Override Hero Title

Hi, I’m Amanda! I work with individuals who are motivated to enhance their relationships-both with themselves and others.

We could be a good fit if you’re struggling with anxiety or overthinking, relationship or dating stress, people-pleasing and boundaries, body image concerns, OCD, or a life transition that has left you feeling stuck or unsure of what comes next.

I work with individual clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, challenges with mood regulation, perfectionism and compulsive thoughts and behaviors.

I am, in addition to being a therapist, an adjunct law professor and a practicing lawyer. I have a particular interest in working with professionals who are challenged by stress and career issues that impact their professional development and their personal relationships.

I work with individuals curious about how their past shapes their present. My clients seek to explore their past, present, and future to better understand themselves and their patterns. I provide a warm, empathetic environment where your curiosities and needs are explored with care. Together, we’ll identify your strengths and values to help you live a more purposeful and fulfilling life.

Through an individualized therapeutic approach, I explore the unconscious motivations that prevent clients from reaching their goals. I practice cognitive and behavioral therapy and can assist clients with depression, anxiety, trauma, career, relationship and behavioral issues. Life experience and maturity enable me to help clients pursue their journey to personal and professional fulfillment.

Hi! My name is Nykke. I take an eclectic approach to therapy and meet you where you are. I strive to get you into a better place; emotionally, physically and mentally.

I obtained my MSW at Hunter College in NY. I am licensed in both New York and DC. My clinical training consists of extensive experience with children, teens, families and young adults in the Greater New York City area. I treat clients experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, interpersonal problems and behavioral problems.

With a caring and nonjudgmental approach, I work with clients to help them achieve the deep satisfaction and joy missing from their lives. Many circumstances have brought you to the point where anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or frustration have made it difficult for you to live your best life. Together we embark on a journey that helps you to better understand yourself and then implement changes so that you are in charge again.

I also have extensive experience working with children, teens, and families. I can help bring the joy back to parenting your child (whether they are struggling with ADHD, OCD, school phobia or are on the spectrum) we can work together so that you feel empowered to provide the best support necessary

I also offer teletherapy sessions.

• 24 Years in Practice
• MSW – Fordham University 1997-1999
• BS Psychology – Fordham University 1993 – 1997

I have been coaching clients in the New York area for the past 24 years as they make positive, life-altering changes via individual, and couples counseling. Through carefully guided exploration, my clients uncover behavioral patterns that keep them from the happiness they desire by learning strategies for managing stress, working through loss, creating loving, productive relationships.

Psychotherapy provides a space to achieve personal growth and navigate challenges within a trusting, supportive relationship with a trained expert. As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in helping people with a variety of problems, including those struggling with mood, emotion regulation, trauma, identity, relationships, academic/professional issues, body image, and eating disorders. Together, we identify and work toward goals while seeking deeper understanding into their behaviors and problems.

I am trained in multiple treatment modalities, including psychodynamic, relational, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavior, and systemic family therapies. My work is highly influenced by a multicultural approach, and I work with each individual to develop a tailor-made, integrative treatment to address his or her needs.

Personal growth is a lifelong process and for many, psychotherapy can be an incredibly fulfilling step in the journey. My goal is to provide a warm and safe environment that is fruitful to deep and long-lasting change. See my website for more information on my practice and areas of specialization, and call or email me to set up an initial consultation.

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is essential-the fit between us must work- I use a psychodynamic approach; helping clients learn more about themselves to understand what gets in the way of leading a meaningful life in their intimate, family relationships and in their career.

I have been practicing for over 30 years. I teach and supervise in an advanced training program for licensed mental health practitioners that I also help run.

A Social Worker and a Therapist that cares about her patient's wellbeing. Have been treating patients both outpatient and in my private practice for depression, anxiety, family-related issues, and occupational issues.
