Therapists in Brooklyn, NY

Especially for some of the most successful among us, we can hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance in all areas. Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. For so many, an achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work with my clients to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined. My approach is solution-focused and uses elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy to identify and build on your strengths. As a Substance Abuse Specialist, I help individuals including young adults transform their relationships with substances and behaviors that feel out of control. Therapy should be a process that makes us feel free to be fully ourselves. To heal and enliven us to be authentically, beautifully, and powerfully exactly who we are, unbound by what has in the past, held us back. Let's work together to find strength, meaning, healing, and freedom so you can define your own path. It's time to be free and come alive again. Let’s do it together.

I am a clinical psychologist who works with high-achieving individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, cross-cultural adjustment, and difficult family histories. I take a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach, helping adolescents and adults deepen self-understanding, build meaningful relationships, and move toward a life aligned with their values. I hold a PsyD from Yeshiva University and have extensive training across medical, community, school, and foster care settings. I also supervise doctoral trainees at The Graduate Center, CUNY, and have offered workshops, talks, and leadership contributions through professional organizations. In addition to clinical work, I founded Dr. Vivi Coaching to support international students, and I authored The Power of Being Different, a chapter on navigating graduate school as an international student.

My goal is to establish a collaborative relationship with the client directed toward wholeness and their personal growth and transformation. I strive to move away from the stigma and labeling that traditional abnormal psychology offers and focus on my client's strengths and mutually developed goals to help them reach their highest potential. Body-mind-spirit integration is my personal life foundation, and it is the core of my therapeutic approach. I provide individual and couples therapy for the issues of depression, anxiety, self-esteem, communication issues, relationship difficulties, life transitions, coping with stress, chronic illness, cancer, bereavement counseling, caregiver support, maternal mental health, and many more. I integrate my unique specialty as a Certified MARI (Mandala Assessment Research Instrument) Practitioner, one of the very few fully certified in the US, to offer a comprehensive psychological assessment and turn this modality into a life-changing experience. I’m an eclectic therapist, combining different approaches that are geared toward individual goals of each client and ultimately lead to their own path of healing and overall wellness.

I help women and men overcome anxiety, depression, loss, and relational difficulties. I specialize in empowering women by developing their self-worth and confidence through individual therapy, group therapy, and specialized retreats. My approach is an integration of psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral modalities, which means I will explore the way you experienced the world from birth until present in order to identify habits and behaviors that have become roadblocks to living in alignment with the person you want to be. I utilize LifeMaps, a collaborative treatment plan where you can track progress and see your therapy notes. I am a Licensed Psychologist and the CEO of Create Outcomes and have over 20 years of experience helping people of all ages from a variety of backgrounds. I have also supervised other clinicians for over 10 years. I co-host What It Takes To Heal, a podcast that aims to demystify the therapeutic process and details what successful therapy looks like. I've served as a director in a variety of clinical settings, including inpatient facilities, outpatient clinics, non-profit organizations, and in juvenile justice programs. The C.R.E.A.T.E. Outcomes model was informed by this work as a way to provide care that is self aware and aligned with the client's values, while also systematically tracking progress.

I take a collaborative approach to therapy that centers on helping you understand your experience in the “here and now” and getting in touch with your feelings. My therapeutic style is patient, warm, supportive, and empowering. I strive to create an environment where you feel comfortable sharing anything on your mind while processing your emotions. I am a strong believer that speaking on and exploring concerns allows for healing and growth. I am excited to start working with you!

I've worked in various roles throughout my life. I started as a performing artist. I grew and learned a lot from that experience -- as I have from all of my roles -- but wanted to explore other interests. That included corporate management and leadership roles for 18+ years and going to graduate school. Ultimately I've landed on my feet in a field that truly fits my skills, my passion and what feels like a calling. I believe my varied background gives me an edge in understanding a lot of different life paths. I offer that to my patients.
