Multicultural Therapists in Sunnyside, NY

Necesitas cambiar para seguir adelante? Searching and in need for a breakthrough? La Terapia ayuda evaluar opciones y explorar tu ser integralmente. Psychotherapy is an exploration of your whole self; mind/body/emotions. Gives new insights on vital and difficult areas of life that sometimes present much like depression, anxiety or other vulnerabilities. My positive attitude and focus on wellness helps you go through tough challenges to get ready for important decisions. My therapy helps people to work on issues around substance use/recovery, grief and loses, chronic health, relationships and sexuality, LGBTQ affirmation and trauma.

How often do you think “If I can just get through this one thing, I’ll be fine.”? It can be challenging to define that ‘one thing’ and even more challenging finding a therapist you feel understands where you are coming from. In my work with you, we will work on getting to the core of what works for you and what does not in order to get to what is holding you back.

Hello, I'm Rose Guirand! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is passionate about supporting all clients in their lives who experience life challenges and have the determination to heal and thrive. I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for all people (18-80) who may be dealing with life challenges. This often takes the form of anxiety, stress, and self-esteem issues. I work to help my clients through these difficult times and build upon coping skills to help them feel better, empowered and reclaim their sense of autonomy in their lives.

The greatest discovery I have made in life is to embrace the unexpected, to crave the twists and turns as much as the great joys of life, and to lead with curiosity. Life can often feel scary, and we may face challenges that leave us feeling like there is nowhere to turn. If you find yourself feeling this way, you are not alone. Whether you are dealing with feelings of great sadness, anxiousness that feels uncontrollable, or struggling to move past an event in your life you have turned to the right place. Seeking therapy can lead to a greater understanding of yourself, the world around you, and the person you want to be.

You are unique. Using a client-centered approach, I work with your individual needs and focus for therapy. Sometimes a person may seek change in their lives or want to process their unresolved experiences and understand themselves better. Whether you are sad about the past or worried about the future, I am well versed in multiple therapeutic modalities to be able to help.

I am a compassionate and engaging therapist working with adults and youth ages 10+. For adults dealing with anxiety, depression, grief or loss, trauma, or life transitions, I offer non-judgmental listening and tools to move forward. I have a special affinity for working with caregivers, HSPs, creatives, and folks concerned with social change. I am an LGBTQIA+ and neurodiversity-affirming therapist.

I deeply value the bond I have made with clients and have found that the strength of the therapeutic relationship is based on the client’s ability to trust in my authenticity and passion for supporting them as individuals. I strive to be a genuine, empathetic, and passionate therapist. I work with individuals of all gender identities, races, and sexualities with acknowledgment of cultural competence and sensitivity.

You must be exhausted from life's many challenges and confusion about the state of your life. I am available to help you navigate and bring meaning to your life by listening and validating your feelings as well as providing compassion and support to do the hard work necessary for wellness. Each day is a new present, but traumas from our family origins may prevent us from moving forward. I will work patiently with you to set goals in therapy and work through loss and trauma.

Are you finding difficulty leaving a toxic relationship whether it be with your partner, family members, friends or your boss? Are you feeling powerless to change your situation? Is your constant need for the approval of others affecting your self-esteem? Are you becoming depressed and/or anxious as a result? Have you fallen hostage to discouraging fears and insecurities? Seeking support in order to regain emotional and mental health is the first step in taking back control. I can help you on this journey.

My name is Elizabeth DeAngelis and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NYC. I earned my Ed.M at Columbia University in mental health counseling. I also received an MA in psychology and religion at Union Theological Seminary. At Union I received specialized training about clients' existential/spiritual concerns. My goal is to offer clients a safe space to process emotions without judgment. I want to help clients explore their past and present stressors to overcome blockages in life. I work with client's to explore their past attachment patterns and traumas to help address current relational patterns affecting their lives

Let us work together to get meaningful change in your life. The stressors of life do not discriminate and will find us all at some point. While we are more than capable of handling them, we can reach a place where it feels exhausting. It is at this place that we forget about how capable we truly are and success feels out of reach....... that is where I come in. Side by side, we will help you find the courage you have always had to overcome your challenges and help you develop into an even greater you. Building upon your strengths and recognizing your limits are steps to self discovery. Positivity is key to self improvement.

As a psychotherapist and healer for many years it has been my privilege to offer and provide help and comfort to people in distress. Experience has taught me that we all struggle to recover from the pains of the past, deal with the challenges of the present and the insecurities of the future, in our efforts to live the best lives that we can. This often seems very difficult if not impossible to accomplish alone. A strong and nurturing therapeutic relationship is a powerful and stable foundation for dealing with these challenges to our well-being, especially in these very troubling and uncertain times.

While I love my work with all human experiences, I have specific insight and interest in working with members of the Muslim community. I provide individual and couples therapy and have special sensitivity to the culture, dynamics and nuances of an Islamic lifestyle in Western society. I work with clients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, intimacy challenges and navigating the professional world. In addition, I have special insight into intersectionality and what it means to have multiple identities. I work with clients who seek to incorporate and process their experience as an intersectional person.

Let's work together to overcome the stressors that have been burdening your life. Therapy by no means solves all the issues we face day to day. What I do is help you find the strength that you have always had, but has been buried by hardship. This happens to all of us at some point, and it is at that moment that we need help. Help is the service I provide, and am happy to do so. So, let's work together to find your strength, and overcome your adversity.
