Anja Kreibaum
Psychotherapist and Relationship Coach
I'm a licensed psychotherapist in NYC with international experience and a professor of Psychology and Education at Columbia University. I offer therapy to individuals and couples, drawing on my diverse background to connect with clients from all walks of life.
​
I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we will work towards fostering growth, resilience, and a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships.
Let's embark on this transformative journey together.
I provide Individual and Couples Psychotherapy as well as Relationship Coaching, available both virtually and in-person at my Manhattan office
I would describe my therapeutic style as warm, curious, and direct. My sessions are interactive and goal-oriented, with interventions and approaches primarily influenced by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and the Gottman Method for couples.
As a multiracial and multicultural woman with East Asian and European heritage, who has spent the last 15 years in the United States, I bring a diverse perspective to my practice.
My Specialties
I am trained in and have over a decade of experience treating a wide range of mental health concerns and disorders.
After living and working in New York City since 2013, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how the city can influence our self-esteem, self-worth and perception of fulfillment. In such a fast-paced and competitive environment, you may encounter new challenges, like navigating low self-esteem, imposter syndrome, anxiety, or even depression. These experiences, though challenging, can also be opportunities for developing resilience and rediscovering your inner strength​ for both yourself and any current or future relationships.​
I specialize in the following areas: ​
-
Relationship Counseling
-
Self-Esteem Development
-
Anxiety and Perfectionism
-
Racial/Cultural Identity Issues
-
Life Transitions
-
Trauma (Childhood, Relationship, Cultural)
