If you've experienced abuse, assault, or trauma, you know the impact can feel overwhelming, affecting your sense of self, emotional wellbeing, and the relationships in your life. I specialize in supporting individuals healing from sexual, physical, emotional, or spiritual abuse and trauma, helping you rediscover freedom and connection. I also enjoy working with individuals exploring their gender or sexual identity and the LGBTQIA2S+ community, offering a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to process and find joy. With nearly a decade of experience, I'm here to affirm that healing is possible. I use EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and more to support healing from sexual assault/abuse, emotional/physical/spiritual abuse, trauma/PTSD, and relationship challenges. I provide a warm, affirming space for LGBTQIA2S+ folks and those exploring gender or sexual identity. I also offer EMDR Intensives for focused healing. Above all, I believe the therapist-client relationship is the foundation of effective therapy. Together, we'll foster a collaborative dynamic as we work to find an approach that feels right for you. I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation via my profile or my website. I look forward to connecting with you!

I offer a no-pressure, free video call consultation to see if we're a good fit. Please feel free to reach out.

I have over 7 years of experience in the mental health field, working as a behavioral health nurse at Jacobi Medical Center, Nix Hospital, Perimeter Behavioral Health, and as a consultant at King Haven Counseling Group.

Hi there! My name is Reese Minshew, and I work almost entirely with transgender (broadly defined) adults who have had traumatic (broadly defined) experiences. I’m licensed in California, Illinois, and New York, and work via telehealth with people located in any of those states. Clinically, I believe that the reactions we have after experiencing trauma and stress are fundamentally adaptive to the trauma, but can disrupt everyday life. In other words, if you had a difficult experience (including chronic exposure to structural stressors such as anti-trans bias, white supremacy, ableism, etc), you might not be able to eat, sleep, focus, calm down, feel excited, or be in relationships in the way you want. Whatever reaction you’re having was very helpful to you at one time, but if it’s no longer serving you then we can work on that. Most of the time we would do this by talking about what’s going on in your life right now, and working to understand it in the context of your past experiences.

I work with all that are misunderstood. While my specialty is working with autistics and ADHD, due to misdiagnoses in females, adopted youth, LGTBQIA2S+, and BIPOC, I welcome all so that we can discover an affirmative proper assessment for answers and treatment. I specialize in helping children learn practical methods for managing difficult emotions and difficult situations at school as well as adults in the workplace. I help parents learn research-based parenting that is emotionally safe and improves crisis stabilization at home and school, including throughout the circle of life. I include parents in the process of discovering techniques that actually help children, including improving family function and relationships. In addition, I also support active duty and retired veterans and their families, as well as civilian contractors with PTSD and the difficulties navigating a military lifestyle, as well as transitioning back into a civilian lifestyle. In addition, I also specialize in substance use treatment and parent/family support counseling. I also provide support for those that participate with NY’s self-direction and provide complimentary billing to the participant’s FI without the hassle of self-pay.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing supportive psychotherapy to teens, families and young adults living with anxiety, depression and stress.

NPC is a close-knit, depth-psychotherapy group practice, where clients are drawn to the warmth and dynamic expertise of our team. We are staffed by a senior, licensed psychologist, a certified couples and sex therapist, and a certified practitioner of experiential therapy and trauma work. As the founder/lead psychologist, Dr. Jennifer Neuhof, the prior Director of Fordham University’s CPS and NYPSA Div. President, consults with our team regarding all aspects of client care. Our psychotherapists share a depth-psychodynamic conceptual lens with an integrative approach, drawing insights from diverse models based on client needs: Family-systems, trauma and neuroscience-informed, family systems, transpersonal, evidence-based somatic, CBT, and DBT. Collaboratively, we offer outstanding and compassionate care. We recognize that therapy is both science and art. As such, we synthesize scientific knowledge and evidence-based methods with experiential wisdom and intuitive insights. Our own self-awareness, coupled with empathic presence, allows us to deeply connect with our clients and empower them to live the lives they truly desire. Our specializations include all seasons of intimate relationships, family conflict, enmeshment and individuation, prenatal, pregnancy, and parenting concerns, life transitions, trauma therapy following emotional, physical, sexual, narcissistic abuse, or neglect, dissociated states, self-abandonment, overwhelm and anxiety, nervous system regulation, depression, feelings of meaninglessness, self-sabotage, psychosomatic conditions, chronic illness and pain, masking and true self emergence, and honing one’s intuition, creativity, and leadership development. Treating emerging mental health and medical professionals is a great privilege. We approach this work with a keen awareness of the unique stressors; the realities of vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, perception of invulnerability, reputation management, and the radical need for self-care. Insight, we believe, is a powerful tool—not only for personal fulfillment, but also for enhancing patient relationships and health outcomes. Treatment duration, frequency and modality are tailored to our client’s needs.

Hello, I’m Gabrielle Toussaint, a dedicated and compassionate clinician with a deep commitment to destigmatizing mental health and promoting overall wellness. Raised in the vibrant community of the Bronx, NY, and rooted in my Trinidadian heritage, I bring a rich tapestry of cultural understanding to my practice. With a Masters of Science in Clinical and Counseling Psychology from Chestnut Hill College in Pennsylvania, I have honed my skills in helping families, adults, and adolescents navigate a variety of mental health challenges. Whether you're dealing with behavioral concerns, substance use, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or trauma, I am here to provide the support you need. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, Solution Focused (SFBT), Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), and Motivational Interviewing, to help you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life. In our work together, you will find a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, develop coping strategies, and work towards lasting change. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives, and I am passionate about helping you discover your strengths and resilience. Outside of my professional life, I find joy in listening to soca and reggae music and capturing moments through photography. These personal interests enrich my life and bring a sense of balance and creativity to my work. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey to wellness and self-discovery. Let's work together to create a brighter and more fulfilling future.

I’m a good fit for students who get trapped in their head—overthinking everything, replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or feeling like they can’t relax unless everything is “handled.” You might be high-achieving, but constantly stressed, exhausted, or scared of messing up. Sometimes that turns into procrastination, avoidance, or feeling numb. In therapy, we’ll focus on helping you calm the mental noise, handle stress more effectively, and build confidence in your choices—so school and life don’t feel like a constant emergency.
