Effective Therapy for women
Helping Women find balance in their lives
are you ready to stop making yourself small for others’ comfort? You can learn to set healthier boundaries around your energy and time, and invest in your own wellness, and without apologizing for it! Holistic Psychotherapy & Wellness Manhattan can help women create a realistic and sustainable vision of success—personally (wife, partner, mom, daughter, friend) and professionally—without subjugating and sacrificing important parts of the self! You have the option to have sessions via phone or Telehealth online via Skype, FaceTime or secure SimplePractice.
Modern women struggle to make time to pursue creative passions and endeavors that would provide much-needed spirit and soul nourishment. You deserve to create the life that you desire. If you find yourself struggling in so many areas, and that's not happening, therapy for women can give you the support to break through blocks and obstacles. Women seek therapy and counseling for many reasons as they face unique psychological and emotional challenges throughout their lifespan. Many women present to the outside world as “together,” yet, on the inside, they struggle. If you find yourself experiencing overwhelm, extreme stress, role changes, anxiety, infertility, postpartum depression or mood issues related to hormonal shifts or menopause, you are not alone. Feeling “undeserving” and “not enough” is a common theme expressed by women in therapy. Overwhelmed with perfectionism and demands, women of all ages frequently wrestle with an internal voice that is harsh, unforgiving and pervasive.
Therapy can help you know your worth in the world, and finally believe that you are enough!
Women are invalidated throughout development, with many negative messages stemming from society and culture. Social media has created an even more toxic environment for women as they strive to keep up. It is an illusion that everyone else is thriving and achieving; you may be measuring yourself against branding and a carefully-curated life that does not actually exist.
Some common Concerns NYC women bring to therapy sessions:
Anxiety and experiencing worry
Depression, feeling down and chronic sadness
Feeling unhappy
Relationship challenges
Dating and attracting the wrong people
Stress and difficulty managing stress
Feeling overwhelmed
Feeling stuck in life
Repeating patterns, habits and behaviors that create distress
Insecurity about self-worth
Pressures related to parenting
Difficult family background
Desire to improve your current relationship
Desire to find and attract the right partner
Unresolved trauma
Sadness over past events and relationships

Feeling successful in life
Many NYC women present to the world as if they are thriving, yet in reality, they suffer greatly. Struggling to feel whole, vital and balanced, is our work together.
Many women would agree that, from the outside, their lives appear to run smoothly, and yet they feel unhappy and unfulfilled. They may not always know what’s wrong, but they feel trapped, stuck and unable to make changes. Women can feel disempowered and trapped in patterns and roles, unable to experience authenticity and autonomy. Women, often caretakers and nurturers, neglect their own “self” needs to a punishing degree, feeling shame for having and expressing needs.
Effective therapy for women should focus on empowerment and overall health and well-being. Working with an emotional health expert can support you to create a healthier work/life balance, learn effective stress management skills and coping strategies, and set boundaries for yourself and others.
Women’s Therapy & Mentoring Sessions can help:
Relationship dissatisfaction, recovering from infidelity and betrayal, blocks to intimacy and trust, healing from break-ups or divorce, divorce transition, dating again
Feeling “not enough” or “unworthy of love”
Fear of abandonment in relationships, losing “self” in relationships and boundary problems
Repeating patterns such as finding “unavailable” partners, co-dependency
Body image issues and concerns, dissociation
Difficulties communicating needs and desires
Overcoming loss, unresolved grief
Trauma resolution
Aging, transitions
Owning shadow aspects of yourself
Repressed anger and rage
Role and identity, career concerns
PCOS, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, autoimmune disorders, thyroid disorders, nutrition deficits that impact mood, hormonal struggles, weight concerns
Post-menopause, perimenopause, post-pregnancy, hormone imbalance
Sexual problems, inability to orgasm, pain during sex, sex drive concerns, sexual compulsivity, sexual fear and aversion, shame related to sexuality, recovering from negative experiences, reclaiming sexuality after abuse, recovering from childhood sexual abuse, assault, violence, harassment, religious and cultural concerns, gender non-conforming, queer, transgender, LGBTQ+, kink, fetish, BDSM, sexual orientation, bisexuality, alternate lifestyle, poly lifestyle, open relationships
How can psychotherapy & wellness Manhattan help You?
Therapy sessions are a confidential space for women to express anything and everything that is a source of stress and distress. Women-focused counseling offers a safe space for you to talk about your real needs and all the places that cause you pain and suffering. Helping you connect to your “true self” does not have to feel threatening to other parts of your life. It can actually enhance other aspects, such as parenting and your relationships. It can also give you the support and courage to release all the areas that no longer serve you.
