I have extensive experience working with BIPOC folx, those with intersectional identities, people from diverse sexual and gender experiences, sex workers, kink/fetish, BDSM, and poly/ENM communities. I would love the opportunity to assist you on your mental health journey in reaching your desired goals. Sliding scale fee available.

Hi there! Have you ever felt like your thoughts are racing but the words just won't come out? Have you ever felt the anxiety of overthinking and overanalyzing? Or that despite knowing what you “should” do, making changes feels overwhelming? Perhaps you're navigating the complexities of interpersonal relationships, cultural identity, family expectations, or that persistent feeling that no one quite understands your experience. I want you to know that these feelings are deeply valid, and you're not alone in this journey. Taking this first step toward healing shows incredible courage, and thank you for considering sharing your story with me. I'm Toni, a first-year Master's student in Social Work at Columbia University, building upon my foundation in my bachelor’s degree in Applied Psychology from NYU. I believe in creating a genuine and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself. My approach combines warmth and gentle humor with practical strategies, creating a space where both healing and growth can flourish. While my foundation combines client-centered therapy with CBT and an existential approach, I believe in adapting therapeutic approaches to what works best for you. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach, I draw from various modalities to create a personalized therapeutic experience that aligns with your needs and goals. Together, we'll work on transforming overwhelming thoughts into manageable steps, building confidence in your decisions, and helping you feel more grounded in who you are. As a 1.5 generation Asian American therapist-in-training, I bring both professional training and personal understanding to our sessions, especially when it comes to navigating cultural expectations, family dynamics, and the unique pressures of straddling multiple identities. I create a trauma-informed, culturally affirming space where you can explore these experiences openly and draw strength from your heritage. Your story matters, and I'm here to listen with empathy, understanding, and zero judgment. Let's collaborate on your journey toward healing and self-discovery, celebrating each step forward while honoring your unique experiences and strengths. Toni Yu is a therapist-in-training at Sol Health. Sol Health is a digital health startup that offers $30 therapy to Gen Zs by connecting them with therapists-in-training accruing clinical hours.
Hello! I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 8 years of counseling experience. My expertise lies in helping people achieve their goals of stress reduction, improved coping skills, communication, and self-esteem. My eclectic approach includes extensive knowledge in cognitive behavioral, client-centered, and trauma-informed therapy modalities. As an Afro-Latina myself, I know that having a culturally-sensitive therapist is very important to ensure that clients feel heard and supported in sessions. I believe in creating a space of acceptance and unconditional positive regard in order to foster self-acceptance and healing. My therapeutic style is warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental. I am a firm believer in starting where you are at and establishing a strong therapeutic relationship to achieve your goals. I will tailor my therapeutic style to your needs as I gain a deeper understanding of your concerns and goals. I prefer to work with patients that are open to becoming more self-aware and learn coping skills to manage their mental health. In our first session, I will establish a therapeutic working relationship with you and ask you what brings you in to counseling. If you think we might be a good fit, please reach out! I am part of the Path referral network, which means that when you reach out, my team will get back to you quickly to schedule our first session. I am committed to making therapy affordable. Through Path, I am in-network for most commercial insurances, so you're only responsible for your co-pay!

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS Hi, I am Marissa Robinson! Therapy at Be You is humanistic & collaborative. This practice celebrates individuality. Our approach to therapy is humanistic, interpersonal, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, with an emphasis on the importance of a safe and open therapeutic relationship. We specialize with working with young adults who are going through life/ career transitions, relationship stress, anxiety, sexuality/ intimacy issues, self-esteem issues, depression, as well as wellness & self-care. We support our clients in identifying and attaining their full potential. In our work, we help my clients identify the issue, process what is going on, build on resources to slow down their mind & body, and transform relationships and routines to improve your daily life and how you feel within it. We aim for you to leave sessions feeling empowered, connected, and confident.
I a relationally oriented gestalt therapist. People work best with me who are looking for an empathic, non-confrontational yet direct psychotherapist who will interact with them. I work best with intelligent and creative individuals. I offer online sessions. Most of my practice is online. Please check for in-person availability.
I am a private practice therapist who works with adults of all ages, with particular experience supporting LGBTQIA+ clients and those who have experienced trauma. I believe that symptoms—whether anxiety, depression, or something harder to name—often have roots in our histories and relationships. In our work together, we’ll slow down and get curious about the patterns, feelings, and ways you’ve learned to cope that may no longer be serving you. Many of the students I work with are navigating academic pressure, identity questions, relationship stress, or major life transitions while trying to keep up with the demands of school and daily life. My hope is to offer a warm, attuned space where greater self-understanding can lead to real and lasting change.

