A different kind of therapy, for change that finally sticks.

Individual and couples therapy in Brooklyn, with telehealth throughout New York State

Understanding your patterns and being free of them are two different things

Therapy for anxiety, trauma, and relationships stuck in old patterns

Many of my clients are thoughtful, high-achieving, and already fluent in their own patterns. They've done real work before, in therapy or on their own, and still find themselves reacting the same way, holding the same tension, having the same argument. If that sounds familiar, you're not starting over here.

You're going somewhere therapy hasn't taken you yet.

You may be managing anxiety, trauma, burnout, or a self-criticism that no accomplishment seems to quiet.

…caught in a relationship pattern or a couples cycle that keeps repeating itself

… or moving through a life transition, a shift in identity, or the unsettling sense that you don’t know whats next…

… this is a good place to start.

Ways We Can Work Together

Individual Therapy

Ongoing, open-ended work, or a focused 16-Week intensive built around a specific goal. Either way, we work beneath the surface to create change that lasts

Couples Therapy

For partners caught in familiar cycles of conflict or distance who want to repair what’s happening and find their way back to each other.

In-Person or Virtual

Meet with me in person in my office in Brooklyn, or virtually from anywhere in New York State

Signature Offering

The 16-Week Model

One goal. Sixteen sessions. A focused path towards real change.

Open-ended therapy is exactly the right fit for many people. Others want something more structured: a defined process, a specific goal, a clear endpoint.

The 16-Week model is a structured course of therapy built around one clear, meaningful goal we define together at the start. Over sixteen weekly sessions, we slow things down, work with what’s happening emotionally and physically in the moment, and begin creating a different experience, not just a deeper understanding of the old one

Meet Anneka

Hi, I'm Anneka. I've spent the last decade moving away from therapy that stays in your head. I work with adults and couples in Brooklyn, many of them ambitious, self-aware, and quietly exhausted by their own insight.

You've read the books. You know your patterns. You can explain, with real clarity, why you react the way you do.

And still, something hasn’t shifted.

Insight was never the missing piece. Change happens somewhere insight can't reach: in the body, in relationship, in the moment itself. That's the work we do together.

Common Themes I Work With

Every client's story is different, but here's what tends to shift:

  • Building patterns that ease anxiety, depression, burnout, and chronic stress

  • Quieting self-criticism, shame, and perfectionism

  • Relating to yourself differently, so old wounds carry less weight

  • Learning to trust your own judgment and set limits without the guilt

  • Allowing emotions to exist, without overwhelm or numbing out

  • Finding solid ground in the middle of change, and a clearer sense of who you're becoming

  • Feeling more connected, to yourself and to the people in your life

  • Turning conflict into closeness, feeling like a team again, not opponents

  • Moving from understanding your patterns to actually changing them

This list isn't exhaustive. If you're wondering whether we'd be a good fit for what you're working through, a consult call is a great place to find out.
