LGBT therapists in New York

I received my doctoral degree in clinical psychology from Yeshiva University's Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology and have spent my postgraduate career working in private practice. I have particular experience in working with folks struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties and self-image.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I'm a licensed clinical therapist with over four years of experience providing trauma-informed psychotherapy. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I often work with people experiencing PTSD/C-PTSD, dissociative disorders, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Many of my clients are also folks who have spent a long time feeling different, overwhelmed, or stuck in self-criticism. I aim to provide a warm, affirming space where you can feel authentically yourself.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, interpersonal relationship challenges, and difficulties with assertiveness.

As a licensed psychologist, I help clients achieve their goals and overcome challenges through a collaborative and evidence-based approach. Using a culturally responsive cognitive behavior therapy framework, I create a safe space for self-exploration and making meaningful change. Working together, my clients have reported improved mood, relationships, and self-image. I have helped clients change unhelpful habits, adjust to life transitions, and reach their goals.

Whether you are feeling down, depleted, or in pain; if you’re wondering whether you are good enough, or having difficulties finding the motivation to start your day, psychotherapy is an effective way of rediscovering yourself. It allows you to get to the root of your symptoms and find the answers you are looking for in order to create a more fulfilling sense of self. As individuals, we all experience depression, anxiety, trauma in our lives, often more than once. You do not have to go through these issues alone.
