Anxiety & Stress Management Therapy · NYC
Anxiety therapy in NYC for people who want results, not years of talking.
Solution-focused, action-forward sessions for professionals whose stress and anxiety have started running the show.
A practical approach
If your mind won't switch off, your sleep is slipping, or work pressure follows you everywhere, you don't need open-ended therapy with no direction. You need a clear plan. As an anxiety therapist in NYC, I combine CBT tools with practical insight so you get relief you can use this week, and understand why it works.

Common questions
How quickly will I feel a difference?+
Many clients leave the first sessions with a strategy to try right away. Because we set specific goals early, progress is easier to see and measure.
Is this CBT?+
CBT is a core part of my approach, combined with insight-oriented work so changes last instead of just managing symptoms.
Do you take insurance?+
This is a private-pay practice. That means no insurance-driven diagnosis requirements, no session caps, and a plan built around your goals. Ask about out-of-network options during your consultation.
Do you offer online therapy?+
Yes. Sessions are online, so you can meet from home, the office or a quiet corner between meetings. I'm licensed in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, and a NYC office is coming soon.
