Your Personalized Journey to Healing and Growth
Finding a therapist in a city as vast as New York can feel like a search for a compass in a bustling metropolis. You may be dealing with the relentless pace of life, the feeling of being overwhelmed, or the quiet weight of your own thoughts. It's a journey many of us embark on, and you don't have to navigate it alone. At Rise Psychology NYC, we believe that therapy is more than just a service; it's a dedicated and confidential space for you to explore, heal, and grow.
We understand that you are a unique individual with your own story, challenges, and strengths. Our approach to individual psychotherapy is to partner with you to uncover patterns, identify triggers, process past experiences, and build a robust set of tools that you can apply to everyday life. It’s about more than just talking—it’s about gaining new perspectives, healing from past wounds, and developing the resilience needed to live a more authentic and fulfilling life. We are here to help you slow down, reflect, and reclaim your well-being, one step at a time.
Addressing a Spectrum of Concerns
At Rise Psychology, we specialize in a range of concerns that are often intertwined with living in a high-pressure environment. We provide expert, compassionate care tailored to your specific needs. Our therapists are skilled at helping clients with:

We help you understand the root causes of these feelings, develop coping strategies, and regain a sense of joy and meaning.
-
Healing from Trauma: If you have experienced a distressing event, trauma-informed therapy offers a safe and effective approach to processing your memories, reducing triggers, and rebuilding a sense of safety and control. Our work is grounded in compassion and is designed to help you move forward from past pain.

-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): We help you learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with your values.
-
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): A skills-based approach that focuses on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance.
-
Mindfulness and Self-Compassion Practices: We teach techniques to help you stay grounded, reduce stress, and cultivate a kinder relationship with yourself.
-
Trauma-Informed Care: Every session is approached with a deep understanding of how past experiences can impact your present, ensuring a safe and non-judgmental environment.
Our practice is proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming and committed to a multicultural feminist perspective, ensuring that therapy is a truly welcoming space for individuals from all backgrounds. We offer both in-person therapy in our comfortable Midtown and Brooklyn offices and virtual therapy sessions for clients anywhere across New York State.
