You’re successful on the outside—but inside, something still feels stuck. You’ve done the work. You understand your patterns. You know what should help. And yet, anxiety, burnout, overwhelm, or old emotional loops keep showing up. It can feel frustrating, even discouraging, to have so much insight but still feel like you can’t fully shift.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning, self-aware individuals who feel caught in what I call a “mental and nervous system loop”—where insight alone isn’t enough to create real, lasting change.
This is where our work begins.
I believe that therapy can be a place to be known and understood. My focus is on folks who are looking for support to manage anxiety, depression, life transitions, intergenerational family challenges, and relationships. I work with creatives, people who find themselves in caretaker roles at work or in their relationships who would like to improve their experiences, and people interested in changing self-defeating patterns.
As a therapist, it is my goal address your needs via a strengths-based approach. I am here to help you process the emotions, thoughts, and life events that may be causing you anxiety, depression, or other painful symptoms. My specialty is in supporting survivors of childhood, domestic, relational, or sexual abuse. I believe that, no matter your story, true psychological healing is possible through the self-trust that we will build for you in therapy.
My clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed and isolated in their experiences, but after working together, they often feel more empowered and less alone. My Caribbean heritage has shaped my worldview and instilled in me a strong sense of compassion. By drawing on the wisdom of our ancestors and the strength of our communities, we can navigate life's challenges with resilience and hope. I specialize in supporting clients who feel as if they are barely holding it together.

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.
