I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering teletherapy in New York and Connecticut.

I specialize in working with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, sports performance-related stress, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults of all ages and many perspectives. I have extensive experience providing therapy and I am passionate about helping those with complicated trauma heal and create the lives they deserve.

I primarily work with individuals navigating the perinatal period. This includes people who are just starting to think about pregnancy, those currently expecting or navigating infertility and loss, and parents. I specialize in helping those who might be struggling with their mental health or are worried about how their own experiences will shape their relationship with their children.

Hi, I'm Kristina. I work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, and the weight that builds up when life gets genuinely hard. That includes LGBTQ+ youth and adults, adolescents with disabilities, couples, people of color, and clients who have felt like the system was not

built with them in mind. My approach is integrative and strengths-based, with CBT and trauma-informed care at the core, and I show up with genuine empathy and honest

directness. I have received training in exposure and response prevention, psychoeducational testing, and family and forensic psychology, and I have worked with couples, court-mandated individuals, and clients who struggle financially. Reach out when you are ready. (Psy.D.,

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and mutual respect. I offer therapy in both English and Spanish. I work with clients across the lifespan and have experience supporting people navigating obsessive and personality disorders, interpersonal relationships, self-care, socialization, and other challenges that can leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself. As a New York State–licensed mental health counselor, I bring an integrative perspective to therapy and strive to understand each client as a whole person rather than simply focusing on a diagnosis or presenting concern. I also have a background in music, which continues to be an important part of my life and informs my belief in finding balance, meaning, and your own unique rhythm.

I am Shari Weiss, PsyD, a licensed clinical psychologist with a decade of experience providing evidence based care. My approach is warm, empathic, and collaborative. I work with individuals and families across the lifespan who are struggling with anxiety, mood, or life transitions and are ready to better understand themselves and feel more in control of their lives.

My approach blends psychodynamic therapy — exploring how our past shapes who we are — with cognitive behavioral techniques that help you shift patterns and take back control of your thoughts and choices. I meet clients where they are, offering a space of respect, understanding, and real conversation.

If you’re ready to start doing the work — to heal, to grow, and to reclaim your power — I’d be honored to walk beside you.

I believe in continuing the pursuit of normalizing mental health treatment. It can be challenging going through the process of accepting and creating the momentum to take those steps, but it is a testament to your personal strength. I have been providing therapy services since 2021 as a Licensed Master Social Worker, and have been providing services as a fully licensed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2025. I work with clients between the ages of 18-75 who experience a range of mental health conditions and needs.

No single approach fits all clients; I tailor my approach to each client, making it relevant to the specific problem they are facing. The best way to understand your current issues is to examine how your past influences who you are today. I also emphasize understanding your emotions and past patterns to ensure a better understanding of yourself. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring you are comfortable within the therapy setting and process these hard feelings through a genuine relationship. I also ensure that you understand the process of our work together so you can feel informed and empowered.
