Find a Therapist

The Gender & Sexuality Therapy Center

For anyone, beginning therapy can be filled with a range of feelings, from fear to excitement to uncertainty. As therapists, we hope to guide, support, empower and be with you during this process of growth, exploration, and self actualization. We want to work with you to realize a life you find fulfilling on your own terms.

The Gender & Sexuality Therapy Center is a New York City based group of psychotherapists providing a wide range of services, including psychotherapy, supervision, workshops, and consultation focusing on gender, sexuality, sex and relationships.

We believe that taking the first step and beginning therapy is nothing short of courageous, is self-caring, and deeply rewarding, and we’re so glad you’re here.

Starting therapy takes courage, which has the potential to transform your life. Therapy provides a unique opportunity to feel connected, heard, and understood by another human who shows up for you emotionally and empathically. All of you is welcome here. I’m a psychotherapist and sex therapist working with individuals, couples and multiple-partner relationships. I’m also the Founder and Director at The Gender & Sexuality Therapy Center, a psychotherapy group focusing on gender, sexuality, sex and relationships in NYC. I have specialized expertise working with: gender, masculinity, sexuality, non-monogamy, kink/BDSM, sexual functioning, sexual anxiety, relationship conflict, infidelity, desire differences and depression.

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.

For men who are used to being in control, anxiety can feel like something to push past rather than address. But ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. It often builds up over time, impacting your focus, relationships, and overall well-being. I help high-achieving men break out of stress and overthinking, work with emotions in a way that feels productive, and regain a sense of confidence and control.

Tara Gilliard

Tara brings a warm, empathetic, and collaborative presence into the therapy room, grounded in evidence-based practice and deep respect for each client’s lived experience.

Her work focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions, with an emphasis on resilience and self-discovery. She integrates clinical training with genuine human connection to help clients create lasting, meaningful change.

Joey Bukai

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.

Ms. Jillian Kaufman

Jillian Kaufman is a clinical social worker with over a decade of experience working with adults and adolescents through a holistic, humanistic, and somatic lens. Her areas of focus include anxiety, men’s mental health, helping professionals, PTSD, self-image, stress, trauma, and healing survivors of sexual violence. As a relatable clinical social worker, advocate, and human being, Jillian believes that clients heal most effectively when treated as a whole person and not as their diagnosis. Her work is driven by a socially-just, intersectional, and trauma-informed perspective.

Are you feeling stuck? Ready to feel more peace? More joy? Ready to take the next step towards stronger relationships, self love, laughing more, and finding your sense of purpose? My intent as a therapist is to become a mirror, reflecting your deepest desires, life purpose, and the patterns that keep you from living your fullest life.
I utilize trauma- informed evidence-based practices that help the therapy move quickly such as EMDR and CBT helping you identify core beliefs and resolve inflexible patterns of thoughts- feelings- and behaviors. I look forward to connecting with you!

Gabriela Tilevitz

I specialize in working with individuals and couples looking to explore issues related to relationships, sex and sexuality. Often times shame, guilt, anxiety and sadness are the core emotions at the center of our distress. Together we can work towards facing some of these negative and uncomfortable feelings in order to lead you towards a path of healing and empowerment. In understanding yourself and your needs better I hope you can begin to feel more confident in making decisions, letting go of the things you may have been holding onto, or feeling more connected to yourself and others.

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.

Mary Ellen Kundrat

You are the expert of your own life, yet somehow you have lost the thread. My work with you will help you find your way back again. Our work together will likely include a variety of approaches that will be determined by your needs at the time. There may be strategies we will learn, concepts to explore and, sometimes, even homework. This is your time to heal, restore and rebuild yourself. I will be your guide. I am currently licensed in New York, South Carolina and Florida and I am completely online.

I offer free consultations so you can decide for yourself if you think we might be a good fit to work together.

Daniel Frazer

I specialize in men’s mental health, focusing on the intersection of OCD, chronic pain/illness, and agoraphobia/panic disorder. My work centers on fostering resilience, exploring masculinity, and helping clients create more meaning in their lives. I strive to support men as they navigate life’s complexities while addressing the unique pressures and expectations they face. Through an authentic, educational, and collaborative approach, I help clients break unhelpful patterns, embrace support, and build fulfilling, authentic lives.

Dr. Simay Gokbayrak

I provide science-informed therapy for men. I am committed to helping you gain clarity about what is a valued life to you and manage the things that are getting in the way of that life you want to live and the person you want to be.

Diego Muñoz

Quite simply, psychotherapy is about conversations. The conversations we have with ourselves and with others. We often try so many different tactics to live happier more fulfilling lives, and we come to realize that it isn’t always enough. A therapeutic conversation is based on an open and genuine collaboration between client and therapist; a relationship built on trust, honesty, and understanding. As the foundation for good therapeutic work, it’s essential to feel comfortable and cared for. I hope to provide this conversation.
