I'm Joe. I'm a kind, compassionate therapist who works well with folks who are curious about who they are and what kind of life they want to build. With this spirit of curiosity we can explore what has gotten in your way and where you want to go: how your past coping methods served you then, but not now; how we can improve your ability to communicate with yourself and others; how to feel more centered and clear on your desires and goals. I have special experience and ability to support folks in the queer, trans and broader LGBTQ+ communities. I also support relationship systems (including both monogamous couples and open/poly systems) with navigating their challenges in work, love, and play. Throughout all my work, I practice from an anti-oppression and anti-racism mindset. If anything above sparked your interest, and you think I might be able to help, let's find a time to connect.

As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) specializing in person-centered therapy, I work with adults (18+) and adolescents who are ready to do meaningful work, wherever they are in their journey. I take a radically empathetic approach to help you navigate anxiety, depression, self-worth challenges, relationship difficulties (both platonic and romantic), and the weight of oppressive systems that can make life feel harder than it should. Whether you're brand new to therapy or well into the process, I'm here to walk alongside you, meeting you exactly where you are and helping you move toward where you want to be. I believe deeply in your capacity to grow, and am passionate about helping you build the skills and self-awareness that allow you to live more authentically. My approach is nonjudgmental, relational, and insight-oriented, creating a space that feels both calm and energizing, where real exploration can happen. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and psychodynamic approaches, I help you develop the tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. Because no two people are alike, I tailor my style to fit your unique needs, background, and lived experience. What works for you will always guide how we work together. My path to this work is a personal one. My own experiences with anxiety, and the process of seeking and receiving help, gave me a firsthand understanding of how transformative the right therapeutic relationship can be. That experience opened my eyes to the profound value of feeling truly seen and supported when navigating life's hardest moments. Outside of the therapy room, you'll find me lost in a good book, out on my bike, or making time for the people I love. These moments of connection and curiosity keep me grounded, and remind me why balance and joy matter so much in a well-lived life.

Based on my experience, the students I work most effectively with often face similar challenges, especially as they adapt to college life and cope with stress or feeling overwhelmed. These individuals tend to find value in receiving support and guidance while adjusting to the demands of their new academic and social surroundings. I've found that my approach works best for those who are looking for practical ways to manage stress, improve time management, and build resilience in both academic and personal aspects of their lives. Through establishing a supportive and understanding therapeutic connection as well as medication management, my goal is to empower students to tackle their college journey with confidence and strength.

You deserve a compassionate and grounded partner in your healing journey. As a mental health counselor for children, adolescents, young adults, and couples, I specialize in helping patients navigate relationship patterns, attachment dynamics, self-esteem development, identity exploration, interpersonal dynamics, anxiety and depression, disordered eating, and life transitions. If you’re ready to work toward greater self-understanding and emotional resilience, please reach out today. I look forward to supporting you as you develop greater confidence, self-acceptance, and a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. I take a holistic, collaborative, and individualized approach to care to help you build insight, emotional awareness, and growth for meaningful, lasting change. We achieve this together in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment tailored to your unique personality, presenting problems, and needs. Your customized treatment plan may include psychodynamic and person-centered therapies, integrated with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and relational therapy to guide you in reaching your goals. My passion for therapy grew from wanting to be a safe space for people going through difficult periods and feeling like they have no one they can talk to. As someone who lacked this outlet as a teenager, I understood the value of providing unconditional, compassionate care. In my practice now, I remain committed to bringing a humanizing perspective to the therapeutic relationship, grounded in the belief that we all share similar emotions and life experiences, in order to ensure patients feel seen, understood, and supported in every session. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active through sports like soccer, tennis, wake surfing, skiing (downhill and cross-country), running marathons, yoga, and other workouts; as well as by hiking, taking long walks, and being near the beach or mountains. I also enjoy reading self-help books, watching psychological thrillers and rom-coms, listening to music, cooking healthy meals, and spending meaningful time with friends — staying present and unplugged from phones whenever possible.

