Montclair Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Jonah Mantell

I work with a wide range of clients encompassing many ages, backgrounds, and identities focusing on a variety of areas including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship conflict, grief, gender and sexuality exploration, and more. I want my clients to know I am here to navigate and accomplish their goals on their own terms. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship can be built with open communication, honest feedback, and accountability both on the part of the client and the therapist.

Raven Malave

I have experience working with teens and young adults of all genders facing challenges like depression, anxiety, panic attacks, identity struggles, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and interpersonal conflicts. Navigating transitions like high school or college while learning about themselves and their place in the world can feel overwhelming, especially when other obstacles arise. My ideal client is ready to begin a meaningful journey toward self-discovery and personal growth.

Brianna Halasa

I'm passionate about working with clients who have survived trauma, be it emotional, physical, or sexual. Your body remembers all you experienced and deserves the space to safely reprocess. I love working with children of immigrants navigating intergenerational family dynamics or cultural conflicts. Together we can weave your intersecting identities and values into the tapestry of your life. I also enjoy working with women affected by the patriarchal systems in which we are forced to exist.

If you struggle with intense feelings you can't always explain or find yourself drawn to relationships that just leave you feeling worse, I am here to support you. Your feelings are valid and we will create space for them while also working on strategies to help you manage them so they don't manage you. We can work on ways to communicate your needs to others more effectively and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

My mission with Rockland County Counseling Services is to combine my passion for community building with my psychotherapy expertise.

Yoheved Retig

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by depression and/or anxiety and lost about how to move forward in your life? Is it making your social life, work, family life, and everything in between harder and harder? Have your ways of coping become harmful? Do you dread things you used to enjoy? Anxiety and depression can be soul-sucking. I can help you take back control of your life and help you be in control of your mind, rather than the other way around, so you can live a better life.

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Perhaps you've experienced depression, anxiety, or the loss of a loved one and are trying to make sense of it all. Perhaps you've never had the space to explore your feelings toward your sexuality or gender identity. I strive to offer a safe space to get in touch with these feelings and explore without reservation. I work with adults and young adults and draw from an eclectic blend of therapeutic techniques to meet your needs.

In the safe, supportive environment of therapy, you can reclaim your well-being and find your way to a meaningful, fulfilling life.

I primarily work with LGBTQ clients, BIPOC clients, immigrants or children of immigrants, and those with autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, social anxiety, and low self-esteem. And since I work with many marginalized populations, it is important to me that clients understand how their struggles are impacted more by society than by themselves.

Sarah Ehrich

I work with people who feel alienated, or like they don't belong. Addiction, substance use disorders, and trauma are special interests of mine. Since I’m a queer therapist with a mixed background, I also align well with individuals in the LGBTQ+ community, or who are struggling with their cultural identities. As a result of therapy, my clients feel more connected to themselves, to their communities, and to the world around them.
