Hi, I’m Dr. Peleya Patterson LCSW, DSW. I help people find calm, clarity and confidence through soul work - no matter what life throws your way.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years experience and a Doctorate in Social Work, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for adolescents, adults and families navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.
With 30 years of experience working with people of all cultures and backgrounds, I believe that learning more about oneself is a gift for our inner health. Therapy can be an important resource for clarifying concerns and formulating strategies which could lead to positive choices. My approach is open, non-judgmental and interactive. Therapy does not need to be a long term process but can be an effective tool for developing better coping mechanisms. I have experience working with children and adolescents; and adults.
I believe that one of the bravest and most meaningful steps a person can take is beginning to understand their own story. My approach to therapy is holistic, recognizing the interconnected nature of emotional, mental, and personal well-being.
I am committed to meeting you where you are, working collaboratively at a pace that feels comfortable and appropriate for you. Together, we can explore and address the challenges that may be impacting your growth and well-being.
I look forward to partnering with you to gain deeper insight, foster meaningful change, and help shape the future you envision for yourself.
It is my belief that each of us has the ability to find our best self. With guidance, insight and a desire to move forward we can obtain optimal emotional, spiritual and mental health. My practice encompasses supportive exploration and accomplishment of one's identified goal(s) with compassion, intuition and an eclectic blend of therapy methods. Much of my work is with individuals who are experiencing issues related to depression, anxiety, self-esteem, trauma and substance abuse. With couples and families the work is focused upon exploring, identifying and addressing issues surrounding poor communication, trust and boundaries.
I have been in practice for the last 5 years primarily in the intensive outpatient setting. I offer a safe, compassionate space where your story is heard and respected. Together, we’ll work toward understanding your experiences, building coping skills, and creating meaningful change.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from Keuka College. My experience includes supporting individuals through trauma, grief and loss, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I draw from evidence-based approaches to help clients find balance, healing, and renewed purpose.
Jackie Verdura is passionate about creating safe, supportive spaces where people feel heard and valued. With a focus on practical solutions and empathy, Jackie helps individuals navigate challenges with confidence and care. Jackie believes mental health is a journey best taken together, and works to make every interaction approachable and uplifting
My name is Casey, and I am a licensed clinical social worker based in New York City. Most recently, I have been working at an NYU Langone family health center in Brooklyn, supporting individuals facing a wide range of challenges, with a particular focus on co-occurring substance use and mental health concerns.
Before becoming a therapist, I developed programming and partnerships for a company centered on holistic wellness and spiritual inquiry. Through that work, I was exposed to alternative modalities such as herbalism, psychedelics, astrology, tarot, and Eastern philosophies. These experiences have deepened my understanding of healing and complement the tools offered by contemporary psychology.
