Greetings,

I'm Brooke Ayoub, and I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor.

I earned my Master's degree in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling from Auburn University and completed an Advanced Graduate Certification in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo.

I also have a holistic background as a yoga instructor, Reiki Master, and an Ayurvedic practitioner. These practices have deepened my understanding of the connection between the mind, body, and overall well-being.

Hi there, and welcome!

Congrats on taking the first step. As a licensed psychotherapist, my passion is listening and tuning into my clients' strengths, challenges, and what's holding them back from experiencing their best selves - and going from there. I work with adults of all ages, and specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression. I hold a Masters from Fordham University's Graduate School of Social Services, completed a two-year training program at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, and am EMDR trained.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I'm a licensed clinical therapist with over four years of experience providing trauma-informed psychotherapy. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I often work with people experiencing PTSD/C-PTSD, dissociative disorders, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Many of my clients are also folks who have spent a long time feeling different, overwhelmed, or stuck in self-criticism. I aim to provide a warm, affirming space where you can feel authentically yourself.

Penelope Dow

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • New York, NY


In my practice I work with clients of all backgrounds and age groups; and I have a specialty in adolescence and young adulthood. I enjoy supporting clients as they navigate growing up and becoming adults in this complex world. My approach is grounded in Psychodynamic Theory and the belief that many of our problems are rooted in thinking patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses that we developed early in life. My work is eclectic and collaborative. I draw on many modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Treatment, Family Systems Theory and Motivational Interviewing.


Most importantly, I see the therapeutic process as a collaborative endeavor between client and therapist. The client is the expert on themselves, and the therapist is a partner in their journey of self-exploration. We work together to change habits, behaviors, and thought patterns, that are causing distress, and getting in the way of the client’s goals.


I have a background in the creative arts, and enjoy supporting artists, writers, and actors, as they seek balance in their lives. Also, I have spent many years working in the New York City Schools with children, families, teachers, and administrators, to address individual students’ emotional and behavioral problems that interfere with school performance.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Auburn

Searching for therapists in Auburn starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare Auburn therapists, review their listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help you understand what working together may look like.

In a smaller city like Auburn, local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New York. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, scheduling flexibility, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare Auburn counseling services by approach, availability, and fit.

Therapy in Auburn can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can browse therapists in Auburn, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
