Therapists in SoHo, New York, NY

Acknowledging your desire to begin this process is a brave first step. Everyone has gone through periods of time where life feels overwhelming and challenging. Individual Therapy is a space for you to visit where you can feel understood, and not judged. Our time together can be short term if you are working through an acute crisis, or longer term if you need a place to work through deeply rooted feelings of low self worth, anxiety or depression. I am able to work with couples upon request.

You were having a nice day, walking back from lunch, when it happened. You glanced into a shop window and accidentally caught a glimpse of your reflection. At once, all of your confidence and self-assurance evaporated. You were immediately plunged into a tailspin of shame and inadequacy. You hate how you look and don’t know what to do about it. You’ve gone to extreme lengths to change your appearance; dieting, exercise regimens, and even speaking to a cosmetic surgeon, but it’s no use. You desperately want to feel more comfortable but don’t know how. So you hide from the world and hope no one sees you. But this is no way to live.

Many of us live on autopilot, plodding along well enough but without the vitality, agency, or connection that helps us feel in control of our lives. Psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalysis provide the most gentle—and most enduring—routes to greater self-understanding, decisional and emotional freedom, and saturated aliveness. In our work, we’ll explore the problems that you currently face, of course. But our goals go far beyond managing symptoms or finding quick fixes. Instead—with curiosity and courage—we seek to understand how your unique mind has come to make sense of and navigate your interpersonal and sociopolitical worlds.

Many of my patients have never had the experience of being truly listened to, or heard. The transformative potential of that experience is fundamental to my practice. The confidential setting of psychotherapy enables completely open expression away from the self-consciousness and fear of judgment one may feel when confiding in friends and family. Safe self-expression enables recognition and awareness; through that awareness, we can facilitate real change.

In our life journey we all go through turbulent patches, unfortunately some last longer than others. Often we stay idle in an unstable state because it is familiar, but not necessarily healthy.

My goal is to help you feel comfortable navigating your life, reach a deeper connection, overcome barriers, and feel confident about your decisions.

You feel alone, misunderstood and anxious about showing up as your full, authentic self. You feel emotionally disconnected from loved ones because they don’t get you anymore. Or maybe they never did. You find yourself searching for meaning in life while trying to understand who you are and where you belong. You feel lost and terrified. Those around you don’t understand, nor do they see how much you’re struggling. You’ve become good at hiding how you really feel. Sometimes you feel others may be better off without you. You're close to giving up, but you want to make a change. You long to be understood and accepted, and to belong.
