Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in New York

Hello, my name is Lindsay, and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I practice a person-centered approach to therapy, where the therapeutic relationship is collaborative, and together, we work to create the best treatment plan for you.

I specialize in helping individuals who are struggling with traumatic experiences, anxiety, panic, depression, low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal ideation, and other challenging mental health concerns.

life issues are like scars that healed all infected (I know what an opener but stay with me). They can be emotional, physical, spiritual, psychological or all the above. With trust & time it can be cleaned. That journey is not easy, but scars become beauty marks. A testament of what could have ended you but didn't. My background is colorful w/ 10+years.I have experience in a little of everything. The journey to seek help is not easy. I'm proud of you. Oh, and remember BROKEN CRAYONS STILL COLOR!

I believe meaningful healing begins when individuals feel seen, heard, and understood. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I bring over four years of clinical counseling experience, along with more than twenty-two years as a school psychologist, to support children, individuals, and families.

With more than two decades in education, I became deeply aware of how essential mental health support is for children and families. I witnessed firsthand how emotional challenges can affect learning, relationships, and overall well-being—and how transformative the right support can be.

These experiences led me to pursue a career in mental health counseling. Today, I partner with adults to help them build a strong, grounded foundation for themselves, one that naturally extends to their children and strengthens the family as a whole. I also remain committed to supporting teens as they enter adulthood, helping them develop the tools and confidence needed for lifelong well-being.

How can I help? Are you are having trouble achieving or discovering your goals, or has life become overwhelming? Perhaps you have been feeling anxious or depressed. Maybe just not like yourself and are in search of a place to talk and process your feelings. You may be looking for help in a specific area of life or feel that something is missing. Whatever you are searching for, effective therapy and coaching will help. I aim to personalize my approach to you. Although many of us have similar struggles, only you are you.
