Tarynn Dier

 

Hi, I’m Tarynn Dier. I’m a licensed therapist, coach, and consultant based in New York City — but I work with clients all over the world.
My clients are smart, self-aware, and often the ones other people rely on. They're founders, creatives, caregivers, organizers, doers. Many are queer. Some are polyamorous or in open relationships. Most are exhausted. Almost all are holding things no one sees — perfectionism, emotional paralysis, shame, self-doubt, loneliness, or a kind of numbness they can’t quite name.
They come to me because they’re not interested in surface-level fixes. They want to understand themselves. They want tools. They want change. And they want someone who can *actually hold the complexity* of their life.

My Approach:
I’m not a blank slate therapist. I’m warm, curious, collaborative, and direct when it matters.
Our work might include:
• Internal Family Systems (IFS)
• Somatic work
• Psychodynamic therapy
• Cognitive work & coaching

Why I Do This Work:
Like a lot of therapists, I got into this field because I needed this kind of support myself.
I’ve lived through reinventions — in identity, relationships, career, and motherhood.
This work isn’t just a job for me. It’s a way of life. It’s an act of service, creativity, and truth-telling.

What I Believe:
• There’s no one right way to live, love, or heal.
• Insight doesn’t always equal change.
• Therapy should feel human, not clinical.
• You deserve a space where you don’t have to translate yourself.

Credentials:
• Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), NY & FL
• 9+ years experience
• Trained in IFS, EFT, somatics, psychodynamic therapy, CBT
• Featured in Men’s Health, Women’s Health, and LGBTQIA+ media

I offer a warm, affirming space where LGBTQ+ individuals can feel safe exploring who they are and what they need. I understand how complex it can be to navigate identity, relationships, and the weight of other people’s expectations while trying to care for yourself. My work is grounded in respect, cultural humility, and the belief that everyone deserves to be fully seen and supported. In our work together, we might explore topics like self-acceptance, family and relationship dynamics, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. I draw from evidence-based approaches through a trauma-informed lens, but always center your voice and lived experience. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, and build a stronger sense of self and safety in the world.

Hi, I’m Vee — a Holistic Psychotherapist with personal connection to the HSP, Empath, Poly/ENM, Spiritual, Queer, Neurodivergent, & Kink/BDSM communities.

What I Do:
I combine Somatic, Cognitive, & Energy Psychology therapy modalities to support your empowerment, healing, rapid transformation, insight, & post-traumatic growth. I know how painful it can be to feel unseen or misunderstood, especially when seeking help. My work is warm, relational, human, compassionate, & trauma-informed. I listen for what lives beneath your words — tracking the wisdom of your body & spirit. I'm here to help you align with your values, claim your power, speak your truth, & connect to your body, your self, & others. You can always count on me to attune to you & reflect back what I see, & to call on your strengths, desires, & creativity.

My Philosophy:
I believe unresolved trauma is at the root of most imbalance & I never seek to pathologize anyone's being. Every behavior represents an unmet need & I’m committed to helping my clients determine what that need is & how to meet it. Every part of a person exists for a reason & is worthy of love.

My Style:
As a therapist, I'm genuine & happy to meet you human-to-human. I believe I may be the most open-minded therapist you'll ever meet & that laughter is one of the best medicines. (My clients even chuckle sometimes as we process triggers!) For transformational work, I'm a strong match for people ready to take the leap, commit, do homework between sessions, & hold their feet to the fires of the process- even when it's uncomfortable. I'll illuminate doorways you can choose to step through, & I'll stay by your side & on your team to support you through it all. 

While I can be directive & serve as a strong guide for the work, I'm typically client-led, collaborative, warm, & encouraging. I've held space for people in some of their deepest, darkest, most vulnerable expressions & would be honored to meet you too with care, wherever you are now in your expression of aliveness & humanity.
