**Currently unable to accept new patients** I am a board-certified psychiatrist with a relatively eclectic background and a commitment to maintaining a warm, open and non-judgmental space for all individuals I work with.

Dr. Naama Hofman is a clinical psychologist in private practice. She specializes in evidence-based treatments for a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, OCD, insomnia, and psychosis.

My approach is active, compassionate and goal oriented. My areas of expertise include relationships, couples therapy, stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, parenting, learning, and career development. I work with clients to replace negative, rigid or chaotic patterns with creative, positive and fulfilling alternatives. Each session is focused, goal directed, and collaborative to set the stage for transforming personal narratives and behavior patterns. I guide clients to overcome obstacles/blind spots and shift in positive and proactive ways to improve their relationships and to experience well being. In my 3 decades of clinical experience, I have had the joy of witnessing many clients become more purposeful, creative, and productive in their lives.

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in the treatment of disordered eating and body image concerns, as well as issues related to women's health, pregnancy, miscarriage, and adjustment to significant life transitions such as parenthood, work-family balance, college, career change, and loss. I believe a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship is essential in the facilitation of healing, and the process of growth and change. I employ an integrative method, drawing from various theoretical understandings and treatment modalities, to develop an effective approach to address distinct needs.
Additionally, I believe the consideration of multicultural and social factors to be central to the understanding of individual concerns. My style is warm and engaged, aimed at both reducing symptoms and increasing insight into interpersonal patterns, and past influences on current functioning.
As a native Spanish speaker, I also bring extensive experience working bilingually in hospital, college, and private practice settings. In addition to individual psychotherapy, I offer consultation to parents and families on various topics related to child and adolescent development, preparing for the transition to college, and eating and body image concerns.

Sue Sugarman, MSW, LCSW-R, BCD, is a licensed clinical social worker with a rich background of over 25 years dedicated to working with children, adolescents, and families. Sue also has a subspecialty in working with youth athletes. She played a pivotal role in co-authoring the inaugural master's-level course in social work focused on the mental health of athletes. Since the spring of 2022, she has been imparting her expertise through the course "An Introduction to Mental Health in Athletes and Clinical Social Work" at NYU Silver School of Social Work. When collaborating with athletes, Sue places a strong emphasis on cultivating a high-performance mindset, recognizing its potential to be the defining factor between success and failure. This mental skill set encompasses goal setting, diligence in training, sustained motivation, and maintaining a positive outlook in the face of challenges or unmet expectations—all crucial components for fostering resilience.

May is a prelicensed professional who works with adults, centering intersectional identities in her work, and is committed to honoring the complexities that they hold within a white-centered, patriarchal society. Despite the seriousness of this mission, she is quick to find humor in all things and, through experience, uses it as a tool to explore injustice, emotions, and even trauma. She is trauma-informed and uses a client-centered approach that prioritizes the strength of the therapeutic relationship as a route to emotional tolerance and positive change.

I’m a psychotherapist with over two decades of experience helping individuals, couples, and families move through the complex and often contradictory realities of being human. My work is grounded in psychodynamic exploration and shaped by a strengths-based belief that people aren’t starting from scratch—they already hold the insight, resilience, and inner resources needed for healing. Therapy offers the support and perspective that allow those parts to emerge.

I draw from a broad and flexible range of modalities—DBT, IFS, AF-EMDR, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and addiction-informed approaches—so the work is responsive, intuitive, and tailored to each person’s needs and inner rhythm.

Collaboration is central to my practice. Clients thrive when the professionals supporting them are aligned, so I welcome close partnership with other clinicians to create thoughtful, coordinated care. I also provide supervision and consultation for therapists who want to deepen their clinical thinking and show up for their clients with clarity, consistency, and humanity.

Dr. Rapoport believes in a holistic approach to treatment that takes into consideration the many interrelated parts of the human being (biological, emotional, cognitive, relational, cultural, and spiritual). She creates a warm, open environment to explore and expand on character strengths and goals, encourage healing and increase a sense of agency and empowerment.
