to examining "isms" informing experience, especially work with bipoc clients. Scheduling a psychotherapy appointment is daunting--but courageous. Experience is essential to finding a right therapist. With a seasoned therapist, you will realize that depth and meaning is essential to "conversation". Authenticity, empathy and clarity create balance and love in work and play.

This can feel ... exhausting. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment in which you feel comfortable putting that performance aside. I believe that we begin to heal through relationships. My hope, for our therapeutic relationship, is that you feel safe to be honest, authentic, and vulnerable about whatever your life looks like right now, while together, we reflect on what may have led you here.