I have many years experience helping people with their emotional problems. I work with individuals of all ages from adolescence to old age. My approach is listening-focused. No two persons who have come to see me have had the same issues and struggles to contend with. So what is needed is close, attentive listening so I can know how you can most benefit from my help. Many patients prefer to focus on the here and now problems they feel most immediately. But others want to explore their root causes in earlier relations and problems. I try to tailor my practice to work at either or both these levels of intensity.

Welcome! I'm Madeleine Conner, a Licensed Master of Social Work (LMSW) with five years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through personal challenges, including life transitions, anxiety, attachment issues, mood disturbances, trauma, and stress. Three of those years have been dedicated specifically to delivering trauma-informed therapy services to early childhood populations. Emotional regulation and psychodynamic therapy are at the center of my work, and I use these approaches to help patients of all ages explore how their experiences shape their emotions, thoughts, and relationships. My commitment is to extend the best care, support, and counseling to each person I have the privilege of working with. Compassion and collaboration are the foundation of everything I do in the therapy room. I tailor my approach to your unique needs, goals, and experiences, because no two people, and no two paths, are the same. Working together, you can expect a space that is customized to your objectives and rooted in genuine human connection. I believe a strong collaborative relationship is key to promoting meaningful growth, and I draw on person-centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), among other evidence-based approaches, to help you develop insight and gain practical tools for navigating life's challenges. From an early age, I had an innate ability to hold space for others. I was often the person friends could turn to with the parts of themselves they didn't feel safe sharing elsewhere. Those moments let me witness firsthand the power of empathy and support, and they planted the seed for the work I do today. That lifelong desire to help others feel understood, accepted, and supported led me to earn a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Spanish from Amherst College, and then a Master of Social Work from New York University. Each step deepened my understanding of what it means to truly show up for another person, and that understanding is what I bring into every session with you. When I'm not working, you'll find me painting, crocheting, singing, doing yoga, or spending time with my dog, Hank. I also just learned how to play Mah Jongg!

I specialize in supporting adults navigating OCD, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, psychotic disorders, and bipolar disorder. My focus is on understanding the whole person—your experiences, strengths, and challenges—rather than just symptoms. I believe that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process, and I adapt my style based on what resonates best with you, whether that means a more structured approach or a more exploratory, insight-oriented conversation. My goal is to empower you with tools and understanding you can carry beyond our sessions. Supporting patients in developing coping skills, accessing resources, and maintaining hope during difficult times inspires me. I am deeply committed to reducing stigma and ensuring that mental healthcare is accessible, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. Outside of work, I like to engage in activities that help me feel relaxed and present. Sometimes that means going for a walk outdoors to clear my mind. Other times, I might read a good book, listen to music, or spend time with friends and family.

With more than four years of experience in private practice and state-contracted non-profit settings, I provide individual therapy to adults and adolescents, both in person and virtually. Having navigated my own personal and parenting challenges, I bring humility and authenticity to this work, and I see struggle as space for growth, learning, and discovery. My clinical approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and family systems therapy, which I use to support parents with skill development and behavior management, strengthen emotional regulation and connection, and help you build sustainable systems of support. Creativity and self-expression are also powerful tools I draw on for connection and healing. My work is deeply rooted in family systems and multidisciplinary collaboration, as I value working within the context of your family and broader support networks, because meaningful progress happens when care is coordinated and holistic. Persistence, clear communication, patience, and problem-solving skills guide that work, helping families break generational patterns and create individualized action plans. Across both private practice and state-contracted non-profit settings, in person and virtual, the purpose behind my work has remained the same: offering you thoughtful, individualized support through collaborative, patient-centered care. I'm a mother of two and a beginner gym enthusiast, who loves plants, nature, and the arts.

