Gretchen Robinson

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I grew up in a family deeply rooted in the human services field—both of my parents dedicated their careers to helping others. Their compassion and commitment had a big influence on me, and it’s what ultimately shaped my own path. Before becoming a counselor, I spent several years working in law enforcement, where I gained a deep appreciation for the resilience and complexity of people’s lives. That experience inspired me to return to school and focus on helping others in a different way.

Arelys Itwaru

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Port Jefferson Station, NY


Hi, I’m Arelys! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of nursing experience. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for people from all walks of life, across different ages, cultures, backgrounds, and circumstances. Those experiences have shaped the way I approach mental health care: with curiosity, compassion, and an understanding that there is always more to a person than what brings them into the room.

I work with adolescents, college students, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and the challenges and transitions that life can bring.

I chose to specialize in mental health because I believe meaningful care begins with truly getting to know the person in front of me. Your symptoms matter, but so do the experiences, relationships, stressors, strengths, and circumstances that shape them. I want our time together to be a space where you feel comfortable being honest, where your concerns are heard, and where you never feel like you have to fit into a one-size-fits-all approach.

My goal is to build a genuine, collaborative relationship and create a treatment plan that makes sense for you—one that supports not only symptom improvement, but your ability to feel more like yourself and move forward with confidence.

Margarita Sionova

Margarita Sionova

Therapist

Virtual • New York


You've been carrying a lot — and you've probably been doing it alone for longer than

you'd like to admit. Maybe it's anxiety that follows you into every room, grief that

never fully lifted, the exhaustion of new motherhood, or trauma that keeps finding its

way back. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to untangle it by yourself.

I'm Rita Sionova, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 19 years of experience

working with adults, adolescents, and families across New York. I specialize in

trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, maternal mental health, and the kind of life

transitions that reshape everything you thought you knew about yourself. My

background spans healthcare, legal, and educational settings — which means I

understand the full weight of the real-world pressures, not just the clinical picture.

I offer therapy in both English and Russian, and I provide culturally responsive

care for clients navigating immigrant experiences, generational patterns, and the

particular challenges that come with living between two worlds. All sessions are via

tele-health, available to clients across New York State.

276 5th Avenue, New York, NY

Hey there! I hope you will not hang out with me for a long time. I am here to evaluate your challenge and suggest a way out of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and such. Therapy must be short and effective, not a drag.

I offer:

  • Short-term holistic therapy. It means we look at your lifestyle and mainly: what you think, what you believe in, if you are physically active, if you eat junk, drink sodas and alcohol, if you watch junk, and how you dress. Your posture matter as well. All of these are pillars of your success for your mental health.

If you need diagnostic evals for your schools and work:

  • Borderline Personality Disorder evaluations
  • ADHD & Autism evaluations

If you think you are super strange and have nobody to talk to about your UFO abductions and psychic visits- you are at the right place.

I offer clinically rooted and evidence based sessions

  • Support for dissociation , UFO dreams, out-of-body experiences and all that cool staff.
  • ESA psychiatric evaluations for qualified NYC clients

I hold a degree in Advanced Clinical Practice from Columbia University School of Social Work and am a licensed psychotherapist in New York City.
