Calm Anxiety, Improve Relationships and Embrace All the Colors of Your Life.
I offer art therapy and psychotherapy in NYC (with Flatiron and Washington Heights therapy offices) to help adults manage anxiety, live fully and have more meaningful relationships.
As humans, we love certainty, predictability and clarity, but life is never so black and white. It is chaotic and ambivalent – it is shades of gray (and also red, blue, pink, purple, green and yellow!)
Our challenge is to accept all the changing colors we’re given, create what we can with them, and somehow find beauty, peace and meaning in the mess. It is not an easy task, but you don’t have to go it alone.
“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.”
~ Brené Brown
Art Therapy and Psychotherapy in the Flatiron and Washington Heights for less anxiety and healthier relationships
Perhaps you grew up with a parent who abused alcohol, or maybe you are in recovery yourself. You are drawn to drama and don’t know why (or maybe you do, but you still can’t seem to shift those patterns.) You might be a high achiever and be successful at work, but work and “being busy” gets in the way of connecting fully to yourself and to others. Anxiety is intrusive.
You are concerned with what people might think and try to please everyone, sometimes at the expense of your own well being. Maybe perfectionist tendencies keep you frozen instead of being able to move forward. Or you struggle with intimacy and relationships and feel like you aren’t worthy of a partner who respects your needs.
Perhaps you’ve had a loss or are going through a transition that has triggered old unresolved feelings from the past.
If any of this resonates, I would love to help you feel fully in control of your life, and empowered to find joy in yourself and in authentic, healthy and secure connections. I offer therapy in the Flatiron and Washington Heights areas of Manhattan.

Jennifer Breslow, LCAT, ATR-BC, CASAC
Having provided Art Therapy and Psychotherapy in NYC for the last fifteen years, there has been no greater joy for me than witnessing people inhabit their authentic selves and shift the patterns that are no longer working for them.
I am a Licensed Creative Art Therapist in NY (LCAT), Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) and Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC) and I have additional training in trauma work and mind/body approaches. I have worked for many years with addiction, both with those in recovery and those touched by addiction. I help people change their inner voice from, “you should be…” to “this is how I am and it’s just fine.” I can help you soften the need to be perfect, become more connected and genuine in relationships and embrace a life that is messy, joyful, sad, confusing, and exhilarating all at the same time.
As an animal lover, I also have training in pet loss counseling and can help you navigate the grief of losing a pet.
