Spirituality Therapists in Flatiron, New York, NY

Life is a tapestry of experiences colored by our culture, background, and personal narratives. Throughout my 20 years in mental health, I have worked with individuals from all walks of life, including victims of narcissistic abuse and people in toxic relationships. I’ve always been inspired by how our backgrounds and experiences make each one of us so diverse and vibrant. My goal is to help you understand and embrace each thread that makes up your unique pattern. I specialize in supporting adults through various life transitions like career shifts, school, navigating parenthood, marriage and divorce.

IMMmediate ONLINE openings in NYC area. You’ve been struggling with anxiety and trauma for too long. You’ve tried therapy, meditation, yoga, but your anxiety still overwhelms you. Are you looking for a Holistic Therapy approach to address your needs as a sensitive person? We all have an innate ability to heal and prosper. But often due to trauma or emotional and mental habits learned in childhood, we lose touch with this capacity. Highly sensitive people have a strong intuitive sense about this, but often ignore it, which can lead to a breakdown in mental, emotional, and sometimes even physical health.

The decision to enter therapy is often fueled by a desire for growth and change. Having worked as a grief counselor for 17 years, I have had the opportunity to help many people as they learn to navigate the major life changes that come with loss. The death of a loved one often triggers unresolved issues and I have helped people cope with relationship issues, family conflicts, anxiety and self esteem as they deal with the ripple effects of loss. Loss and change of any kind can turn one's world upside down. But it can also be a catalyst for growth as old ways of coping are set aside and new ways of being in the world are explored.

The following questions are common: Why can’t I sleep? Why don’t I feel like myself? Why do I feel numb, depressed, anxious, stressed, and panicky? I cannot deal with my family, friends, or school and work! How do I deal with discrimination, oppression, microaggressions, marginalization, racism at work or school, etc.? The feelings and symptoms you are experiencing may be about your body and mind trying to adjust to difficult and stressful life experiences. These circumstances heavily impact your ability to stay positive and focus on work or school due to feeling. Especially with everything that’s going on in our world right now

The work of therapy entails a deep, genuine engagement with ourselves - at times the unknown or unpleasant parts of ourselves. As with all challenging tasks, therapy is most rewarding when approached with honesty and openness. I have been practicing psychotherapy with individuals and couples for 15+ years and I am committed to offering my clients expert and compassionate help on this courageous journey. I will work with you to tailor a treatment that is both comprehensive and responsive to your needs, whether they involve difficulties with a loved one or problematic patterns that you find yourself recreating in your life.

I help people find their inner strengths, which may be difficult to recognize during times of stress, anxiety, depression or trauma. I offer a holistic, experiential approach to therapy that includes talk, creative expression and body-mind awareness. You can expect our work together to be collaborative and relational. With a warm, grounded and compassionate presence I offer you support to challenge old patterns and create a fulfilling life.

I’m a holistic psychotherapist trained to provide high quality, compassionate support to children, teens, and young adults navigating challenges of anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress, self esteem, and disordered eating. I have a particular passion for serving the LGBTQ+ community and work from a gender- and sexuality-affirming perspective. My experience in a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness, allows me to tailor my therapeutic approach to your unique goals and needs.

The decision to enter therapy is courageous and important. Removing obstacles (such as anxiety and depression) that prevent well being and overall happiness, creating and enhancing relational experiences, coping with trauma, grief and loss or reaching professional goals are worthy and healthy desires. Whatever the precipitant to ones decision, we all have a need to be respected, heard, understood, and to feel safe, cared for and truly "gotten". It is both my belief and years of experience that tells me these conditions are necessary for long lasting, transformational change to occur. Together, we will actively work on helping you achieve your therapeutic goals

I offer my clients a safe, creative space to explore the challenges they're confronting honestly and without judgement. Whether you are exhausted from constantly overthinking, feeling shutdown emotionally, struggling to change unsatisfying patterns or trying to cope with loss; we can work together to help you slow down, tune in more deeply to your inner life and heal past wounds. The stories we tell ourselves about our lives have an enormous impact on how we feel day to day. Together, we will take a look at your story to integrate thoughts, feelings and values into a cohesive whole you can use to write your next chapter.

Perhaps you are at a crossroads in your life; or, feeling stuck in some way and want to reflect on what brought you here and where this stage may lead. If this describes how you feel, you are taking a courageous step in seeking a therapist and I support you in this courage. I am ready to listen, explore your needs and whether or not you may want to make changes. I will work with you to set goals for yourself and in making desired changes. I have years of experience successfully working as a relational psychotherapist and alcohol/drug counselor.

Connection heals. Maybe you’ve been told that you’re broken or sick. We believe you are fundamentally well — and we’re here to help you connect or reconnect with your authentic self. We get it because we’re in the same healing process. That’s how we know it works. We’re a unique group of therapists who challenge the status quo in the field of mental health. We’ll partner with you to ensure you’re aligned in all areas of your life: tending to yourself, cultivating healthy relationships, and investing your time and money in a way of living you believe in. That is our goal. That’s why we choose to do this work.

My approach to supporting others to heal, grow, and better cope with life challenges and transitions incorporates awareness-building, cultivating acceptance and compassion, and providing a space that invites the possibility of exploring new ways of being. These elements empower individuals to take ownership of how they choose to create their lives and to find greater wellbeing and fulfillment. We often do not realize that the very habits and behaviors that cause us to feel stuck or block us from having what we want were necessary tools for survival at some point in our lives. Understanding such patterns is an important step.

Our beliefs and assumptions about the world inform our feelings, which in turn, influences our behavior. Many of those assumptions however are not entirely our own, or even in our conscious awareness. They come from our parents, communities, traumatic experiences, or a less developed version of ourself. Living a life that does not reflect our authentic values often results in inner conflict that negatively spills outward into our intimate, familial, and professional relationships. Taking time to explore what thoughts and values belong to our authentic selves, is one of the most important gifts an individual can give to themselves.

I bet you've probably spent a good deal of time sifting through the sea of clinicians listed on this website, and let me tell you, it is a beast. Finding a good therapist is like dating. Who looks smart? Who seems warm and compassionate? Who's attractive? Nobody is perfect, but you don't want to settle either. Perhaps they have great insight and are very pedigreed, but don't seem particularly warm or approachable. Or vice versa. What to do? Shop around until you find a proper match. You are unique. Not every therapist may suit you.

Often time, people begin psychotherapy as a result of feeling disconnected from themselves or the world. When overwhelmed by life, you may notice feeling drained, disconnected, dissatisfied with your relationships, and at times physically unwell. In therapy, I create a safe space to explore past, present, and future struggles and work towards goals in order to live a more insightful, balanced, fulfilled life.

Therapy is about meaning making. I listen closely to my patients without judgment and without jumping to conclusions. My goal is to understand you on your own terms—free of any rigid diagnoses or other labels. I believe that the heart of this work resides in the therapeutic relationship itself, and to this end, I seek to build bridges of clarity and comfort between us. Our work together will consist of attempting to understand you in a holistic, depth-oriented manner. We will consider how your past might be influencing your present and examine how certain patterns in your life might not be serving you well.

What do you want and how do you get there? I help people address and overcome the obstacles preventing them from achieving what they want in life. Whether it's issues of substance use, depression, anxiety, relationship issues or other obstacles, we will work to find a balance that will make your life a more desirable and enjoyable place.
