Starting therapy can feel intimidating-but you don't have to go through it alone. I'm here to walk alongside you as we explore your experiences, your story, and the ways they've shaped who you are. This process can be challenging at times, but I aim to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and safe enough to show up as your true self.
As an Asian American therapist and having grown up navigating two different cultures, I value the role that culture and identity play in shaping our experiences, I welcome clients from all backgrounds and aim to create a space where you feel seen, respected, and understood.
I believe that you are the expert of your own story. I'm here to help you in making sense of your experiences, deepening your self-understanding, and navigating challenges with greater clarity and confidence. Building a therapeuti relationship based on trust, respect, and authenticity is the core of my work-and I'm committed to showing up for you.

Hello! I am so happy to introduce myself to you. I have over 20 years of experience working as a therapist. I love being a therapist because I enjoy meeting new people and getting to know their stories. I’m a firm believer in treating the person in front of me, not the diagnosis or code. I don’t believe in seeing someone as their struggle. I help people cope with their symptoms or challenges and to become the best version of themselves. I use many therapeutic frameworks to accomplish this. I never follow one framework only. That shortchanges the opportunities for improvement to me.
I’m a licensed therapist and intuitive healer who helps clients reconnect with themselves and reclaim their peace. My background blends traditional clinical training with holistic practices like reiki energy work, somatic practices and mindfulness, allowing me to meet clients where they are- mind, body, and spirit.
I specialize in supporting people who’ve carried too much for too long — those navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or complex family dynamics. My approach is real, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I don’t believe in quick fixes or surface-level advice; I believe in helping you understand your story, heal old wounds, and move forward feeling grounded, confident, and aligned.
I am a Brooklyn-based Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, specializing in Drama Therapy, who believes in the liberation and empowerment of marginalized communities, especially black women and women of color. I am also an artist whose art concentration lies in playwriting, fiction writing, directing, and performing. My practice is rooted in storytelling, empowerment, embodiment, and somatic awareness.

I am Shari Weiss, PsyD, a licensed clinical psychologist with a decade of experience providing evidence based care. My approach is warm, empathic, and collaborative. I work with individuals and families across the lifespan who are struggling with anxiety, mood, or life transitions and are ready to better understand themselves and feel more in control of their lives.
My goal is to guide clients to improve their interpersonal relationships, overcome life stresses, and feel less depressed and anxious. With 30 years of experience, I view therapy as a partnership where client and therapist work together. If setting goals and having an accountability partner in reaching those goals resonates, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.
Welcome—I’m glad you’re here!
My name is Chaim, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma (C-PTSD), low self-esteem, confidence concerns, and relationship challenges.
My approach combines evidence-based care with warmth, curiosity, and compassion.
As a client, you might consider exploring the experiences and patterns that contribute to your struggles while building practical tools to support emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and meaningful change.
I bring a multicultural perspective to my work and strive to offer an affirming, respectful space for people of diverse cultures, identities, and life experiences. Therapy is tailored to your individual needs, values, strengths, and goals—whether you are seeking support independently or as a couple.
You may be healing from painful experiences, feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, navigating relationship conflict, or hoping to reconnect with your confidence and sense of self. You do not have to face it alone.
My goal is to help you move beyond survival and coping toward greater resilience, self-understanding, and a life that feels more authentic, connected, and fulfilling.
