LMFT

I offer a unique psychotherapy experience to improve mental health, bring harmony to your relationships, and increase your overall sense of well-being. I believe we each hold the keys to our own healing and counseling to be a process to help you find them. I am experienced working with adults, kids, teens, families, and couples.

I emphasize listening and honoring each person’s unique experiences to create a supportive, affirming environment. My background within the LGBTQIA+ community informs my commitment to fostering inclusivity and understanding. Drawing on evidence-based practices such as Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we will work collaboratively to develop a plan that fits your needs.

Hi I’m Elsa (she, they), a NYC clinical psychologist specializing in life transitions, identity, and spirituality (meaning, purpose, and connection). I’m also passionate about serving communities that have historically experienced barriers to whole-person care including LGBTQ+, BIPOC, Asian American, and neurodivergent (gifted, 2e, autistic, highly sensitive) teens, adults, partners, and families of all kinds. My practice integrates cultural diversity, health psychology, and identity development in exploring meaning, skills enhancement, and values based living. I also believe that healing must be contextualized by systemic factors that impact each person’s unique struggles and strengths.

I help high-functioning adults—especially perfectionists, entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals—quiet the noise, clarify their needs, and build a more sustainable way to live. Many of my clients feel like they’re doing everything “right” on paper, but still struggle with anxiety, burnout, relationship uncertainty, or self-doubt. You might be the one everyone relies on, but you feel unsure of your own direction. My style is collaborative, warm, and insight-oriented—I’m here to help you get honest with yourself without spiraling into self-criticism. Whether you're navigating a major life shift or finally giving yourself space to reflect, therapy can help you reconnect with your values, calm your nervous system, and make decisions you actually trust.

I specialize in working with young adults struggling with anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and substance use. When we are anxious and overwhelmed, it can cause us to feel disconnected from others. Feeling stuck and stressed can trigger self-doubt and poor decision-making, and this chips away at our self-esteem. Personal challenges have taught me that tough times can be an opportunity to gain wisdom and resiliency. I can help you identify the core issues that are negatively impacting your life and deterring you from enjoying your life and achieving your goals. I am an ‘active’ therapist, who makes suggestions and offers guidance, as opposed to just asking “how does that make you feel”? I forge close relationships with clients, who appreciate my warmth, openness and good energy. I provide clients a safe, judgement-free space, where they feel heard, supported and respected. Using holistic and science-based methods, I teach clients solution-focused strategies that they implement in their daily life and for future bumps in the road. With my help, clients learn to step into their personal power. This increases their self-confidence, optimism, and self-awareness. If you are ready to step into your power, I can help you get there.

I am a licensed mental health counselor providing virtual therapy services through Willow Behavioral Health. Dedicated to empowering her clients, I tailor my approach to your unique needs. Through compassionate guidance, I strive to create a supportive space for healing and self-discovery.

You may be at a threshold, where the old ways of coping—over-functioning, perfectionism, people-pleasing—no longer feel sustainable. You’re longing for more authenticity, more ease, more connection to yourself and your truth. I work with those who feel called to go deeper—who sense their symptoms are not just problems to solve, but invitations into a more authentic, meaningful way of being.

Welcome! Do you currently struggle with any of the following: anxiety; indecisiveness; low self-esteem; deep, sometimes inexplicable feelings of guilt; confusion around trusting your "gut;" a heavy focus on wanting to make others like you; feeling disconnected from others; a nagging feeling you’re doing something wrong or there may be something wrong with you? The good news is, these are not inherent traits people are born with and you are not bound to eternally struggle with these things! This therapy will give you the opportunity to uncover the root causes of these struggles in order to make changes in the here-and-now.

It’s never been more important to learn how to self-regulate: to settle yourself down when you’re freaked out, to get yourself engaged when you’ve frozen. To cultivate your sense of coherence and capacity. I can help you do that in our sessions, and teach you how to get there yourself, when you’re facing these challenges on your own. And as so much of healing comes from relationships, both personal and in a professional healing ones, it is essential to build these connections. When we’re stuck in a threat response, it’s hard to reach out and feel others’ support. There are many challenges we are currently facing, and we don’t have to do it alone. Getting your system regulated and calm can help you better access the support that is here. Incorporating the body into the conversation of healing is an essential part of developing vitality and joy. The focus of my practice is to work directly with the physiology and with energetic systems, building health and slowly renegotiating how life challenges were managed. The modalities I use to guide this work are Somatic Experiencing, Polarity Therapy, Inner Relationship Focusing, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, AEDP, Reiki and Realization Process, supported by psychotherapy.
