Are you struggling with anxiety or existential angst after a major life change?

Are you struggling to form deep connections due to confusion and low confidence about your identity and purpose? Well, you have come to the right place!

Assent Decisions is a group of behavioral and physical health professionals, rehabilitation specialists, university professors, instructors, educators, and other trained professionals.

As a Licensed Masters of Social Work, I have extensive experience providing therapy to individuals in various hospital and mental health settings. Valuing emotional safety, compassion, and empathy, I work collaboratively with clients to achieve their goals. Recognizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship, I work alongside clients to identify, understand and work through personal challenges. This can include, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, PTSD, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and adjustment. Believing evidence informs practice, I understand that it is the individual who is the expert of their experience.. Having extensive experience in clinical settings, including pre/post partum, I recognize the impact not only on the individual but their loved ones. I am both certified and proficient in various evidenced-based interventions, including Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. You do not need to work through personal challenges alone. Psychotherapy can help in understanding the personal experience, promoting wellness and achieving goals. I believe it is privilege to be a part of someone else’s journey. My goal to create a supportive, judgment-free space, to allow us to work collaboratively and promote healing.

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here! Pursuing therapy can be an intimidating but ultimately life-changing experience. I'm grateful you're here moving forward with care that resonates with you and your goals. My name is Yvonne (she/her). I’m a first-generation Latina therapist with a background in the arts. I've studied clinical social work at Fordham University and gained experience in psychiatric hospitals, crisis hotlines, child welfare, and private practice. I specialize in working with clients who are working through depression, anxiety, relationship/dating dynamics, life transitions, family dynamics, and race-related stress. I’m a kink-friendly therapist and LGBTQIA+ allied. The best next step is for you to book a free, brief call with me to share a little bit more about what brings you to therapy and for me to share about my experience so that together, we can confirm our fit. I am currently in network with Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and United Healthcare. For anyone with out-of-network benefits, I can assist with the paperwork necessary for reimbursement. I am only accepting clients age 18+ at this time. I look forward to meeting you and beginning our work together soon!

Hi there, I'm Alexa, and I'm glad you're here! Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, or exploring your identity as an adolescent or young adult in the LGBTQIA+ community, I'm here to walk alongside you. My experience in settings like a college crisis center, emergency foster care, and psychiatric residential centers has shaped my approach — compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. In our work together, we'll focus on helping you feel more grounded, connected, and empowered as you move toward the life you want. I believe therapy should feel personal to you-it is your treatment, after all! That's why I take a person-centered approach, meeting you with warmth, curiosity, and without judgment. I draw from psychodynamic theories, along with tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Expressive Arts to support your growth. I believe our healing is tied to environmental, political, social, and economic factors- and feel it is my responsibility as a therapist to hold each client within the larger context of their lived experiences. We all have a unique capacity for growth and healing, and I am eager to support you on your journey!
My guide in counseling is to create a safe and welcoming environment that promotes autonomy, open and honest communication and support to be who you are, where you are while working on where you want to be. For many, the notion of therapy implies that “something is wrong” when it is quite the opposite. The clarity it takes to acknowledge, accept and receive therapy or ‘mind maintenance’ as I like to call it, means you are self-aware, and there is nothing wrong with that. I specialize in a bad day with academic stress, social anxiety and depression but I can also work with a good day!
Amidst the chaos and pressure of academic life, we know how working towards your goals can become overwhelming. No one teaches us the most effective way to think about our problems. This is what Citron Hennessey specializes in. Our practice offers the very highest quality evidence-based therapy service so you don't just feel better but actually get better! We provide solution-focused individual and couples counseling, please get in touch for a free initial phone consultation

I specialize in working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds (BIPOC & LGBTQ+ adults) who are navigating life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management, identity exploration (racial, sexual, and gender), abuse, and internalized shame. You don’t have to carry it all alone, shrink yourself, or show up perfectly—I’m here to offer a supportive, affirming space where you can show up authentically, be seen, and heal in a way that feels aligned with your values. As a Black, queer, Afro-traditional spiritualist, my work is deeply rooted in love, liberation, and wellness. I believe healing is both a personal and collective journey—one that calls for self-exploration, connection, and the unlearning of narratives that no longer serve us. My approach blends personal wisdom with professional expertise, allowing me to support clients in understanding how systemic oppression and interpersonal experiences shape their daily lives. I am passionate about creating spaces where people can reclaim their autonomy, heal from trauma, and redefine their narratives in ways that honor their truth. I believe that transformation happens when we feel safe enough to show up fully as ourselves, and I strive to cultivate that safety for every client I work with. If you're seeking a space to explore, heal, and step into your power, I’d be honored to walk alongside you! If you’re interested in reinviting balance and harmony back into your life, please feel free to send an email to awilhite@therapyinsghtspractice.com so that we can discuss further.

Through careful listening and an empathic, honest approach I can help you feel better about yourself and your life. You may feel stuck in a job or relationship, or overly stressed with the demands of school. You may want more from life but not know how to get it. You may be struggling with with the difficulties of parenthood or marriage. I can help with artistic, creative, or intellectual struggles, body issues, sexual problems, substance issues, imbalances of life and work, impulse control, past trauma, or even just a general lack of inspiration or motivation in life. The goal is always to feel better about love and work. I welcome adult individuals and adolescents into my practice, with a focus on college students. My work is psychoanalytically informed but pragmatic, and it is important to me to get to know my patients well and to spend time working collaboratively through their needs. I hold master's and doctorate degrees in clinical psychology from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, CA and completed my psychoanalytic training at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research in New York. My private practice office is located in Union Square in Manhattan, and in the coming months I'll be opening an office in the Hudson Valley area of upstate New York.

Dwellness provides in-home therapeutic services to individuals and families across the lifespan via home-based and teletherapy practices. Our clinicians specialize in different developmental periods and therapeutic techniques, which allows for an individualized treatment approach to address each client’s challenges. We believe that therapy should be accessible and translatable to the way one dwells. Bringing psychotherapy into the home gives us the opportunity to help clients shape for the better an environment that often profoundly influences feelings of safety, comfort, and love. We aim to collaborate with clients, to draw upon their inherent resilience and resources and let go of what is in their way, in real time, in the environment in which they experience it. Together we can rebuild or redesign the emotional foundation of the home and cultivate new ways to relate to one another. Our clinicians, ranging from post-doctoral psychologists, social workers, mental health counselors, and creative arts therapists, specialize in different developmental periods and therapeutic techniques, which allows for an individualized treatment approach to address each client’s challenges.
