I have been a psychologist for 17+ years in the public and private sectors. During this time, I have developed the skills to work with patients who are suffering from trauma related symptoms and grief. For the past decade, I have also regularly helped patients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.

Welcome- I'm a culturally informed and trauma oriented counselor dedicated to help individual to heal, grow, and reconnect with their authentic selves.
My journey into mental health work began during my years as a Child Protective Specialist in NYC, where I worked closely with children and adults navigating some of life's most painful and complex circumstances.
After receiving my graduate degree, I worked with non-profit organization supporting children and survivors of domestic violence. Today, I serve as a full time outpatient mental health therapist working with clients from diverse background who are seeking healing, clarity, and empowerment.
Each step of my career has been guiding me by a simple truth: that healing is possible when people feel truly seen, heard, understood, supported. My new chapter with Headway marks an exciting step forward- expanding my practice to offer compassionate, evidence-based therapy for those ready to begin or continue their healing journey.

A big reason why I became a therapist is reflected in the quote: "Your vocation is where your deep gladness meets the world's deep need" (Frederick Buechner). I find tremendous joy in helping clients move toward healthier and more meaningful lives.

I’m Dylan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York and New Jersey. I support adults who grew up in difficult family systems and are realizing past experiences/patterns are still showing up in their relationships today. Most of my clients are in their 20's and 30's and have experienced trauma, anxiety, and challenging family and relationship dynamics. They sometimes feel overwhelmed by the idea of starting therapy, when their plates are already full with day-to-day life. I help them start their therapeutic process in a way that feels welcoming and approachable. I have experience working with diverse client populations and the LGBTQIA+ community. I strive to foster an environment in sessions where clients feel comfortable showing up as their most authentic selves.

I am a member of a prestigious group of therapists at NY Mental Health Center. We understand that it takes courage to speak with a therapist, but the potential rewards outweigh the risks of opening up. I have experience helping clients with anxiety, mood disorders, relationship problems, addictions, trauma, and coping with disease, among other concerns. I work with each patient to create a strong relationship and I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for open communication.

Hi, I’m Nikki — owner of Dragonfly Haven Wellness LCSW PLLC. I’m looking forward to starting our work together.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, earned in 2003. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges in both outpatient and school-based mental health settings.
I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach is warm and collaborative, while also helping to point out connections to support your growth. I draw from a blend of psychodynamic therapy, relational approaches, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and Encompass co-occurring treatment to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.
I’ve recently completed a certified integrative mental health provider course and somatic technique training to focus more on body-based approaches alongside traditional talk therapy to support healing as a whole-person process.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are and knowing that I am here to work alongside you as you move towards change.

I earned my MSW from Rutgers University after changing from Engineering to Psychology during my undergraduate years. I primarily focus on trauma work but have a wide-ranging skillset and have worked with chronic pain, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, identity issues, relationship and communication issues, and more. I have worked with a variable population, of multiple genders, sexual orientations, races, and cultures; I am also LGBTQIA+, ENM, and kink affirming/supportive.
