"To be more fully connected is to be more fully oneself" Hi, I am a bilingual (Mandarin) therapist in NYC and surrounding area with over 13 years of clinical experience supporting children, couples, and families. My client-centered approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s needs. I have worked with diverse populations in child welfare, psychiatric centers, and the education system, helping clients navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Selective Mutism and relationship issues. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, gain clarity, and find greater meaning and fulfillment in life
I am a Double Board-Certified nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health and family health. As a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner, I use an integrative and holistic approach to mental health. As a family nurse practitioner, I take into consideration how physical health impacts mood and relationships. I employ evidence-based medication management. Together, we can pinpoint what's causing you stress and navigate towards a balanced state. I employ brief supportive psychotherapy in every session to help patients manage their emotions, particularly those dealing with chronic illnesses or experiencing high levels of stress. By offering empathy and validation, I aim to strengthen coping mechanisms, boost resilience, and enhance overall mental well-being.

Are you... A young adult struggling in the attempt to to navigate life transitions, school, the workforce, family life or other issues?
Or a couple having trouble finding the right words to communicate and find expression in your relationship?
You can thrive.
Hi! I’m Hudi Kowalsky, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a passion to help teens and young adults find meaning and purpose in their lives.
How my practice is different:
Goal Focused Therapy. I believe in short, goal-focused therapy. That’s why, we set goals and together we hit the ground running. If you put in the work, you’ll see results within 12 weeks. I know that’s a bold statement, but my past clients can attest to that.
Client Feedback. I check in periodically on your thoughts about the process. I want to hear from you, what’s working? What isn’t? Is there anything that you’d like to see different? And then I tweak it accordingly.
I know it can be hard to find the right therapist. Maybe you think it’s only for people with “serious” issues. Maybe you’ve been to a few therapists but you didn’t see change and you’re wondering what another therapist can offer you. Maybe you’re afraid of what people will think of you if you go to therapy. Maybe you’re not sure therapy is worth the investment.
I understand. That’s why I’m here to answer any questions you may have prior to booking an intake session.

As a clinical psychologist, I assist patients in reshaping negative thought and behavior patterns in a judgement free setting.
I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space for self-exploration, discovery, and healing. By utilizing unconditional positive acceptance, my goal is to help clients add to their social and emotional knowledge so they can navigate through difficulties in ways that foster self-esteem, well-being, and growth.
Hi, I’m Yitzchok Wagshul. One day, my young grandson asked me what kind of doctor I am. I’m a clinical psychologist, so I replied, “I’m the kind of doctor who helps sad people feel happy.” He looked at me and said, “Zaidy,” (that’s “Grandpa” in Yiddish) "that’s not being a doctor, that’s just being nice!” That’s a cute story, but I want to tell you something: the better part of therapy is “being nice.” I know a lot of psychology. But if I didn’t respect each person I work with, if I didn’t view them with complete acceptance and unconditional positive regard, all of that would be worthless, because no one would listen to me.
Hello and welcome to my practice. I specialize in treating young adults who’ve experienced anxiety, trauma, and OCD. I’m level 1 trained in IFS and have extensive training in depth psychology.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Cedarhurst
Searching for therapists in Cedarhurst starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match what you want to address. Some therapists use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed approaches, while others describe their style through the populations they work with or the structure of their sessions.
Cedarhurst is a smaller Long Island community, so local in-person options may vary by schedule, office location, and availability. Virtual therapy can expand your search across New York while still letting you see a therapist licensed in the state. You may also want to consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist profiles can help you understand how each person works, what they specialize in, and what a first session may include.
Therapy in Cedarhurst can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before booking. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who match your needs, offer in-person or virtual care, and let you confirm whether your insurance is accepted before booking. You can browse profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
