Dr Kateri Berasi

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“I offer psychotherapy to adults across the lifespan who want to change but feel stuck. I'll use my expertise and compassion to help you better understand yourself. Together we'll create meaning, process difficult emotions, and empower you to overcome your current difficulties.”

About Me

Feeling stuck can be frustrating, especially when you long for change. I offer a compassionate space where we can gently uncover what's holding you back. Together, we'll explore difficult emotions and make sense of your experiences. My aim is to help you build inner understanding and find new ways forward, empowering you to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. This approach is ideal for adults ready to understand themselves deeply and create lasting change.

Approach

When the pressure to change meets uncertainty, I focus on practical, reflective work that clarifies patterns and uncovers unmet needs. In sessions in Brooklyn or via secure online video, in English or French, I keep a steady, attentive rhythm—balancing careful listening, targeted questions, and thoughtful interpretation so we can trace how past influences inform anxiety, mood, relationships, and transitions. Between sessions you may reflect on brief observations we name together. This way of working fits adults ready to look beneath surface patterns and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.
