Therapists that accept Cash Pay in New York

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides a supportive, collaborative space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves. My approach is practical and individualized, with a focus on understanding patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, relationship concerns, and emotional regulation challenges.

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.

I believe that seeking therapy is one of the most courageous things a person can do. It takes strength to acknowledge that something isn't working and to ask for support in making a change. My approach to therapy is straightforward: I'm here to listen, understand, and work alongside you as you navigate whatever challenges you're facing. Whether you're dealing with anxiety that's affecting your daily life, feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or going through a major life transition, my goal is to help you develop the tools and insights you need to move forward.

As a therapist, I bring warmth, empathy, curiosity, and a genuine interest in understanding each person's unique journey. Everyone has a story that deserves to be heard, understood, and respected without judgment or assumptions. Authentic human connection is at the heart of my approach, and meaningful change begins when we feel safe enough to be open, vulnerable, and truly ourselves. Above all, creating a space where clients feel seen, heard, accepted, and supported is essential. Therapy is not about changing who you are, but about developing a deeper understanding of yourself, recognizing your strengths and potential, and discovering new ways to navigate life's challenges. My hope is that through this process, clients feel empowered to embrace who they are and create a life that feels more authentic, balanced, and fulfilling.

Whether you’re managing ADHD, anxiety, depression, navigating life transitions, or working on relationships and personal growth, therapy can be a place to feel supported, understood, and gently challenged to make meaningful changes.

I work with you to shift what’s not helping, find practical tools, and provide a space where you can be understood without judgment. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating. I want to provide a space for relief, growth, and change. If you’re ready to take the first step, I’d be honored to walk with you. There’s no perfect time to start, just the right time for you.

Dr. Kyana Hall-Toney, DMFT, LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy. She is a compassionate, dedicated, and client-centered clinician who believes that every individual has a unique story, life experience, and purpose that contribute to who they are and who they aspire to become. Throughout her clinical career, Dr. Kyana has gained experience working with diverse populations, including individuals and families impacted by domestic violence, substance use disorders, and adolescents involved in diversion programs. She has also worked with families within Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) treatment settings and has provided individual, couples, and family therapy in a private practice setting. Her clinical experience has allowed her to develop an understanding of the complex relationships between individual experiences, family dynamics, interpersonal relationships, and environmental influences. Dr. Kyana’s therapeutic approach is grounded in Family Systems, Person-Centered, Narrative, and Solution-Focused therapies. She recognizes that our personal experiences, relationships, family histories, and life circumstances often influence the way we view ourselves, navigate relationships, and respond to challenges. Rather than defining individuals by their past experiences or present circumstances, she believes in recognizing their strengths, resilience, and capacity for change. Her approach to therapy emphasizes creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences. She collaborates with clients to identify their needs, establish meaningful goals, develop healthy coping strategies, strengthen relationships, and create positive changes. Dr. Kyana believes that healing is not a one-size-fits-all journey.
