CPT
Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Our practice is grounded in a deep appreciation for the diverse experiences that shape each person’s life. Our founder grew up in Jamaica, Queens, surrounded and supported by three generations of remarkable women—an experience that continues to inform the values of care, resilience, and community that guide our work today. Across our practice, we have the privilege of supporting individuals from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and socioeconomic experiences, each bringing their own unique perspectives and concerns. As a practice founded by a Black, queer, first-generation college graduate, we hold a strong awareness of how power, privilege, and systemic forces shape daily life and mental health. We also recognize the vulnerability it takes to seek therapy. Our work is informed not only by clinical expertise, but by a deep respect for the courage and commitment involved in pursuing healing and meaningful change. This perspective shapes our intention to create a space that is thoughtful, affirming, and responsive to the full complexity of our clients’ lived experiences.

CPT
Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than your physical health—it can change your identity, your relationships, your sense of safety, and your hopes for the future. With a strong medical background and years of training and experience treating chronic pain and chronic illness, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for making sense of these experiences and finding actionable ways to move forward. My approach is collaborative and individualized, combining evidence-based psychological treatment with an understanding of the complex relationship between the brain, body, nervous system, emotions, behavior, and symptoms. Whether you are struggling with chronic pain, symptoms that persist despite medical treatment, illness-related anxiety, medical trauma, PTSD, sleep problems, or trying to adjust to a life that has changed, therapy can help you feel more capable, hopeful, and empowered to build the life you want.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
At the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness, we believe everyone can benefit from therapy. From the time we’re young, we’re taught how to take care of our physical health and our bodies, but we’re not generally taught how to manage our thoughts and emotions so we can take care of our mental wellbeing. Many people never seek psychological help, and others may only seek it when they are experiencing a crisis. We aim to change this. We believe that investing in your psychological health is essential to overall wellbeing, no matter your life circumstances. Life is challenging, and everyone can use support. We believe in providing care across the spectrum of psychological health, and in fostering mental and emotional wellbeing in addition to treating mental illness. We believe strongly in providing only evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapies: therapy that has proven to be effective through copious research studies. We also employ only doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in providing these evidence-based services.
