I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor with a background in Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor with 9 years of experience. I have worked with individuals with dual diagnosis with substance use including anxiety, depression, Bipolar and trauma. I look forward to guiding you on your courageous journey.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience providing psychotherapy and behavioral health consultation in inpatient medical, psychiatric, and consult-liaison settings. I have worked with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, chronic illness, and life transitions.

I recognize that each person brings a unique set of experiences, strengths, and challenges into therapy. My role is not to assume what will be most helpful, but to understand what has brought you here, what matters most to you, and how we can work together in a way that feels meaningful and relevant to your life.

I'm a trauma-trained therapist based in New York with experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, and the challenges that come with getting older — things like identity shifts, chronic health conditions, and feeling like life looks different than you expected. I especially enjoy working with women navigating those in-between seasons, when they're not quite sure who they are or where they're headed. I have a background working with kids and families as well, and I'm open to expanding in that direction as my practice grows.

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.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating anxiety, OCD, stress related disorders and life transitions. My style is warm, relational, and gently challenging. I want you to feel truly seen, but also supported in moving toward real change. I value genuine connection and create a space where you can show up as you are without judgment. I pull from evidence-based approaches to help you understand your patterns and build practical tools that foster growth.

Hello, I’m Melissa Alcaide. I have worked in human services since 2009, supporting individuals through a wide range of personal and life challenges. My professional experience includes providing supportive counseling in correctional settings, outpatient mental health services for individuals living with serious mental illness, housing and homelessness services, and helping people navigate complex systems and life transitions. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work, a Master’s degree in Human Services Leadership, and a degree in Paralegal Studies.

Today, I am especially passionate about helping individuals struggling with anxiety, OCD, relationship concerns, self-esteem, life transitions, and building greater confidence in themselves and their decisions.

Our sessions will begin at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I specialize in an integrative, holistic approach to depression, anxiety, trauma, and coping with life challenges. My therapeutic approach blends humanistic, mindfulness, somatic work, deep spiritual inquiry, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy, tailored to each client’s unique experiences.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 8+ years old experience, I'm committed to helping adults navigate life's challenges. My experience includes working with individuals across a wide range of concerns, with a particular focus on adults 18 and older who are struggling with mood and thought disorders.

I have been Board certified Advanced Practice Nurse for 6 years. I have about 1 year experiencing specializing in generalized anxiety, major depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. I have 4 years of experience as a telemedicine provider. I became a PMHNP because I take pride in helping other achieve a sense of joy in finding peace in their reality and creating healthy coping strategies.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have focused the majority of my career on youth and young adults. I love working with young people as they navigate the challenges of personality development, family relationships, and exploring their place in the world beyond the family. My clinical judgment and practice strategies are guided by over twenty years of work with a wide variety of clients and circumstances. As a social worker in a lively high school and a parent of two young adults, I am very comfortable building rapport with the full gamut of adolescent personalities.

I am very excited to support clients in all developmental life stages as they work through clinical and non-clinical issues. These include depression, anxiety, trauma, divorce, grief and loss, life and career transitions, relationships, parenting, family dynamics, and aging.

I care about meeting you where you are, whether you're working through anxiety, depression, or the challenges of addiction. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard and supported from our very first conversation. I take time to understand what matters most to you, and I build a plan together with you rather than handing you a one size fits all approach. Therapy and treatment work best when you feel like an active partner in your own care, and that is exactly the kind of relationship I aim to build with every person I work with.
