ABOUT ELEMENTAL BROOKLYN

Elemental Brooklyn was born of a simple seed planted on a beautiful day, by two friends and colleagues sitting amongst trees and graves in a gorgeous Brooklyn cemetery; a place where nature meets humanity, life meets death, and the divine meets the mundane. Here, we were reminded of the core fact of healing – the elements outside us are also within us, and with the right support, we can find balance through embodying them. 

Inspired by this realization, Elemental Brooklyn was born: a collection of mental health professionals dedicated to building a community and co-creating a practice in which individual talents and authenticity are celebrated, bringing our integrative approach to those we serve. In other words - we’ve chosen to work together because we really like each other.

At Elemental, therapy goes beyond diagnosis and treatment plans. We prioritize centering the wholeness of every person we work with - your time, treatment, and care plan will honor the fullness of you and your life through incorporating your goals, dreams, sexuality, spirituality, and more.

Our offerings are both in-person and virtual, accessible throughout New York State and beyond.
