Feminist Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

As a licensed psychotherapist I provide individual psychotherapy to adult and adolescent clients. I aim to create a warm, non-judgmental and collaborative space where clients can safely explore and process their emotions. My clinical focus has been around treating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma and women's issues. Working from a psychodynamic lens, I use self-compassion, mindfulness and inner child work and interventions to aid clients in healing inner wounds, working towards fostering internal self-worth and radical self-acceptance. -I have a few openings for new virtual clients-

My approach to therapy is compassionate, holistic, and energetic. I earned a Bachelor’s in Human Development and Sociology at SUNY Albany and a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Baruch College. I draw from different therapeutic modalities to ensure all of my clients’ specific, unique needs are met. I utilize psychodynamic theory as a framework while integrating aspects of cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, strength-based, feminist, trauma-informed, and dialectical-behavioral theories. I have clinical experience providing individual, family, and group counseling in both private practice and community agency settings.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! In my therapeutic practice, I work to support all clients in their exploration and healing around issues of gender identity, sex and sexuality, loss and grief, depression, anxiety, cultivating healthy relationships, and self-acceptance. I specialize in therapeutic work with queer and trans clients. I believe that the most important aspect of therapeutic work is the creation of an affirming and safe relationship between therapist and client. In this way, my approach as a therapist is one that first and foremost is warm, kind, and authentic.

Attending therapy can be both beautiful and challenging, similar to life. A job promotion can lead to imposter syndrome, having a baby can lead to emotional exhaustion and frustration, or beginning a relationship can feel exciting and ignite fears of abandonment. As your therapist, I am here to support you in developing coping skills so the challenges in life feel more manageable. In working together, we can both give space to the more difficult moments and feel excitement for the beautiful things around you.

I am not currently accepting new clients. Are you struggling with anxiety & depression? Feeling stuck? Have relationships in your life that you need to talk through? Are things just not feeling "right?"

Are you looking for a more embodied, connected, and fulfilling life? If you are seeking lasting, holistic growth, consider my integrated mind-body-soul approach that draws from lineages of experiential, relational, and somatic psychotherapy. I can help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself; cultivate more joy and stability in your relationships with others; balance your nervous system; tend to unprocessed grief; understand inner conflicts, mood and energy changes, unexpressed creativity, soul longings, and more. I work with both individuals and couples.

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.

At QuIPP, we are queer, non-binary, depth-oriented, feminist, and trauma-informed. Our therapeutic approaches include CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic and we seek to explore the deep impacts of others (familial, peer, and social) on the minds and spirits of our clients. Our clinical areas of expertise include: gender & sexuality, trauma, transition related support, and poly/kinky & sex positivity. Given that trauma and emotional pain often originate within relationships, we take a relational (and deeply compassionate) approach to therapy.

I fundamentally believe in the connection between the mind and body, and work from a client-centered, somatic approach. Through therapy, we'll explore your history, nervous system, and relationship to your body. With intentional work, we'll get a better understanding of your unique experience, patterns that your nervous system engages in, and how to learn and unlearn new ways of knowing.

As a therapist, I offer a supportive, compassionate, and non-judgemental space for clients to explore their experiences, thoughts, and feelings. I help them slow down to gain a sharpened awareness of the present, supporting them to make meaning of the past, and open the possibility for healing and desired change in their future.

As a therapist at Wellness Psychotherapy Services, I provide a nonjudgmental, affirming space for clients to deepen self-compassion and understanding. People seek out therapy for different reasons. No matter what brings you here, therapy can be a transformative process - helping you find where you may be stuck, allowing you greater self-awareness, and empowering you to build a life that is in alignment with who you truly are. My approach is rooted in empathy, support, and collaboration. I believe that every person has a wealth of internal resources and a deep capacity for growth.

You are creative, intelligent, and inquisitive, but feel like you’ve been left to figure life out on your own. You’ve been shamed for your sensitivity and depth of emotion and treated as the odd one out. Early on, you learned to hide parts of yourself to be accepted, loved, and connected. While on some level, this helps you survive, it also leaves you feeling exhausted, depressed, and anxious. You struggle to achieve things that seem to come easily to others, and while you’re trying everything in your power to move forward, you don’t know how to trust yourself or your decisions. You wonder what’s wrong with you?

I will meet you at your level of readiness for change and support you, as you strive towards authenticity, liberation, and growth.

Therapy provides opportunities for liberation - for understanding what the narrative in your life has been in order to realize what it could be. With curiosity and gentleness, we will explore experiences, relationships, patterns, and parts of your identity that feel limiting. I believe healing comes when you view yourself not as someone who needs fixing, but as someone who is complex and ever-changing and has continued to persist despite the messiness, conflict, and struggle life brings. I value transparency and see my role as that of a witness and guide as we create a space of validation, honesty, warmth, partnership, and growth.

Hello! Thank you for your time and interest in my work! My name is Sam. I'm a first generation queer Asian American practicing as a licensed mental health counselor for 8 years. I could bore you with my educational and professional credentials, but I'd like to tell you more about me. Beyond the therapy room, I am someone who thinks deeply about my role in relationships and interpersonal dynamics. I'm also someone who dives into art projects and will likely have an unfinished project in a corner!

I offer low-fee sessions both virtually and in-person, and I specialize in queer/LGBTQ+ subjects! You are the expert in your own experiences, but I’m here to offer warm acceptance and support, along with strategies to help you clarify what you want and how to get there. My priority is to build a strong relationship with you in which you can feel safe to explore your emotions, try new approaches to your relationships, and work towards positive change. I approach therapy with a client-centered and radically accepting lens, incorporating intersectional feminist, emotionally-focused, and psychodynamic therapies.

Are you a BIPOC, or Queer identified individual experiencing burnout? Or perhaps you've been feeling misunderstood as a person with different dreams than what your family wanted for you? Are you conflicted and thinking about making major changes in your life? Maybe you simply need additional support to help you process that next step? Making the decision to begin therapy is an important step toward self care and compassion. I can help you in your journey toward personal growth and healing. I create a warm, respectful and safe environment that gently encourages you to speak about issues that you want to focus on.

I am a certified sex and dating coach who helps individuals and couples of all kinds overcome sexual concerns like mismatched desire, low desire and sexual communication difficulties. My clients see an increase in the quality of their sexual interactions with partners and more confidence to ask for what they need after working with me. I also provide individual dating coaching to help people find the right partners and navigate the tricky waters of online dating. I identify as a feminist and work with all genders, orientations and relationship structures.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them understand the thought patterns, belief systems, and expectations that influence how they move through the world. It is a process whereby, together, we bring the hidden pushes and pulls of their lives into clearer relief and empower them to make the desired changes in their lives.
