Hello! My name is Cathy Randolph and I am a Board-Certified Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I developed my passion for mental health during my journey working with veterans in residential PTSD and Substance abuse programs.

I am also a Medicinal Marijuana clinician.

I help college-bound teens and young adults work through repetitive thoughts of worry, insecurities, productivity pressure, people pleasing, loneliness and a range of other obstacles. In the therapy space, clients find their confidence so that they can build healthier relationships with family, friends, and partners. I specialize in working with disordered eating and body image concerns. My approach is warm, open, and straightforward.
I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.
I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in East Islip, NY
Finding therapists in East Islip starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for someone whose listed specialties match your needs. Their bio can also show how they work, including approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
East Islip is a smaller Long Island community, so local in-person openings may vary. Expanding your search across Suffolk County or considering virtual sessions can give you more options while keeping care connected to your schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others value the flexibility of virtual appointments. Before booking, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in East Islip can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, take your plan, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
