Therapy for Women in New York Looking to Overcome Anxiety, Self-Doubt, and Feeling Disconnected from Themselves and Others
On the outside, everything looks fine. Inside, you feel a constant stream of worry and self-doubt.
Therapy can help you quiet those thoughts.
The mental exhaustion of overthinking every conversation.
The nagging feeling that you're not doing “enough.”
The weight of grief that others seem to have forgotten.
The isolation of being the one everyone leans on, but when it’s your turn, you don’t know how to ask for help.
These feelings aren't just uncomfortable – they're exhausting, and frustrating when you feel like, despite doing everything "right," something is still missing.
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Therapy can help you manage this stress and feel more like yourself again.
Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.
Hi, I’m Kim
I help thoughtful, high-achieving people who are tired of overthinking, people-pleasing, and feeling like they're never doing enough.
This isn't therapy where I just nod and ask "how does that make you feel?" Here, you don't have to pretend everything's fine or push down what's really going on. You can show up exactly as you are—confused, burned out, overwhelmed—and be met with warmth and understanding.
I'm an interactive, relational, and down-to-earth therapist who loves going deep with clients to understand why you are the way you are, while also keeping us in the present and helping you implement actual strategies to start feeling better now.
Together, we'll look at what's keeping you stuck in these patterns and help you reconnect with what actually matters to you.
When you feel truly seen and supported—especially after years of putting others first—real change becomes possible.
Areas of Focus
-
Therapy for People-Pleasing and Finding Your Voice
Challenge your fear of conflict, tune in to your feelings and desires, and express yourself effectively in relationships.
-
Therapy for Building Confidence and Improving Self-Worth
Learn to trust yourself and quiet the inner critic that keeps you overthinking, comparing, seeking validation from others, and second-guessing instead of doing.
-
Therapy for Processing Grief, Loss & Life Transitions
Honor the losses that have shaped you—whether recent or long ago—and explore how to carry them forward with meaning and connection.
You’re my kind of client if:
You replay conversations hours (or days) later, worrying if you said too much—or the wrong thing.
You're exhausted from always being the one who keeps it together—at work, at home, in your family.
You feel like no matter what you do, it's not enough, and you could (and should) always be doing more.
You've experienced a loss—of a person, a relationship, a version of yourself—that continues to weigh on you.
You've outgrown parts of your life, like your career or certain friendships, but you're not sure where to turn next.
You feel like no one, even your loved ones, really understands and sees the “real” you, despite your efforts to connect.
I work with people who are thoughtful, caring, and quietly tired of going through the motions. You've probably already tried the self-help books and podcasts. What you need isn't more information—it's the support of an unbiased professional who can help you dig deeper, offer perspective you might be missing, and tailor insights to move you forward in a way that feels meaningful to you.
If you're looking for honest conversations where you can finally be seen and held in all your complexity without judgment, we'll be a great fit.
“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.”
—Maya Angelou
Therapy isn’t about digging up old wounds you won’t be able to manage.
It's about understanding why you feel the way you do and finding new ways to cope with the pain and frustration, while also increasing compassion and skills to navigate future challenges effectively.
Here's what you can look forward to:
Turning down the volume on overthinking and learning to trust your own judgment.
Finding your voice in relationships where you've stayed quiet for too long.
Letting go of the feeling that you're never doing enough and challenging impossible (often invisible) standards.
Reconnecting with what truly matters to you, not what others think or expect of you.
Working through grief and loss, with all its complexity and contradictions, in your own way and at your own pace.
As your therapist, I believe you are the expert on your own story. I'm here to gently shine a light on the parts that get confusing or painful and need attention, love, and clarity. My hope is that you'll leave therapy not just feeling temporarily better, but with a deeper understanding of yourself and more confidence in creating a life that actually aligns with what you really value.
Imagine waking up without that knot of anxiety—just clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of trust in yourself and what you're capable of.
