Hello, my name is Lindsay, and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I practice a person-centered approach to therapy, where the therapeutic relationship is collaborative, and together, we work to create the best treatment plan for you.
I specialize in helping individuals who are struggling with traumatic experiences, anxiety, panic, depression, low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal ideation, and other challenging mental health concerns.
Do you find yourself feeling anxious or overwhelmed with daily stress ? Does thinking of the past consume you and even steal your current happiness? Do you struggle with being alone or find yourself with limited support? There is hope for a future filled with peace, happiness and meaning. Your challenges don't define you. Let's work together to gain a better understanding of your experiences. I'm here to support you. You can achieve personal growth, self worth, emotional improvement and healing.
I know starting with a new therapist can feel hard, and
building trust takes time. I’m patient, warm, and intentional
about creating a comfortable space where you can feel
supported as you grow and build resilience. I work with children, teens, and adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQIA+ and transgender-related concerns, grief, relationship challenges, and life adjustments. Some people come to me in the middle of a crisis. Others come because something has felt off for a long time and they’re finally ready to look at it. Both are good reasons to start.
I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work from New York University's Silver School of Social work. Prior to earning my master's degree, I studied Music Therapy and Psychology at Berklee College of Music. After finishing my undergraduate Degree at Berklee I worked as a Music Therapist at Children's Hospital Los Angeles and then worked for two years at an inpatient Psychiatric Hospital in LA. Working as a Music Therapist was fulfilling but left me feeling like I wanted to help get at the root of my client's trauma and have a deeper impact on their lives. After finishing my Master's I worked as a family therapist for a preventative program funded by Child Protective Services, I then transitioned to a group practice based in Brooklyn serving a diverse client caseload. I have now been working in private practice for over four years working primarily with women with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, perfectionism and body-image related issues.
If this is your first time seeking therapy, or if you have been in therapy before you are welcome here.
I have years of clinical experience specializing in Trauma, Relationship Issues, as well as individuals with ADD/ADHD and individuals with Asperger's Syndrome. In addition to having a master's degree in Art Therapy from Pratt Institute, I have postgraduate training in Psychodynamic-Psychoanalytical Therapy, working with children and teens. Dance/Movement Therapy, and Drs. John and Julie Gottman Method. I have years of experience utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Hi, I’m Victoria Nielsen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. Whether you’re coming to therapy for the first time, returning after time away, or simply looking for support as you navigate the day-to-day challenges of life, I want you to feel comfortable bringing your whole self into the room.
I work with young adults and adults experiencing anxiety, big or overwhelming emotions, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, life transitions, or feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. I also enjoy working with individuals who consider themselves highly sensitive or who experience emotions and the world around them deeply. Sometimes there’s a specific concern bringing you to therapy, and other times you may simply feel that something isn’t quite right or that you want to better understand yourself.
Clients have described me as warm, non-judgemental, and easy to talk to. I also believe there is room for humor and moments of lightness in therapy, even when we’re working through difficult things. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can be yourself, feel comfortable being honest, and know that you’ll be met without judgment.
Welcome! If you’re here, you’ve already taken an important step toward understanding yourself and creating meaningful change. With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I’ve worked with diverse individuals navigating complex personal and relational challenges.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, high-functioning individuals who may appear to have everything together externally, yet internally feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or weighed down by anxiety, life transitions, trauma, chronic illness, or loss. I aim to create a space where you can show up as your full, authentic self without judgment.
Are you living the life you want? Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, or depressed? This is the first step in the right direction towards positive change. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Doctor of Social Work (DSW) who is dedicated to supporting others who are challenged with life stressors, life transitions, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and relational concerns.
I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of clients through their struggles and transitions. I work with my clients to explore which therapeutic approach works best and provide them with different treatment strategies and skills to deal with their challenges. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient and correctional settings and have experience with depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, psychosis, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder, Schizoaffective disorders and personality disorders. I particularly enjoy working with clients who experience anxiety, panic and OCD for which I utilize CBT via Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), Exposure Hierarchy and mindfulness. All of my experiences have made me an empathetic and nonjudgemental mental health provider who realizes the importance or providing mental health treatment.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The ideal client is open, courageous, and dedicated to their personal growth. They engage in therapy with honesty, ready to explore and understand their inner world. Embracing change with a patience and self-compassion, they can recognize that healing is a journey. Life is too precious to spend in bad relationships, holding grudges, letting trauma control us, or feeling anxious and angry. Together, we can create a supportive and safe space to work towards a healthier, happier self.
My name is Mia Hollenbach and I received my Master's Degree from Columbia University. I am clinically licensed in both New York and New Jersey and have 8 years of professional experience. I would describe my therapeutic style as warm, affirming, non-judgmental & rooted in compassion.
I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment.
You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning! Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I'm here with you every step of the way.
