Starting therapy is a courageous endeavor. You may be feeling stuck in a rut, having trouble managing stress, or struggling with your relationship with food. I work with adults and adolescents with anxiety, depression and eating disorders. With warmth and just the right amount of humor, I strive to help my patients cultivate meaning and find joy amidst difficult experiences.

Welcome! When working with clients, I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and identity-affirming environment in which my clients can fully express themselves and explore the issues they may be facing. I work with individual clients using evidence-based treatments from multiple modalities, such as ACT, CBT, and CPT. I offer art as an optional tool for clients to engage with as they are exploring their thoughts and emotions. In addition, I provide talk therapy through a psychodynamic and person-centered lens, meaning my focus is on my clients and how their past experiences influence their current thoughts, emotions, and reactions.

William James once said that the greatest discovery of his generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.

I am trained in CBT and insight oriented therapies, and most importantly believe in using therapy to create concrete and recognizable life changes to help you feel better. I believe fit and comfort between therapist and patient are key to the therapeutic process. Whether you are coming to reduce your anxiety, improve your relationships or build self-esteem, I tailor our work together to best meet your needs. I consider my role to help you gain support, but also to gain a different perspective.

I am psychotherapist with Masters Degrees in Counseling Psychology and Mental Health Counseling from Teachers College, Columbia University, and specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I specialize in supporting adolescents, young adults, and adults of all ages through life transitions, relationship issues, addiction and substance use, boundary setting, work-life balance, work-related challenges, body image, eating disorders, and anxiety & mood disorders, including depression. I also offer bilingual therapy services in Hindi.

Life is full of transitions and hardships, and for a person struggling with an Eating Disorder, Addiction, Anxiety, OCD, Depression or Relationship stress (whether as a parent, a partner, or a child) managing that change can often become overwhelming and more challenging. As a therapist specializing in the treatment of Eating Disorders and Relationships, I offer a safe and confidential space to explore both your past, present and what you would like out of your future, in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment.

Struggling with an eating disorder or body image issues can feel like navigating a maze with no clear path forward. It's easy to feel overwhelmed, scared, or alone in the journey towards recovery. But you don't have to face this challenge alone. If you or a loved one are ready to break free from the grip of diets, body shame, and over-exercise, I'm here to help. I welcome adolescents, young adults, and their families seeking support in this journey toward healing and self-discovery.

Therapy should be a space to help you better understand yourself and how you got to where you are now. My job is to help you do just that. I work from a non-judgmental, empathetic, and attuned place, to help you feel supported throughout your process. I believe therapy should be collaborative, and while not always comfortable, you will always feel safe and heard. We may laugh, you may cry, and you may laugh while you cry. Wherever you’d like to go, I’d like to go there with you.

My practice is informed by my firm conviction in the possibility of change, founded in extensive personal & professional experience. I employ an eclectic approach in therapy, with a primary focus on interpersonal, psychodynamic treatment. I have successfully worked with people struggling with many of life's central challenges: identity, relationships, depression, & self-defeating or self-destructive behaviors. I have particular expertise in working with people affected by alcoholism/addiction: not only those who have substance abuse problems, but also the partners or adult children of alcoholics/addicts & people in long-term recovery.

Making the decision to start therapy can feel overwhelming, but taking this first step is the most difficult part of it all. My name is Sibel and I am a counselor who believes in leading with empathy and compassion, with the hope of fostering a non-judgmental and productive environment for you. I am a culturally competent counselor with experience working with adults of all ages facing anxiety, depression, eating disorders, LGBTQIA+ related-stress, life transitions and more. Collaboratively, we will work together to create and achieve your goals at a pace that is comfortable for you.

I have been treating a wide range of patients in long and short term individual and group treatment for many years. I effect personality change through the use of interpretation, clarification and behavior modification. I emphasize with my patients a sense of well being. My ideal patient has to not only be motivated to change but willing to work through and resolve difficult aspects in their lives.

As a therapist, I prioritize getting to know the whole person and deeply value the unique relationship that grows within the therapeutic space. I have a special interest in the Queer community and work from a feminist, body positive orientation. My experience includes an array of settings and treatment modalities from eating disorders, intimate partner violence, intensive in-home family therapy to career counseling.

Life can be overwhelming. It is easy to get stuck in a cycle of anxiety, hopelessness, frustration and/or sadness making your days that much harder. Talking can help you feel in control and allow you to believe in yourself once again. My job is to help you find your inner strength and foster your self-esteem in areas where it may have been lost. I believe that through understanding and compassion, I can help you find those problematic emotions that can wreak havoc in a world that is already filled with chaos.

Good therapy can produce long lasting life changes. Although shifts in behavior and emotions can take time, even in the short term there can be immediate relief. I see the relationship between the patient and therapist as central to a positive outcome. Although we are all infinitely diverse and complex, collectively we seek to be understood. I listen with curiosity and empathy to understand each individual's unique experience. In treatment I create an atmosphere of trust where together we can identify your strengths, find practical solutions to problems and unfold underlying vulnerabilities that are obstacles to your experience of a rich and fulfilling life.

I am a warm caring psychotherapist with a direct approach with over 30 years of experience treating adults and adolescents. I empathize with how difficult it can be to speak with someone about very personal matters and I provide a caring and nurturing environment for patients. My specialties include eating problems, with an emphasis on binge eating, obesity, and anorexia. In addition depression and anxiety, grief counseling, women's issues, interpersonal relationships as well as transitions through divorce for individuals, parents and children.

Life comes with joy and pain, love and anger, accomplishments and mess-ups, and sometimes confusion. The times when we struggle and feel stuck or confused as individuals, as couples & as parents are often signals that it’s time to grow. I work collaboratively with my clients and have great success utilizing techniques from Internal Family Systems (IFS) as well as Narrative and Psychodynamic therapy to treat trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, grief and eating disorders. I also work with individuals, couples and families facing every day parenting, life and relationship challenges.
