Cigna Therapists in New York

I am a compassionate and dedicated mental health counselor committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges while building resilience, clarity, and emotional well-being. I believe that seeking support is a courageous step, and I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. My goal is to help individuals explore their experiences, process difficult emotions, and develop meaningful strategies for growth and healing. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and client-centered, grounded in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I work with clients to understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while helping them build practical coping skills to manage stress, regulate emotions, and improve relationships. I believe therapy should not only offer insight but also provide tools that clients can use in their everyday lives. I have a strong interest in supporting individuals who are navigating trauma, stress, and major life transitions. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about how to move forward. Together, we work to identify patterns that may be contributing to distress while strengthening self-awareness, confidence, and healthy coping strategies. I am particularly passionate about supporting individuals who have spent much of their lives being strong for others. Therapy can be a place where those burdens are acknowledged and explored without judgment. My goal is to empower clients to better understand themselves, develop resilience, and move toward a life that feels more balanced, purposeful, and aligned with their values.

Whether you're a parent navigating the challenges of raising children, a young adult finding your footing, a high achieving experiencing nervous system dysregulation or a family seeking stronger connections — there's a place for you here.

Whether you're navigating everyday stress or life's bigger challenges, I'm here to help you find your footing and reconnect with your own strength.

Hello, I'm Tegan! I’m a clinical psychologist living in Virginia with my husband, three children, and two labradors. Thanks for checking out my profile. Below you'll find a bit about my work experience and how it shapes what I do in sessions: Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including community mental health centers, schools, Probate and Family Court, and private practice. Working in these different environments has helped me understand the bigger picture of how family, school, and other systems can affect a person’s well-being. I enjoy working with people of all ages, but I have a particular interest in working with infants and young children. Being a parent myself has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges and joys that come with raising children, and it helps me connect with both kids and their parents. I also have experience conducting psychological evaluations, which has given me a strong understanding of the testing process, learning disabilities, and the Special Education system. My experience conducting Autism evaluations has also helped me better understand and support neurodivergent individuals and appreciate the different ways people experience the world. Most importantly, I try to meet each person where they are and understand them in the context of their family, relationships, and everyday life.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) providing individual and couples therapy for adults who want to better understand themselves and their relationships. My work is rooted in the belief that lasting change begins with awareness—of our thoughts, emotional patterns, and the ways we relate to ourselves and others. I work with individuals who struggle with self-criticism, doubt, emotional disconnection, and a persistent sense that they are never doing “enough.” Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but feel internally overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from their sense of worth. Through therapy, they learn to recognize unhelpful patterns of self-talk, develop greater emotional clarity, and build a more compassionate and grounded relationship with themselves. I also work with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict, distance, or misunderstanding. Rather than focusing only on the content of arguments, I help couples understand the emotional dynamics and attachment patterns driving their interactions. By reducing judgment and increasing awareness, partners are able to communicate more effectively, rebuild trust, and reconnect in more meaningful ways. My approach is collaborative, insight-oriented, and client-centered. I integrate elements of cognitive-behavioral and attachment-based work to help clients understand the “why” behind their reactions and practice new ways of responding. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes or assigning blame, but about creating space for clarity, understanding, and intentional change. Clients often report feeling calmer, more self-aware, and better equipped to navigate relationships and life challenges. My goal is to help people feel more grounded in themselves, more connected in their relationships, and more confident moving forward.

Hello! I am an LCSW with over 30 years of experience working with adults, children and families. My experience has primarily been in outpatient and intensive outpatient mental health treatment. My goal is to help my clients work toward more peace and confidence as they navigate the challenges of life. My experience is that most people know how they can improve their mood/meet their goals, but need someone to help shine a light on the path forward.

I began my career working in family crisis services, including child protection and foster care. I’ve also supported individuals with disabilities and provided career guidance through my work with the state. While these experiences have shaped my approach, individual and group counseling are truly where I feel most passionate and effective. I am a Christian and draw strength from my faith. For clients who would like to incorporate spirituality into our work, I am happy to do so. At the same time, I fully respect and support clients who prefer a non-spiritual approach—your comfort and goals guide the process.

I am a therapist who is passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and self‑compassion. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative and supportive process—one where clients feel safe, respected, and empowered to create meaningful change in their lives and relationships. In my work with individuals, I help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behavior patterns, especially those that keep them feeling stuck or disconnected from what matters most. I draw from evidence‑based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and cognitive‑behavioral principles, to support clients in building psychological flexibility, coping more effectively with stress, and moving toward values‑driven goals. Rather than focusing solely on “fixing” symptoms, I work with clients to change their relationship with difficult experiences and to build skills that support long‑term growth. As a couples therapist, I support partners in strengthening communication, deepening emotional connection, and navigating conflict in healthier ways. I help couples identify unhelpful interaction patterns, increase understanding of one another’s experiences, and develop practical tools for responding with greater awareness and intention.

My approach is trauma‑informed, strengths‑based, and tailored to each client or couple’s unique needs, background, and goals.

Whether you are seeking support for personal growth, relationship concerns, or life transitions, my goal is to help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and alignment with what matters most to you.
