You deserve a down to earth, compassionate, counselor and therapist. You deserved to be listened to with no judgement and pre-conceived notions. You deserve flexible hours, and availability to speak in total privacy. You were made to breathe and not gasp for air!! Its ok to take a day off from work and not feel guilty!

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or trying to make sense of themselves during stressful or transitional periods of life. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, burnout, work-related stress, or the emotional toll of caring for others. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and able to approach challenges with greater clarity and confidence.

I have particular experience working with young adults, young professionals, healthcare workers, first responders, and men—especially those who may be new to therapy or unsure where to start. Through my work across emergency, outpatient, residential, and telehealth settings, I’ve supported individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and life circumstances. This has shaped me into a flexible and adaptable clinician who is comfortable meeting clients where they are.

Therapist

I am Anna Rozengauz, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience

helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and the kind of life transitions that

leave you feeling stuck or uncertain about what comes next. I work with people who are

often high-functioning on the outside but privately exhausted — people who want to

feel more in control of their emotions and more at ease in their own lives. I offer

sessions in both English and Russian, and I work with many clients from Eastern

European and immigrant backgrounds who want a therapist who understands their

cultural frame of reference as much as their symptoms.

Alan Ellis

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • White Plains, NY


I have a particular passion for working with men, especially guys in their 20s and 30s. A lot of the young men I see are dealing with something the research is only now catching up to — an erosion of in-person connection, a sense of drift, and a shortage of spaces where they can actually say what's going on. I'm genuinely excited and motivated by this work because I believe this generation of men needs — and deserves — real support. That said, I also welcome clients navigating anxiety, discouragement, depression, workplace stress, relationship dynamics, and life transitions of all kinds.

I'm a Brooklyn-bred Psychotherapist and earned my LCSW in 2009. I previously worked in the corporate world, and understand pressure, ambition, career transitions, and what it feels like when the thing you've built your identity around stops fitting. Since becoming a therapist, I've worked in hospitals, outpatient clinics, substance abuse treatment, and psych rehab before settling into a private practice where I'm focused on the work I care most about.
