Isabelle Boundy (she/her)

I am a licensed master social worker and psychotherapist at Union Square Practice. I work with children, teens, adults, and perinatal women struggling with adjustment, anxiety, depression, and other difficulties that arise during major life transitions.

My approach is psychodynamic and relational, exploring the roles our past and present relationships play in our mental wellbeing. I also integrate aspects of evidenced-based behavioral interventions, such as DBT and CBT. My work with children is play-based, and aimed at strengthening the child's capacity to regulate emotions and communicate their experience of their world in developmentally-appropriate ways.

I work collaboratively with clients to identify and target their most pressing present concerns, then we explore their personal history to make crucial connections. I believe our past experiences and early relationships hold the data we need to better understand our present-day coping systems, internal narratives, unmet needs, and relational patterns that may create obstacles to our life goals.

I completed my Bachelor’s Degree at Barnard College, prior to earning my Masters in Social Work from Columbia School of Social Work. I completed my clinical training in parent-infant psychotherapy at The Motherhood Center of New York, and went on to complete the Intensive Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program at the William Alanson White Institute. I am a current candidate in the Child and Adolescent Program at IPTAR.

I am currently accepting new patients, both in person and virtually, and would be happy to schedule a free phone or Zoom consultation.
