Whatever it may be that brings you to therapy, I can offer a warm, safe, and engaging space for you to explore what is getting in the way. I am interested in cultivating your awareness to allow you to uncover patterns that no longer serve you.

Do you feel lost and uncertain what your "purpose" is? Are you longing to live a more authentic, joyful life? I myself have faced these same questions. My name is Tyler, and I'm an NYC-based queer, trans & multicultural therapist. I believe that the values and beliefs that we learn in childhood can hold us back from living in alignment with ourselves and finding true contentment. In therapy, we will examine and shed unhelpful beliefs that hold you back, and uncover your most authentic self. I am passionate about supporting young adults navigating the transition out of school, dating in the city, and finding passion in their career.

Emotional distress is too often pathologized when it's a reasonable response to the oppressive systems in which we live. Instead of trying to "fix" you or help you not feel any difficult emotions, I believe all feelings hold information, and we have the power to discover what that information is and choose what to do with it. I would aim to support you by helping you name and feel difficult feelings with more ease and less overwhelm, treat all parts of you with curiosity and compassion, and determine what your emotions are trying to tell you so you can feel more relieved, empowered, and connected to yourself and others.

You are ready to celebrate the full you. You dream of moving beyond whatever is keeping you stuck in unhealthy patterns. You are tired of trying to fit into a world that was not designed for you. You want to respond instead of react, improve your connection to others, and be grounded in your body. Even when some areas of your life are going okay, things still feel hard. You may have tried therapy many times before but it never seems "to work" and you are ready to try something new.

Self-compassion is a great buzzword, but it's easier said than done. Sometimes you have to avoid or fight feelings and parts of yourself. Maybe you feel overwhelmed, worn out or conflicted. Maybe you are not satisfied with your core relationships. This could be because parts of you are stuck in past experiences and those parts are using the tools they have (like avoidance, self-criticism, anxiety...) to protect you from more pain, even though these tools don't always serve you now. Together, we can welcome and get to know each part of you slowly and safely, and introduce new tools for coping and making change.

I believe that genuine relationships have the power to heal. And the relationship between a client and therapist is a particularly unique bond. Irvin Yalom has described this relationship as one of 'fellow travelers' on an adventure of mutual growth and discovery. As your fellow traveler, I’ll stand alongside you as an active collaborator on your journey. My hope is that together we can uncover the most expansive and alive version of yourself. Together we will create a space where all parts of you are welcome. As women and queer people, we’re often conditioned to think there are fragments of ourselves that must remain hidden.

Are you struggling with difficult family dynamics or a lack of support from your environment? Are you finding that the tools that you have turned to cope, like substance use and avoidance, has taken hold of your life? Are you feeling exhausted or constrained by treatment that sees your experience as a disease and dispenses formulaic solutions? You are not your symptoms and you deserve care from someone who wants to join you, sees you as the multi-layered complex person you are and supports your vision of healing in mind.
