If you are experiencing barriers that are keeping you from having a fulfilling life, I urge you to seek psychotherapy. I am experienced in crisis counseling, individual therapy, substance abuse and group work. I have training in PTSD, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Mindful Self Compassion. I use IFS and self compassion to address anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, relationship issues and other life challenges.
Life begins when you know who you are. But the path to self-knowledge can be fraught and hard to find. “Be yourself,” “create yourself,” “find yourself”–these are some of the injunctions that might waylay any earnest seeker. When we learn to sit with the uncomfortable parts of self–the parts that make us want to crawl out of our skin–revelation can occur.
Talk therapy can be a place to learn how to be interested in ourselves and in our past. When we learn to love ourselves the way we wish to be loved, our relationships can flourish. We can deepen our genuine interest in others. When it works, psychotherapy can inspire incredible capacity and resolve to bend towards the future and embrace change

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Yonkers, NY
Searching for therapists in Yonkers starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists can support concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match what you want to focus on. A bio can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Yonkers offers access to therapists across neighborhoods like Getty Square, Nodine Hill, and Larkspur, with additional virtual options available across New York. If commute time, transit access, or office location matters, in-person appointments near home or work may be a good fit. If your schedule changes often, virtual sessions may give you more flexibility. Before booking, review each therapist’s availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they describe their session style.
Therapy in Yonkers 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 search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare bios, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.
