Roberta Gelfand

My communication style

Clients can expect me to be warm, direct, curious, and engaged. I listen closely, offer honest feedback, and help you connect the dots without judgment. I won’t just nod quietly for 50 minutes, because you deserve support that feels useful and real.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I’m fascinated by how people adapt, survive, and grow. I’m especially passionate about helping clients understand the patterns that once protected them but now keep them stuck. This work keeps me committed to honest, compassionate change.

My goals for you

We’ll set goals together based on what matters most to you. Goals may include reducing anxiety, improving relationships, managing ADHD, healing from trauma, or building self-trust. As therapy unfolds, we’ll adjust the plan so it stays meaningful and realistic.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance to understand what brings you to therapy, what has or hasn’t helped before, and what you want to be different. You don’t need to have it all figured out. We’ll move at a steady pace and begin building a plan together.
