Therapists in New York

Maybe your mind feels like it never shuts off—overthinking, worrying, or constantly feeling on edge. Or maybe it’s the opposite... feeling low, unmotivated, or disconnected from yourself in a way that’s hard to explain. Some days feel heavy, and even simple things take more effort than they used to. You may also be carrying grief—whether from a loss, a life change, or something that didn’t turn out the way you hoped.

This may include living with the effects of trauma, the daily “static” of ADHD, persistent anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or emotional exhaustion.

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.

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 specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety and anxiety. I help others navigate interpersonal conflicts, support parents through the challenges of parenting, and assist couples in strengthening their relationships.

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 draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and mindfulness practices.

Hello, I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Albany University in New York and have been practicing for over 12 years. Some of the best experience as a therapist have been working with teens, young adults, parents, and the queer community - sometimes these "population" overlap of course; I love working with people seeking to bring their various histories, and identities into cohesion.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience supporting individuals across the lifespan, including adolescents, adults, couples, families, and older adults. I specialize in helping clients who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and life transitions, and who are seeking both relief and deeper understanding of themselves. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and easy to talk to, while also thoughtful and direct when helping them identify patterns that may be keeping them stuck. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, with a strong focus on helping clients feel emotionally safe while also gently encouraging insight, reflection, and meaningful change. In my work, I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, trauma-informed care, and psychodynamic principles. This allows me to support both present-day symptom relief and deeper exploration of long-standing emotional and relational patterns. My clinical background includes many years of work in community mental health in New York City, where I provided care to diverse and underserved populations. I also have experience in inpatient psychiatric settings supporting individuals during acute crises, as well as involvement in psychiatric research, which strengthened my foundation in evidence-based and clinically grounded care. At the core of my work is the belief that people are not defined by their symptoms or their past experiences. Instead, therapy is a space to better understand yourself, shift long-standing patterns, and build a more grounded, connected and intentional life.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University in 2014 and have spent over a decade working across NYC supporting individuals through life’s toughest moments—from managing anxiety and trauma to navigating chronic illness, grief, and family dynamics. As a biracial woman of Southeast Asian heritage, I am deeply passionate about cultural humility, social justice, and inclusive care. I honor the rich, complex backgrounds that make you who you are, and I craft care that reflects your unique identity and values

There is a moment in every person’s story when something says, “I can’t keep doing this the same way.” That moment matters. It may be quiet, messy, unexpected, or long overdue—but it can also be the beginning of something different. After more than 20 years in behavioral health and over 11 years as a clinician, I’ve learned that therapy is not about having all the answers. It’s about having a place to stop, breathe, tell the truth about where you are, and discover where you want to go next.

Hi, I’m Sam! I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who believes therapy should feel safe, supportive, and human — not intimidating or overly clinical. I work collaboratively with clients using evidence-based approaches to help navigate anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and those moments when you just feel stuck or disconnected from yourself. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are, feel understood, and start making meaningful, sustainable changes.

I consider myself a direct and collaborative therapist. My style centers on active listening, practical tools you can use to cope outside of sessions, and respect for your personal story. I will always come from a place of open mindedness while providing honest feedback and compassionate guidance. My goal is to create a space in which you feel understood and comfortable enough to be honest.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist working with adults who may appear high-functioning on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally unsettled beneath the surface. Many of the individuals I work with are navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, self-doubt, or persistent patterns they can’t quite untangle on their own. My style is thoughtful, steady, and insight-oriented. I integrate practical tools for emotional regulation with deeper exploration of relational patterns and attachment dynamics. I believe therapy should feel both grounding and meaningful — a place where you can slow down, understand yourself more clearly, and begin shifting patterns that no longer serve you. Clients often describe me as calm, direct, and attuned. I aim to create a space that feels safe enough for honesty and structured enough for real change. My work focuses not only on reducing symptoms, but on building emotional clarity, stability, and more secure ways of relating — to others and to yourself.

Hey! I'm Shay and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York , Florida, Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I was born and raised in NYC. I serve individuals and couples between the ages of 18-60 who struggle with communication skills, boundary settings, family and relationship challenges among other challenges who are ready and willing to begin their healing journey. I work with people who feel stuck in their own mind—overthinking, second-guessing, or constantly on edge. If you’re dealing with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or OCD patterns, you might already know how exhausting it can be to try to “logic” your way out of it and still feel out of control. That’s where we take a different approach. I specialize in treating anxiety and OCD using evidence-based approaches like ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), helping you gradually face fears in a way that actually reduces their power over time. I also work with high-functioning professionals and military members who are used to pushing through—but are now feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or disconnected. My style is direct, supportive, and real. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods—I’ll help you understand what’s happening and give you tools that actually make a difference. If you’re ready to feel more in control and less stuck, we can start there.

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “I just need someone to truly listen”? Every voice matters from the quietest, most silenced parts of you to the loudest thoughts that won’t seem to settle. If you’re looking for a space where you can speak freely, without judgment, and feel genuinely heard, I would be honored to be that person for you. Sometimes it helps to talk with someone outside of family or friends someone whose role is simply to support, understand, and walk alongside you.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably carrying something heavy — and you may have been carrying it longer than you should have had to. I’m glad you’re here. I’m an LMFT licensed in both New York and New Jersey, and I work with adults who are navigating some of life’s most emotionally demanding seasons: parenting stress, relationship strain, depression, ADHD, and the kind of high-functioning exhaustion that doesn’t always look like struggle from the outside but absolutely feels like it. My approach is relational at its core. I believe that healing rarely happens in isolation — it happens in connection. Before any technique or homework assignment, I prioritize building a therapeutic relationship where you actually feel safe enough to be honest. That foundation isn’t just good therapy etiquette; it’s what makes everything else possible. From there, I draw on a range of evidence-based frameworks — attachment theory, CBT, DBT, and person-centered approaches — tailoring the work to what you specifically need rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Some clients need tools and structure. Others need space to process and be witnessed. Most need both, at different moments. I’ve worked with many people who came to therapy after putting it off for a long time — sometimes years. What kept them away was often fear: fear of judgment, fear of being misunderstood, or simply not knowing what therapy was supposed to feel like. I take that seriously. My goal from the very first session is to help you feel less alone in what you’re facing, and more capable of moving through it. You don’t have to have it figured out before you reach out. That’s what we’re here to do together.

A person losing their sense of autonomy and self always left me with that question, "Can I do more?" In my journey as a provider, I want to uplift my clients and remind them they have always had a voice and power that is waiting.
