About Greenpoint Psychotherapy
At Greenpoint Psychotherapy, we provide compassionate, individualized mental health care in a welcoming and inclusive environment. Our therapists are committed to culturally responsive treatment that honors each client's unique identity and experiences.
We believe effective therapy requires understanding the whole person, including how factors like culture, identity, and life experiences shape mental health. Our practice seeks to foster a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals, couples, and families can explore, heal, and grow authentically.
We are dedicated to reducing mental health stigma by providing high quality, accessible private practice therapy that empowers clients to achieve their personal goals and live more fulfilling lives.
