Great to meet you!

My name is Dr. Elakman, and I'm a NY-licensed Clinical Psychologist. My broad and varied clinical experience has led me to be well-equipped to address a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, OCD, insomnia, relationship conflict, stress, and trauma.

My approach to therapy

I use an integrative approach to help you develop insight, increase resilience, and discover meaning and purpose. Throughout therapy, I consider your unique life experiences and intersecting identities. My approach is sex-positive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and anti-racist. I strive to incorporate ideas about identity development and the influence of political and social forces to deepen your self-exploration in therapy.

What you can expect from me

My ambition is to support you in achieving your therapy goals. If you feel we may be a good fit, I encourage you to reach out.
