Since the beginning of my career as a mental health professional, I have practiced with one main idea at the core of all my work: healing is not linear. Whether this is your first time searching for new ways to heal, or you’re an experienced client of psychotherapy, I first and foremost hope you’ll allow yourself to feel gratitude for all the work you’ve done to get to where you are right now in your life’s journey.

Raven Aponte

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I believe therapy should bring you closer to yourself. My role is to help you understand what has shaped you, recognize the patterns that keep you stuck, and build greater trust in your own judgment.

I work with adults who want to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the ways past experiences continue to influence their present lives. My style is warm, direct, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. I make room for complexity while also challenging the patterns and protections that may no longer serve you.

Our work is not about becoming a “better” version of yourself. It is about knowing yourself well enough to make choices that reflect who you are, what you value, and how you want to live.

Therapist

Virtual • New York


In my practice I believe in integration of mind and body to provide the healing strategies to overcome depression, anxiety, trauma, mood lability, addiction, relationship with food and difficult life transitions. Sometimes people feel stuck in old patterns of behavior and weighed down by previous negative experiences. I focus on providing clinical support to clients who would like to achieve higher potential in their life, career, sports and overall life balance and well being.

I am able to provide psychological evaluations for bariatric surgeries and clinical support through the process of weight loss, changes in life style and relationship with food. I understand that every person is unique in their needs. I tailor my approach to each individual needs and focus on mind and body connection as well relationship with food and its effect on mood and energy.

As a former competitive athlete, I also assist athletes with providing them with mental tools to perform at their highest level or coming back from their sport-related injuries.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a 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.
