Our Approach
East River Counseling offers a collaborative, evidence-based therapy experience grounded in clinical expertise and guided by true care. Our seasoned clinicians with advanced training create a space for real conversations. Whether you're navigating life challenges or managing a more specialized diagnosis, we help, guide, and challenge you to build insight and reconnect with your strengths—at your pace, in your voice.
We believe that therapy should be accessible and affordable to all who need it. We are committed to stay in network with most major insurances and continuously working on expanding into more insurance networks, because we believe you shouldn’t be budgeting for quality mental health care.