What gets in your way of having the life you desire?
There is this “part” of you that seems to interfere with your ability to have the life that you desire. You are not alone. We all have an inner “saboteur” that causes setbacks, and even self-destruction. Because this part is unconscious, the saboteur within you frequently runs the show. In an effort to protect you from shame, disappointment and other things, it actually triggers failure before success has a chance. Therapy can help you get to know this part of you, give it a name. Psychotherapy with integrated IFS parts work and EMDR can help you have a better relationship with your inner saboteur, and this process can be transformative for you.
Whatever you want to call your inner saboteur, we are actually talking about a system of coping and adaptation. Therapists who regularly use the IFS model work with these “parts” within each person’s behavioral system, as the parts actively interfere or sabotage the achievement of a more successful and meaningful life. In order to experience success from therapy, our parts need to be effectively identified and managed with curiosity, compassion and care. These parts, the ones that hold experiences like images, thoughts, feelings, fear, and the other parts that were once protective, are now no longer needed to keep you safe.
How do we work with self-sabotage in therapy sessions?
Integrating IFS into therapy sessions can help you work directly with the hidden agenda of the parts, moving you swiftly through the conflict, stuck-ness and gridlock. IFS can also elegantly and seamlessly be integrated with EMDR for super-charged coaching to help “stuck” clients become less frozen in their past. My training in Internal Family Systems or IFS, along with my long history of successfully using EMDR with therapy and coaching, allows me to help you move through these stuck areas, that may have something to do with your past—but we don’t have to linger there for long.
When it comes to intimacy and sex, you deserve to embody your sexuality and enjoy passionate pursuits. Intimacy and vulnerability can be accessed in ways that can be transformative for you life and can generalize to your friendships and romance
These are some common concerns and themes that we can explore together in therapy:
Blocks to intimacy and trust
Co-dependency and losing “self” in relationships
Fear of abandonment in relationships
Body image issues and concerns
Difficulties communicating needs and desires
Role, identity, subjugation of self
Overcoming loss, unresolved grief
Dissociation and numbness
Boundary concerns
Owning shadow aspects of yourself
Repressed anger and rage
Sex drive concerns, inability to orgasm and painful sex
Sexual fear and aversion
Shame related to sexuality, sexual fear and aversion
Career and work/life balance
Generalized anxiety and chronic worry
Depression, postpartum depression, pre-menopause, menopause
Unresolved trauma
Aging and difficult transitions
Family, parenting and co-parenting
Healing from break-ups or divorce
Infidelity and betrayal trauma
Divorce transition and dating again
Relationship dissatisfaction, married and unfulfilled
Repeating patterns such as finding “unavailable” partners
Chronic Fatigue, fibromyalgia, thyroid disease
Feeling whole again after childhood sexual abuse, assault, violence, harassment
Work-Life Balance
Time is a precious commodity in today’s chaotic and demanding society. developing the skills to honor your need for work-life balance is an essential element of psychotherapy.
Finding work-life balance can be a constant struggle, especially for women living and working in New York City. For working professionals and stay-at-home moms, it can be difficult to prioritize self-care and personal needs, goals and desires. Because of the internet, many jobs demand that you are also responsive during your off hours which is an added stressor. With stress-filled careers, commuting and the added demands of friends and family, it’s easy to understand why many women struggle—feeling wired, tired and overwhelmed. I work with women seeking therapy who live and work in the New York City area, offering online therapy or telemedicine.
Mental Health & Hormones
You are deserving of healthy, nourishing and fulfilling relationships, including, your primary relationship with yourself. But change in life is inevitable, and understanding the changes unique to us is key. If you feel that your life feels different because of hormonal transitions, then it’s time to stop suffering and get the latest science on hormones and mental health.
Postpartum Depression
Women who suffer from postpartum depression struggle to express feelings of shame or guilt when they are unable to experience the joys of motherhood. It’s important for a new mom who is struggling with postpartum mood concerns to have a safe and validating environment to gain healing support, in addition to referrals for medication to better ensure healing and well-being. New moms can benefit from learning self-care techniques and coping strategies during this challenging time. Depending on your unique situation, couples counseling is offered so that both of you feel supported as you adjust to your new life with baby.
Perimenopause & Menopause Support
Many women notice hormonal changes in their late 30’s and 40’s, some later, and often, they don’t make the connection between their troubling symptoms and the decline in estrogen. In addition to the physiological changes it induces, many women experience psychological changes during the transition to menopause (perimenopause) and in the years following menopause. Some women have few symptoms through this transition, and experience it as a time of growth and transformation, while others suffer greatly with many symptoms. Talk therapy is beneficial and validating for many women at this stage of life. Therapy can help you address specific challenges that arise, both personally and professionally, as well as develop healthier lifestyle habits and coping strategies. I am able to provide helpful resources to ease the way.

