What is a Feminist Practice?

My intersectional feminist approach to therapy is intended for people of all genders. 

Feminist therapy falls under a relational model of psychotherapy. In feminist therapy there is a boundaried, yet egalitarian, relationship between the therapist and the client. The therapist’s experience and psychodynamic training, and the client’s understanding of their own self, are both of equal importance. Equality within this relationship is used to model healthier relationships for healing. Similarly, systems of oppression are recognized in how they shape human behavior.

I am proud to be an independently practicing Manhattan Alternative provider.
