Getting to know Caryn Sherbet

I'm a queer, radically sex-positive therapist who specializes in issues around sexuality, anxiety, and attachment difficulties. My approach honors how the mind-body-culture connection affects our relationships with ourselves and others. Drawing from modalities like psychosomatic therapy, internal family systems (IFS), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I gently push clients to engage with, and heal from, the scary stuff. I'm particularly passionate about helping survivors of sexual trauma get in touch with their bodies and sexuality in a way that feels safe and fulfilling. At the core of my practice is the belief that pleasure is a human right, and I'm here to guide clients toward the pleasure, rest, and joy that they deserve. Some common concerns that folks see me for include anxiety, OCD, existential life questions, gender and/or sexuality exploration, and healing from trauma (sexual, religious, relational, family, or other). I'm highly knowledgeable about and affirming of sex work, kink, polyamory, queerness, neurodiversity, and fat liberation, among others. I've worked as a therapist to predominantly queer individuals and couples since 2022 and have several years' experience in sexual violence intervention prior to that. I work with individuals, couples, polycules, and folks in all sorts of relationships. I also work with kids and teens to provide age-appropriate gender- and sexuality-affirming therapy. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Columbia University. I am licensed as an LMSW (#120053, NY) and LSW (#44SL06978900, NJ), and I am supervised by Andrew Triska, LCSW, as a member of Triska Psychotherapy (LCSW #090300, NY and LCSW #44SC05979000, NJ). I offer sliding scale rates on a case-by-case basis and can sometimes flex my rates for clients whose out-of-network benefits do not adequately cover therapy.
