Betty Gulko — Integrative Therapist

Hi, I'm Betty

Integrative Therapist

in New York City

I work with pre-teens, teens, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, stress, and life transitions. My approach is integrative and evidence-based — drawing from CBT, DBT, and mindfulness — held within a framework of genuine warmth and human connection.

I believe healing is not linear. My role is to offer a space where you can slow down, reflect honestly, and begin to understand yourself more fully — without judgment, and without rushing toward a predetermined outcome.

Therapy services are provided through my affiliated practice, Evolve Integrative Therapy. I also speak publicly on mental health and host the podcast Chat With Betty.

The Journey

How the Work Unfolds

01

Shifting Perspective

Gently examine the thoughts and patterns that no longer serve you, and begin to relate to yourself with more clarity and compassion.

02

Cultivating Confidence

Build a quieter, more grounded sense of self-trust — one that comes from within rather than from external validation.

03

Going Deeper

Explore the emotional roots of your experience with curiosity, care, and a willingness to understand yourself more fully.

04

Creating New Patterns

Develop healthier ways of thinking, relating, and living — at a pace that feels sustainable and true to who you are.
