About Dr. Berman-Brodsky
Integrative care for anxiety, OCD, and sexual health,
in a space where nothing needs to stay hidden
Dr. Sonya Berman-Brodsky is a Licensed Psychologist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist with a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Immaculata University and advanced sex therapy certification through the Sexual Health Alliance. She works with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety (including OCD and phobias), depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, life transitions, emotional regulation difficulties, and sexual health issues. She brings particular depth of experience to working with LGBTQ+ individuals and those exploring gender identity, offering care that is clinically rigorous and genuinely affirming.
Her clinical approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (including skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness), trauma-informed care, attachment theory, and psychoeducation. She has specific expertise in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD and anxiety disorders, working to interrupt and prevent the compulsive behavioral cycles that keep anxiety entrenched. She has also worked with clients navigating Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) using exposure-based approaches.
"Please don't feel the need to hold anything back, as it is all useful as I learn more about you!"
As an AASECT certified sex therapist, Dr. Berman-Brodsky brings specialized training to relationship and intimacy work and is passionate about reducing stigma around sexual health topics. She describes her educational approach as blending research-based information with accessible, engaging communication, and carries that spirit into her clinical practice. In every setting, the goal is a therapeutic environment where clients feel genuinely safe, understood, and comfortable bringing whatever is on their minds. Virtual sessions are available on Saturdays.
