Body-Positive Therapy NYC
Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy
Find relief from the challenges of masking your way through a world that wasn’t built with your unique wiring in mind. Serving adults and teens in NYC, NY State, and Connecticut.
If you identify as, or suspect you might be, a neurodivergent person, you know that navigating the norms and ideals of our neurotypical world can be challenging. Not just regular challenging…extraordinarily challenging.
You’ve always felt “different”, struggled to “fit in” socially, and can’t shake the feeling that you are facing judgment or bias from other people.
Maybe you’ve even tried another therapy, but even the therapist, while well-meaning, didn’t really understand you.
And you’re just so damn tired of existing in systems that don’t accommodate your needs.
You face unique challenges and deserve unique support.
Neurodivergent affirming support: where your strengths as a neurodivergent person are honored, and your struggles as a neurodivergent person are truly understood; support from a provider informed about the struggles neurodivergent people face in a world that often fails to understand them, and equipped with strategies that can help neurodivergent people thrive as their authentic selves.
Why would this time be any different?
-
Social Challenges
If social interactions leave you feeling exhausted or misunderstood, we’re here to help you build meaningful connections.
-
Sensory Overload
If overwhelming environments heighten your stress, we can work together to develop strategies for nervous system regulation and self-care.
-
Anxiety and Depression
Anxiety or depression may be inevitable for many neurodivergent people navigating oppressive, unaccommodating systems. We validate your experiences and help you develop coping strategies to navigate the overwhelm.
-
Burnout
If you’re feeling exhausted from trying to fit in, keep up, or white knuckle your way through circumstances that don’t accommodate your needs, chances are you are burned out AF. We can work on sustainable self-care practices that allow you to drop the mask, honor your authentic self, and thrive (not just survive).
