Tessie Beaubrun

Psychotherapist

I'm a native New Yorker and first-gen therapist who gets how tough it can be to navigate life in this city. I help people dealing with anxiety, burnout, loneliness, and big life transitions—especially LGBTQIA+ clients, first-gen professionals, and postdocs juggling career pressure, and identity struggles

About Me

As a native New Yorker and first-gen therapist, I truly understand navigating this city's unique pressures. I help you address anxiety, burnout, and loneliness, especially during major life transitions. My focus includes LGBTQIA+ clients, first-gen professionals, and postdocs often juggling career demands and identity struggles. In our sessions, we can explore these challenges together, finding clarity within a grounded, relatable space. My approach offers a genuine connection for those seeking support tailored to their experience.

Approach

City rhythms and pressure points tend to show up quickly in sessions, so I help you slow things down to name patterns and choose actions that fit your values. In our work we mix noticing what’s happening in the body and relationships with practical experiments—small steps between sessions that test new ways of communicating, setting boundaries, or tolerating uncomfortable feelings. Sessions move at your pace, balancing direct feedback with curiosity, and people juggling identity, career stress, or transitions often find this steady, pragmatic approach helpful.