We believe you are powerful—that you can change your circumstances and experience. You know complicated problems don’t have simple solutions. We work closely with you, trying to understand what it’s like to be you, so your life can be more like you want it to be. We are open and non-judgmental. We work psychodynamically. We listen well, and bring a curiosity to your experience that can help you perceive choices and options you didn’t know were possible.
Everyday someone struggles with the idea of whether therapy is the right choice for them. Many people attempt to “push through”, ignore or avoid dealing with issues that may be reoccurring in their life. For some it’s about not wanting to share personal information with a stranger. Other times it’s about fear of trying something new. For many it’s about believing that they can resolve issues without support from others. Some may feel that seeking therapy is a sign of weakness. Oddly enough it takes strength and self awareness to recognize when support may be helpful. The goal of the clinician is always to provide support in a nonjudgmental, non threatening environment. If you’re reading this you have taken the first step toward change. Today is a Perfect Day to start on a journey toward a better you.
I have experience working with students experiencing burnout, imposter syndrome, and overwhelm in their academic, professional, and personal lives. I enjoy working with students who are self aware and may be intellectualizing their emotions and experiences. Anyone looking to take their healing a step further and deeper into their physical body rather than just the cognitive work is someone I’d be excited to connect with.
If you have been through traumatic experiences, you may be among the many who continue to carry deep pain. Perhaps you find that you are struggling to live the life you seek or feel like something is missing. The good news is that therapy can help! As a veteran, I have been on my own healing journey. And as a therapist, I have worked with people who have experienced many forms of trauma, including work at a clinic dedicated to serving 9/11 First Responders. Through your courage and commitment plus my warmth and expertise, we can collaborate to help you feel a greater sense of peace in yourself and confidence as you navigate the world. Addressing trauma is my overarching area of emphasis. I am also passionate about working with people with relationship struggles, challenges related to religion or spirituality, and those wanting to explore the meanings of past psychedelic experiences. I offer individual psychotherapy and, under certain conditions, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. If you are ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out to schedule a complimentary phone consultation.
I am a compassionate, thoughtful, experienced psychologist, and I am very interested in getting to know you and your struggles. I work with individuals and couples, from late adolescence to older adulthood. My work is collaborative and starts by creating a non-judgmental space in which you can feel comfortable sharing your symptoms and exploring your past, present and future. We will work together to help you understand and negotiate the external and internal obstacles preventing you from achieving greater contentment in your life. I use evidence-based approaches, such as CBT, DBT, and ACT, to help clients reduce anxiety and depression, better cope with stress, and improve their self-esteem and relationships. I also utilize attachment and psychodynamic theories to help clients construct a meaningful narrative of their history, help identify harmful patterns in thinking, behavior and relationships, and help clients liberate from them. I specialize in both short-term and long-term psychotherapy aimed at increasing self-awareness and identifying patterns that contribute to mood symptoms and difficulties at work or in relationships. I look forward to speaking with you about the challenges you are currently facing so that we can establish a plan to help you overcome them and lead a more satisfying and fulfilling life. I look forward to learning about you and partnering with you through psychotherapy to help you reduce stress and find greater satisfaction with your life.
I believe that we all possess the power to make lasting changes in our lives. We just need the right support. I take a holistic attitude to understanding the challenges my clients face, including paying attention to the importance of culture and environment. I believe that change occurs when we acknowledge intersectionality, the complexity of identity, and the important roles that social systems like family, religion, culture, class, gender, and race play in people’s lives, not when we ignore the broader picture and focus only on the individual. My goal is to walk with you on your journey and provide compassionate and collaborative guidance that fits exactly who you are while helping you move towards how you want to be in the world. I work with people dealing with a whole variety of mental health and mental wellness concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, spirituality, career and personal development, grief and loss, and life transitions. I have a special love for providing counseling to international students, immigrants, and refugees. Want to get started? Email me.

Clients who come to me have expressed feeling a change in their mood, such as feeling more irritable, more anxious than usual or that they just don't feel like themselves and aren't enjoying things that they once used to. I will provide you with a non-judgmental and accepting environment where you can feel comfortable talking openly about difficult emotions and topics. Since each person is a unique individual with his or her own experiences, I use a holistic approach to therapy that’s unique to who you are and what you will need to support your well-being. In therapy we will explore connections between your past and present experiences so you can gain a deeper sense of awareness about yourself, identify problems so you can get to the bottom of why you are feeling the way you area and learn coping skills so you can better manage symptoms and find relief in challenging moments. Mental health concerns that I specialize in but are not limited to include: anxiety, depression and trauma, as well as family dynamics, life transitions, career-related stress and self-esteem. We’re told all sorts of misinformed messages that downplay the importance of mental health, so it’s no surprise if you are hesitant or nervous about the idea of therapy but remember that you are entitled to get help, no matter what you are going through.
