Therapists in New York County, NY
My ideal client is a boy or young man, aged 10-25, struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, or self-esteem issues. They need a safe space to express themselves, develop coping skills, and build resilience. Their goals include improving mental health, emotional regulation, and self-confidence. Parent coaching is integral to my approach, with parents expected to meet with me once a month to support their child's progress and strengthen family dynamics. Together, we work towards empowering these young men to thrive in all areas of life.

Therapy can be awkward. Sharing your inner thoughts and feelings with a stranger can be scary. You might worry about being judged, misunderstood, or getting exposed. You might even have some bad experiences with a former therapist and are afraid of trying again. "Will this therapist understand cultural/family quirks?" "Will they think I am crazy if I share my religious experiences?" I get it! I help my clients work through anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, relationship issues, parenting problems, and spiritual concerns. This includes scrupulosity, religious trauma, and the spiritual/cognitive aspects of behavior.

Suffering is a normal and unavoidable part of human experience. It is our attempt to control or avoid our own painful experiences that can, at times, lead us to suffering beyond what is necessary. If we can learn ways to let go of the struggle to hold onto the pain, while becoming more present in our daily lives, we get move towards the life we say we want.

Therapy works best when you are motivated to make change in your world. Let me help you explore your present behaviors and identify what to change.

I use a trauma-informed, person-centered, and mindfulness based approach to therapy, creating an empathic space for you to feel safe to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I work with adults and teens around self-discovery, self-expression, and life adjustments. I believe that therapy works when there is a collaborative and trusting relationship that helps to empower to help you in your areas of need, while empowering you to use your strengths and learn tools to overcome difficulties. My practice is rooted in approaches that are compassionate and non-judgmental.
