Hallie Boas, LMHC, MA, MA EMDR and IFS Individual, Couples & Family Therapy for Therapists, Parents, Creatives, and Activists

In-Person NYC and Virtual

I’m a trauma therapist licensed in NY with 10+ years of clinical practice.

I support individuals, couples, and families in healing from personal and collective trauma and the emotional toll of living in complex social and political times.

I love working with with fellow therapists, activists, parents, creatives, and helping professionals who want to heal from overwhelming experiences, feel more alive again, and strengthen relationships with themselves and others.

My Approach Combines:

EMDR Therapy
A powerful method for processing trauma and reducing emotional triggers.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)
A compassionate way to understand different parts of yourself.

Somatic & Mindfulness Practices
Tools that help your nervous system feel safe again.

My Professional Background:

• Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), New York

• Internal Family Systems (IFS) Level 1 Trained
• MA Counseling Psychology – Boston College
• MA Sociocultural Anthropology – University of Texas at Austin

  • Who I Work With

    I particularly enjoy working with therapists in training and early career therapists. Most recently, becoming a mother and parenting young children, has deepened my understanding of life’s transitions, the rhythms of caregiving, and the shifting layers of identity. I love working with activists and organizers, artists, healers, and the LGBTQIPA2S+ community.

  • What I Do

    I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, C-PTSD, PTSD, dissociation, couples and relationships, queer invisibility, parent/child adult relationships, climate anxiety, and managing neurodiversity. I love working with activists and organizers, artists, healers/therapists, and the LGBTQIA+ community. I am sex and body positive and strive to create an anti-oppressive, non-judgemental space.

  • How I Do It

    I’m EMDR certified and IFS Level 1 trained and EMDR trained clinician and draw from psychodynamic therapy, feminist therapy, family therapy, and mindfulness and somatic modalities in my work. In addition to my clinical training, I am a certified yoga and meditation instructor.
