Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!
In addition to being a LMHC in the state of NY, I'm also just a human gal navigating life alongside 2 doodles and a cat; creating and interacting with nature plays an important role in my life, but before you think I'm just a calm collected artist haunting the woods mysteriously, I'm also known for sitting on a comfy chair for way too long, re-watching the same shows from the early 2000s, and collecting copious amounts of craft and art supplies that I swear I will use someday.
Hello! I'm Miri Salamone Burnett, and I'm here to be a direct, compassionate, and collaborative partner in your journey toward change.
I specialize in helping adults, elders, couples, and families who are struggling with Trauma, Stress disorders, navigating Addiction and Recovery, and addressing complex Mood and Relationship Challenges (including anxiety, depression, grief, and family conflict). My goal is simple: to help you move past what’s holding you back and build lasting resilience. I offer services in English and intermediate Spanish.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Bilingual School Psychologist with 17 years of psychotherapy experience and 20 years working as a school psychologist. This background gives me a deep understanding of how emotional patterns develop across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, and how past experiences continue to shape a person’s current challenges.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in the corporate sector. That experience allows me to understand the pressures, expectations, and identity struggles faced by working professionals, especially those dealing with anxiety, burnout, and relationship stress.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and identity‐related concerns. I work effectively with millennials, Gen Z, Gen X, and baby boomers — anyone navigating change, uncertainty, or a sense of not fitting in. Born and raised in New York City, I bring a grounded, compassionate, and down‐to‐earth presence to therapy. I offer sessions in both English and Spanish and strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore, heal, and grow.
I’m a trauma-informed therapist, leader, and advocate with over a decade of experience supporting children, families, and adults navigating life after hard things.
My work is rooted in helping people heal from trauma, manage anxiety and stress, and rebuild a sense of identity and stability during major life transitions. I specialize in working with individuals who carry a lot caregivers, professionals, survivors of interpersonal trauma, and people from historically marginalized communities who are often used to being strong for everyone else. I also specialize in addressing and healing generational trauma for black communities.

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.
