Affirming Online Therapy NYC:

Online therapy makes getting support more convenient and accessible, allowing you to fit sessions into your life without commuting. I use secure video platforms to provide the same depth of care as in-person therapy, specializing in LGBTQ+ and trauma-informed approaches.

Trauma-informed therapy prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment, recognizing how past experiences shape your emotional world. We don’t just talk about trauma—we build internal resources first, so you can process painful memories without re-traumatization. My approach, especially with LGBTQ+ clients, ensures you feel seen and supported while working through identity-based trauma, anxiety, or past wounds.

If you experience anxiety, depression, flashbacks, or relationship struggles tied to past events, trauma therapy may help. If you feel stuck in old patterns, have difficulty trusting, or notice emotional overwhelm in response to triggers, therapy can support your healing.

LGBTQ+ affirming therapy provides a safe, inclusive and collaborative space to explore identity, heal from rejection or trauma, and build self-acceptance. My approach helps clients navigate discrimination, family or religious rejection, and internalized shame with compassionate, trauma-informed care. We’ll work together to uncover insights and foster self-acceptance.

EMDR helps your brain reprocess traumatic memories, so they lose their emotional intensity. Using bilateral stimulation (BLS)—like eye movements or tapping—EMDR helps you move past feeling stuck, frozen, or overwhelmed by past experiences.

I specialize in using EMDR to address interpersonal trauma, religious trauma, and the stress of navigating life as an LGBTQ+ individual. It’s also a powerful tool for building resilience and strengthening internal resources.

Religious trauma occurs when harmful religious experiences cause psychological distress, shame, or identity struggles. Many LGBTQ+ individuals seek refuge in NYC after facing rejection, control, or fear-based teachings from religious communities.

In therapy, we validate your experiences, process past wounds, and support you in reclaiming your identity—spiritually or otherwise, on your own terms.

For clients interested in spirituality, I provide a space to explore, reclaim, or redefine spiritual beliefs in a way that aligns with their healing. This might involve processing past religious harm, resolving internal conflicts, or finding affirming practices that support your growth. Spirituality in therapy is never imposed—it's guided by your values and what feels meaningful to you.

Living in a world that can feel unwelcoming to LGBTQ+ individuals takes a toll. Chronic stress, internalized shame, and past trauma can show up as anxiety, restlessness, or depression. Therapy helps you understand these patterns, heal past wounds, and build resilience so that you can feel more grounded in who you are.

Substance use is often a response to trauma, stress, or emotional pain. In therapy, we explore the underlying causes, build healthier coping strategies, and support long-term healing. If additional support is needed, I may recommend 12-step or alternative recovery programs alongside our work.
