My approach to create a space with my clients to have a more personally tailored approach utilizing a wellness approach!
Thriving instead of just surviving.

Whether you are experiencing loss, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, a life transition, stress or need a sounding board, I am here to be a support!
In learning about one’s personal strengths I utilize that information to assist in the healing process exploring what you would like to see different in your life and explore options in our journey together. I assist individuals to find new ways to cope, function and learn to let go of behaviors that are no longer serving their best interests.
There are times in life when we feel stuck, lonely, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves. While these experiences can be painful, I believe they often serve as powerful catalysts for growth, healing, and transformation. Earning your trust and helping you establish a secure, empowering baseline for your care is an honor I hold deeply.

It is a privilege to support people as they develop greater self-awareness, strengthen their resilience, and move toward a more authentic version of themselves.
I am the Founder of EQ Therapy (eqtherapy.co), a private practice designed for high-performing clients. I also teach at NYU in their graduate mental health counseling program.

I supervise therapists at EQ Therapy who are accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy. If you're a couple, college student, industry leader, entrepreneur, or athlete, schedule a session with with me today!
I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck, disconnected from their body, or who carry an extensive trauma history. Whether you’re highly analytical and struggling to drop into your body, or finding it hard to feel and name your emotions, I offer approaches that meet you where you are. Using somatic and body-based methods, including movement, mindfulness, imagery, and metaphor, I help clients access their inner world, integrate difficult experiences, and break through old patterns.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Poughkeepsie, NY
Finding therapists in Poughkeepsie starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, work stress, or a major life transition. As you compare Poughkeepsie therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Poughkeepsie, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to filter by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports people with concerns similar to yours.
Therapy in Poughkeepsie can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find therapists in Poughkeepsie, NY who take insurance, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and offer virtual or in-person sessions. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
