Our Therapist Team

Hannah Sherman, LCSW (she/her)
Psychotherapist & Founder

I specialize in trauma recovery, identity issues, mood and emotional regulation, anxiety, and depression. I work to empower individuals and families to identify and utilize their inherent strengths to navigate obstacles and interpersonal challenges. As a queer identified therapist, I’m committed to approaching my work with curiosity, affirmation, compassion and authenticity.

I work through a collaborative and creative process that integrates various therapeutic modalities, including elements of psychodynamic, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic-based approaches. By using a compassionate, client-centered approach, I support others in developing an authentic and welcoming sense of self. My therapeutic approach employs a culturally-informed lens and is rooted in a social justice framework.

I’m available to meet with client’s virtually for online video sessions, or at my office in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn.

The goals of my practice are to help you:

  • Heal from painful experiences

  • Develop an integrated sense-of-self 

  • Strengthen your own curiosity and self-compassion

  • Improve insight and self-awareness

  • Identify and utilize mindfulness-based coping tools 

I have experience treating:

  • Depression and anxiety spectrums

  • Mood disorders and challenges with emotional regulation

  • Identity and LGBTQ+ issues

  • Life transitions and stress

  • Trauma and PTSD

  • Family systems and relationship issues

Maya Street-Sachs, LMSW (she/her)
Psychotherapist

I am a psychodynamic therapist with more than 5 years experience working with young people and their families, including pre-teens, teenagers, and young adults. I provide a warm, open, flexible, and non-judgmental space for young people to work through and grapple with their identity issues, relationships, anxiety, depression, and trauma recovery.

My therapeutic approach is individualized and adaptable - allowing my clients to find a voice as well as a sense of empowerment and self-discovery through their experience with therapy. I strive to practice therapy through a structurally competent lens, keeping in mind how racist and rigid structures and systems in this modern life affect the mental health and wellbeing of the individual.  

I’m available to meet with clients virtually for online video sessions. 

The goals of my practice are to help you:

  • Learn tools to begin to heal from painful experiences

  • Develop your sense of self and self-confidence 

  • Improve insight and self-awareness

  • Identify and utilize mindfulness-based coping tools 

  • Gain confidence in asking for what you want and need in life

  • Find ways to thrive rather than just survive 

I have experience treating:

  • Depression and anxiety spectrums

  • Identity and LGBTQ+ issues

  • Life transitions and stress, including immigration and family separation 

  • Family systems and relationship issues

  • Body image issues
