Creative Arts Therapist | Brooklyn, NY

Irene Maropakis

Creative Arts Therapist -

I specialize in working with creative highly sensitive people who deal with depression and anxiety. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, feminist, sex-positive, and work from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, multiculturally sensitive, & intersectional approach towards holistic embodied healing and life empowerment. Together we will process your experiences, change unhelpful narratives, and develop harmony and balance within yourself. I work as witness in helping you develop a more nuanced inner dialogue to move from a place of confusion and disconnection towards self-compassion and healing.
I believe that the body and mind inform each other and emotions serve as invitations to dialogue with deeper parts of yourself. I’ll offer gentle (but firm) nudges to explore whatever it is you’re going through, all at your pace, with the respect and sensitivity you deserve.
I’m a first-gen Greek-American child of immigrants and an HSP Bisexual Woman. My lived experience of disordered eating, depression and anxiety has taught me how to cultivate radical self-acceptance which I share with my clients. I provide the compassionate space for you as you unfold your story. My goal is for you to be kind to yourself in an unkind world.
