Therapist

Virtual • New York


My aim is to create a warm, judgement free, safe space for you to understand yourself better. I see therapy as a journey between two people. At times the journey can feel daunting, overwhelming, and challenging, and I am here to help make the burden a little easier to bear. I work with individuals of all backgrounds and of various ages, coping with trauma, depression, anxiety, interpersonal and relationship struggles, work stress, stage of life transitions, and more. I have been on my own therapy journey too, so I understand what it is like to be on the "other side" of the room. I aim to use my own experience in therapy to bring empathy and compassion to your therapy journey.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Syracuse, NY

Finding postpartum therapists in Syracuse starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or postpartum support. A perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal specialized training in care during pregnancy and after birth.

In a smaller city like Syracuse, the number of local in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your search while making it easier to fit care around infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Beyond specialty, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that match your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns.

Therapy in Syracuse can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who match your needs, lets you check insurance coverage for your specific plan and location, and offers upfront cost estimates before you book. You can compare profiles, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
