I’m a licensed clinical social worker who believes therapy should feel grounding, human, and intentional. My work is rooted in the understanding that many people are not broken—they are overwhelmed, overextended, and disconnected from themselves after years of doing what was required to survive. I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and respect for each client’s lived experience. I don’t rush the process or impose quick fixes. Instead, I create space for reflection, emotional awareness, and nervous system regulation so clients can better understand themselves and make changes that feel sustainable and aligned. As a therapist, I value honesty, clarity, and compassion. I balance thoughtful insight with practical tools, helping clients not only gain awareness but also apply what they’re learning in real life. I’m especially mindful of how culture, identity, relationships, and systemic stressors shape the way people move through the world. At my core, I believe calm is not something you find—it’s something you practice. My role is to walk alongside you as you reconnect with yourself, strengthen your inner voice, and build a life that feels more grounded, intentional, and authentic.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I received my Masters in Social Work from Fordham University in NYC. I work with adults who are currently experiencing depression and/or anxiety to help them discover the root of their concerns so that they can become the best versions of themselves. Since every individual is so unique, I use an individualized approach in talk therapy to help you overcome your challenges by gaining new coping skills and new ways to think about your situation.

I am a License Mental Health Counselor in New York and Florida that works with marital counseling clients and those experiencing relationship issues and who are struggling with their sense of self confidence. My ideal client is someone who is committed to the process of self-introspection and wants to be held accountable to reach their goals. I specialize in counseling women and men on self-esteem, worth & actualization. I also support clients affected by bullying, narcissistic abuse as well as those dealing with complicated grief. As your therapist, I will assist you in discovering or uncovering yourself. This might mean realizing some difficult truths about your personality and behavior patterns, tapping into your strengths, and identifying what coping skills work for you. Or, it might mean working through emotional pain, trauma, or barriers that prevent you from being your best self. In my years of experience, I have found that once a person’s authentic identity has been discovered through therapy, clients can accept who they are, confidently speak up for themselves and understand themselves with greater perspective. Usually this leads to healthier relationship choices and dynamics. I will help you to learn more about yourself and make realistic changes.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 30 years of experience helping individuals heal relationships with themselves, others, and the world around them. My approach is client-centered and integrative, combining evidence-based methods like cognitive-behavioral therapy and structural family therapy with tools inspired by Jungian psychology and the Medicine Wheel. I create a safe and compassionate space for clients to explore their inner world, address emotional pain, and find clarity in their relationships. Together, we work to uncover new perspectives, foster resilience, and create meaningful, transformative change. What I do not treat: Addiction Active substance use greatly limits the effectiveness and safety of therapeutic work. I do not provide treatment for active addiction. If addiction is present, I gently encourage clients to begin specialized substance-use treatment first, so they can receive the focused care they deserve. Once stability in recovery is established, I am glad to collaborate as part of a team and support the deeper work of trauma healing, attachment, and relationships.

My name is Wendy Green, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York. I work with adults, supporting them through a wide range of challenges including anxiety, relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns, and women’s issues. I believe therapy should be a safe and supportive space where you feel heard and understood. My approach is flexible and guided by your unique needs. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. In practice, this means we’ll work together to explore your experiences, identify unhelpful patterns, and find practical strategies that support your growth and well-being.

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 Golden Rule?

Yes! If you use Golden Rule you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Golden Rule 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 to expect during your first 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.