A Dose Of Self -Care & Self-Compassion
Is needed during your most chaotic of times. I can help you develop rituals that nourish your body-mind-spirit as you develop new resources to become fiercely protective of your needs. That’s what good Self-Care is all about.
While I’m a fan of tea and bubble baths, self-care is much more than a spa day, it’s intentional, every day care. It’s care that helps you connect to more grace and compassion for yourself and others. Self-care is any form of emotional, physical and spiritual nourishment that gives you the strength, balance, perspective and energy to be present and move through the difficult times with greater ease. It is also care that allows you to set boundaries, and feel deserving of the boundaries you create for yourself. It’s care that empowers you to be even fiercely protective of your needs at times, and unapologetic at times. Self-care can mean many things, and finding balance between caring and connection with others, and taking care of yourself is integral to feeling well, whole and nourished. When you make self-care a daily practice, even in the midst of challenging circumstances, you will begin to feel more vitality, resilience and personal empowerment.
As a practitioner of all things healthy and holistic, I’m a strong proponent of the mind-body-spirit connection when it comes to optimal mental and personal health. Self-care, including rest, movement and a healthy relationship with just about everything, including food and nutrition, is vitally important to your emotional wellbeing. Did you know that exercise alone is an effective, natural antidepressant that also reduces anxiety and stress-related symptoms? We also know that the nervous system, brain and body needs proper nutrition for robust performance. When the challenges of life through you off course, it’s hard to prioritize taking good care of yourself, and yet this is when you need it most. Knowing that you have control over some aspects of your life is empowering during challenging times. You can make healthy choices for yourself, and also attend to your challenges. I love helping people find a system of self-care that is realistic, sustainable and supports their life and needs.
HOLISTIC PSYCHOTHERAPY & WELLNESS NYC
Philosophy
For nearly twenty years, this holistically-oriented NYC Psychotherapy & Wellness Practice has blended what I’ve found to be the most effective practices in psychology, neurobiology, attachment, alternative practices, nutrition, coaching and mind-body medicine working with individuals and couples. As a holistic psychotherapist, I believe it’s important to address the root cause of emotional and psychological suffering. It’s important to know that we all make the most therapeutic progress in a compassionate and non-judgmental environment. I make every effort to ensure patient comfort and ease. Countless studies have shown that finding the right "fit" with a therapist is more important than the technique that is used. As a trauma-trained therapist I am influenced by humanist and existential philosophy, relational theory, attachment theory, psychoanalytic concepts, mindfulness, and somatic, mind and body psychology. My couple and marriage counseling work is influenced by Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). As neuroscience now shows us, the body and mind are inextricably linked—my 20+ years of experience with mindfulness, yoga therapy, and meditation greatly influence my work as a mental health provider. A Holistic and comprehensive therapy model ensures that you thrive in the many aspects of your life—including your relationship with your self and others. You will enjoy a more satisfying, rewarding, and joyful life, no matter your struggles, challenges, or diagnoses. I enjoy continuing education, and I’ve received extensive training and certification in a range of evidence-based and cutting-edge approaches to offer you this holistic model of care. Together, we work with practices designed to create an environment that supports optimal physical and mental health wellbeing. Lasting change and transformation is possible when given the right tools to thrive.

Transform
If traditional “talk” therapy has not been enough to resolve your distressing symptoms, it might be time to try a different model of care. I’ve trained in many modalities, but I find myself returning to EMDR again and again. EMDR Therapy changed my practice years ago because it works and it changes lives. It is the one treatment method that is consistently powerful and transformative for my patients, especially when other highly-effective therapies such as IFS, CBT and Somatic Experiencing are integrated into sessions. Therapy is highly-individualized, and depending on your unique needs, chosen therapy modalities may include: EMDR, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, CBT, Internal Family Systems, Mindfulness and Somatic Experiencing®. I completed EMDRIA-approved EMDR advanced Levels I & II training and supervision many years ago and have used it in my New York City psychotherapy private practice consistently and with excellent results.
