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. For the past seven years, I have worked alongside parents and teens to provide the practical, real-world tools needed to navigate these exact challenges.
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 seasoned clinical social worker licensed in New York and Florida who has worked with all ages. I have my Bachelor's degree from Russell Sage College Troy, New York in Sociology and Psychology. I received my Master's degree from The State University of New York at Albany with a focus on individual counseling. I've been a therapist for 16 years.
I specialize in depression, anxiety, PTSD,
obsessive compulsive disorder, addiction, panic attacks, trauma, grief and loss, geriatric issues, stress-related disorders, bipolar disorders and schizophrenia.
If something has felt off for a while, you're not imagining it — and you don't have to keep pushing through alone.
Maybe it's work stress, a relationship that's wearing on you, or just the relentless pace of life in New York. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: what you're feeling makes sense, and things can genuinely get better.
I'm Sarah, a licensed psychologist with a Psy.D. from Spalding University. I specialize in anxiety and depression, and I've worked across hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice — experiences that gave me a deep respect for how differently people cope, survive, and heal. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I won't treat you like a checklist.
Hey there! I'm an LCSW and psychotherapist with over 4 years of experience. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ teens and adults and people living with depression, anxiety, and the impact of trauma. I create a space where your full self is welcome—your identity, culture, feelings, and questions.
I'm Jihan — a bilingual LCSW, second-generation Cuban/American Latina, and relational therapist
based in New York City, offering Telehealth sessions across New York State. I have four years of
clinical experience working with adults and adolescents across a range of concerns: anxiety, grief,
ADHD, major life transitions, trauma, burnout, and the kind of identity work that comes with being
young, bicultural, or figuring out who you are in a world that doesn't always have room for
complexity.
I'm proudly LGBTQ+ affirming and see clients across the gender and sexuality spectrum.
I work best with adolescents, young adults, and adults in the middle of something — a transition, a
loss, a recognition that old patterns aren't working. I'm not here to foster dependency or give you a
script for your life. I'm here to help you build the kind of self-understanding that goes with you.

Whether you’re dealing with persistent worry, low mood, major life changes, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore, grow, and move toward a more balanced, fulfilling life.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Massapequa
Searching for therapists in Massapequa starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a major life change. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, therapy style, and background before booking. If you are looking for a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples therapy, look for that experience in the therapist’s profile.
In a smaller Long Island community like Massapequa, local in-person appointment times may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping your search focused on therapists licensed in New York. As you compare therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how their bio describes the way sessions are structured. For searches related to marriage counseling in Massapequa, Long Island couples therapy, or couples therapy in Nassau County, look for therapists who mention work with couples, communication patterns, trust, parenting, or relationship concerns.
Therapy in Massapequa can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, add your insurance details, review estimated costs, and compare bios in one place. You can browse therapists in Massapequa, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
