Eri Linsker, MSW

Psychotherapist

“In a queer practice, I talk with you in a way that I talk only with you, a way we make together, consciously and unconsciously. And I listen with you, facilitating a place you can be attuned to in new ways. As we co-create an intimate conversation, aliveness may grow in and among us.”

About Me

In my queer-affirmative practice, I offer a unique space where we co-create a deeply personal conversation. I listen closely, helping you uncover new ways to attune to your inner world. This bespoke approach fosters an intimate connection, allowing aliveness to emerge. Clients seeking a collaborative, non-judgmental environment will find a supportive match. Here, we explore your whole self, consciously and unconsciously, cultivating deeper understanding and growth.

Approach

From that shared beginning, we shape a tempo and language that fit you—quiet and exploratory or direct and clarifying—so the work can unfold in my New York office, in sessions that feel held and purposeful. We attend to images, dreams, relationships, and the small embodied signals that carry meaning, moving between reflection in session and invitations to notice between meetings. The process is collaborative, paced to your readiness, and helps surface shifts in how you relate to yourself and others. Those seeking an attentive, queer-affirming space often find this approach helpful.
