Debbie Ferraro

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, PMH-C

I specialize in working with women struggling with anxiety and depression, self-esteem, and grief and loss. As a Certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist, I also provide care to women navigating pregnancy, fertility challenges, loss, and adjustment during the perinatal phase. Therapy with me is a compassionate, collaborative process in a safe, judgment-free space. Through an emotionally-focused framework, with an attachment-focused orientation and an emphasis on the experiential process, I offer steadfast support and a place to put down the heavy things my clients have been carrying. I weave in my training in CBT, DBT and mindfulness practices where useful to provide a robust therapeutic experience that meets clients where they are on their unique journey.

Kimberly Christopher, LCSW

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW

Kimberly Christopher, LCSW, is a New York City-based licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years of clinical experience offering depth-oriented, integrative psychotherapy for individuals and couples throughout New York State via telehealth.
Her clinical work spans a broad range of presentations — including trauma and PTSD, anxiety and mood disorders, burnout, complex relational patterns, narcissistic abuse recovery, and the psychological dimensions of major life transitions. She has particular expertise in the intersection of hormonal change and mental health, supporting women navigating the emotional, neurobiological, and identity shifts that accompany perimenopause and midlife — an area that remains significantly underserved in standard mental health care.
Kimberly's approach is integrative and neuroscience-informed, drawing from psychodynamic psychotherapy, EMDR therapy, somatic modalities, and attachment-based frameworks. Her work moves beyond insight and coping strategies to address patterns held within the nervous system — supporting change that is felt as well as understood.
She holds a graduate degree from New York University, completed with high honors, and has trained in EMDR through an EMDRIA-approved program. Her practice, Integrative Therapy NY, is a boutique private practice based in Manhattan offering individualized, concierge-level care for high-functioning adults and couples.
