Cultivating a diverse healing practice in the city that never sleeps

VNC Therapy New York is a private psychotherapy and coaching practice that affirms and empowers historically marginalized communities; placing emphasis on fostering healing spaces for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ identities. 

 

With over 7 years of counseling experience, I bring a unique clinical lens into therapy- one that is rooted in a queer, sex-positive, multicultural and anti-oppressive identity.  That means you can feel comfortable bringing all of yourself to session without having to worry about compartmentalizing aspects of who you are. You can expect a therapist who has the capacity to hold multiple truths, respect your beliefs, and challenge patterns of behavior in a supportive way that facilitates lasting, positive change. There is no quick fix here, and our sessions will often be weaving through the tapestry of your life at a pace that feels comfortable to you. 

I do not work in network with any insurances but can provide a superbill for your reimbursement each session. The therapy fee is $300 for a 45-minute session, and session packages featuring modest discounts are available for folx with fluctuating income streams. Some areas of focus include:

  • exploring third culture identity, boundary-setting in BDSM/kink spacespleasure as a gender expansive human

  • navigating adult child-of-immigrant wounds, capitalism, healthcare and living in NY, queer dating

  • improving low self-esteem, relationship with mind-altering substances, holistic health and wellness

  • processing  complex trauma, intergenerational family of origin conflicts,  workplace discrimination

  • moving through guilt, shame, loneliness, fear of failure or inadequacy, grief and loss, life transitions, performance anxiety

  • living out loud and authentically in ways you may have never thought possible

What Can You Expect in Therapy?

You can expect to feel surprised at how comfortable you feel in our sessions.

You can expect to laugh, cry, and connect with many other emotions you may not have access to right now. 

You can expect me to hold any guilt or shame you may feel with integrity,  compassion, and benevolence.

You can expect to understand you more. 

You can expect to feel seen and heard.
