I am a New York State licensed clinical social worker who specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy with extensive training in psychotherapy.

I have had the privilege of working as an individual and group therapist in numerous therapeutic settings. These experiences have allowed me to utilize various treatment modalities in order to empower the individuals I work with.

Gila Schwartz is a therapist located on Long Island, NY. A psychologist focuses on the evaluation, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental, emotional and behavioral health issues. A clinical psychologist uses psychotherapy and other counseling skills to improve emotional and mental health.
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.
Hello! My name is Cathy Randolph and I am a Board-Certified Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

I have clinical experience treating individuals, couples, adolescents, children and families. I have treated various mental health disorders, such as, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, trauma, eating disorders, OCD and PTSD as well as couple and family conflict.
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.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Mount Vernon
Searching for therapists in Mount Vernon starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to work on. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Mount Vernon therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style.
In a smaller city like Mount Vernon, the right local fit may depend on more than office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading profiles before booking can help you evaluate communication style, experience, and whether the therapist’s approach fits the kind of support you want.
Therapy in Mount Vernon can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for a Mount Vernon therapist who takes your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
