Therapy for Your Personal Journey 

Mindful Approaches for Modern Challenges 

Adulthood – with all its responsibilities, transitions, and challenges – can often lead to anxiety, fear, or a need for control. Whether you’re facing career challenges, relationship struggles, parenting anxieties, or all the above, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. If you find yourself at a crossroads or time of extreme stress, remember that seeking help is a sign of strength.  

At Hudson Valley Mental Health Counseling, our therapeutic methods are grounded in mindfulness and acceptance. By integrating these approaches with gold standard behavioral treatments, such as ERP and other exposure-based therapies, we help adults navigate life’s challenges with increased understanding and confidence.

How We Can Help

Our Virtual & In-Person Adult Counseling Services

Whether your goals are to combat fear and anxiety, grow in mindfulness, or rediscover hope and purpose in life, your situation requires a tailored approach. Our individual therapy sessions, provided both virtually and in-person, are designed to address specific concerns, promoting acceptance, healing, and self-discovery.

OCD Management

Our therapists employ evidence-based strategies to help individuals recognize, confront, and manage obsessive-compulsive tendencies. By understanding the root of these compulsions, we empower clients to regain control over their lives.

Anxiety & Stress Relief

Anxiety and stress can be all-consuming. We provide tailored strategies to help individuals identify triggers, develop coping mechanisms, and build resilience against life’s inevitable pressures.

Mindfulness & Acceptance 

Grounded in present-moment awareness, our mindfulness and acceptance practices guide individuals to embrace their feelings and thoughts. This acceptance fosters a more compassionate self-view, improving emotional well-being.

Depression Counseling

Life’s lows shouldn’t be faced alone. Our therapeutic techniques help individuals to navigate the depths of depression, working to rediscover joy, motivation, and purpose.

BFRBs Management

From hair-pulling to skin-picking, body-focused repetitive behaviors can be disruptive. We offer specialized approaches to understand these behaviors and develop strategies to manage and reduce their impact.

Behavioral Approaches

Incorporating proven behavioral therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we support clients in modifying negative behaviors, establishing healthier habits, and fostering positive life changes.

Nourishing Connections, Building Futures

We’re on this journey with you. From overcoming personal hurdles to navigating parenting a teen or child with OCD or anxiety, let’s pave a path filled with growth, understanding, and connection together.

Core Pillars of Our Care

Helping You to Understand, Adapt,
& Thrive on Your Journey

Through our unique approach to therapy, we aim to help you feel more comfortable in the face of uncertainty, and less reactive to difficult situations or painful thoughts and feelings. As we work together to nurture your ability to slow down and make more deliberate choices, you’ll begin to feel more peaceful, open, and patient.

Personalized Therapeutic Approaches 

Our unique modular treatment approach, developed by our founder, allows for streamlined and highly personalized care. We discuss your goals, make a transparent plan, and tailor your care effectively and efficiently. 

Research-Driven Methodologies

We blend acceptance and mindfulness-based approaches with gold-standard behavioral modalities, such as exposure and response prevention for OCD and behavioral activation depression. We ensure our care is rooted in the latest research. 

Niched Mental Health Services

Our specialized approach addresses OCD, anxiety, depression, body-focused repetitive movements, perinatal mental health, and more – all while catering to individuals across various developmental stages. 

Cultural & Religious Sensitivity 

We recognize the unique needs of diverse communities, including the Orthodox Jewish community. Our approach respects and incorporates your cultural and religious values, ensuring therapy that is both effective and aligned with your beliefs.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are out-of-network providers. If you have a plan that includes coverage for out-of-network providers, we are happy to supply you with monthly invoices (superbills) that you can submit for reimbursement (typically this covers a good percentage of the fee). It’s important to understand that superbills are required by insurance companies to include a mental health diagnosis. 

Not sure if you have this benefit? Call your insurance company and ask:

  • Do I have out-of-network coverage for behavioral health?
  • What is my deductible and how much of it has been met?
  • What is the reimbursement rate for a therapy session (insurance code is 90834)?
  • Do I need preauthorization?

If you need help finding out this information, please reach out.

How long counseling sessions last is up to you. A typical session is 45 or 60 minutes once per week. There are times when it makes sense to meet for longer sessions (usually 90 minutes), or more frequent sessions (2-3x per week.)

Our treatment approach is integrated, meaning we draw from different therapeutic techniques that are tailored specifically for you. These interventions all fall under the umbrella of acceptance and mindfulness-based behavioral approaches, which means we help you embrace your thoughts and feelings without judgment while supporting you in building more flexible, workable behavior that aligns with your values. 

We also integrate exposure interventions, which involve facing your fears in a safe and supportive environment. This gradual exposure helps you break free from anxiety’s grip and build confidence in handling challenging situations.

We believe in collaboration, which means we listen to your unique experiences, respect your individuality, and truly understand your goals. Your values and aspirations guide our work together, helping us create a therapy journey that resonates with your personal needs.

Throughout the process, we provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for you to explore, learn, and grow. Our goal is to empower you to navigate life’s challenges with greater self-awareness, self-compassion, and resilience.

This is a question a lot of people have when they are considering therapy. Anxiety is a normal part of life for all of us. If you have noticed a change that you are concerned about, or if anxiety or OCD symptoms are getting in the way of thriving in school, work, or relationships, it might be time to get help from a therapist.

The first counseling session includes an assessment to help the therapist understand the concern you are bringing to therapy. This is a good time for you to discuss why you are seeking therapy at this time, and to learn more about how we approach anxiety and OCD-related problems.

We offer online video sessions for clients residing in New York or New Jersey. For those close enough to come in person, we provide in-person sessions at 10 South Broadway in Nyack NY.
