Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Perhaps you've done everything "right." Therapy. Supplements. Books. Meditation. Yet your nervous system still feels like it's carrying something much older than today's stress. I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, depression, CPTSD, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.

Staci Des Rault
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC. M.Div
Insight alone does not create change, but without it, we're just bumping around in the dark. If you choose to work with me, we will work on both developing insight and self-awareness, as well as behavioral and emotional change. My style is warm and supportive, but I won't shy away from offering constructive feedback if you are open to it. My areas of expertise include helping people recover from alcohol/substance use issues, trauma, family of origin issues, spiritual abuse and religious trauma/deconstruction, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD management, and stages of life transitions.

Barry Herbach
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Online EMDR is just as effective as in-person — sometimes more so, because you’re doing the work in your own safe space. We use tools that work across a secure video connection, and sessions are tailored to your pace and your nervous system.
If you’re ready to stop circling the same pain and start reprocessing it for good, I’m here when you’re ready.

I specialize in supporting women to heal “unfinished emotional business” from the past in a strength-focused, non-pathologizing, depth-oriented, and strictly confidential way. I invite a sacred space for your originality, inner imagery, thoughts and feelings to reverberate more deeply for you so that you can clear the emotional wounds that hide your highest potential.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
Even though sessions are virtual, I deeply value creating a genuine therapeutic connection and relationship with each client. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable or intimidating, and I strive to create a space that feels warm, supportive, and human from the very beginning. Building trust and helping clients feel truly seen and understood is at the core of my work. I’m proud that many of my clients choose to continue working with me long term, which I believe reflects the strength of the relationships we build together and the sense of safety and consistency they experience in therapy.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
Adolescents and adults navigating their faith and sexuality (LGBTQ+ affirming), anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, grief, trauma, pregnancy/postpartum, family of origin concerns, identity development, and general life stressors and transitions would particular enjoy working with me. Multicultural couples and families navigating culture clashes, estrangement, faith transitions, and sexual and intergenerational trauma, especially for BIPOC populations, are treatment specialties. Psychedelic psychotherapy preparation and integration are also available with referrals to clinics and others who can provide medication administration. Psychological assessment to clarify diagnoses such as autism, bipolar disorder, ADHD, etc., Independent Medical Evaluations (IME), worker’s compensation, preemployment for first responders, and fitness-for-duty-evaluations are also offered. Approaching patients with cultural humility is a core value at Malak Psychology honoring who you are, your ancestors, and the indigenous land we occupy.
Grounded in decolonizing mental health, liberation, and feminist psychologies, my practice employs multimodal approaches, including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, cognitive processing therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, somatic experiencing, emotionally focused couples therapy, Gottman, family systems, psychoanalysis, and more.
Empowering you to forge your unique path, I serve as a guide with an emphasis on agency and self-determination. Collaborative wellness plans allow participants to decide the depth of exploration into subjects. I ensure evidence-based, collaborative, and individualized care by incorporating peer-reviewed research and indigenous knowledge systems.

Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
I provide therapy for gay men and hold licenses in New Jersey, New York, and Utah. Many gay men worry that a therapist might not fully understand their experiences or that they’ll have to hide parts of themselves in session. I once shared those same concerns, and they’re what inspired me to become a therapist who offers affirming, authentic care. Together, we’ll create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can find clarity, growth, and the confidence to live more fully.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained at Columbia University, with additional certification as a sex therapist through AASECT and advanced relationship training from The Couples Institute. Over the past two decades, I’ve supported gay men in a variety of settings—including the NYC LGBT Community Center and Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC).

Lauren Bradley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My mission is to bring ease to therapy with a relaxed, down-to-earth approach, where comfort and insight go hand in hand. Clients can look forward to several key benefits from our sessions, including Enhanced Self-Understanding, Coping Strategies, Personal Growth, Increased Emotional Well-being and Insight.
I specialize in a wide range of areas, including anxiety and depressive disorders, trauma and post-traumatic stress, sexual violence, grief, coping with chronic illness or cancer, life transitions, relationship and family issues, low self-esteem, women’s and men’s health, as well as caregiver distress and burnout. Together, we’ll work on building the tools and insights you need to achieve greater mental and emotional well-being.
I take a very participatory approach in sessions. While I provide a space for clients to express themselves freely, I also actively engage in the conversation, offering insights, feedback, and guidance. I aim to create a collaborative environment where we work together to explore challenges, identify solutions, and foster growth.

When Understanding Yourself Isn't Enough
There is a particular kind of stuck that therapy books don't prepare you for. You've done the reflecting. You understand your patterns. And still, the same things keep happening — the same anxiety, the same relationship dynamics, the same feeling that something just won't shift.
That gap between understanding yourself and actually changing is real, and it's not a character flaw. It's where the real work begins.
What We Work On
As a licensed clinical social worker in Manhattan, New York, working with adults navigating:
Trauma and PTSD
Depression and anxiety
Relationship patterns that have resisted change
Borderline personality and emotional dysregulation
Codependency and attachment wounds
How We Work
Treatment centers on EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) — two approaches that work at the level where insight alone doesn't reach. Not just the thinking mind, but the nervous system, the body, the parts of you still braced for something that already happened.
What to Expect
People who find their way here tend to be perceptive, self-aware, and genuinely motivated — and still struggling. Sessions are direct, warm, and honest. Nothing you bring will be too much. Nothing will shock me.
Getting Started
Located in Stuyvesant Town, lower Manhattan. Virtual sessions available throughout New York State. Fee is $250 per session, with a free 15-minute consultation to start.
