Phoebe Temkin, LMSW

Brooklyn & Online

I believe that by deepening self-awareness, we grant ourselves the freedom to make choices that lead to meaningful change.

Phoebe (she/her) is committed to the transformative power of insight into one's patterns and internal narratives. Her therapeutic approach is psychodynamic and rooted in fostering self-awareness to promote agency and growth. Many arrive to therapy without the exact words for what is troubling them. Phoebe offers a nonjudgmental space for exploration without the pressure of immediate clarity and encourages a focus on the often unspoken or unheard aspects of our experiences. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, Phoebe aims to empower her clients in developing a strong and authentic sense of self as they navigate life's inevitable uncertainties and ambiguities.

Phoebe's background working with young adults and college students in university settings has lent her valuable experience with those undergoing a variety of life transitions. She holds an MSW from Hunter College and a BA in Liberal Arts from Sarah Lawrence College.
