I believe therapy should be a space where you can be completely yourself without fear of judgment. I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) and Registered Art Therapist (ATR) with over 10 years of clinical experience and have been in private practice for the past seven years. I earned my Master's degree in Art Therapy from New York University and previously worked with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in inpatient psychiatry at Mount Sinai Hospital. My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and person-centered, incorporating CBT, DBT, art therapy, and additional training in Jungian and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed approaches. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-awareness, and create meaningful, lasting change

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Brooklyn
Searching for addiction therapists in Brooklyn starts with finding someone whose experience matches the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use disorder, gambling, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and changes in relationships or daily routines. Look for a therapist who lists experience with addiction recovery, substance use support, or behavioral concerns in their bio. Relevant approaches may include motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, and coordination with a prescriber when medication management is part of your care team.
Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right fit depends on more than location. You may want an office near transit, a virtual appointment that fits your schedule, or a therapist with evening availability. Recovery can involve changes over time, so it helps to look for someone who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and experience with harm reduction frameworks. Before booking, read therapist profiles for details about their style, session structure, specialties, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Brooklyn can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who may accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
