My clients are often young professionals in their 20's, 30's & 40's looking for more clarity, balance & ease. Perhaps you're more anxious or irritable than usual. Maybe your relationships aren't going the way you'd like. Perhaps issues around your identity have come up recently that you'd like to get more clarity on.

Liz Silverman

I work with young adults and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, issues related to drugs or alcohol, and those recovering and healing from trauma. I have supported individuals in exploring their gender and sexuality and embrace non-binary, trans, and queer identities. I also specialize in perinatal, postpartum, and parental mental health. Many of my clients are mental health care providers themselves, who need clinical supervision or emotional support.

Dr. Cynthia Giocomarra

Are you looking for a therapist that actually "gets it"? Do you feel anxiety first thing in the morning, randomly throughout the day, or just before bed? Do you experience fear or panic reconnecting with friends, family, and coworkers since the pandemic hit? Are you in the process of (or thinking about) coming out and feel unsure of how to go forward? Are you wanting to restructure your life in a more meaningful way but not sure what your new life can look like? I can assist you. Let's talk.

Cate Hickey

Clients who find me tend to be seeking a place to unpack current difficulties, identify problem areas and explore previous emotional injuries. Clients tend to stay to gain understanding, develop self awareness and take control where they feel disempowered. I work with clients of different gender identities, relationship structures, sexualities, economic and occupational backgrounds.

Robin Friedman

I work with clients to help them understand and heal from the legacy of trauma. My clients come to me having experienced a wide array of symptoms that can range from difficulties with the ability to trust others to feelings of anxiety or hyper-vigilance to feelings of hopelessness. Many of my clients may be experiencing difficulties with attention, bouts of depression or irritability, as well as struggling with feelings of shame and unworthiness, and perhaps a loss of interest in life.

Jennifer Zigler

People often come to see me when they are feeling exhausted and overwhelmed by anxiety. They have been pushing themselves to get everything "just right" and taking on way too many tasks and activities while feeling powerless to set boundaries with their time and energy. It's hard to ask for help, but it's possible to find more freedom and ease. We can work together to figure out how.

Margaret Morrow

Sometimes life is really hard and we need a space to express our thoughts, feelings and experiences that continue to hurt today. Possibly you have experienced a trauma or stressful event that still impacts you. You may be depressed, anxious or are having problems in your relationships or at work. Perhaps you are struggling with managing your stress and know that something needs to change but you aren’t sure what steps to take. Therapy is a safe place to learn new strategies to heal.

Maya Benattar

You're tired of being stuck in the same unhelpful patterns. Anxiety affects everything - your work, your relationships, your self-confidence. You feel like you're "too much" or "too sensitive" for everyone in your life. I can help. I work with women who are ready to get unstuck from unhelpful patterns, heal long-held anxiety and trauma, and show up authentically and unapologetically.

Online Therapy

Claire Cornelio

Sometimes, we can get so overwhelmed that we're not quite sure where to go or what to do to make things feel better. I want you to know that you've taken the wonderful first step to come here, and I applaud you for doing that. Sometimes, seeking help can be equally challenging as finding it. I hope to be able to assist you in handling these difficult struggles so they don't become insurmountable.

You were just staring at your work calendar.Here’s what you do know is that your venti vanilla pumpkin foam cold brew adds 2 shots is lukewarm at best because you don’t know how to schedule a lunch and take a sip of what you need (emotionally and literally). Resentment grows in that secret closet in your brain until it unleashes like a mental forest fire.
