Find a therapist in Port Jefferson Station, NY — covered by insurance

Working with me means you don't have to edit yourself before walking through the door. I work with adults across New York who are navigating trauma, grief, postpartum struggles, OCD, identity, and the exhaustion that comes from surviving things most people don't talk about out loud. My clients often tell me they've spent years feeling like "too much" - too emotional, too complicated, too much history. My job is to be the one who's not overwhelmed by any of that. I'm a Black woman clinician, and I bring that lived lens into my work with intentionality, not as a side note. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are - and also gently challenge you when you're ready - you're in the right place.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC- NY & WA), Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC -CT), and and a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor – Master Level (CASAC – M) with 13 years of experience. I specialize in substance use, anger management, depression, anxiety, and behavior issues.

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 am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that supports clients in creating meaningful and lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique experiences and strengths.

Thanks for visiting my page. I’m Esteban, and I bring over 30 years of experience in the human services field and more than a decade as a licensed therapist.

I also support clients exploring men’s issues and LGBTQIA+ experiences, always with an open, affirming, and respectful perspective.

At the heart of my work is a simple goal: helping people reach their highest potential in life. Many of the people I work with want to better understand their past experiences, make sense of their emotions, and begin making meaningful changes. My style is holistic, open-minded, and affirming, and I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel respected and supported.

I am a dedicated and compassionate collaborator committed to helping you navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and deeply empathetic. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by trauma, grief, or the daily stresses of life, I’m here to support and empower you.

If you have been carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or the weight of a life in

transition, you do not have to keep doing it alone. I'm Jennifer, a licensed clinical social

worker with a background in mental health, crisis, and substance use settings. I am trauma-

informed and trained in Progressive Counting, a focused evidence-based approach for

working through difficult experiences. My goal is to offer a genuinely supportive,

nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward.

If that sounds like what you are looking for, I would love to connect.

I have been helping people finding solutions to complex problems for more than 20 years. I have a wealth of experience with individuals across the life span and the many challenges we face at various stages of life.

What inspired me to become a psychotherapist? Witnessing the challenges people face in life and being captivated by superheroes as a child. Helping others is my passion—it feels like I'm living my childhood dreams. My experience in state psychiatric centers, working with individuals dealing with severe and persistent mental health issues, solidified my desire to assist those with social and emotional needs. While working as a school counselor was rewarding, I felt compelled to offer more comprehensive services beyond psycho-educational workshops. Pursuing clinical therapy was a natural progression for me. I earned my mental health counseling degree at LIU Post and furthered my expertise with certifications and training in CBT, internal family systems, ACT, and logotherapy. These skills enable me to assist clients with reparenting, anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress management, co-parenting, couples counseling, family therapy, and emotional regulation. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I bring an interactive and down-to-earth approach to therapy. My goal is to equip you with a practical skill set that promotes growth and fulfillment. I look forward to meeting you and helping you live the life you envision!

Hi, I’m Bushra. I provide therapy for Asian American, Queer, and Muslim clients through an intersectional lens. I have 9 years of experience working with clients who are managing day-to-day anxiety, navigating an unjust society, working through their identity and cultural expectations, and figuring out relationships—whether that’s with family, friends, partners, or themselves. I believe that we’re all human doing our best to move through a complicated world. The choices we make don’t come out of nowhere. They’re shaped by our environments, our histories, families, and the systems we live within.

Hello I am Jenn, I have a graduate degree from The College of St Rose in Albany, and NYS licensed Master CASAC. I am most proud of the well seasoned life experience that comes with being a Gen X.

Clients can expect authenticity, an open mind, and an understanding space to explore traumatic and challenging belief systems (that no longer work), emotional dysregulation, coping skills, communication skills (boundary setting, healthy communication, self care), and future focused guidance and support.

Clients will improve social, relational and professional interactions. Clients are free to express themselves mindfully and reflect intentionally about challenging behavior and racing thoughts. I will always provide compassionate non-judgmental, and ethical care.

I began my journey in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2015 and am currently pursuing my doctorate. I work with clients seeking support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship and dating challenges, as well as those seeking a more fulfilling life.

I help you close the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

I am a clinical social worker with years of experience. I value getting to know both the strengths and challenges my clients are facing. We will work collaboratively to address the issues we identify and create goals to achieve.
