I’m Paprika, a transgender therapist licensed to provide therapy in New York. believe in providing therapy that is nonjudgmental, empathetic, and attuned to your needs. While the process may be challenging at times, I seek to provide a safe and supportive space to help you better understand yourself and how to approach the challenges you may be facing. I take a warm, conversational style to help you make sense of your emotions and experiences and help you reach your goals.

I am LGBTQ-affirming, kink and body-positive, and disability-informed. I am fluent in a range of modalities including DBT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and motivational interviewing, and I am happy to help find what works best for you. I practice trauma-informed care, and I offer assistance building skills to foster emotional regulation and resilience.

I work with adults with depression, anxiety, substance use issues, identity issues, and difficulties with relationships. I’m happy to collaborate with other providers to ensure you receive the care you need. I look forward to working with you to take the next step to grow and thrive.
