I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience working with clients in areas of anxiety, depression, cultural identity issues, vocational development, and behavioral challenges. I strive to foster a safe, collaborative, and nonjudgmental experience, empowering clients to navigate toward their goals. I have previous experience working together with clients in an outpatient clinic and community college setting to pursue their goals and needs. I am fluent in English and have conversational fluency in Chinese (Cantonese).

I help clients navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, and difficult life transitions. Often, we struggle without understanding why. I use various strategies to empower you to become your own agent of change. You possess more inner strength and ability than you might believe, and with the right guidance, we can tap into those hidden resources. Therapy can profoundly impact your life, leading to fulfillment, rewarding experiences, and the realization of your goals. I create a safe space for you to explore your emotions, challenges, and self-discovery. I am easy-going, laid-back, and supportive, always attuned to your needs. Outside of therapy, I enjoy playing guitar and spending time outdoors, bringing a relaxed and open vibe into our sessions. Investing in yourself can bring about positive changes you never imagined. Starting therapy might be the best decision you make today, this week, or this year. It can propel you forward towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Embrace this opportunity for growth and transformation!

Welcome! I'm Keeley, the CEO of Refresh Psychotherapy- NYC's only social justice-focused private practice. My team is committed to providing the best care to the best generation of New Yorkers. Navigating adulthood, imposter syndrome, the pressure to perform, as well as the current political climate can be challenging, but I can work with you to feel less overwhelmed, in addition to finding your "purpose." I strive to empower young adults, particularly young women, to be their best selves, live their best lives, and be a compassionate member of society. Outside of the office, I do charity & volunteer work including animal rescue. I'm delighted to work with adults who are ready to gain insight into their behaviors and make positive changes in their lives. Items to focus on may include wellness/health, communication, respect for self and others, anxiety, and stress management. I can work with you to ensure your own accountability for self-care and implementing a healthy lifestyle. Interventions vary depending on your individual needs. I can help resolve issues in a variety of areas including anxiety, OCD, work stress, identity, & body image. I can also assist in navigating a transition into parenthood as well as infertility issues. I also specialize in working with police/first responders and their families.

I provide psychotherapy and contemporary psychoanalysis for adult individuals of all ages, identities, and backgrounds. I use several therapeutic techniques and an integrative approach that is tailored to suit the needs of each individual patient. I believe in the transformative powers of honesty, authenticity and unconditional positive regard. Therapy is ultimately about meaning making. I listen closely to my patients without judgment and without jumping to conclusions. My goal is to understand you on your own terms—free of any rigid diagnoses or other labels. I believe that the heart of this work resides in the therapeutic relationship itself, and to this end, I seek to build bridges of clarity and comfort between us. Our work together will consist of attempting to understand you in a holistic, depth-oriented manner. We will consider how your past might be effecting your present—have you developed patterns in your life that are inhibiting and no longer serve you well? I understand that some people seek out therapy to address a discrete, well-defined issue, while others come out of a more abstract, gnawing sense that something in their life needs to change.

As your therapist, I will help you know yourself in a deeper way. In doing so, you will be better equipped to enact changes in your life that will lead to greater happiness and a sense of well-being. We cannot erase negative past experiences. We can, however, work together to help you to better understand and to respond to these experiences in more constructive ways. Using a variety of therapeutic approaches, I will help you to become more aware of your long standing, negative behavioral patterns which are getting in your way of resolving challenges and of establishing and meeting your goals in life. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, conflicted relationships, work stress and identity issues. As an alternative to therapy, I also offer coaching services for clients working toward specific personal goals in the areas of career/work, self care (e.g. weight loss, improved work-life balance, meditation/mindfulness practices) and relationships. In addition to my 5th Avenue office, I have offices on East 57th St and in Great Neck, Long Island. I also provide therapy online to residents of NY State.

My practice offers psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy to help patients move beyond roadblocks toward personal growth. We see patients across the lifespan and have been privileged to help people work through some of the most personal struggles in their lives. Together, we can address problematic behaviors (e.g., insomnia, anger, procrastination), troubling emotions (e.g., depression, anxiety, anger, fear), maladaptive thought patterns (e.g., rumination, worry, self-criticism), and relationship issues (e.g., work, family, dating). Taking the first step toward approaching your challenges can be scary. Finding a therapist you trust and with whom you feel comfortable is one of the most important factors in helping you to move forward. ​My practice also offers comprehensive psychological assessment services for children, adolescents, and adults. We use evidence-based assessment tools and methods grounded in research to conduct psychodiagnostic, psychoeducational, and fitness for duty/disability evaluations. The results of these evaluations can be used to aid in diagnosis and treatment, facilitate the provision of special education services, support applications for accommodations at school or work, or provide evidence of fitness for employment. ​We offer specialized consultation services, as well.

My experience as a therapist includes working at the NYU Counseling Services for many years. I have a deep understanding of the challenges both undergraduate and graduate students face with the changes, separations and transitions involved in becoming independent adults. It is a time filled with excitement as well as stress and worries about the future. The internal and external pressures, expectations from family and demands of the academic world can feel overwhelming at times. For graduate and doctoral students, there are the stressors of completing programs, dissertations and the challenges of seeking employment. Students may also be struggling with feeling alone, isolated, anxious, depressed, dealing with body image self-esteem and sexuality issues as well as social pressures around alcohol and other substances. Therapy can help in navigating these challenges, offer insight and reduce stress. I am a compassionate, extensively trained and interactive therapist. Together, we can work to develop strategies, address negative patterns of thought and behaviors, manage stress and help you deal with relationships more effectively. I am also trained and certified in clinical hypnosis which can be very useful in managing the physical and psychological symptoms of stress and anxiety including phobias, GI issues such as IBS as well as reducing symptoms of depression while increasing self-confidence and success.
