Hello , I am a therapist with over 30 years of experience working with teens and adults. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. My priority is to create a therapeutic relationship in a safe, judgement free space.
Hello! My name is Cathy Randolph and I am a Board-Certified Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I developed my passion for mental health during my journey working with veterans in residential PTSD and Substance abuse programs. My specialties include, but are not limited to treating and managing PTSD, Substance abuse, ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and adjustment disorder. I am also a Medicinal Marijuana clinician.
Hello, and welcome. Deciding to start therapy is a meaningful step, and finding the right fit is essential to your journey.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Nassau County, Long Island. Over the years, my professional background has been rooted in supporting individuals through life's transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth.
Do you feel like your life lacks joy, meaning and connection? Do you feel the overwhelming weight of your responsibilities? Are you tired of "just getting by"? Are you ready to have more positive emotional connections to your experiences? It's time to raise the bar of living from "surviving" to "enjoying"! Together we will go on a journey to explore a deeper way of living that allows you to feel joy in a world full of stress. I will teach you how to strongly connect to your life (self, relationships, job, hobbies, etc.) in a fulfilling way. I will help you build practical skills to feel more organized, focused, and in control of your daily life by improving efficiency, managing time and tasks, and reducing the overwhelm that often interferes with well-being.
Reaching out for help can be challenging and often feels overwhelming. I understand first hand just how dark the path to recovery can seem. But please know, you are not alone! I specialize in working with young adults and adults ages 18+ who suffer from mild-moderate anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, addiction, and life transitions. I utilize a collaborative and individualized approach so my client's always feel heard and understood. No two individuals are ever treated the same!
I am a Double Board-Certified nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health and family health. As a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner, I use an integrative and holistic approach to mental health. As a family nurse practitioner, I take into consideration how physical health impacts mood and relationships. I employ evidence-based medication management. Together, we can pinpoint what's causing you stress and navigate towards a balanced state. I employ brief supportive psychotherapy in every session to help patients manage their emotions, particularly those dealing with chronic illnesses or experiencing high levels of stress. By offering empathy and validation, I aim to strengthen coping mechanisms, boost resilience, and enhance overall mental well-being.

Virtual & in-person • 10 mi away • Roslyn Heights, NY
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Adelphi University’s Derner Institute for Advanced Psychological Studies and my Master of Social Work degree at Adelphi University’s School of Social Work.
I specialize in treating trauma and stress related disorders (i.e., acute stress disorder, PTSD, adjustment disorders), anxiety, and depressive disorders.
I help college-bound teens and young adults work through repetitive thoughts of worry, insecurities, productivity pressure, people pleasing, loneliness and a range of other obstacles. In the therapy space, clients find their confidence so that they can build healthier relationships with family, friends, and partners. I specialize in working with disordered eating and body image concerns. My approach is warm, open, and straightforward.
Mental health is nothing to "work on later" or neglect. This is the place you can be vulnerable, emotional and free of judgement. I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Melville
Searching for therapists in Melville starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which specialties match your needs. Therapists may work with concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience fit what you want to focus on. Bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or another style of care.
Melville is part of the broader Huntington and Long Island therapy market, so local options may be more limited than in larger New York City areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still keeping you connected with a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Melville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates. You can browse therapists in Melville and nearby Long Island communities, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
