Therapist

Virtual • New York


Are you feeling overwhelmed by relationship stress, anxiety, or the pressures of navigating early adulthood? I work with young adult women across New York via telehealth who want to better understand their relationship patterns, manage anxiety, and feel more grounded in their day-to-day lives.

With 8 years of experience providing individual and couples therapy, my work is informed by Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy, approaches that help uncover the emotional and relational patterns that shape how we connect with others. Together, we explore how past experiences, attachment styles, and current stressors influence your relationships and emotional well-being.

As a first-generation immigrant from NYC, I bring a culturally responsive perspective to conversations around identity, family expectations, and navigating different cultural worlds.

I currently offer a short-term therapy model (8 sessions) designed to help clients gain insight, develop practical tools, and create meaningful shifts in how they relate to themselves and others. At the end of the initial course, we can revisit progress and determine whether extending to 10–12 sessions would be helpful.

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 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.
