    Fresh Path NY Mental Health Counseling PLLC is a group private practice dedicated to providing telehealth therapy and coaching services to individuals, partners and families.  Our team is dedicated and specialized in issues affecting LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and Open & Poly communities.

    Our practice is:

    Trauma-informed – we recognize the impact that trauma has on the body and mind and work with clients using body-based/somatic, cognitive, and neuro-experiential approaches.

    Anti-oppressive & Intersectional – we recognize intersecting visible and invisible identities and the harmful cumulative impact of systemic oppression, -phobias, and -isms in our lives.

    Eclectic – we believe in a relational and client-empowered therapeutic relationship and we use various modalities to personalize and maintain a client-centered process.

    Holistic – we believe in the wholeness of being and embrace an integrated approach to our therapeutic and coaching practices.

    Accessible – our telehealth services and range of rates seeks to support clients regardless of location with New York State and across varying financial circumstances.

    Change is possible. Healing is possible.  Achieving your goals is possible. We are excited to work with you on your journey.

    Let's work together on your journey
