Psychologist Claire Nakajima, PsyD
Specialties: Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Depression, Trauma, Stress,

Introduction

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist providing in-person appointments in Midtown Manhattan and telehealth to residents of New York state. My areas of expertise are anxiety, phobias, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I work with adults, young adults, and couples. I provide a supportive space where you can reconnect with yourself and address what feels overwhelming to handle alone. I specialize in working with anxiety, relationship difficulties, work stress and burnout, or feeling the impact of stressful experiences, including family or childhood trauma. My goal is to guide and help people process their experience and gain the insight and skills to overcome symptoms undermining their ability to build the life and relationships they want. My style is warm, gentle, and honest, with appropriate humor. I also work with couples to improve communication, address unhelpful patterns are escalating in their relationship, and navigate transitions effectively. Together we will work to gain insight and give you tools so that you feel more empowered to reach your goals, whatever they may be. I offer a free phone or video consultation to learn more about what you're experiencing and to see if we would be a good fit in working together. I'm also happy to connect you with other resources if needed. Please reach out if you'd like to get started.