You may be dealing with a major life transition, struggling with expectations at school or work, feeling disconnected from yourself, or finding that anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing is getting in the way of the life and relationships you want. You may also be working to better understand your identity, communicate your needs, set boundaries, or manage difficult emotions. That's where I can help. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) specializing in anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions, working with adolescents, young adults, and adults who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next as they navigate life's challenges in pursuit of greater confidence, connection, and well-being. My goal is to provide a supportive, LGBTQ+-affirming space where you can slow down and develop tools to move forward. I believe in the dignity, worth, and inherent strengths of every person. That meaningful change happens through trust, collaboration, and connection, so I strive to be a supportive partner who respects your autonomy and meets you where you are. In our work together, I hope to help you better understand yourself, build confidence in your own voice, and feel empowered to advocate for your needs. I value the opportunity to witness patients grow, heal, and recognize their own capacity for change, and I would be honored to walk alongside you in that process. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and that you are the expert on your own life. That belief shapes an approach that is curious and compassionate, with space for us to explore your experiences, patterns, and goals together. Because I value self-determination, therapy is shaped around what feels most meaningful and helpful to you, which means creating a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected. I also recognize that taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, and believe simply showing up is meaningful. From there, my role is to guide you as you navigate challenges, and work toward the changes you want to make. In doing so, you'll find a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where you can show up as you are. I draw from integrated, evidence-based practices adapted to your unique needs, goals, and lived experiences, while valuing open conversation and curiosity, following your lead, and making space for whatever feels most important to you. Therapy doesn't have to feel overly formal, and I bring my authentic self, and even a little humor into our work together when it feels appropriate. Wherever you are in your journey, I'll help you find an approach that feels helpful and genuine. My path to becoming a therapist began with a love of learning about human development and a desire to support others. I initially planned to become a teacher, gaining experience working in special education and supporting individuals on the autism spectrum. Those experiences sparked a deeper interest in understanding the many factors that shape a person's well-being, not just what happens within us, but also our relationships, environments, communities, and access to support. This ultimately led me to social work, where I found a field that allowed me to look at the whole person. I bring that perspective, along with curiosity and genuine compassion, into each session, because I believe everyone deserves to feel understood, supported, and empowered in their own journey. I enjoy creative hobbies like scrapbooking and crafting, listening to music, and reading. Exploring New York City is another favorite, whether I'm finding new cafés, traveling, or taking walks in the park. I am happiest spending time with friends, enjoying a sweet treat, watching a good movie or show, or relaxing at home with my cat.

As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with more than 16 years of healthcare experience, my practice is rooted in patient-centered, holistic, trauma-informed care for people at every stage of life. Whether you're navigating stress, anxiety, or mood disorders; facing a major life transition; working through grief or trauma; or exploring questions of identity and relationships, including within the LGBTQ+ community, you'll find a space here that is welcoming, stigma free, and free of judgment. Building genuine rapport is at the heart of everything I do. When you walk through the door, my hope is that you feel safe enough to share your story. Consider me a true collaborator in your care. Together, we'll work toward self-discovery and the kind of mental health that feels meaningful to you. No two people are alike, which is why my approach is individualized, collaborative, and holistic. Showing up for you exactly where you are, without preconceptions or pressure, is something I hold as a core commitment. Partnering with you to define your goals and build a path toward them is what I find most fulfilling about this work. In our sessions, you can expect a warm, calm, and nonjudgmental environment where your comfort comes first. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside humanistic and integrative methods, I bring together techniques from multiple approaches to create a personalized treatment plan that fits your unique personality and needs. The result is care that feels less like a formula and more like a conversation. Long before I became a psychiatric nurse practitioner, people in my life would come to me when they needed someone to listen. Friends, family members, and loved ones often said that talking with me helped them through difficult moments. That feedback stayed with me and quietly shaped the direction my career would take. As my healthcare career evolved, so did my appreciation for the depth of emotional support that patients need alongside medical care. Walking alongside people through medical crises, serious illness, and grief deepened my commitment to empathetic, whole-person care and led me to the work I do today. Warmth and a nurturing presence are things I bring to every appointment. When I'm not in the office, you'll often find me outside, walking through nature or settling into a meditation or yoga practice. Creativity is a big part of how I recharge too. Drawing, painting, writing poetry, and music all play a role in my life outside of work. As an amateur musician, I enjoy singing, learning keyboard, and playing flute, less for performance and more for the joy and relaxation it brings.
