Psychologist

Virtual & in-person • New York, NY


I work with people who are stuck at certain crossroads in their life. Typically, the external problems seem to solve themselves once therapy reaches a certain point. This applies to work, relationships, life goals, and creative pursuits. My job is to help you transform mental or physical pain into something that is bearable and makes life worth living.


I work with a wide range of clients.


I welcome any questions you have. Feel free to give me a call or email with any questions you have about starting therapy.

I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, regardless of their background or circumstances. Whether you are struggling with excessive worry or negative thoughts, overwhelmed by schoolwork as a student, supporting a family member with autism or developmental disability, or facing challenges as a member of a marginalized group in society, it is common to feel hopeless and worthless at times. However, you do not have to give in to these feelings.

Hi, I’m Jennifer, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience. I work primarily with women, mothers, preteens, and teens who may be carrying the effects of trauma, grief, family conflict, difficult relationships, anxiety, or depression.

Many of my clients are used to being strong for everyone else while quietly feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of themselves. You may struggle with overthinking, setting boundaries, trusting your feelings, or breaking patterns that have kept you in survival mode. You deserve a space where you can feel supported, understood, and cared for too.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in New York

Searching for OCD therapists in New York starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder and exposure and response prevention therapy. Exposure and response prevention, or ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not all therapists have specific training in it. If you’re looking for support with obsessive thoughts, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, or related stress, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach. Look for profiles that mention OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

Across New York, available OCD therapy options can vary between New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and more rural areas. Virtual care can expand your search beyond the closest office while still letting you choose in-person care when location matters. As you compare therapists, look beyond whether OCD appears in a profile. A therapist who lists ERP training, OCD-focused experience, free phone consultations, and appointment times that fit your schedule may be a stronger match than one who notes general familiarity with OCD. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and supports people with OCD.

The cost of OCD therapy in New York can be significant without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, take your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 3303 insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
