Utilizing experiential and behavioral approaches, I provide people with a flexible and layered approach to therapy that explores internal conflict, processes painful memories, and creates actionable steps for the future.

As a psychotherapist (LCSW), I support people through a non-pathologizing approach by offering the compassion and connection we all need to heal. I affirm your gender, sexuality, culture, race, neurodiversity, and the backgrounds that blend to make you who you are today.
I utilize a variety of modalities based on the person(s) in front of me. Relational work is embedded within every intervention.
Methods include Internal Family Systems, Somatics, Perinatal and Postpartum Mental Health focused on dads & fatherhood, Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Relational Life Therapy, Brainspotting, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).
I see our sessions as a time to guide you and a place to teach you so that when you leave the office, you will have those skills within yourself. I meet with clients virtually weekly and bi-weekly in California and New York. I am an out-of provider and can provide superbills if you are interested in submitting them for reimbursement. We also have therapists in training—graduate mental health interns—who provide therapy to expand access.
Additionally, I provide clinical consultation, supervision, and training for those interested in learning additional skills outside of a psychotherapy relationship. Please let me know in your message if this is of interest.

In my 20+ years of experience, I believe in holistic, healing therapy, where there is no “typical treatment” for a “typical person.” So instead, I integrate a strength-based approach, incorporating Trauma-Focused CBT, Mindfulness Training, and Somatic Experiencing, all while incorporating my multicultural, international lens.
I have an extensive trauma therapy background, including sexual trauma and assault and psychological first aid. My specialties include mentoring through life transitions, personal growth, self-esteem, men’s mental health, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Most importantly, I have dedicated my profession to cultivating a mindful, intentional life.

Mr. Charles Eisenberg

I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with insight oriented psychotherapy. I often assign work for you to do in-between sessions. I sometimes utilize specific exercises to elict emotions and imagery.

Dr. Peter Haugen
Dr. Peter Haugen
In my experience, few individuals come to therapy feeling that “typical” treatment categories adequately capture their difficulties, hopes, and fears.
Instead, the individuals I work with sometimes describe feeling preoccupied by aspects of important relationships, blocked in their ability to express themselves authentically, or lacking self-confidence. Initially, some may even have trouble finding the right words to describe the changes they’d like to make. Finding these words—the right words—to describe what’s wrong and what relief would look like is a central part of treatment.

I HELP MILLENNIAL AND GEN X PROFESSIONALS CONSCIOUSLY GET WHAT THEY WANT (IN LIFE AND RELATIONSHIPS). Life is overwhelming. Between work, relationships, and technology calling for your attention at every moment, it’s extremely difficult to remain calm and grounded. We can lose our sense of purpose and passion.
Unlike other therapists who merely sit and listen, I take an active and engaged approach. You may find yourself in a guided meditation or a role-play exercise. There may be optional homework assignments. We’ll tune into exactly what you need. I’m here to support you to find your unique, confident voice.

Monica Gavilanes

I have a blended approach with my clients pulling from psychoanalytic, trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral, DBT, and somatic modalities. Additionally, I take a client-centered approach ensuring that I am conceptualizing the client holistically and learning what styles would benefit them best while holding the therapeutic relationship in high regard. I work with adult 18+ and teens and focus on issues of childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, relationship issues, substance abuse, lack of motivation, and self-esteem.

Many of my clients feel uncomfortable or unsatisfied going through their daily lives, though they aren’t quite sure why. This generally manifests into anxiety or depression, feeling disconnected from themselves and others, and not being able to make change. I specialize in helping clients chart a course for enlightenment and self-improvement through conversations about past and current ways of navigating the world , along with building up psychological tools to handle life’s stressors.
