I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and received my Master of Social Work from UNC-Chapel Hill in 2007. Prior starting private practice 2017, I worked as a therapist at Family and Children's Service of Ithaca and at Duke University’s Student Counseling Center (CAPS).
My motto is: "Helping People Help Themselves to a Better Life. I support people with a smile and a reassuring description of my skills and abilities. I reinforce my respect for their choices as we engage in therapy together. I work to create a safe space for clients to address their issues.
Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I have been a Licensed Social Worker for 17 years and believe that therapy is a wonderful tool for growth and change. My approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and help you live your best life!
As a board-certified mental health counselor with over five years of experience, I’m passionate about helping individuals live as their most authentic and fulfilled selves. I believe that prioritizing mental health is one of the most meaningful investments you can make in your life. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative space where you feel understood, empowered, and ready to grow.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with five years of experience providing individual and couples therapy in both private practice and community mental health settings. I earned my bachelor's degree from Tufts University and my Master of Social Work from New York University.
I have 8 years of nursing experience working with children as young as 6 years and older across inpatient and outpatient settings. Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, ODD, bipolar and psychotic disorders are some of the areas I have expertise in.

Hi, I’m Amanda! I work with individuals who are motivated to enhance their relationships-both with themselves and others.
We could be a good fit if you’re struggling with anxiety or overthinking, relationship or dating stress, people-pleasing and boundaries, body image concerns, OCD, or a life transition that has left you feeling stuck or unsure of what comes next.
My work centers women and queer adults who wish to soften after life has tried to harden them. I specialize in working with folks who are:
- healing painful patterns
- building healthier relationships
- processing grief & loss
- navigating chronic illness/stress
- working through difficult family dynamics
- unmasking
- connecting with their identity
- exploring the impact institutional/personal trauma
I am a queer, gender non-conforming person. I use they/she/he pronouns. I’m Puerto Rican & Italian and I identify as mixed race. That identity affords me a whole lot, while also leaving me feeling quite lost at times. I move through the world in a body that has chronic illness and is dynamically disabled. I think it’s important to take these experiences and translate them into my work when appropriate. I am not affiliated with any religious institution, though I did grow up Catholic. I live by my principles, and am deeply passionate about social justice, food, culture, and sweatpants.
Both in clinical settings and in my personal life, I have been described as principled, observant, quick witted, dedicated, soft, direct, whimsical, rebellious, and genuine.
Working with me means you don't have to edit yourself before walking through the door. I work with adults across New York who are navigating trauma, grief, postpartum struggles, OCD, identity, and the exhaustion that comes from surviving things most people don't talk about out loud. My clients often tell me they've spent years feeling like "too much" - too emotional, too complicated, too much history. My job is to be the one who's not overwhelmed by any of that. I'm a Black woman clinician, and I bring that lived lens into my work with intentionality, not as a side note. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are - and also gently challenge you when you're ready - you're in the right place.

Hi! My name is Jennifer Trujillo-Armijo and I am a first generation Mexican-American navigating through the world. I bring my warm humorous self as I believe that laughing through life can be healing itself. Lets work together to live a happier more fulfilling life.
As a mother of six, I know that raising a family is a complicated and rewarding experience with moments of immense joy. It can also bring its fair share of stress, grief, and conflict.
