Holistic Mental Health Counseling for anxiety, trauma and chronic stress from Brooklyn, NY

Are you seeking anxiety and trauma therapy in New York? Anxiety and trauma are deeply distressing experiences that can impact every aspect of your life. Beyond the obvious instances like combat, abuse, accidents, or direct events, trauma can also be the void left by something essential, the neglect of a crucial emotional need. Whether you're dealing with pain, flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, self-sabotage, depression, anxiety, or brain fog, know that there's nothing "wrong” with you.

Let’s find the most effective strategy for post-traumatic growth and healing in your life together!

The best approach to anxiety and trauma therapy for New Yorkers 18 and older

Whether your trauma occurred early in life, was chronic, or was a single episode, different therapy styles and approaches can yield better results. We acknowledge that traditional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) may not suit everyone, and that's why we offer a holistic psychotherapy approach that focuses on stabilizing, connecting, and calming the body and nervous system. Our approach recognizes that rational thinking can be challenging when we're in survival mode, and we aim to guide you toward forgiveness for the survival strategies that may have caused more pain.

Unlock Healing with EMDR and Somatic Therapy

Discover the transformative power of Somatic Experiencing and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). These approaches work with the physical body, nervous system, and trauma response without necessarily discussing the traumatic situation directly. Our licensed New York therapist, with over a decade of experience, will help you release the weight of past experiences and find a path to authentic healing.
