When looking for a therapist the Bronx, NY has more options than a lot of more rural or suburban places, but the best person for the job may remain elusive. Even in areas where there are many therapists, you may not be able to find one that specializes in what you need, much less that you connect with. With online therapy platforms like BetterHelp, individuals can simply fill out an online questionnaire to be matched with a therapist that meets their specific needs. BetterHelp has over 30,000 licensed mental healthcare professionals with extensive experience working in all areas of talk therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, relationship counseling, compassionate care for women, and more.

Sessions can be built into your busy schedule easily with video chat, phone, and text options, and are held from the comfort of your own home. And while BetterHelp doesn’t accept insurance, people often find online sessions more affordable than many individual practices.
For residents of Bronx county, BetterHelp can be a fast, easy, and convenient way to get the therapy they need. Simply fill out an online questionnaire to be matched with a licensed professional.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page. Life is complex, unpredictable, and challenging. This can result in a lot of stress, fear, and heartbreak; but it can also bring joy, beauty, and positive change. I have over ten years' experience working with people who are dealing with many of life's challenges, and it has been my privilege to assist them in finding their way from the first group of experiences to the second. I believe that people are inherently whole as they are, and that problems such as depression and anxiety happen to us, rather than being a part of who we are. My expertise is in the areas of couple relationships, LGBTQ+ clients, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. In therapy, my approach is collaborative, strength-focused, non-judgmental, and compassionate. I do not believe in using stigmatizing labels to describe my clients, but if you have a diagnosis that is helpful for you in making sense of your situation, I will always respect that. I believe that you are the expert on your life, while I am the expert on therapeutic techniques to help you with your life. I use a primarily systemic, narrative approach, with some elements of cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused therapies in my work. Together, we will create a customized plan to address the problems you are dealing with and clear the path to your best life. It takes courage to seek change in your life, and I respect my clients for taking this important step. I look forward to working with you as you regain a sense of yourself and come to a place of empowerment.

My name is Kiernan Hamilton, and I am a licensed clinical social worker, with the R psychotherapy designation for the state of New York. I have been in this field of work since 2006, starting off working with families with youth that had behaviors which put them at risk for placement outside of the home. I then worked in community mental health dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, severe mental illness, trauma, and family issues. I also supervised new social workers to develop their own practice. From there, I did program development for our local hospice care, as well as grief counseling and social work roles. Most recently, I have grown as a private practitioner. I work with primarily teens and adults on issues related to relationship and family issues, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and stress management. I ONLY DO LIVE MESSAGING/CHAT SESSIONS

Therapy is essential because it provides the safest space for us to be our most authentic self. Therapy allows us to speak our unapologetic truth without fear of judgement by family and friends. Think about this.. Most people have had experiences/feelings that are connected to shame and guilt? Do we run to family and friends to share these experiences/feelings? Those of us that answer no should understand how these repressed thoughts/feelings manifest in our lives and this is where therapy comes in! Many people misunderstand the importance of having a Therapist. A lot of people feel like they can deal with life's challenge's on their own. While self determination is great it does not allow for authentic revelations. Self determination in this sense is equivalent to cross examining yourself on the witness stand. Think about it...are we truly capable of asking ourselves the tough questions? Do we have the insight to go deep and connect past experiences to current events? Can we say to ourselves hmmm... I just connected my past trauma to the manifestation of some of my problematic behavior? If you have that level of insight then that is great however if you are among the many that cannot then please allow yourself the opportunity to benefit from therapy. Therapy can help you discover some revelations that may change your life! Using Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness I will help you connect the dots. I will help you understand your emotional cycle (experiences, feelings, behaviors and consequences. I will help you identify your triggers and determine what peace of mind looks like for you. Using S.M.A.R.T goals will help us set goals that can be tracked and measured so you can see your success in real time. Your success is my success! In closing.. As we get older the expectation is that we can "just deal with it" but the reality is this...Dealing with certain feelings and emotions is not that easy to do alone. Choosing to have a Therapist in your life is the best way to "just deal with it" So let's get started! Hope to hear from you soon! Chamika Barrant

I am licensed in New York with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I am trained in Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, EMDR and my practice also includes interventions from Gestalt, Person-centered, Internal Family Systems, and other therapy approaches. I believe that when addressing fears and anxieties, the most effective approach is to work toward facing those fears a little bit at a time with tenderness, patience, acceptance, and imagination. I often see clients work through their problems and experience relief from symptoms after getting to the bottom of their core fear. In my practice, I also see a lot of individuals with perfectionistic styles, traumatic backgrounds, and self-neglect, that result in procrastination or overwork, burnout, and self-blame. I am here to support and empower you to change these symptoms by shifting to flexible attitudes and beliefs, which frees up room for problem-solving and behavior change.
