I take a person-centered approach to therapy. You, the client, are totally in charge of where this journey takes us. I believe that the core of successful therapy is in the bond between client and therapist. As such, I always meet my clients where they are at and work to build a strong relationship through genuine and honest conversations. I am skilled in CBT/DBT, and I hold a certification in Clinical Trauma Treatment (CCTP). Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with adolescents and young adults to build introspection, curiosity, and compassion in order to address their concerns with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Listen, life can get really messy, so let's dig in together. Because you are worthy of growth and change and happiness.

We know the world feels uncertain, and even inhospitable at times. You may be feeling anxious, lonely, down, and worried about your future. Maybe it's about school, relationships, your family, past traumas, or the effects of biases and discrimination. Maybe it's a combination of all of these. We get it. And you are not alone. Our clinicians at J&L are here to listen and support you. We are a a New York City-based private practice made up of highly skilled psychologists with many years of training and experience among us. We offer a range of services to individuals, couples and families. Our clinicians work in our Manhattan office and provide video sessions to clients in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Florida. We may be reaching more states soon. See our website for more information. We can help.

Our practice has transitioned to teletherapy/remote sessions for the time being to do our part in helping diminish the spread of COVID-19. Please visit Zocdoc to see my open availability and book a session!

Are you frustrated by how anxious thoughts take over your mind? Have you noticed when this happens and the cost that comes with it? Do you find yourself overthinking situations in your romantic or familial relationships? Does this impede your ability to honestly identify your needs and speak up for them? It can be frustrating and anxiety-inducing to step out of your comfort zone and stand up to unwanted emotions, but the life you want to live is waiting for you, and together as a team we can tackle these issues! I practice through a psychodynamic lens often honing in on your strengths and helping with solution-oriented approaches. I am a strong believer in the power of mindfulness and breathwork. I provide a warm, safe and nurturing space for you to uncover what may be holding you back from connecting with yourself and your needs. I help clients express their feelings and fears in order to work through them so that they can enjoy a place of higher self-esteem, authenticity, and abundance. I am passionate about working with adolescents and young adults who are motivated to do the courageous inner work to shift from a place of anxiety and suffering to greater certainty and joy.

I'm Siena, a queer, trauma-informed Psychotherapist, Doula, Yin-Yoga Instructor and lifelong Musician from Brooklyn, NY. As a Psychotherapist, I believe in encouraging personal growth through education, cultural awareness, and building trusting relationships. I know that patients are experts in their own experiences and understand the importance of the collaborative therapeutic space being unbiased, open-minded, and strength-driven. I treat individuals and couples of all ages with concerns ranging from interpersonal conflict to transitions, family planning, identity, mood fluctuations, trauma and stressful life events. I received my masters in Mental Health & Psychological Counseling from Columbia University, with specialized training in Reproductive & Maternal Well-Being. I am also a DONA International Doula, which means I am passionate about providing holistic focused care to people as they navigate premenstrual (PMS), STD, fertility, family planning, prenatal, loss or postpartum mental health & adjustment concerns. As a queer therapist, I hold additional degrees in Gender Studies, and have expertise in LGBTQIA+ affirming care. My goal is to always build a safe, inclusive healing environment, where individuals can nurture their identities, build community and receive resources with advocacy that is whole-person focused. In session with me, you should expect to feel heard, feel at ease, feel understood and reassured. I will guide you through examining self-care measures and communication strategies - using compassion to ground yourself in your values and your goals. Your surroundings, history, cultural background, support systems, health and passions are important to me. My clinical experiences include daycare child developmental monitoring; group private practice; hospital settings: volunteering at Mount Sinai & New York Memory Center; and school settings: providing mental health care & neurodiversity services to CUNY & SUNY student populations. I am also a psycho-education content writer & consultant.

In my practice, I routinely see students and young adults dealing with issues such as: -social anxiety and more generalized anxiety -feelings of depression or depression-like symptoms -struggling with procrastination or avoidance -relationship problems -experiencing difficult feelings due to social media -body image issues -trouble coping with family dynamics or family conflict -adjustment issues in college or post graduation when faced with the next steps of their life -creative individuals feeling stuck or insecure about their work. I provide LGBTQ affirmative counseling and practice both virtually and in my office in New York City. I also offer a free 15 min consultation to ensure we're a good fit!

