Kristi Halberstein, LMHC

Psychotherapist
NY
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Perinatal Mental Health Certified, and Certified in the Body Code, as well as Gottman Level 1 and 2 trained. I help women find steadiness and self-compassion through life’s many transitions — motherhood, relationships, and identity shifts — and also work with couples to strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and navigate challenges with greater understanding. My approach is collaborative and grounded in psychodynamic, CBT, IFS, and relational therapy, blending reflection with practical tools for meaningful, real-life change. I became a therapist because I believe deeply in our capacity to grow through even the most challenging seasons. As a mom of three, I bring warmth, humor, and an understanding that healing doesn’t have to look perfect — it just has to be honest.
