Substance Use Therapists in Sunnyside, NY

Hi! my name is Xiomara Borja. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of Queens, NY with over 7 years of experience providing direct clinical services to adults, adolescents and children with mental health and substance use challenges. If you are seeking a psychotherapist, I imagine you or a love one are wanting to find a space to work on improving mood, manage daily life stressors, adjust to major life transitions or process traumas. You can expect a safe and welcoming space where together we can identify and address the stressors impacting your life and build on your natural coping mechanisms to meet your desired goals.

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.

Hey, I’m Biannis Arias. A Licensed Master of Social Work, based in New York City. Seeking help is a unique strength. Millions of people work with therapists to become better versions of themselves. I’ve worked with men, women, and children of all ages, races, and backgrounds. Everybody’s goals are different, but 1 thing is true: we want to improve. My approach is open, honest, and direct to help you make sense out of life’s challenges. As a WOC, I experience many of the same situations you may. I’m a culturally attuned advocate for well-being and personal accountability.

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.

Feeling depressed? Struggling with anxiety? Having relationship problems? Feeling bad about yourself, like you don’t measure up or that you’re not good enough? Not even sure what’s wrong, but just feel like something is “off”? I can help. I specialize in providing evidence-based psychotherapy for depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, and trauma. My therapy style is warm and empathic while also being active and engaged. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment in which you can feel heard and understood while working through your therapy at a pace that is comfortable for you.

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.

In all of my years of working with people- humans- this is what I've learned. We are ALL unique! And many of us tend to feel that our struggles, along with how we handle ourselves, is what defines us- and that's not true! We can only do what we can with what we've got!- with: what we've seen and learned, what we've been conditioned to do, our ability to emotionally self-regulate or not, opportunities presented to us, supports we have, our level of resilience, survival techniques we may or may not have, what we are capable of doing and achieving, etc! No matter what has happened in your life up until now, you have survived!

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.
