Amber Banks, LMSW

Psychotherapist
18 E 16th St, New York, NY
Life can often feel overwhelming. Whether you're adjusting to major life changes, facing challenges in relationships, exploring your identity, or coping with unresolved anxiety, trauma, or grief-you don't have to navigate it alone. In my therapy room, you'll find a safe, judgment-free space to unpack it all. This is a space that honors your experiences and affirms all the parts of your identity that make you, you. Together, we will work to challenge limiting beliefs, process past experiences, and develop healthy coping strategies to help you get unstuck and empower you to create positive changes in your life. We might be a good fit if you are experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, PTSD, ADHD, career transitions, workplace stress, attachment wounds, and/or relationship challenges. I offer affirming and competent support for LGBTQIA+, ENM/CNM, poly, and GNC clients. I hold a Master's in Social Work from New York University, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In working with me, you can expect person-centered care that integrates insights from neuroscience, attachment theory, harm reduction, and evidence-based practices for trauma. I take an integrative approach, incorporating internal family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness, psychodynamic and somatic therapies. I’ve received post-graduate training in emotionally focused therapy, trauma-focused CBT, integrated treatment for mental health and addiction, schema therapy, and psychedelic integration.
