Hi, I’m Julia, and I’m passionate about helping people find strength, clarity, and balance in their lives. I’ve been working in the field for over twenty years, with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, seniors, and parents through life’s many transitions. I’m a graduate of Columbia University, where I focused on working with children and families. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside clients from many different backgrounds as they work through both everyday stress and life’s biggest challenges.
I believe the structure of the therapeutic relationship can help people access their inner strengths and promote meaningful change. Therapy gives us space to pause, reflect, and make sense of how the different parts of our lives — our relationships, health, identity, and environment — impact our well-being. Together, we’ll sort through challenges, set realistic goals, and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded and empowered.
I believe in a collaborative approach between client and therapist. Together we can explore your strengths and challenges to identify meaningful goals and work towards improvement. You are an expert on yourself and your needs. I am here to listen, support you and give you tools to heal past traumas, strengthen interpersonal relationships and build resilience. As we explore your history and your aspirations, I will guide, teach and support you. We will examine patterns that no longer serve you so you can build a healthy relationship with yourself and with others.
I strive to create a safe and supportive environment. I work at your pace so you feel heard and respected. Reach out and we can explore this work together. I am currently offering teletherapy.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor and a certified yoga instructor. I love working with clients that are motivated to change and become the best version of themselves! I enjoy working with clients that are ready to break unhealthy habits and unlearn negative thoughts and behaviors that keep us away from our true happiness and identity.
Hi! I'm Lindsay. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in the field of Social Work for the past ten years. I have worked in a multitude of settings. I have worked with children as young as 4-5 years of age to older adults in their 70s. I have been working in telehealth medicine since December of 2019. I had previously worked in community health. My main focus has been anxiety disorders, but I also work with those experiencing symptoms of depression, stress, family issues/concerns, and relationship problems.
You might look fine on the outside, keeping up with work, showing up for others, managing everything, while internally feeling exhausted, anxious, or like you've lost the thread of who you actually are. If that resonates, you're in the right place. I work with adults who are stuck in patterns they can't seem to shift: overthinking, people-pleasing, chronic stress, burnout.
**I am a Board Certified-Telemental Health Provider who is prepared to provide tele-therapy services**. I have dedicated my over 25-year career to helping those I work with achieve their optimal mental health. I employ an eclectic approach informed by my extensive training in multiple approaches, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (especially Rational Emotive Therapy (REBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. My focus is individual therapy for those that are age 12 and up, but enjoy working with couples as well.
My approach is to form a partnership that is focused on goals that are collaboratively developed and mutually agreed upon. I am committed to providing a person-centered experience that fully realizes the skills and talents of the person I am working with as well as my own. I understand that rapport is the key to a successful helping relationship. Therefore, I offer a free 30 minute consultation prior to scheduling your first appointment. This can be done by phone, Skype, or in person. Just call to set one up! I look forward to hearing from you!

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in New York
Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
