I'm Ivy Chim, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and somatic trauma therapist based in Brooklyn, NY. I specialize in complex trauma and childhood sexual abuse, working with women who are self-aware, have often tried therapy before, and are still finding themselves stuck in the same patterns, the same relationships, the same loneliness. My approach is somatic and relational, working with the whole person, not just their thoughts, because the body holds what the mind has tried to outrun. I follow the pace of your nervous system, building safety first, then going to the places that have never felt safe enough to visit. I trained in Somatic Experiencing, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Imago Relationship Therapy, therapeutic yoga, and breathwork. I offer individual therapy and intensive work for women ready to stop surviving and start living.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (NYS) who is board-certified in Advanced Palliative and Hospice Social Work (APHSW-C). I provide counseling for patients and their loved ones navigating serious illness, as well as those struggling with caregiver burden/distress and new or persistent grief over losses, past and present.

I am trained in both the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), two evidence-based approaches to couples work. Together, they give me a rich framework for helping couples feel truly heard, have better conversations, and rebuild the connection, friendship, trust, and intimacy that brought them together in the first place, including rediscovering the lightness and fun that can get lost over time.
The same principles that guide my couples work inform my approach with individual clients as well, because how we relate to others is inseparable from how we understand ourselves.
