Live better, work better, and feel better.

Therapy for anxious, burnt out New Yorkers

female therapist New York State

Hi, I'm Paige.

If you're up late at night dwelling in the past or worrying about the future, I get it.

I’ve spent over a decade providing therapy to overwhelmed New Yorkers suffering from anxiety, relationship struggles, confusion around sexual identity, and burnout.

And it has been a true honor to witness people transform their lives by untangling the worries swirling in their minds and finding a healthier, more grounded perspective of themselves.

I love what I do. I love getting to know my clients. And I love cheering you on as you create the life you’ve always been meant to live.

and feel like you belong.

Untangle the 3am spiral of what-ifs
and finally get some real rest.

Not just venting — we’ll build insight and practical tools so you start feeling different between sessions, not just during them.

First time trying therapy?

Imagine your worries as a tangled ball of yarn.

As an avid knitter and a huge fan of therapeutic metaphors, this is the best way I can describe what therapy is like: over time, more and more yarn accumulates, until you’re trapped by a mass of worry, indecision, and fear. Untangling it seems impossible because you don’t know where to begin.

What would it feel like to have someone carefully help you sort out those worries so you’re no longer confined by them? You can finally breathe.

Together, we’ll untangle those thoughts and roll them into neat balls of yarn. They may still exist — but they’ll be manageable. And with practice, you might even create something beautiful out of them.

Questions people ask

I’m an out-of-network provider. I can provide superbills for potential reimbursement through your insurance — many clients get a significant portion back. We can talk through this on our consult call.

All sessions are virtual, which means you can work with me from anywhere in New York State — your couch, your office, wherever you have privacy.

Therapy requires me to be licensed in your state, but coaching — a forward-focused, non-clinical way of working together — may be an option. Reach out and we’ll find what fits.

It depends on your goals. Some people come for a season, others stay for deeper work. We’ll check in regularly so therapy always feels purposeful.
