It's very difficult to be in stressful situations that can cause lots of anxiety and self-doubt. Perhaps you're looking for something more than advice from family and friends. If you're looking for a warm and inviting counseling atmosphere, I am eager to work with you to develop effective coping skills and a greater self-awareness to reach your full potential. Together, you and I can work to set goals that are appropriate and attainable for you, at your pace. For therapy to be effective for you, I work hard to build genuine and long lasting trust.
I have experience working with clients who have suffered from anxiety, depression, and marital issues. Additionally, I believe that cultural factors are critical to the way we navigate through life. I work hard to address cultural matters, to understand how these may impact our perception of the world.
Call me for a free consultation where we can discuss your needs and goals. For your convenience, I offer online counseling. También, ofrezco servicios en español. Llamame para discutir tus metas.
I am a board-certified adult/consult-liaison psychiatrist, who is currently practicing in NYC. Patients who enter treatment with me can expect to receive holistic and individualized care for their mental and emotional needs.
I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety, and in working with women as they navigate life transitions like college/graduate school, relationships, marriage and new parenthood.
Through an approach of curiosity, collaboration, and genuine care, I will work with you to explore patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting that get in the way of your goals. Together, we will discover the origin of long-held self-limiting beliefs and stories whether rooted in past experiences of trauma, attachment wounds or other difficult circumstances. We will identify your triggers and blind spots for these patterns and help you integrate new responses so that you can make intentional choices that are in line with your values and vision for yourself. My hope is that through our work, you will access your authentic voice allowing your innate courage, creativity and wisdom to guide your way.
Whether working with clients through current stresses or healing from past wounds, I use a psychodynamic lens and often integrate somatic and mindfulness interventions to help clients cultivate ease, calm and clarity. I consider therapy a sacred process, and am honored to support each of my clients on their unique journey.
Hi, I’m Melisa, a licensed mental health counselor passionate about helping individuals of all ages navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with children and adolescents, using play therapy to foster expression and healing, while also supporting adults with issues like anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles.
If you're seeking support in overcoming life’s challenges, I’d be honored to work with you.
Do you notice patterns of behaviors that you are unsatisfied with? Therapy is a significant step towards working through and facing life's most difficult challenges. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children treating issues of adjustment, self-doubt, mood swings, trauma and anxiety attacks. When you approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, you can grow, heal, and thrive.
I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2002. Having worked in healthcare and academic settings, I appreciate being part of a treatment team and am available to coordinate care with other providers when beneficial. Rather than see 'how many problems' a person may be facing... I see 'how many ways things can get better'. I value working with folks to see their puzzle from a different angle and to use tools to clarify, change and improve the picture.
As a clinical psychologist, I assist patients in reshaping negative thought and behavior patterns in a judgement free setting.
I am a board certified psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent and adult psychiatry . I have 27 years of experience in practice treating patients with depression, anxiety , mood and bipolar disorders, ADHD, impulse control disorders , schizophrenia , obsessive compulsive disorder , post traumatic stress disorder , dementia and autism related mood and impulse control disorders as well as Somatoform and personality disorders
I am an LMHC in New York. I have been in private practice since 2015. I obtained my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2012 and began working in a residential setting, providing services to adults with chronic mental illness and substance use disorders, receiving numerous promotions along the way. After 11 years, I decided to move onto something new, obtaining a position as a Clinical Director in an outpatient clinic. I recently decided to pursue my private practice full time.
I believe prioritizing mental health is key to stability in life. I know there is a better world out there and people need the tools to connect with their upmost insight for mental well being. In this field I am always eager to research and find healing processes to tailor the need of each individual.
I am a board certified Mental Health Counselor who works with individuals and couples and provides care for patients who struggle with interpersonal relationships, depression and anxiety. I studied at Brooklyn College, where I obtained a MA in Mental Health Counseling. I also worked in the profession for over four years, where I established my objection relations & cognitive restructuring techniques that have been a crucial part of my practice and my patients' success and progress.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Long Island City, NY
Searching for therapists in Long Island City starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s profile can help you understand what they focus on and what sessions may be like.
In Long Island City, your search may include offices near Hunters Point, Court Square, Queens Plaza, or nearby parts of Queens. Local appointment options may be limited by schedule, commute, and availability, so virtual therapy can help expand your choices. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions close to transit or virtual appointments that fit your calendar. You can also narrow your search by therapists accepting new clients, evening or weekend availability, free phone consultations, and the communication style described in each bio.
Therapy in Long Island City 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 your first appointment. Headway helps you find licensed therapists, many of whom accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
