Hi! I’m Briana, a therapist who loves working with college students. I know this time in your life can feel exciting, overwhelming, confusing, and full of possibility—all at once. Whether you're dealing with stress from classes, relationships, identity questions, or just figuring out who you are and what you want, you're not alone. I've worked on college campuses for years and feel so lucky to be part of this chapter with the students I support. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to make sense of what you're going through. Let’s figure it out together.

You're entering or exiting college, and life feels like a maze; relationships, family, identity, academics, career... it can be a lot. Maybe you find yourself feeling stuck, overthinking everything, or wondering why you feel disconnected in your relationships. You are not alone. I help young adults drop self-limiting beleifs and find a sense of empowerment in their true selves. Whatever you are struggling with, I offer a space to explore unwanted patterns with curiosity (some humor) and no judgment. I believe the client-therapist relationship is the most important component in healing and I strive to be transparent and affirming. Together we can explore how your past is affecting the way you show up in the world now. We will practice tools, strengthen your self-understanding and create trust in your mind and body. As a creative arts therapist of 9 years, I am trained in traditional talk therapy and evidence based art therapy. It is your choice each session to decide which we use to explore your goals. Change can feel scary, and at the same time, often leads to fulfillment. I invite you to reach out so we chat about what you would like to see improve in your life.

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.

Kadijah supports young adults and adults who are seeking a safe space where they can be acknowledged, listened to, and accepted without any judgment. Typically, these folks are competent, accomplished individuals who are held back from achieving their full potential by issues such as anxiety, trauma, or difficulties in relationships. They are looking for a therapist who is empathetic, warm, affirming, and inclusive to guide them on their journey of healing. As your therapist, I will work alongside you to build effective tools for managing day-to-day life stressors, healing from your past trauma, and empowering you to move towards a more fulfilling life.  My goal is to help you let go of fear and self-doubt, be kinder and more accepting of yourself, identify and express your needs, develop healthier boundaries, and feel more connected.

I view therapy as the process of developing a better understanding of thoughts, emotions and patterns. I utilize a person-centered therapy approach to create a warm, non-judgmental atmosphere where you can feel comfortable and safe. Through the journey of self-discovery, your needs and wants from the therapy process may change. This is why I pull from different evidence-based therapy approaches such as CBT and positive psychology to best fit with your needs at the time. I have experience working with a variety of mental health concerns. However, no two people are the same. Together we will work towards your unique goals utilizing the individual strengths you bring. Deciding to begin therapy can be scary. I will help to illuminate the process and ease your concerns. I am currently accepting new clients.

You - feeling overwhelmed, stuck, like the world is on fire and you're supposed to just "cope." You - navigating relationships, friendships, and family, questioning who you are, thinking "what's next?" Sessions with me - a space for you to talk things out, get clarity and confidence, and a better relationship with your self. You show up as you are, and we go from there, without you feeling judged or "therapized" like it's going out of style. (Although that is something I can provide if you really want! We can figure it out as we go, that's kind of the point!) My approach to therapy is relational, which means I believe the trust and connection between therapist and client is paramount to the healing process. I see you as the expert of your life and my role is support and guide you with compassion and curiosity. Together we can explore what's working, what's not, and how you can move forward. I'm especially passionate about supporting women, college students, and LGBTQ+ folks as you navigate the complexities that come with living in today's world. Therapy should be a place of growth, insight, and finding the joy among the hurt. If you're ready to explore and create meaningful change for yourself, I'd love to work with you!
