Hi! I’m Briana. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Brooklyn, NY. I work primarily with adults and young adults navigating life transitions, managing stress, and coping with anxiety and depression.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Doctor of Social Work (DSW) degree specializing in trauma-informed care and holistic emotional wellness. With over fifteen years of experience in medical and mental health settings, I have worked with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My counseling approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic practices with Christian principles to support healing of the mind, body, and spirit. I am passionate about creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow in both emotional wellness and spiritual strength. My goal is to help clients develop practical coping strategies, deepen their faith, and move toward lasting healing, purpose, and restoration.
Hi! My name is Dr. Katherine Alvarez and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in helping individuals navigate challenges related to anxiety, relationship stress, social difficulties, OCD, life transitions, graduate student stress, self-esteem, cultural and racial identity. I also offer support for parents seeking guidance on how to best support their children with learning disorders, ADHD, anxiety, and behavioral difficulties.
I received my Master’s in Education and my Doctorate in combined School-Clinical Psychology from Pace University. My training spans a variety of public and private institutions across New York and California, including therapeutic day school programs, community mental health clinics, and foster care agencies. This diverse background has deeply shaped my clinical perspective and inspired my special interest in exploring intergenerational trauma and how it impacts the way we experience the world. I am passionate about creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your identity and its influence on your journey of self-understanding. Additionally, I have completed specialized training in ERP for treating OCD and anxiety disorders, and I am deeply committed to providing education on and de-stigmatizing OCD.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 10 years experience. I work with adults navigating the stress and uncertainty that life can bring. I believe people do best when they feel supported, heard, and not alone in what they are carrying. My focus is helping clients better understand themselves and build confidence in how they move through life.
Hi, I'm Lenah, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. I draw from CBT, psychodynamic, and person-centered approaches to help clients gain insight, build coping skills, and create meaningful change. I strive to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.
I earned my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2000. I have served teenagers the past 20 years inpatient and outpatient. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults. I enjoy working with adults too. I truly love the work I do!
I work with BIPOC adult professionals who often feel overwhelmed by ADHD, anxiety, trauma, and burnout. Many of my clients are navigating competing responsibilities while managing stress, relational conflicts, and the complexities of trauma. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish to create a supportive space for diverse backgrounds. My focus is on helping you build practical, sustainable strategies for lasting change.
Hi there! I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s transitions, stress, and mental health challenges.
My practice blends precise medical management with supportive, evidence-based therapy to look at you as a whole person, not just a list of symptoms. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and ADHD, with a particular focus on young adults and professionals navigating career, academic, or personal life changes.
I am a triple board‐certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM), and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). This unique combination allows me to care for individuals across the entire lifespan, with a deep understanding of how physical health, hormones, trauma, environment, and life transitions shape mental well‐being.
My approach is collaborative, integrative, and rooted in both conventional psychiatry and functional medicine principles. I work to understand the root causes of symptoms—not just treat them—by considering biological, psychological, hormonal, nutritional, and environmental factors. Treatment plans may include medication management, lifestyle strategies, mind‐body approaches, and supportive therapy.
My style is warm, patient‐centered, and grounded in partnership. We build your plan together, ensuring it is evidence‐based, individualized, and flexible as you grow. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, or complex mind‐body concerns, my goal is to meet you where you are and support you toward lasting emotional and physical wellness.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in treating adolescents and young adults with a variety of presenting problems including OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and behavioral concerns.
