I am Kyra Alston, a LMHC who has been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I have worked in many settings of the field, but find my most enjoyment has been in working with mothers and women's mental health challenges. Some of my most rewarding work has been helping my client feel like themselves again, tap back into their passion, their interests, their goals, and ultimately, getting to a point where they don't need me anymore. This includes goals such as enjoying their life more overall, changing patterns of interpersonal relationships, and feeling less weighed down by depression and anxiety, social climate, motherhood, all the things.

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.

I have been working as a independent licensed clinical psychologist since 2023 and prior to that under the supervision of various clinical psychologist across the 7 years of my training. I knew from a young age I wanted to be not just in the mental health field but specifically to be a psychologist. I have always felt that the mind is one of the most misunderstood parts of our experience. The mind is wonderfully complicated and mysterious, it is also lazy, pattern seeking, and routinely predictable. I believe the biggest complexities and issues we face in life are not due to a misunderstanding of our thoughts, beliefs, past experiences, or ideas of the future. I fully believe people mostly need encouragement and safety to be able to be their best selves. I have found through my personal and professional experiences life is inherently messy and often unforgiving and it was through the kindness and patience of others that I've or others have been able to improve or heal.

Hi, I’m Catherine! I'm the kind of therapist that feels like talking with a friend. It's important to me that therapy doesn't feel too intimidating or scary - I want you to feel safe, supported, and understood while doing challenging yet rewarding work. My approach is using the lens of Polyvagal Theory, which means I focus on your nervous system and help you understand the different states of your nervous system and how to interpret the signals your body sends you to then meet your emotional and psychology needs. I also use person-in-environment (PIE) where we will look at how the environments you are exposed to play a role in your mental and emotional state because a lot of what we humans experience is appropriate responses to things we experience - therapy with me is learning how to move through those responses. A lot of the work is about finding safety within your body and gaining confidence by aligning with who you truly are. I’m originally from Nashville but now call New York City home. When I’m not with clients, I’m usually reading, wandering around the city, or at a Yankees game. And on occasion, my cats will join our sessions!

I offer a warm, non‑judgmental space where you can slow down, breathe, and explore what’s really happening beneath the surface. My approach is deeply trauma‑informed and grounded in the belief that healing happens at your pace, with safety and connection at the center. I support adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, low self‑esteem, caregiver burnout, and the emotional weight of complex family systems. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from an integrative blend of EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, polyvagal‑informed work, CBT, and DBT. This flexibility allows us to work with both the mind and the body, helping you build grounding, resilience, and a deeper sense of self‑trust. Living with CPTSD myself, I understand how essential it is to feel truly seen and supported in therapy. I bring experience from inpatient psychiatric settings, where I worked with individuals facing acute mental health challenges and crisis situations. I’m especially passionate about supporting caregivers and those who tend to everyone else before themselves. My goal is to help you feel more empowered, more connected to yourself, and more able to imagine what’s possible for your life. **Established Clients: If you don't see availability on my schedule, feel free to reach out to me to schedule.
