Transformative
therapy for MODERN lives

Gylian’s warm and empathetic personality makes her the type of therapist who believes deeply in the power of connection and the importance of feeling truly seen. As a graduate student at NYU’s Silver School of Social Work, she is part of Downtown Behavioral Wellness’s Clinical Resident program and brings a thoughtful, compassionate presence to every session. With Gylian, clients find a supportive space where they can show up exactly as they are and feel guided toward greater clarity, resilience, and self-understanding.

Gylian works with young professionals and people navigating times of transition to make those changes feel more manageable without the overwhelm. Whether supporting those with anxiety, depression, academic stress, identity exploration, or family and peer challenges, Gylian’s therapeutic approach is rooted in patience, respect, and genuine care. She also supports those with behavioral challenges, including ADHD and ODD, helping them build coping strategies and a stronger sense of agency.

Beyond her client work, Gylian contributed to suicide prevention research at the New York State Psychiatric Institute under the mentorship of Dr. Kelly Posner Gerstenhaber. This experience expanded her expertise in crisis intervention and deepened her knowledge of evidence-based practices in suicide risk assessment and prevention.

Gylian’s therapeutic style is collaborative and strengths-based. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to create a flexible and integrative approach tailored to each client’s unique needs. Most importantly, she meets clients where they are, offering a balance of support and encouragement that fosters growth, emotional regulation, and confidence.
Clients often describe Gylian as someone who makes them feel understood, supported, and empowered to take steps toward meaningful change. With her warm presence and thoughtful guidance, Gylian helps clients navigate life’s challenges and discover their capacity for resilience and self-discovery.
