I specialize in mood disorders, dual diagnosis, and personality disorders, and I bring deep personal motivation to this work — mental illness has touched my own family, and that experience shapes how I show up for every client. I know how prevalent it is, and I believe with my whole heart that there is no shame in struggling or in seeking help. My greatest strengths are patience and a genuine drive to help people transform how they feel and rediscover that life can be better. Outside of sessions, I enjoy thrifting, exploring new foods, and spending time outdoors with my family.

Psychoanalytic therapy is often maligned but it remains for me one of the few treatments that seeks to address the innermost, often hidden, parts of ourselves. Psychological symptoms are not only a source of suffering, they are also a message that speaks to desires, conflicts, and pain that comes alive when spoken to a professional listener. The flip-side of anxiety is always a passionate dream that has not been encountered as such. The intimacy of speaking and listening is rare and a gift.

I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor and a certified yoga instructor. I love working with clients that are motivated to change and become the best version of themselves! I enjoy working with clients that are ready to break unhealthy habits and unlearn negative thoughts and behaviors that keep us away from our true happiness and identity.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience treating adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and mood disorders. I work especially well with high-functioning professionals and women facing life transitions, burnout, or generational patterns. My background includes leadership and program development, and I bring both clinical expertise and real-world understanding into my work.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by relationship stress, anxiety, or the pressures of navigating early adulthood? I work with young adult women across New York via telehealth who want to better understand their relationship patterns, manage anxiety, and feel more grounded in their day-to-day lives.

With 9 years of experience providing individual and couples therapy, my work is informed by Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy, approaches that help uncover the emotional and relational patterns that shape how we connect with others. Together, we explore how past experiences, attachment styles, and current stressors influence your relationships and emotional well-being.

As a first-generation immigrant from NYC, I bring a culturally responsive perspective to conversations around identity, family expectations, and navigating different cultural worlds.

I currently offer a short-term therapy model (8 sessions) designed to help clients gain insight, develop practical tools, and create meaningful shifts in how they relate to themselves and others. At the end of the initial course, we can revisit progress and determine whether extending to 10–12 sessions would be helpful.

Hi, I’m Amanda Sifonte, LCSW. I work with teens, adults, and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, chronic health conditions, grief, and life transitions.

Using a collaborative and individualized approach, I tailor treatment to your unique needs and goals, helping you build practical skills, gain insight, and move toward lasting growth and well-being.

I'm Laura Galasso, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over six years of experience working with children, teens, families and young adults. My background spans school-based mental health, outpatient settings, and private practice. I specialize in trauma-informed care, anxiety, depression, and supporting clients through life transitions.

I like to help my clients recreate their narrative through expressive forms of art. In my practice I've only ever had clients who were visionaries. After all, aren't visionaries those who see things others don't see ... yet? Here's to system redesign!

As a warm, open-minded, and empowering therapist, I am dedicated to helping adults and families navigate life's most complex challenges. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling and bring a robust professional background working across diverse clinical settings, specializing in treating anxiety, sleep disorders, identity exploration, relationships, and bipolar disorders. In my practice, I frequently serve populations navigating cultural or ethnic issues, men’s issues, and individuals healing from trauma or substance abuse. On a personal note, my commitment to mental health stems from my own lived experiences navigating difficult life transitions, which gives me a genuine, human understanding of how intimidating it can be to take this first step toward healing.
