I am a licensed mental health counselor specializing in working with adolescents and young adults (ages 13 and older) across various biological, psychological, and social backgrounds. My goal is to help you understand yourself within the context of your unique life experiences as you navigate mental health struggles. These may include emotional/behavioral dysregulation, communication challenges, life transitions, academic/work stress, grief/bereavement, LGBTQAI+ issues, harm reduction in substance use, and other day-to-day life stressors. The therapeutic alliance between therapist and patient is the most important part of therapy, and I am passionate about building that foundation of trust with you. Working together, you can expect an empowering, non-judgmental environment with a little sense of humor sprinkled in. I use a warm, welcoming, and person-centered approach to meet you where you’re at in your healing journey, allowing me to tailor my style and interventions to your therapeutic goals and needs. These interventions include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal Behavior Therapy, and more structured approaches to best help you meet your therapeutic goals. My path to becoming a therapist began one week into college, when I decided to switch my major from studio art to psychology. The motivation to make this drastic change and give psychology a try came from my own intuition and feeling like I had natural qualities of empathy and introspection. This journey of self-discovery deepened my commitment to helping patients identify what a life worth living and feeling of purpose looks like for them. My journey led me to work in a community agency as a therapist, where I found that my patients’ demographics were very different from one another and, as such, deserved their own unique approaches and integrated mix of interventions. Now, I am passionate about bringing that same energy to my practice at SOL Mental Health! Outside of sessions, I like to enjoy a wide range of hobbies, such as painting, hiking, playing the ukulele, and going to live music concerts.

I work with relationship issues and sexuality, certified as a Relationship Therapist through the Gottman Institute of Seattle. I am also certified as a Sex Therapist through AASECT, the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists. Several years ago I realized I am autistic and now I address issues experienced by people who are autistic/ Asperger's or those who wonder whether they may carry that diagnosis. I also see people with other forms of neurodivergence such as ADHD. Originally I am from Boston and grew up in a working class family with a commitment to political activism. I am licensed in NY and FL as well as Oregon and Washington State. Although I offer some reduced fee spots I am sorry to say they are consistently full.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with an expertise in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and adults struggling with a wide range of issues including social and generalized anxiety, OCD, panic, depression, self-esteem and emotion-regulation. I also enjoy working with individuals going through significant life transitions, such as adjustment to college, parenting, or divorce. I primarily utilize a CBT approach while integrating mindfulness and other techniques to the work when appropriate. I employ an active, collaborative, and individualistic approach to treatment with a validating stance.

At Person-to-Person Psychotherapy, I’m here to support adults who are facing tough, life-changing challenges. Many of the people I work with are dealing with things like a serious health diagnosis, overwhelming anxiety, big existential questions, major life transitions, or deep feelings of grief and loss. They’re looking for a space where they can feel understood and get the professional support they need to find their footing again and make sense of it all. Through virtual sessions and walk-and-talk therapy, I’m able to meet clients wherever they are—both physically and emotionally—throughout New Jersey.

Hello, I help people with gaining clarity and understanding of themselves, their future, purpose, and meaning. Additionally, I can be helpful dealing with challenges in the present that get in the way of getting where you want to go. Sometimes it can be difficult to connect with our brigheness or gold and it takes an exploration of what is dark or shadowy in our lives or in ourselves to get to a place where we can shine once again. I have experience with this as well. Please reach out to ask any questions or find out more about what I have to offer.

As a licensed clinical psychologist in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I am dedicated to providing evidence-based care to adolescents, emerging adults, and adults navigating a variety of challenges. My therapeutic approach focuses on creating a safe, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can feel truly heard and supported. I tailor treatment to meet each person's unique needs, working together with you to foster meaningful, lasting change. I also collaborate with other professionals involved in your care and communicate with family members when you choose to include them in the process. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), two proven approaches that help individuals build practical coping skills, manage emotions, and develop healthier ways of thinking and acting. I also have advanced training in trauma-focused therapies and am certified in Prolonged Exposure Therapy, a specialized treatment for PTSD.

