Find a Therapist

Dr. Joanne Heith

Welcome. I’m an individual, couples and group therapist, offering sessions in person in downtown Brooklyn, NY. I offer 30 years of experience in the field. I’m also a professor of Exercise Science and Psychology.

I would like to encourage men to consider interpersonal group therapy. Men need and want what we all want, that is to feel connected. No tools to learn, handbooks to read, no feelings to ‘manage’ or ‘regulate’. Thoughts and feelings are not bad or good, they provide information about dynamics, current and past. Consultations regarding membership in this diverse, inclusive, in person, Downtown Brooklyn group, is free of charge.

Real Talk Therapy

Finding the right therapist can feel daunting because it is crucial to find a good comfortable fit. Knowing this, we aim to create a strong therapeutic relationship with an emphasis on trust and acceptance. Our therapists bring unique interests, experience, and advanced training to support you in figuring out what’s working and what’s next for your life.

These are unusual and uncertain times. World events can leave us feeling powerless. Now more than ever connection is critical. Let’s join together and embrace our shared human experience. We hope that amidst the pain, confusion, and despair, our counselors can help you feel more awake and alive.

Evan Moore

As the world becomes more complicated day by day, maintaining presence and a sense of self is more important than ever. If you are looking to find renewed purpose in life and stronger connections with the loved ones in your life, schedule a phone consult with me.

Jeremy Ortman

My approach to counseling is informed by multiple schools of thought including Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Relational Psychotherapy. Integrating these philosophies enhances my ability to adapt to the unique needs of each individual, family, or group that I work with. My style is interactive, practical, and infused with sensitivity and a sense of humor.

Werking

At Werking, we believe men’s mental health deserves the same attention as physical health. Too often, men are told to “push through” or stay silent, but real strength comes from doing the work of healing. Our approach combines therapy and medication management to help men build resilience, balance, and confidence.

We know it takes effort to face challenges head-on, and we’re here to meet you where you are, walk beside you, and put in the work with you. Because when you show up for yourself, therapy truly starts Werking

Matthew Willner

I’m a licensed therapist in New York specializing in men’s mental health, with advanced training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) — an approach that helps you understand the different parts of yourself that drive your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I work with men navigating depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions, using a collaborative, non-judgmental approach that meets you where you are.

Taking the first step can often be the hardest, so I offer no-cost consultation calls to discuss what therapy together can look like.

Dr. Kelly Wise

Sex, sexuality, and intimacy are concepts that we spend a lot of time pondering, but have few places or people in our lives where these topics are acceptable to bring up. The truth is everyone has sexual and intimacy concerns, but society doesn’t help us sort this stuff out. Messages about sex are everywhere in advertising, but real honest sex education is lacking. This leaves us to feel that we are isolated and alone. This can cause inner turmoil for people, and I want to create a safe environment where people can discuss their desires, fears, dreams, and beliefs about themselves. I believe that personal growth and self reflection come from support, guidance, and nurturance.

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.

Elias Moor

I approach therapy from the perspective that we have the capacity to find answers within ourselves and evolve as people. I work with individuals in a collaborative, strengths-based, emergent process. Together, let’s identify and challenge disruptive thoughts, behaviors, and feelings in a safe, confidential, supportive environment.

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.

Julian Cabezas

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.

Marc Diener

You have a lot of choices in selecting a therapist and psychologist. What’s different about me and my practice? (1) You’re getting an expert: I have a PhD in Clinical Psychology, I completed advanced training in my postdoctoral fellowship, and I trained at prestigious institutions. (2) I am an internationally recognized scholar in psychotherapy research, personality assessment, and psychotherapy integration. (3) I have a number of specialty areas in my practice, including therapy for substance abuse, depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties, as well as testing for Learning Disorders, ADHD, personality assessment, and comprehensive diagnostic evaluations.

Christopher Lashomb

My practice is deeply empathetic and intuitive, utilizes unique life experience and is rooted in the psychodynamic and attachment theory modalities. I also apply trauma-informed care, CBT, and other evidence-based practices, which allows clients to see real and actual positive changes in their lives. For me, process and progress go hand in hand.

Aaron Kogel Smucker

I specialize in trauma and working with people who are impacted by stress, depression, anxiety, addiction, isolation, control issues, relationship issues, abusive relationships, anger management issues, and internalized oppression. If your spirituality is important to you, I’m trained and experienced incorporating people’s spiritual experiences and beliefs.

I will tailor our sessions to who you are and what you need so that our time together encourages personal growth, healing, and positive changes that ripple out across your life. If you are interested in learning more or are ready to make an appointment, then I encourage you to reach out.
