Hi, I’m Asma Alqahtani, a clinical social worker and mother. I immigrated to the United States from the Middle East, and my personal experiences have shaped the way I connect with and support others. I have been working in social work since 2017, with experience supporting children, families, and adults, particularly individuals navigating substance use and other life challenges. My approach to therapy is compassionate, supportive, and practical. I believe therapy is not only about talking through challenges, but also about understanding yourself, developing new skills, and applying those tools in everyday life. I meet my clients where they are while also encouraging growth, accountability, and meaningful change. I enjoy working with clients who are open to self-reflection and willing to take an active role in their healing and personal development. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself, while also helping you identify patterns, build on your strengths, and work toward the life you want. As a mother and an immigrant, I understand that life can come with unique transitions, responsibilities, and challenges. I bring empathy, cultural awareness, and real-life perspective into my work with each client. Whether you are struggling with relationships, substance use, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to help you move forward at your own pace.

Hello, and welcome. Are you feeling pulled in many directions? Does life feel overwhelming, leaving you unsure of where to begin? When stress, anxiety, life changes, or relationship challenges become too much to carry alone, it's easy to feel stuck. You don't have to navigate those moments by yourself. My name is Anacaona Antoine, though I go by my middle name, Nedgé. For more than 13 years, I have had the privilege of helping children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families work through life's challenges while discovering their own resilience and strengths. My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution-focused. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are without judgment and partnering with you to help you get where you want to be. Together, we'll explore the patterns, thoughts, and experiences that may be holding you back while building practical tools to help you move forward. Sometimes meaningful change begins with a small shift in perspective, greater self-compassion, or learning new ways to respond to life's challenges. Because every person is unique, I tailor therapy to fit your individual needs. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), strengths-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness practices. Depending on your goals, our work may also include breathing exercises, meditation, movement, creative interventions, and other techniques that support healing and personal growth. I believe therapy is a partnership. My role is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, challenged, and empowered to grow. Together, we can build on your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and help you create the life and relationships you want. Taking the first step can be the hardest part, but you don't have to do it alone. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your journey.

I believe that meaningful growth happens when clients are met where they are, with empathy and respect, and I work diligently to support that process.

I believe meaningful healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood—without judgment or pressure to be anyone other than yourself. I work with individuals who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, stuck in familiar patterns, or as though they are constantly trying to navigate a world that was not designed with their needs in mind. This may include living with the effects of trauma, the daily “static” of ADHD, persistent anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or emotional exhaustion.

Hi, I’m Josh Burke, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing therapy across, Colorado, New York and Vermont. I’ve spent over 12 years working with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and major life transitions. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable. Because of that, I place a strong emphasis on building a genuine, trusting relationship from the start—one where you feel supported, understood, and able to be honest about what you’re going through. My approach is both relational and goal-oriented. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), which means we won’t just talk about what’s wrong—we’ll also focus on what matters to you and how to move toward it in practical, meaningful ways. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or navigating a significant transition, our work will center on helping you better understand your experience, develop new ways of responding to stress, and take steps toward the life you want to live. I tailor therapy to each person, recognizing that no two paths forward look the same.

Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I’m a New York-based therapist (BSW/MSW from Syracuse University) with a decade of experience, and the founder of the Clinically Petty brand. What does Clinically Petty mean? It means we take your healing seriously, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. It’s about creating a safe, virtual space where you can validate the small stuff, call out the absurdities of life, and ditch the pressure to perform or "be perfect." My practice is built for anyone who has ever felt "othered"—especially folks in the LGBTQ+ community, those exploring alternative relationship styles, neurodivergent individuals, and anyone living with trauma or anxiety. I don't sit back, nod silently, or hide behind clinical jargon. I combine evidence-based tools (like CBT, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing) with real human connection, sharp humor, and zero judgment. We won't just analyze why you're stuck—we'll work as a team to help you break free from societal labels and build a life that feels safe, balanced, and unapologetically yours. My Philosophy: "Healed doesn't mean flawless—it just means you're wise enough to set your boundaries, laugh at the chaos, and protect your peace at all costs."

For the past 17 years, I have had the privilege of helping people navigate the complicated, messy, and often deeply meaningful work of understanding themselves. I believe therapy can be a place to slow down-to step outside of the noise and begin taking a more examined look at your life, your patterns, your relationships and the choices you've been making. My approach is grounded in the belief that our minds and nervous system are constantly trying to protect us. Many of the patterns that can leave us feeling stuck, anxious, disconnected or overwhelmed once served an important purpose. I am interested in helping you understand why these patterns developed, what they may be trying to communicate and whether they still serve you in the life you're living now. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and mindfulness practices. I don't believe there is one right way to do therapy, so our work will be collaborative and tailored to you.

Spirituality
I began my career working in family crisis services, including child protection and foster care. I’ve also supported individuals with disabilities and provided career guidance through my work with the state. While these experiences have shaped my approach, individual and group counseling are truly where I feel most passionate and effective. I am a Christian and draw strength from my faith. For clients who would like to incorporate spirituality into our work, I am happy to do so. At the same time, I fully respect and support clients who prefer a non-spiritual approach—your comfort and goals guide the process.
