Sabrina Gonzalez, LMHC — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Sabrina!

I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and adjustment challenges. My focus is on helping you confront concerns using your own resiliency within our therapeutic alliance. Together, we'll build on your strengths while addressing what brings you to therapy.

My focus

I work with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, and depression. My aim is to help you cope with life changes, transitions, and pressures by providing useful skills and validation. Together, we'll promote a healthy and balanced outlook on life.

My approach

My approach is tailored to your needs and what you're experiencing right now. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Strengths-Based Therapy because both help with self-awareness and equip you with tools to move forward. There's no one-size-fits-all in our work together.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, welcoming, and personable. I truly value the rapport-building stage of our work together. Clients have shared that they feel heard, understood, and validated in our sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I decided to become a therapist after noticing a pattern of gravitating toward understanding human behavior and connecting with others. I enjoy learning what makes people tick and talking through their concerns. My goal is to provide a listening ear and tools to show you can go far with your inner resilience.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting by becoming familiar with your needs, building trust, and equipping you with tools to identify what matters most. I believe you are the expert in your life. By working together, we can focus on your goals and track ongoing progress.

Our first session

During our first session, you can expect open communication about your present feelings and recent significant events. We'll ask questions to learn more about each other and build connection. My aim is to set a good foundation for future sessions and briefly discuss your overall view of mental health.
