I have been an LMHC since 2019. I aim to establish a therapeutic haven characterized by honesty and unwavering support. As a seasoned professional, I believe I transcend the role of a traditional therapist, serving as a strategic advisor, imparting wisdom and guidance. Clients selecting me not only benefit from therapeutic expertise but also gain a dedicated ally in their journey towards personal growth and success.

I work from a Feminist Therapy perspective, in a way that seeks to minimize the power imbalance inherent in clinical settings, centers the client’s story in our work, recognizes that the client is the expert on their own life, and helps the client identify their own sources of power. I use a mix of Acceptance & Commitment, Narrative and Existential therapy.

Hello! I am a New York State licensed Psychotherapist with over 20 years experience. I earned my Masters Social Work Degree from Fordham University in NYC. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach to highlight how negative thoughts can lead to negative feelings and actions- identifying specific problems or issues in the client's daily life. Becoming aware of unproductive thought patterns and how they can impact the client's life - identifying negative thinking and reshaping it in a way that changes how clients feel-teaching new behaviors and asking clients to put them into practice.

I work in collaboration with clients to achieve short-term goals in order to accomplish long-term goals. I am warm, genuine, positive, and engaged.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida, with additional licensure in NY and NC. I graduated from St. Lawrence University in Upstate New York and have been practicing in the field for nearly 8 years. I got my start in community outpatient mental health, where I worked with clients from all walks of life, from children as young as five to adults as old as ninety. The majority of my experience, however was working with children and families, as well as adults struggling with various mood disorders and substance use. After meeting my husband, who is currently serving active duty in the Air Force, I spent time working with military members and their families. This allowed me the opportunity to understand and relate to this community on both a personal and professional level. I love working and providing care to my military family as I understand the complexities and challenges involved in living a military lifestyle. However, in recent years, I have found myself working primarily in primary care settings (both virtually and in-person) providing care to those struggling with anxiety, depression, and comorbid chronic conditions. I have found there is immense value in treating both mind and body together for overall wellness and maintenance. I hope to help others find what is meaningful for them in their own lives while identifying their strengths, breaking down barriers, and ultimately achieving their physical and mental wellness dreams!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker with over 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, families and adults who struggle with depression, anxiety and family related stress. I collaborate with every person I meet in treatment to help increase self confidence, learn more about themselves, the root cause of their problem and promote overall wellness. I take an empathic approach to help support you throughout treatment. Soy Bilingue!

Hello, I'm Lauren! I'm so glad that you are here. You may be here to look into therapy for yourself, or for someone that you love. Maybe this is your first time looking for a therapist, or perhaps you've spoken to many therapists in the past. Wherever you're coming from today - just know that therapy is a wonderful gift you can give to yourself at any time in your life. You can't be "too bad" or "too good" to enter therapy.

My work as a therapist has been guided my own personal experience as a human being. The strategies I will work on with you are strategies I practice with myself day-in and day-out. ​I have advanced education and experience working with adults and caregivers facing serious illness, navigating complex healthcare systems and supporting caregivers as they walk alongside their loved ones.
