THerapy Services

In response to COVID-19, as of March 2020, all of my services, including therapy, are now being offered virtually. For remote therapy ("teletherapy"), I utilize a fully encrypted HIPAA-compliant video platform for sessions.  

Patients will have the option to shift to in-person sessions at my Midtown Mahnhattan office in 2021, dependent on public health indicators.

Contact me at kbarrow@criticaltherapy.org for more information. 


Are you feeling disconnected from your authentic self, struggling with the same relationship conflicts over and over, or overwhelmed by endless microaggressions? I am here to support you through the individual and systems-level challenges in your life. Together we will explore new ways of being in relationship with others and deepen your connection to yourself.

I am part of the Critical Therapy Center, a liberation-oriented psychodynamic group practice based in Midtown Manhattan. I work with adolescents and adults, specializing in LGBTQAI+ teens. I have extensive practice working with anxiety, chronic and invisible illnesses, substance use, and trauma. My work centers identity, including race, class, gender, and sexual orientation. 

I also specialize in supporting clinicians and social workers who are looking for their own therapy.  I have extensive experience with healing
vicarious trauma, burnout, and the effects of workplace trauma (eg. patient loss, or workplace violence). 

About Working Together

All of my fees are based on a sliding scale in order to work with a range of people, including a limited number of deeply discounted low-income slots. Because I am an out of network therapist, you may be eligible for reimbursement for some portion of my fees. I can help you determine what your coverage entitles you to.

Approach & Background
My practice interweaves a background in contemplative psychology and mindfulness with nearly two decades of social justice activism.
Healing as individuals requires spaces to heal from the trauma of structural oppression and dominance, so I center anti-racist/anti-oppressive, LGBTQAI+-affirming, and feminist values in all of my work. My style as a therapist is warm and challenging, compassionate and direct. 

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). This means that I completed two years of graduate studies in clinical social work and over 1000 hours of practice as a student intern. After graduating I completed over 2000 hours of supervised clinical practice, and passed two state board examinations in New York. As an LCSW, I am licensed to provide a range of mental health services, including  counseling, treatment, assessments, and diagnosis. I am not licensed to prescribe medication (only psychiatrists and doctors can do this), but I can make referrals for medication-related treatment as needed.
