Paul Kaiser

I like to work with people who see themselves and possible unconscious conflicts as contributing to their discomfort.

Maya Benattar

Are you stuck in the same unhelpful and repetitive patterns? Your anxiety is affecting everything - work, relationships, your self-confidence. You feel like you're "too much" or "too sensitive" for everyone in your life. Talking about your feelings isn't really helping as much as you want it to. You ache for ease and relief. 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.

Logan Horng

I primarily work with college students and young adults, particularly those living with depression, anxiety, or ongoing life transitions. If you’re like one of my clients, you might be experiencing work or academic challenges, feeling stuck in an unfulfilling relationship, coming to terms with your sexuality, or learning to set boundaries with your family.

Jennifer Yalof

Oftentimes, people who contact me are managing feelings that have been building up over time. I have niche experience working with medical professionals such as physicians, nurses and medical trainees and directed a program at UNMC aimed at understanding burnout. I enjoy working with college and graduate students, international students, and did this at counseling centers like MIT. I especially like working with adults and new parents.

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.

Katarina Bennicoff Yundt

My goal for you is to become your most authentic self–intentional, empathetic, vibrant, and engaged with the world. For me healing is about ongoing evolution, reconnecting with yourself, finding inner peace, and feeling whole and worthy as you are. In our work together I will support you in reclaiming all parts of yourself with compassion. Sessions may involve discussion, guided movement, body exploration, meditation, breath work, writing, or art creation.

Sexual Misbehavior Absolute Expert James Foley

My clients seek a highly skilled and trained elite expert in this, and are willing to self pay to get that expertise. I help those with sexual misbehaviors change thinking and create better outcomes. 27 years of specialist experience and training have me bring high level insights and skills that non specialists do not have, all to help clients to create lasting change, faster improvements towards self management of this disorder, an improved mood, reduced risk. www.sexuallycompulsive.com

Jonathan Vargas

With 6+ years of experience, I have worked in a school setting and in private practice supporting clients individually and within groups. I have worked with clients to explore their identity, sexuality, strengths, self-esteem, environmental stressors, and interpersonal relationships, helping them to develop healthy boundaries and coping skills to use throughout their life’s many transitions.

Jennifer Coonce

Often times, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want in relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. I see patients who experience anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and other forms of unhappiness or dissatisfaction. I have had success with pre-teens, teens, adults, and couples.

Matt McDavid, LCSW

My ideal client is someone who feels the weight of doubt, but knows they’re meant for something more. They’re creative, insightful, and ready to explore their story, letting go of what no longer serves them. Together, we’ll uncover the strength within and create a life rooted in self-love, compassion and purpose. Imagine stepping into a future where you feel truly empowered, free from self-doubt, and deeply aligned with your values. The life you deserve starts here—your next chapter begins now.

Emily Wood

You’re there when everyone else needs you but feel stuck and anxious when it comes to doing things for yourself. Your cup is often empty and you know what will help but the guilt and fear of disappointing others gets in the way. You know your needs should matter but you have a hard time believing it. When you do finally get the time, you’re often not sure how to spend it with yourself so you stay busy. You’re tired, ready to finally invest time in yourself and make a change.

Caitlyn Pearson

You're trying your hardest to feel connected to your loved one(s) but instead you end up feeling the opposite. You're tired of overthinking and missing the mark. You might be experiencing the "what ifs" as I call them: "What if my partner is unable to meet my needs? Maybe they don't care to...What if breaking up is the best thing? Do they even love me?" I want you to wake up excited to spend the day with your partner...and actually enjoy the day together! Without any casual conversations turn

Laura Foxx

Many of my clients identify as Queer, Poly/ENM, Kink/SWers and seek to develop deeper self-awareness, connection to their identity, help with relationships, nervous system regulation, coping skills for resilience, and support processing trauma and other difficult experiences. If you are a therapist, healer, space holder, caregiver, or activist experiencing burnout, I am offering a Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy group in May that might be helpful to consider! laurafoxx.com/heal

Sydney Rose

Grief can impact every aspect of life: relationships, behaviors, thoughts and emotions. Emotional pain can make you dread going to sleep, waking up, eating and even interacting with loved ones. Losing a loved one, having a life dream shattered or learning something about yourself or a family member that shakes you to the core can feel incredibly isolating. But major losses in life can also open doors to big transformations. That's what therapy is for, it can help you get to the other side.

Viviana Del Aguila Niebylski

Many of us have had experiences that left a mark in our souls and bodies. While I don't believe in a cure or quick fix to ease such troubles, I do believe we can work together towards integrating and processing past experiences so that they may be more capably carried. I work with older adolescents, adults and older adults specializing in sexuality, navigating adulthood, cultivating authenticity and transmuting trauma.

Elsa Lau

Hi I’m Elsa (she/they), a NYC clinical psychologist specializing in life transitions, identity, and spirituality (meaning, purpose, and connection). I’m also passionate about serving communities that have historically experienced barriers to whole-person care including LGBTQ+, BIPOC, Asian American, and neurodivergent (gifted, 2e, autistic, highly sensitive) teens, adults, partners, and families of all kinds. Services I provide include therapy, assessment, consultation and training.

Kristopher Thorpe

Most of my work focuses on working with folks in the LGBTQIA spectrum to heal trauma, improve relationships, explore sex and develop a sense of wellbeing. During our initial sessions we will explore your life, your issues, and your goals to build a collaborative way forward. Throughout our work we will look to build insight and shine a light on all of the pieces that make you, you.

Annie Zheng

Clients I've worked with vary from depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, family conflict, and relationship concerns. The process allows you to enhance your quality of life through the process of discovery, exploration, and insight into experiences that have shaped you, address the presenting problems, and find more effective tools to navigate oncoming life and realities.

Maria Caspani

I strive to be your trusted guide at a time you might be questioning your journey, or you might simply need a steadying hand to walk a stretch of that journey alongside you.
