Online Therapy

in New York

Make therapy fit into your busy life with online appointments and flexible scheduling

No matter where you live in New York, therapy can come to you.

With online appointments and morning, afternoon, and evening appointment times, we can make therapy fit into your busy schedule.

But is it the same as in person?

Online therapy and in person are therapy are different, but it doesn’t mean that one is better or worse. I often hear from clients that the accessibility that online therapy provides, is a tremendous perk. That they meet for 50 minutes out of their day, but wouldn’t be able to do that PLUS drive to and from an office. They say that they’re able to fit online sessions into their already busy lives and they appreciate that convenience.

In therapy, many difficult, sensitive topics are often discussed. Doing so from the comfort of your own home can make being vulnerable feel safer. If you have concerns about online therapy, your therapist will help you come up with a plan that honors and meets your needs.

Whether you are in New York City, Rochester, or a small town in the Hudson Valley, online therapy gives you access to the support you need, when you need it.

Does this sound like you?

You are overwhelmed with your daily life. Balancing work, pleasure, and maintaining a house…You want to start therapy but you don’t know how to fit it into your already busy life. You can’t imagine adding one more thing onto your plate. What if by adding therapy onto your plate, you gain the skills, insight, and awareness in order to better manage the other things on your plate? AND maybe even learn to prioritize them without feeling guilty or learn how to ask for help without feeling like a burden.
