Real coping skills for the moments you feel completely overwhelmed.

Evidence-based DBT-Informed therapy for young adults, college students, and young professionals in-person in Saratoga Springs, NY, and via telehealth across all of New York and California

Hi, I'm Jennifer!  It's so nice to meet you!

Therapy Tailored for Life Transitions, Anxiety, and Burnout
Your late teens and twenties are full of major shifts—graduating college, starting a career, navigating modern dating, and figuring out who you actually are. If you are constantly dealing with racing thoughts, self-doubt, or the exhaustion of trying to keep up, you are not alone.
As an
Intensively Trained DBT Therapist specializing in young adult mental health, I help clients navigate:
Quarter-Life Crises & Life Transitions: Figuring out your next steps after graduation or adjusting to the fast pace of professional life
Anxiety & Imposter Syndrome: Quietly doubting your achievements, overthinking conversations, and fearing failure
Workplace Burnout: Setting firm boundaries, managing high-stress careers, and reclaiming your work-life balance
Relationship & Dating Anxiety: Navigating the complex world of modern dating, attachment styles, and boundary-setting with family or partners.


Individual Therapy Infused with Practical DBT Skills

Traditional therapy can sometimes feel like you’re just venting without getting real answers. If you want a space where you can talk through your week and leave with concrete tools to handle your emotions, my DBT-informed approach is designed for you. 

Because I provide DBT-informed individual therapy, we don't follow a rigid, one-size-fits-all program. Instead, I pull the most effective, evidence-based tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy—like distress tolerance and emotional regulation—and integrate them directly into our one-on-one sessions.



Why young adults prefer this flexible approach


No Mandatory Group Therapy: You get the benefits of DBT skills training completely integrated into your private individual sessions, without the requirement of joining a weekly group.
Tailored to Your Real Life: We skip the generic worksheets and apply mindfulness, boundary-setting, and communication skills directly to your current stressors, career changes, or relationship dynamics.
Active and Collaborative: Our sessions are structured to help you look forward. We look at what happened during your week, pinpoint where things felt overwhelming, and practice a specific skill to handle it differently next time.

Investing in your mental health should be seamless. My practice prioritizes a direct, personalized private-pay model, allowing us to focus entirely on your goals without insurance company restrictions.
Private Cash-Pay Rates: Clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. I provide comprehensive monthly Superbills so you can easily utilize your insurance plan’s out-of-network (OON) benefits for direct reimbursement.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in Saratoga Springs, NY and via Telehealth in New York and California

Life can feel incredibly intense, and sometimes the ways you try to cope just end up causing more stress. If you experience intense emotional highs and lows, relationship anxiety, or feel stuck in cycles of self-sabotage, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides a practical, concrete roadmap. 

As an Intensively Trained DBT therapist, I don’t just sit back and nod. We work actively together to build a personalized toolkit that helps you survive immediate crises and build a life that feels genuinely worth living. 

Through individual therapy, we focus on four core pillars tailored to young adult life:
Mindfulness: Learning how to stay grounded in the present moment instead of spiraling into future anxieties or past regrets
Distress Tolerance: Practical, actionable strategies to survive a crisis or intense emotional wave without making the situation worse
Emotion Regulation: Understanding your feelings, reducing your vulnerability to emotional triggers, and shifting your emotional baseline
Interpersonal Effectiveness: Setting firm boundaries, communicating clearly with partners or family, and navigating the social dynamics of young adulthood.
