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.
I am a licensed clinical social worker based in New York City. I specialize in individual and couples psychotherapy. I graduated from NYU and have 10+ years of experience working with adults and families in a variety of settings, including hospital psychiatric emergency room and and community clinics.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree from the New York University Silver School of Social Work. I have extensive experience supporting individuals and families experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
My professional background includes working with individuals and families helping them strengthen relationships, manage stress, and build healthier coping strategies. I am passionate about helping people feel empowered, supported, and capable of creating meaningful change in their lives.
I offer therapy in English and Spanish and welcome individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.
I am trained as a clinical social worker. I consider my patients in the context of their family, social and cultural background. I work with adults of all ages.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in East Syracuse
Searching for therapists in East Syracuse starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, or work stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that fit your needs. Some profiles may mention approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, which can help you understand how a therapist may structure sessions.
East Syracuse is a smaller market, so local in-person openings may be more limited than in nearby Syracuse. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you see a therapist licensed in New York. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session focus, and what to expect in the first appointment.
Therapy in East Syracuse can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can review bios, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
