Core Values
Identity
We are members of the communities we serve. Our work is informed by our clinical training, as well as, our own identities and lived experiences.
Liberation
Consent and self determination are foundational in our therapy. We respect the rights of all living beings, and work to enhance the freedom, safety, and ability for your authentic self expression, peace, and joy—especially to those who have experienced oppression and marginalization.
Radical Warmth
The care we have for our clients runs deep. While working with your therapist, you will be treated with compassion and empathy, wholly listened to, and experience a warm and welcoming environment.
Our Team
I supervise the therapists listed here, meaning that they follow my practice model and have access to my expertise, experience, and guidance. I curate the colleagues I work with to reflect my practice ethics, and many of the colleagues on my team are personally connected to the communities we work with.
I’m a queer social worker with a background in creative and movement practices. I bring a warm and empathetic approach to my work as a therapist. My practice is relational and humanistic, ensuring that our work together is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. I am dedicated to providing an LGBTQ+-affirming and anti-oppressive space, where all aspects of your identity are welcomed and celebrated.
My approach to therapy is rooted in the notion that identity is an experience continuously in
process. Drawing from neuroscience, trauma theory, and a range of both psychodynamic
and behavioral therapy techniques, my goals as a therapist are to work collaboratively with
individuals to explore the ways in which their lived experience has shaped their present
realities.

Hi, my name’s Nicholas (he/they), and I’m a Latinx, Middle Eastern, Jewish, and queer psychotherapist in NYC. My multicultural upbringing, experiences with immigration, and growing up in a low-income household have not only inspired me to help people who are marginalized because of how they identify, but also those who experience systematic violence.

Hello ! My name is Isabella (they/she) and I am a gender non-conforming multicultural practitioner. I bring a compassionate and curious presence to my sessions which help me get a better understanding of you as an individual. I am a close ally with the kink and sex worker community and identify as a member of the LGBTQ.
Hi there! My name is Richard (they/them) and I am a Non-binary Filipinx Psychotherapist based in New York City. Growing up as a queer, low-income, first-generation college student with immigrant parents, I draw on my experiences to provide social justice-informed trauma therapy.
I believe in therapy as a way to understand our pasts and to move forward in the present. As a queer transplant to NYC, a former professional classical vocalist, and a certified yoga teacher, I also believe therapy can be a helpful tool in navigating transitions, staying rooted, and expressing our creative selves.

Hi there :) Carter (they/he) here! I’m a white, queer, trans masc, non-binary human. My queer and trans identities are deeply rooted in how I approach being a social worker/therapist. I view this work as a collaboration: you are the expert in your own life and my job as a therapist is to listen, be a witness to your journey and create (as much) safety as possible.
