Shih Han Lu

Shih Han Lu

Therapist

Virtual • New York


As an Asian immigrant from Taiwan, I understand firsthand the pressures of balancing cultural expectations with life in the U.S.—like feeling torn between family obligations and personal goals, navigating identity in different cultural spaces, or struggling to express emotions that may not feel “acceptable” in your community. These experiences inform my work with clients who feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected, especially when patterns from the past show up in relationships, work, or life transitions. With years of experience in private practice and community clinics in NYC, I create a compassionate, culturally attuned space for young adults, professionals, and anyone seeking to better understand themselves, explore their emotions, and build clarity, confidence, and resilience.

Dr. Sylvie Messer

Dr. Sylvie Messer

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults and couples seeking to better understand themselves, make meaningful changes, and feel less stuck in patterns that no longer work for them. I aim to help individuals with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. I value honesty and openness in therapy and bring a warm but straightforward approach to my work. I recognize how vulnerable the therapeutic relationship can be; therefore, I strive to discuss what I notice constructively while creating space for you to be equally open with me. I see the therapeutic relationship and mutual trust as integral to creating meaningful change.

Dr. Renee Clauselle

Dr. Renee Clauselle

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


Hi! I'm Dr. Renee Clauselle. I'm a down to earth psychologist that has been in practice for over 20 years. I am passionate about my client's personal growth. My specialties include, but are not limited to treatment of anxiety, depression, life transitions, attachment styles, self worth, parenting, and more. I'm a former professor at St. John's University and a media psychologist for GMA. Check out some of my appearances on Youtube @dr.reneeclauselle1571.

I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can recognize but struggle to change, such as overthinking, repeating unhealthy relationship dynamics, difficulty regulating emotions, or feeling overwhelmed despite “knowing better.” Many have done therapy before and have insight, but want support translating that awareness into real, lasting shifts. My approach integrates psychotherapy with somatic work to help regulate and rewire the nervous system so change is not just understood but experienced. For clients who feel blocked or unable to move forward, I also offer emerging neurofeedback to support deeper brain based change and neuroplasticity. I work with diverse populations and tailor treatment to meet each client where they are while guiding them toward meaningful, sustainable growth.

Therapist

Virtual • New York


For more than 10 years, I have worked alongside people navigating serious mental health

challenges, career changes, and the everyday weight of keeping it all together. Whether

you are living with bipolar disorder, processing trauma, or figuring out your next step

professionally or personally, I bring both deep clinical training and lived perspective as a

working parent to our sessions. I would love to connect and start building something that

actually fits your life.

I received a B.A. in Psychology and an M.S. Ed. in Rehabilitation Counseling and Mental Health from Hofstra University. During my practicum and internship in a community clinic, I counseled people from 15-72 years of age with a range of mental health and vocational concerns. I developed a curriculum and led groups to build socialization skills in children ages 8-12. I also led a parenting skills group while at the clinic. As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, I worked with clients to explore career choices and assist with finding, obtaining, and keeping employment. I am also a Certified Work Incentive Practitioner, which allows me to advise public benefit beneficiaries on their entry or return to competitive employment and its effects on their benefits.
