Are you unmotivated by everyday tasks and struggle to find where you belong in your social group? When you look in the mirror, do negative thoughts such as “I’m not enough” or “I feel hopeless” roam inside your brain? Do you find yourself freezing up in social situations, wishing you knew how to react? In a society plagued by institutional racism, gender inequalities, and generational differences, it is common to feel disheartened, anxious, and angry at ourselves and the world around us. By reaching out and prioritizing self-care, we can create a safe space to process difficult emotions and learn to manage your reactions.

Being a woman from a multicultural background, I understand the complexities of navigating multiple identities including race, culture, religion, gender, sexuality, class, and ability. With a unique blend of Caribbean and Middle Eastern heritage, my approach to counseling is enriched by the diverse tapestry of experiences that shape individuals. Together we will delve into how your unique intersectionality shapes your world. My goal is to provide a safe, genuine, and non-judgmental space for your personal growth and healing. I received a B.S. in Psychology at Northeastern University and M.A. in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness at NYU. I further honed my skills through rigorous training. I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds, ages, and diagnoses experiencing issues around trauma, race, gender, sexuality, depression, anxiety, and more. I tailor my approach to suit the unique needs of each client. By integrating techniques such as CBT, trauma-informed therapy, and psychodynamic therapy, I aim to empower clients in their journey toward self-discovery and resilience. Through exploring patterns, feelings, and history we will work together to design strategies to improve your overall wellbeing.

Do you find yourself feeling stuck or with the sense that you are just going through the motions and simply existing? I can help guide you to participate more fully in life and reach your maximum potential. We will work collaboratively to increase self-awareness, identify recurring patterns, and minimize maladaptive behaviors through the use of coping skills and resources at hand. With insight, confidence and tools in hand, you will be better equipped to effectively navigate through various road bumps in life and stop getting in your own way. I'm very collaborative, directive and strengths-based in my work with clients. I work with adults, couples and families to address life challenges related to mood & personality disorders, addiction & dependency-based issues, building positive relationships and cultivating self-worth. I have an eclectic approach, utilizing several different modalities to suit each client's needs, including evidence-based practices where applicable. It is common for ambivalence to be involved when facing any kind of life decision or transition. A CBT, DBT and motivational interviewing approach can allow me to meet a client where they are at and help each individual gage their own level of readiness for change. You've taken a huge step just by seeking out therapy. Now let's go on this journey together!

PSYCHOTHERAPY SERVICES: Rebecca’s clinical focus is on helping adult female identified dancers develop healthy relationships with their bodies and food. She guides clients in reconnecting with their bodies, often using the process of “embodiment,” a multilayered awareness of your body and how you connect to or relate to the world around you. Through the holistic practices of mind- body awareness, Rebecca educates her clients on how their emotions may sometimes be reflected through physical symptoms, often called psychosomatic symptoms. Working with Rebecca, clients also receive guidance on eating in a self attuned way to manage disordered eating behaviors. She works from the Health at Every Size (HAES) perspective and helps clients understand the internal and external factors that contribute to disordered eating, body image issues and problems with self esteem. Dancers are always on display, whether taking recreational classes at the studio or at rehearsal and especially during performances. Outside of the dance world, there’s the everyday societal expectations of how our bodies should be. Rebecca is familiar with the unique challenges dancers face on and off stage. PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT COACHING FOR PERFORMING ARTISTS: Contact Rebecca for more information.

My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, gain insights, and work toward meaningful change. I am committed to providing a compassionate and empowering space for healing, and my practice is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I prioritize your sense of safety, control, and trust at every step of our therapeutic process. I utilize a blend of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as CBT, CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy), mindfulness practices, and somatic therapies to help you process painful memories and reduce distressing symptoms.

For 30+ years, I've helped adults recover from complex trauma, developmental and attachment trauma, narcissistic and psychopathic abuse, addictive disorders, emotional neglect and chronic relationship difficulties. My clients are insightful, motivated individuals struggling with codependency, dissociation, or the lasting effects of childhood trauma. Through trauma-informed psychodynamic therapy we identify and transform the survival patterns that once protected you but now limit your life. Healing fosters regulation and safety, allowing the parts of yourself exiled by fear, neglect, betrayal, and chronic adaptation to be reclaimed. I integrate psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-informed therapy with attachment theory, somatic awareness, neuroscience, mindfulness, and spiritual exploration. My goal is not simply symptom relief, but helping you create a cohesive, authentic life aligned with your deepest values and fullest potential. Therapy is a collaborative process grounded in curiosity, compassion and respect. Together we excavate the deeper origins of your emotional suffering while developing practical tools for nervous system regulation, healthier relationships, and lasting change. Even when trauma has shaped your life new patterns of safety, connection, and vitality can emerge.

I help my clients feel accepted, understood, and supported so they can explore and organize their experiences and create new ways of coping. I work with survivors of trauma and with people who are grieving a loss, whether a partner, a parent, or, a pet. Many of my clients are struggling with depression or anxiety or are having trouble in their work l, school, or in their relationships. I help people who have experienced trauma and loss find a way to cope with the present and make meaning of the past. I help people make changes and reach their goals with patience, encouragement and humor.
