Find therapists in East Rockaway

Jonnaye Rivera

I am open to working with clients from all ethnic cultures and backgrounds. I've worked with children, young adults, adults, and families. As an Afro-Latina, I understand the importance of wanting a multicultural competent therapist. Many of my clients see me for help in areas such as self-esteem, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, depression, and life transitions. I help my clients develop coping skills, gain clarity on the past, and become empowered to embrace their future.

Angela Coen

I love working with clients who are navigating issues of self-love and radical self-acceptance. Whether the turmoil is coming from family, social media, world news, or current lifestyles, wanting to obtain a balance is the first place to start! I want my clients to feel safe and get the unconditional respect they deserve, especially from themselves. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety and depression and are trying to find their place in the world.

Sarah Dolan

I have experience with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. Their concerns and needs have included anxiety, communication, boundary-setting, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, and life transitions. The populations I best serve are children and young adults, ages 10 to 35. From my past work with children and teens, I connect well with that group. In my experiences at Humantold and Greenpoint Psychotherapy practices, I was able to connect with clients under 40 years old.

Sarah Chung

I work with clients who are struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, grief, and addictions. As a woman of color, I also strive to help clients process trauma around immigration, acculturation, and systemic oppression. Many clients I've worked with seek support in identity exploration. They are looking to better understand themselves and work on a deeper level of introspection.

Kaela Ason

I primarily work with millennial and Gen Z women who are ready to break free from inherited and personal burdens that have held them back. Together, we work to uncover and challenge the narratives that no longer serve them, empowering them to reclaim their sense of power and self-worth. My goal is to help these women step into their authentic selves, build resilience, and create a life that aligns with their values and aspirations.

Nikki Townsend

I work with young children and adults who are motivated to make positive changes in their everyday life. I work with a wide range of mental health challenges such as life transitions, substance use and addiction, anxiety, or depression. This could be someone who feels like they don't fit into a specific place in this world, feels lost, struggling to find their identity in their teenage years, or has fear and anxiety controlling their life.

Jillian Elbaum

If you woke up one day, looked in the mirror, and decided that today was the day you were going to make a change, that today was the day you were no longer going to accept living with a dark cloud following you around, then you are the client for me! I specialize in clients who are on the precipice of something big. Together, we will work on improving your communication skills, identifying your strengths and values, and using mindfulness techniques to bring you back to yourself.

Sage Kramer-Urner

I work with individuals who are searching for a collaborative experience to help them find clarity and understanding in their everyday challenges. I take pride in providing affirming therapy for neurodivergent and LGBTQ clients. My clients are complex individuals experiencing pain in response to systemic barriers, who benefit from the support of a clinician who acknowledges these inequities. My eclectic style best fits clients who are looking for a nuanced approach to lasting healing.

Tess Nagle

I am open to working with all different populations, embracing the therapeutic experience in whatever way that looks like for them. I know therapy can often be extremely challenging for many, especially those who have experienced trauma, so all I ask of a client is that they are open-minded and willing to put in the work that it takes to heal.

Ashley Temple

I enjoy working with clients who want to reflect on relationship patterns starting from early development to present day that have led to a less confident core sense of self. They often feel their emotions are overwhelming or get in the way of relationships. Relationships really matter to my clients, but they find they are extremely challenging to navigate. My clients often hold identities of unworthiness, expectations of failure, demands for perfect performance, and ongoing acute shame.

Madeline Eggenberger

I work with individuals who are tired of feeling like life is happening to them and wants to take the reins. They may be struggling with stress, lack of confidence, relationships, anxiety, motivation, personal identity, or difficult life transitions. They are seeking security, confidence, and happiness and want to reach their fullest potential. They are willing to dig deep into self-reflection and want to learn skills to self-soothe, think more positively, and communicate better with others.

Brianna Furer

I have always felt my purpose in life was to help others. My ideal clients are actively seeking change in their lives to improve their well-being. Their goals should involve personal growth, setting/changing boundaries to improve their interpersonal relationships, understanding and learning skills to cope with family dynamics, and practicing skills to reduce the intensity or prevalence of symptoms resulting from mental distress.

Laura Matunas

I work primarily with persons with a history of sexual assault and other traumas. Their issues are pervasive and complex, experiencing an array of symptoms and potential triggers such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, self-harm, flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, enuresis, sleep disturbance, anger, panic attacks, and more. These clients want to navigate life without fear and regain a sense of purpose and safety. Often, they want to find the will to live and quiet suicidal thoughts.

Kristen Amato

I specialize in life transitions, relationships, personal growth, school or career challenges and all that comes with it. We go through many phases in our lives, each with their own joys and struggles, I help clients identify their strengths, and their purpose, providing support, encouragement and insight along the way.

Amber Pitoniak

Although open to all individuals, my ideal focus in therapy is working with adult clients experiencing trauma related to grief, loss, and bereavement. Broadly, this may encompass grief related to the loss of a loved one, coping with a recent diagnosis, life-limiting illness, or other major life event. My approach uses interfaith spirituality and counseling, which can help those in traumatic experiences, but also help those going through existential and spiritual challenges.

Erinne Gibson

Clients I serve are between the ages of 12-55, male and female, who are looking to identify and change challenging behaviors and thought patterns. I incorporate parts work and body based techniques in combination with cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, and skill building strategies to help clients find a better sense of fulfillment in their lives. After my own trauma I turned to substances and other things outside myself and can empathize with what it takes to make yourself whole again.

Ashley Chan

I hope to serve those seeking to strengthen their connection with themselves and those around them by empowering their authentic identity. The stressors of everyday life can become overwhelming with the uncertainty of tomorrow. We quickly become filled with anxiety when feeling unprepared for these uncertainties. With our bodies designed for survival, symptoms of anxiety become easily integrated into our daily life, creating the cognitive distortion that life is bleak and unfulfilling.

Lexi La Shelle

My ideal clients are men and women ages 22-31 and older of all different sexual and religious identities. Together, we will navigate young adulthood, transitioning from college to “adulting,” cultural transitions, aging parents, grief and loss, relationships, starting a family, careers, moving, self-esteem, body image, health-related concerns, infertility and infidelity.

Linda Robinson

My ideal client would be someone who is motivated to find contentment and peace. They may not understand what it looks like or how to reach it, but they are willing to put in the effort. It can be difficult to recognize what fulfills us at first, but willingness to open up and accept guidance is a very powerful start. Ideally, mothers who are struggling with everyday issues such as juggling work, family and relationships are the clients that I would love to be able to work with.
