Emotions like anxiety, grief, and sadness aren’t problems to solve—they’re part of what makes you human. When they start to feel overwhelming, asking for help does not mean you’re weak or incapable – it’s a courageous act of self-care.
When you find a safe, supportive space where you can listen to your emotions, you can begin to untangle the chaos in your mind, and take steps toward living a life that feels right for you.
Whether you’re in the depths of despair after saying goodbye to a pet, feeling paralyzed by future uncertainties, or lost about how to move forward in your life, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
You don’t have to be fully healed to find meaning. Purpose and joy can coexist with grief and uncertainty—you just need a place to start. Let’s take that step together.
I’m Paige Rechtman – LGBTQIA+ Affirming Psychotherapist (LMHC), Creative, and Real Human.
I help burnt-out and overwhelmed New Yorkers cope with anxiety, panic attacks, relationship challenges, and grief before and after loss.
In my practice, I combine modern therapeutic interventions, like cognitive behavioral therapy [CBT], with a depth-oriented psychodynamic approach. This gives you tools that provide immediate relief from anxiety, along with insight that uncovers patterns and create lasting change.
I believe change is both a process of learning new skills and unlearning the beliefs that keep you stuck. My goal is to help you think outside the box of your own mind and find the courage to step onto a brighter path that feels more whole and free.
If racing thoughts keep you up late at night, I get it. Together, we can untangle your worries, help you develop a more positive view of yourself and find inner peace.
Losing a pet is one of the most difficult experiences you ever go through. Never feel rushed as you process your grief and find ways to live your life fully in their honor.
Get practical tools and guided exercises, to help you reduce anxiety and burnout and cope with difficult emotions like anger, overwhelm, grief, etc.
