I will create a space where you can be your genuine self while feeling unjudged. Maybe you are unsure what your genuine self is, if so then our space can be the perfect start to discovering it. I know that being vulnerable can be difficult however through therapy, you do not need to face it alone. While beginning this journey of understanding I will guide you in the exploration of yourself as well as help you find acceptance and compassion.

Selene Altamirano-Farrell

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I’m a licensed therapist (LCSW, PMH-C) who helps adults move through trauma, anxiety, OCD, and the messy parts of life, including pregnancy and parenthood. If you’re stuck in your head, hard on yourself, caught in old patterns, or just tired of white-knuckling it, you’re in the right place.

I believe therapy works best when you can show up exactly as you are. It doesn’t have to feel formal or overly clinical. I bring warmth, honesty, and humor into my work, grounded in the belief that people are not broken—they’re doing the best they can with the experiences they’ve had.

Paul Hendley

Therapist

Virtual • New York, NY


I began practicing as a mental health counselor in 2013 and have worked with adults, adolescents, families and couples struggling with disorders ranging from depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, to borderline personality disorder. My practice is informed by Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — both evidence-based interventions that help clients make positive changes in behaviors and build coping skills and strategies to live more fully. I help clients build their own strengths to make change possible. I received my MA in Counseling in 2012 from Maryville University in St. Louis and am licensed in both New York State and Missouri. Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a public relations and marketing executive and business consultant. I hold a Masters degree in German and speak German fluently.
