Hi, I’m a licensed clinician committed to creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation challenges, trauma, life transitions, and relationship concerns. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, integrating evidence-based practices including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed approaches, while also providing clinical and forensic evaluation services. My goal is to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered in their growth.
I'm a therapist with a commitment to supporting you and your mental and emotional well-being. I have experience working with clients going through crisis, life transitions, relationship struggles, and family discord. I am certified in Creative Arts Therapy and Disaster and Collective Trauma Therapy.
Hi I am Babayemi "Yemi" Aiyegbo, a licensed clinical social worker. I want you to be healthy. I have many years of experience serving people and communities. My interests include how mental health impacts your wellbeing, client centered development, and utilizing strengths. When I'm not helping others, I enjoy creating digital music, being outdoors, traveling, and watching films.
I believe feelings aren't obstacles to manage they're signals worth understanding. For over five years, I've worked alongside people who are quietly exhausted: carrying anxiety, sitting with grief, untangling patterns in their relationships, or navigating a life that no longer fits who they're becoming. My clients often describe our sessions as the first place they've felt truly heard without needing to perform strength or explain away their emotions. I work with individuals and couples across New York, New Jersey, and Florida via telehealth, with evening, morning, and weekend availability, so quality care doesn't have to be another thing to schedule around. I accept Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Anthem, Empire, and other major plans. You don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out we can start exactly where you are.

What if improving your relationships isn’t starting together, but starting with you? As a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with individuals who are curious about their relationship patterns and ready to create meaningful change from the inside out. You may feel stuck in recurring dynamics, find yourself questioning how your family background shapes your relationships, or want to communicate more effectively. Together, we create a space to gain clarity, better understand what’s driving these patterns, and begin making intentional shifts toward healthier, more balanced relationships.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 28 years of experience, I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and accepted. Having worked with individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences, I tailor therapy to meet your unique needs and goals. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!
