Hello! I assist BIPOC LGBTQ+ adults (18-40) to overcome anxiety, depression, shame, body image, grief, and trauma, among other challenges. While using various therapeutic techniques, I especially draw from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy to meet your unique needs and goals. Together, we will explore how your past, present, and social environment impact your mental health. I have extensive experience working with BIPOC folx, those with intersectional identities, people from diverse sexual and gender experiences, sex workers, kink/fetish, BDSM, and poly/ENM communities. I would love the opportunity to assist you on your mental health journey in reaching your desired goals. Sliding scale fee available.
I am a mature psychoanalyst who has experience working with college students and other young adults who are facing life transitions. My areas of strength are working with trauma and BPD. You may be carrying a lot of trauma even if you don't identify yourself as a trauma survivor. My approach is not goal or coach oriented. I do not give advice rather I help people to get in touch with their authentic self so that they may be better able to cope with life's challenges.

Are you an international or domestic student living away from home? Do you feel overwhelmed? Confused and homesick? These are common experiences that I can help you cope with as I moved from Mexico, my home country, to start my new life here in the United States when I was 18 years old. I am a native Spanish speaker and identify as Hispanic/Latina. My therapeutic philosophy is grounded in teamwork and following your pace in the therapy room, whether we meet online or in the office, as we explore the stress and pain that brings you to therapy. I appreciate your bravery in seeking the support you deserve. Do not hesitate to reach out via email, call or text. I look forward to hearing from you!

I offer a no-pressure, free video call consultation to see if we're a good fit. Please feel free to reach out.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years experience conducting Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy (CBT.) Aside from my extensive educational and clinical experience, my work is influenced by my lived experience, as an immigrant, fully fluent in Spanish, first generation college student, and parent to neurodivergent youth.

I am also an expert in the early diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders and have worked with parents and siblings of individuals presenting with ASD, ADHD, and other conditions.

I believe that every individual can benefit from psychotherapy. In life, one will encounter hardship; psychotherapy offers a safe space for individuals to receive support without judgment or thinking they are beholden to someone. In my therapeutic work, I strive to help individuals face a variety of challenges, such as depression, grief, anxiety, life transitions, academic difficulties, gender and sexual identity concerns. I specialize in working with cancer patients and their families, LGBTQ+ and disabled folx, which is informed by my positionality as an Asian-American cisgender lesbian that is a caregiver to someone with metastatic cancer. My clients generally describe me as a psychotherapist who is thoughtful, empathic and warm in my communication style. I aim for a transparent and collaborative relationship with my clients. If it sounds like we would be a good fit, you can reach out to the clinic I work out of at 212-889-4042. The clinic Intake Coordinator will be happy to schedule a consultation. Our clinic operates on a sliding scale basis, so your fee will be adjusted based on your income. I will be in touch within 24-48 hours to set up a time for us to meet. Looking forward to hearing from you whenever you’re ready to begin!
Anna Lucille Calabrese is a Licensed Master Social Worker with a keen interest in the human drive to create meaning from the raw material of our lives. Dually trained in clinical social work and theology, Anna’s practice is grounded in mind, body, spirit integration. She draws her approach from many sources including Depth Psychology, Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Internal Family Systems. Anna provides individual, couples and group therapy. At their core, Anna views all these modalities as relational experiences— providing form and structure that allow clients to deepen the sacred relationship to self and others. Some of her areas of focus include complex trauma, somatic experiencing, emotional regulation, addiction in its many forms, divorce and life transitions, coparenting, the LGBTQIA community, eating disorders and chronic illness. Through all of these areas, and following her client’s lead, Anna brings a creative lens to therapeutic work—often intertwining art, writing, movement, nature, film and music into the healing process. She is also interested in helping clients create ceremony and ritual around the liminal spaces in their lives— be it professional transition, the start and end of relationships, birth and death, or recovery from addiction. Anna holds a BA in Creative Writing from the New School, a Masters of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary and a Masters of Social Work from Columbia University. She has worked as a Chaplin in a hospital, a counselor on Rikers Island and with Buddhist monks on end of life care. Through all these experiences, Anna draws on a simple truth: people desire to make meaning of their lives—no matter the circumstance.
The students I work best with are curious, thoughtful, and often in a period of deep self-questioning. Many are figuring out who they are, what they believe, and what kind of life they want to build. Some have experimented with psychedelics and are left with big questions afterward about meaning, identity, emotions, or reality itself. They want support in making sense of those experiences in a grounded, non-judgmental way. I also work well with students who feel alone or disconnected, especially when that feeling traces back to childhood experiences, family dynamics, or early trauma. These students may struggle with anxiety, sadness, shame, or a sense that they don’t quite belong. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, feel understood, and explore what’s coming up without pressure to have it all figured out.
Growth and healing happen when we create space for all parts of ourselves to be witnessed and held. In our work together, I’ll help you develop a compassionate relationship with your inner world while working with you to develop skills and understanding to navigate life’s complexities with greater ease and authenticity. I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds who struggle with issues that impact all areas of their lives: work, friendship, partnership, family, and sex. Some common themes in my practice include: LGBTQ+ identities, gender & sexuality, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges in both traditional and non-traditional relationship structures, complex trauma, sexual trauma, obsessional thinking, communication issues, life transitions, chronic illness, and stress from sexism, racism, ableism. I am a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to supporting clients find understanding, meaning, and change. I work with individuals and relationship partners. I would love to learn about you, where you are in life, and how I can support you to live a more fulfilling life.