EMDR therapy is highly-effective at getting to the root cause of underlying beliefs and blocks that cause many to not benefit from traditional therapy or life coaching. EMDR treatment can elegantly help you transform surviving into thriving so you can lead a life without disruptive symptoms. Reprocessing difficult, disturbing or traumatic memories with EMDR leads to enhanced resiliency and vitality in the nervous system. EMDR treatment is an extensively researched and evidence-based method to help people recover from distressing life experiences, trauma, anxiety, panic, phobias, accidents, medical trauma and much more. EMDR is not just for trauma, it is also an excellent technique to enhance performance for athletes and creatives, or work and professional endeavors. It is especially helpful for clients who have worked hard in therapy or coaching, and find themselves wrestling with the same obstacles and patterns that initially led them to find a therapist or coach. We learned during the pandemic that EMDR can be offered to many patients virtually. Virtual EMDR is an effective and powerful tool to add to your therapy healing journey, as an adjunct to your existing therapy or as a stand-alone solution. LEARN MORE ABOUT EMDR
Teletherapy
faqs about online therapy in nYC: how does remote therapy/video therapy work?
While the technology for telemedicine has been available for decades, the pandemic made virtual therapy a necessity. Never did we imagine that so many individuals would benefit from online virtual therapy, but they did. Like many NYC therapists, I’ve been conducting virtual sessions for some time now, so I’m quite comfortable working with technology. Teletherapy is not a good fit for every person seeking counseling, and many simply prefer to conduct psychotherapy sessions in-person.
How does Online therapy work?
This New York City holistic psychotherapy and wellness practice understands that busy New Yorkers can’t always take time out of their day or week to commute to NYC therapy suites. Virtual therapy, as well as telephone therapy, is a modern option that has become the preferred way to conduct therapy and counseling for many, especially those who work or travel, couples with young children and different schedules, young adults, college students and expats. Online sessions make therapy easier for individuals struggling with social anxiety, agoraphobia, chronic illness, physical disabilities and those who reside in various parts of New York. After scheduling your online virtual session, I’ll send you a session link from my secure, HIPPA-compliant platform SimplePractice. You click on the link to my online waiting room and I admit you to my private virtual therapy office. It’s up to you to create an emotionally safe space in your home or office for our conversations. All you need is robust access to the internet. You can use your computer, IOS/Android phone, iPad, or any other tablet-enabled device. Most laptops have a built in videocam and mic, which makes it very easy.
What kind of therapy is offered virtually?
Online sessions are treated the same way as face-to-face sessions, using the same evidence-based therapy modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), trauma therapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, somatic psychotherapy, life coaching, wellness coaching and stress management. In fact, we’ve learned that remote EMDR can be just as effective for trauma resolution and other concerns as in-person EMDR. Of course, not everyone or every situation should be treated remotely, therefore, it’s important to reach out to potential therapists to determine if your situation is appropriate for virtual therapy. If you feel hesitant about discussing issues over video, you can even turn your webcam off, so that you can see your therapist but not be seen. Research now demonstrates that therapy sessions conduced by telehealth are just as effective as face to face therapy. Read the research.
Who can benefit from virtual therapy?
Just about anyone can enjoy private, confidential and convenient access to high-quality therapy. The decision to seek therapy with a highly-experienced psychotherapist can help you have healthier relationships, gain new perspectives, reach your goals and remain resilient during stressful and challenging times. Therapy can help you feel less alone with your problems, as well as feel supported as you work to improve your circumstances. Life in New York City offers a unique set of challenges. A fast-paced lifestyle and hectic schedules lead to high levels of stress and little time for rejuvenation and restoration of the nervous system. If you are experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression, loneliness, loss or are struggling with substance use or unresolved trauma PTSD, you are not alone. Holistic Psychotherapy & Wellness Manhattan offers highly-effective, evidence-based counseling and therapy practices, as well as an integrative psychotherapy philosophy that incorporates a range of helpful, healing strategies, individualized to meet your unique needs. Because I am a licensed psychotherapist in New York, I can see you whether you live in the NYC metro area or anywhere in the state. You have many modern options to help you get the therapy you need, including BetterHelp, TalkSpace, and of course, all the licensed psychotherapists and psychologists on Psychology Today who continue to offer high-quality therapy in the US and worldwide.
Using you health insurance benefits to assist with the cost of therapy
Holistic Psychotherapy & Wellness Manhattan is In-Network with BCBS & Aetna, and Out-of-Network with most health insurances. I have also been reimbursed by Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, Emblem, Oxford, United and many more for out-of-network mental health services. Most of my clients are compensated for about 50-100% of my fees. Your insurance will refund a large portion of each session, as long as you have met your Out-of-Network deductible. If you have an Out-of-Network plan and have met your Out-of-Network deductible, your health plan will mail the partial refund in the form of a check to your home within a few weeks after each appointment.