There are 6 therapists including myself in the practice. We are all different in our approaches and areas of expertise. Our fees are flexible, as are our hours. We are offering in-person sessions. All of us have worked with students since the start of our careers. In fact women roughly ages 18-25 is our favorite population to work with. We believe the fit between client and therapist is the most important aspect of therapy. You feeling listened to, not judged and that we are focused on helping you is our goal.

With over 8 years of experience in mental health and as an Asian, Queer Native New Yorker, I deeply resonate with you if a part of you is a high-achiever, perfectionist, or people-pleaser, yet you also find yourself prioritizing others over yourself. You appear to be put together, but deep down, you're stuck in processing intergenerational trauma. You feel overwhelmed to tap into this discomfort. But you’re ready to be with it, to bring a change that allows you to slow down, to feel, and to build your inner resources for generative connection. Most of all, you’re ready to embody the wisdom of your lineages and roots. I want to help you get there. As an EMDR trained therapist, I specialize in working with people of diverse backgrounds — high achievers, adoptees, helping/healthcare/finance/tech professionals, young adults, athletes, creatives, QTBIPOC, & immigrants — who have trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, or ADHD. Together, we will find your authentic voice through experiential, integrative, anti-oppressive practices, EFT, Gestalt, parts work, and somatic approaches. I’ll meet you where you are on your unique journey and offer you the support you need to live and thrive abundantly. A life where you are empowered by your body's wisdom is possible. You don’t have to continue feeling disconnected, and you don’t have to do it alone. Call or email me today for a free video consult call. I look forward to hearing from you.

Feeling overwhelmed or a little lost? You're not alone. College is a time of immense change and self-discovery. Whether you're just starting out or nearing graduation, navigating new friendships, academic pressures, and the search for your own identity can be challenging. I'm here to offer a safe, supportive space to explore your inner world and discover your true self. Using a depth psychology approach, we'll work together to uncover any unconscious patterns that might be holding you back. I welcome individuals from all walks of life – regardless of cultural background, sexual orientation, or gender identity. My goal is to help you find balance, meaning, and a deeper connection to yourself during this transformative time. I only provide in-person office appointments in NYC. My office is located in the Flatiron District of Manhattan. The Park Ave 23rd St Subway Station is just steps away from my door. I provide services for people living in all five boroughs of NYC.

I am a licensed clinical psychotherapist (LCSW) with extensive experience working with children, adolescents, and adults coping with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, challenging life circumstances, transitions, relationship issues, and trauma. I believe in treating each patient as an individual. I draw from many different treatment modalities in order to help patients better understand themselves and develop skills to cope with anxiety, stress, depression, and other emotional pressures. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment where patients can talk openly and freely without fear of judgment. In this space patients can reflect on their experiences in order to better understand themselves, work towards their goals, and ultimately increase enjoyment of life.

I am passionate about working with adolescents, young adults, and their families/support systems.

In addition to those specialties, I support clients through a wide range of challenges including, depression, stress management, life transitions, and academic stress. I am trained in a variety of evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Exposure with Response Prevention (ERP). I have a particular interest in treating Anxiety Disorders and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder in Adolescents and young adults.

It is normal facing change to experience confusion, anger, anxiety, depression, or self-doubt. From loss to relationship issues, I am passionate about helping young adults navigate complex life transitions. College is a transition for everyone, and you’re not alone if you’re struggling to find yourself during this period. In our work together, I will help you uncover inner strength, clarity, and purpose to find a path forward. I work with a range of issues, specializing in grief, illness, women’s health, cancer, and relationships & attachment. It is my honor to guide people through exploring inner narratives, addressing childhood wounds, transforming limiting beliefs, and strengthening relationships. Therapy with me is relational, collaborative, and relatable. My approach also touches on the mind-body connection, and I have training in ecotherapy. I enjoy helping people find and embrace the intersections of nature, the outdoors, and movement with mental health. Guided by radical acceptance and compassion, I believe therapy is a shared journey of self-discovery. If you are seeking healthier ways to navigate whatever life is throwing at you, you do not have to do this work alone. Please reach out for a free consultation.
