Therapists for college students near New York University

My name is Samaria Gray and I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Therapist with a special focus on youth and adults. I believe that everyone deserves to be seen and heard, especially when it comes to dealing with past traumas. Some of the areas I am experienced in working with are anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, grief, domestic violence, and trauma survivors and use various evidence-based approaches to help my clients heal and move forward in life.

We are a group practice with a shared passion for women's mental health. We treat a wide variety of concerns including reproductive and perinatal concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, LGBTQ+ clients, and ADHD/neurodivergence to name a few. We offer individual, couples, and family therapy and our team has experience in numerous evidence-based treatment modalities including EMDR, ACT, EFT, CBT, ERP, & DBT.

I work with individuals, couples, and families through a primarily psychodynamic framework. Through insight-oriented work with a focus on interpersonal relationship dynamics, attachment, and family systems, it is my goal to help the people I work with uncover repressed trauma from childhood and adolescence in order to gain a more nuanced understanding about their unhealthy relationship dynamics, from past and present, in order to live healthier and more fulfilling lives. I enjoy helping my patients develop a deeper sense of self-awareness in order to understand their emotional and interpersonal struggles. There are many different approaches to therapy, and it is my belief that it is best to adapt to the needs of each person I work with. We often learn to understand ourselves, and the actions and behaviors of others, through the lens of our early life experiences. It is my goal to help you disentangle the complex webs that we all form, which may feel insurmountable to conquer alone. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic space where we will explore uncharted areas of your life to make connections between prior experiences and current emotions in order to develop insight and growth. I strive to foster a compassionate healing environment in which I will help you form inner coping resources, so you may develop healthy relationships, gain self-esteem, and find relief from emotional distress. It is my goal to tailor treatment to fit your individual needs. Some of the most rewarding aspects of my work involve being able to assess your strengths, share that information with you, and help you implement those strengths in a positive way. When you are ready to take the next step, please call or email me for a complimentary phone consultation. I look forward to meeting you soon. *I am currently seeing patients for both virtual and in-person appointments.