It’s easy to feel stuck or broken when we’ve never had the space to allow all of our emotions, the support to feel them safely, and the perspective to view ourselves with compassion. But when we finally get those things, we get to evolve, grow and change in ways that can be truly profound. My job isn’t to force you to do anything, but to help you learn and build what you’ve needed, so that you can evolve in the ways you want to. If I can count on you to teach me about yourself, about what you feel, and what you're hoping for, you can count on me to listen, and to offer options for how we can pursue your goals. I offer an open approach that includes you in deciding what we do and why, so we can be sure we're working in ways that are both understandable and meaningful to you. So far, this approach has led to clear results for people experiencing PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and recent traumas. As we collaborate, I can provide additional support via methods like EMDR, IFS, EAET, mindfulness, exposure, and body-based therapies. Call or email any time.

I have been in private practice for over thirty years in the same location. Over the years I have worked extensively with adolescents and young adults transitioning from high school to college. The services I have provided included both psychotherapy and evaluation services (i.e. ADHD, learning disabilities). I frequently provide ongoing support for clients who began with me in high school and successfully entered into college, but who want or need help addressing the unique challenges that college presents, and moving into post-college life.

Making the choice to pursue therapy is an investment in yourself. Therapy is a journey that is shaped by the relationship established between the therapist and the client. Regardless of how the pursuit of therapy evolved, I aim to establish a relationship based on trust, honesty, humor, and respect. These qualities are imperative in working through the difficulties that can disrupt life and relationships. Together we will work toward the fulfillment of your goals and potential.

I specialize in sleep difficulties, anxiety, nightmares, and trauma. I have a passion for helping people achieve their mental health goals and regain the energy and focus they need to achieve their goals and ambitions. I have seen evidence-based practices for insomnia, nightmares and trauma begin to alleviate debilitating symptoms in a very short amount of time. Whether you have been suffering for 3 months or 3 decades, I have witnessed people recover and regain a quality of their lives they thought was lost. Since recovery can be abrupt and dramatic for some, I also address adjustment to your sense of identity and grief associated with the many losses these struggles have caused. My style is interactive and direct, and I am passionate about helping clients work through areas where they feel stuck and hopeless. I understand how sleep issues, trauma, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal conflicts can make every day a struggle. One of my greatest joys is witnessing a client regain hope and recognize the ripple effect the one small change they made will have on their lives. We will work together to discover your strengths, learn new skills, and use them to create positive, lasting change.

Fayetteville, NY

Hello! My name is Ruth, I'm a Queer, Cis-Woman, and I use She/Her pronouns. Have you found it hard to find a therapist you connect with? Do you need to find someone that is nonjudgmental, empathic, helps you feel at ease, and shares your sense of humor? As a first generation college student myself, college was a challenge. My therapist helped me through. I learned mental health is as important as physical health. With over 9 years experience working with college students, I have really enjoyed helping young adults navigate this interesting, challenging time. Have you been told you're "too sensitive"? Are you longing to be seen and understood? Do you need to learn how to communicate more assertively, increase your coping and calming strategies, or explore your childhood or family trauma? Are you questioning your identity, gender, or sexuality? I am Trauma-informed, Body Positive, Health at Every Size, and Sex Positive. I enjoy working with clients who are members of the LGBTQIA+ community. If you need an assessment and letter for Gender Affirming Surgery, I would be happy to provide this service. Reaching out is an important first step! We can schedule a 15 minute free consultation to see if we are a good fit. Life can be so much better!

At Solstice, NP in Psychiatry & Family Health, PLLC, we provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care for college students and adults navigating stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and life transitions. College can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. Academic pressure, relationships, family expectations, identity development, burnout, loneliness, and uncertainty about the future can all impact emotional well-being. Our goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where students feel heard, understood, and empowered to take the next step in their mental health journey. We offer psychiatric evaluations, medication management, brief supportive therapy, and full therapy sessions with our on-staff Licensed Mental Health Counselor. This allows us to offer more complete, coordinated care and a range of treatment options based on each student’s individual needs. Care is collaborative, practical, and personalized, with attention to the whole person — emotional health, physical health, sleep, lifestyle, academics, relationships, stressors, and personal goals. Whether a student is seeking support for the first time, continuing care from home, or transitioning from pediatric or campus-based services, we aim to make treatment feel approachable and supportive. Our approach is grounded in science and guided by compassion. Services are available by telehealth throughout New York State, with in-person appointments available in Gardiner, NY. We look forward to supporting you! -Jennifer Hoben, PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC, Founder -Jennifer Dipalo-Foley, LMHC
