Family therapy and counseling in Brooklyn, NY

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over five years of experience providing trauma-informed care and short-term therapy. I specialize in supporting frontline workers, helping professionals, and caregivers who are experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and work-life stress. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that healing begins in a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor who works with adults, couples, and young adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

My work is culturally responsive and shaped by a strong commitment to equity, identity, and whole-person care. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to grow.

Welcome! My name is Joel Kuppersmith, I am a clinical psychologist based in Huntington, NY. My experience in working with individuals , couples and families has been mutually gratifying. Although changes have occurred in the mental health field, including more targeted medications and claims for instant relief, I believe people desire a more qualitative overall improvement in themselves and in their relationships.

Starting therapy requires courage and strength even when we are in pain or dissatisfied with the way things are. It is difficult to open up to a stranger, to change the familiar ways of dealing with life and people. That is why I believe in providing a safe, nonjudgmental environment, where we will look at recurrent patterns in your life (for example why do you choose "the same type" of partners or feel so lonely or anxious, why do you often have the "same conflicts" with your bosses or friends) and gain insight into unconscious motivations of your behavior.

I specialize in behavioral excess (misuse of substances, sex and food) and mood disorders (anxiety, depression). Because of my belief in personal freedom I try to provide accepting and safe environment where we can talk about you and your life openly.

I am bilingual (Russian/English)and have extensive training in psycholinguistics.

Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and direct. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, while also gently challenged to grow. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, not judgmental, not passive, and not surface-level.
