Alaina Malik, MA

Psychotherapist
875 6th Ave, Ste 2300, New York, NY
Life can be loud and chaotic, making it hard to connect with yourself at the day's end. As an attachment-focused therapist, or a ‘relationship therapist for the individual,’ I work to help my clients feel grounded in the true sentiment of self-love and compassion. Our therapeutic work together may focus on nourishing your inner child, identifying and redefining unhealthy attachment patterns, and rewriting personal narratives to reconnect with your own sense of empowerment and self-confidence. I specialize in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds who struggle with anxiety, codependency, depression, interpersonal problems, life transitions, multicultural identity issues, self-defeating thinking and behaviors, self-esteem and confidence, and sexual, relational, and intergenerational traumas. My approach is individualized to the client. It is active, collaborative, and attuned to the body. I draw from humanistic, psychodynamic, and spiritual therapies. Working together means co-creating a therapeutic journey designed to achieve lasting emotional change existing beyond the therapy room. I hold a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from New York University, which has equipped me with a strong foundation to support my clients with empathy and expertise.
