I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who works with adolescents and Latinx young adults in NYC navigating anxiety, depression, and big life transitions—especially when family expectations, cultural values, and personal needs feel hard to balance. Many of the people I work with are used to being the responsible one, the strong one, or the one who’s “doing fine” on the outside, while feeling overwhelmed or stuck on the inside. Sometimes feeling torn between who they are and who they’re expected to be. Therapy can be a space where you don’t have to hold it all together or explain yourself. Its a space where you can slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and start taking care of yourself without guilt. I already understand how much culture and family can shape what you’re carrying. I bring over six years of experience into my work, but what matters most to me is creating a genuine, supportive connection. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, and I move at your pace. Together, we work on understanding your emotions, building healthier coping skills, and helping you feel more confident and grounded in who you are and where you’re going.

Hi, I’m Amanda, a licensed clinical social worker. I work with adults and young adults who are feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel aligned with who they want to be. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or just feeling disconnected from yourself, my goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and supported. I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach to therapy. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and develop practical tools to help you manage stress, regulate emotions, and make choices that align with your values. I understand that life can feel overwhelming, and I’m here to help you navigate difficult emotions, gain clarity, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. If you’re looking for support to process past experiences, cope with current challenges, or prepare for life transitions—like becoming a parent or navigating changes in your relationships—I can help you take the steps to feel more in control, resilient, and connected. You don’t have to face this alone, and it’s never too late to start prioritizing your well-being.

In addition to a Forensic Mental Health Counseling background, I am also certified clinical trauma professional and ADHD-certified clinical services provider.

Psychotherapy as a vocation called me in my early 30s - a paradigm shift, resulting from a series of personal breakdowns, breakthroughs, and ultimately, personal discovery. Guided by caring therapists into a new, integrated sense of self, I realigned my passions and skills with a life purpose. In preceding Life's chapter, I studied art and design in college, and for years apprenticed under my father - the Architect, as it was decided I am to follow in his footsteps. Wanting to please, I indeed followed, yet uncovered greater fulfillment exploring the architecture of the human psyche and mind. Having painstakingly changed course, my gratitude never expired and only keeps me inspired to provide support to others.

Hi, I’m Ashley, a licensed mental health counselor who works with overwhelmed parents navigating anxiety, burnout, and the emotional weight of raising young children. Many of the parents I work with feel like their nervous system is constantly “on.” By the end of the day, you might feel overstimulated by noise, exhausted from being needed all day, and mentally drained from carrying the invisible load of parenting, work, and relationships. You may even find yourself wondering, “What happened to me?” You’re not broken—and you’re not alone in this. Therapy with me is a space to slow things down and finally exhale. Together, we focus on practical, realistic tools to help you: -Feel calmer and less reactive throughout the day -Manage overwhelm without shutting down or snapping -Create more balance between caring for others and caring for yourself -Reconnect with who you are outside of being “mom or dad” I often support parents who are experiencing: -Anxiety and constant mental load -Parenting burnout and overwhelm -Feeling overstimulated or “touched out” -Life and identity shifts after having children -Emotional regulation challenges My approach blends evidence-based strategies like DBT skills with nervous system regulation and practical tools you can actually use in your real, everyday life. As a parent myself, I understand how intense this season can be. You don’t have to keep pushing through it alone.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker helping high-functioning individuals who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and urges or patterns that feel difficult to control. On the outside, many of my clients appear successful, capable, and put together, yet internally they feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. You may find yourself overthinking, second-guessing decisions, or managing behaviors that create stress in your relationships or daily life. I specialize in working with individuals who are ready to move beyond surface-level conversations and are looking for real, lasting change. This includes those navigating emotional intensity, impulsivity, compulsive patterns, or internal conflict between who they are and how they are showing up. My approach is structured, direct, and results-focused, designed to help you gain clarity, improve emotional control, and develop a stronger sense of self. In our work together, we will identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, understand the underlying drivers behind your thoughts and behaviors, and implement practical strategies to help you regain control and move forward. This is not passive therapy. It is an active, collaborative process focused on insight, accountability, and meaningful progress. Many clients begin to experience increased awareness, stability, and confidence as they learn how to navigate their thoughts, emotions, and relationships more effectively. If you are ready to better understand yourself, take control of patterns that no longer serve you, and create lasting change, this work is designed to support you.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New York rather than a city like New York City?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New York. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New York from Buffalo to Rochester! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New York.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
