Hello! I am a therapist in private practice as well as the co-founder and director of clinical operations for a group practice called Holistic Psychotherapy NYC. I believe in holistic healing and the power of connection and compassion. I seek to empower individuals who are looking to better understand themselves, cope effectively with various life stressors, navigate relationship issues, work on self-esteem, or want to integrate mental health into their overall wellness. I also specialize in working with individuals struggling with disordered eating and negative body image. My approach is psychodynamic, interpersonal, and relational. I am also trained in EMDR and utilize mindfulness in my work. I also incorporate elements from my background as a holistic health coach and yoga teacher.

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 consider myself an "eclectic" therapist which means that my goal is to tailor your therapy with what I’ve learned to meet your specific needs. I love what I do and have great respect for the therapeutic process. Whatever that process is for you, I am here to guide you through it.
