Psychologist, Psy. D.
Therapy is a challenging experience. Having thirty + years of experience as a licensed psychologist working with adults and adolescents, I know that finding a "good fit" can be difficult, yet is critical to the therapeutic process. Ultimately the best results are achieved when the therapeutic relationship is one of trust and comfort.
Psychologist, PsyD
My name is Dr. Laura Berssenbrugge, a licensed clinical psychologist and registered yoga teacher. I help my clients create meaningful, sustainable change through a warm, evidence-based approach that builds on their strengths.
Whether you’re considering therapy for the first time or looking for a new therapist, you've already taken a step toward creating positive change. I provide an inviting, safe space for you to discuss your family, relationship, or personal concerns. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), you will learn skills that create lasting change to manage life’s stressors more effectively.
I work with individuals across the lifespan, specializing in anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, OCD, autism spectrum disorder, PTSD, and stress-related conditions, as well as dating and relationship challenges. I provide in-person and teletherapy to clients in New York and Hawaii, and teletherapy to clients in New Jersey and PSYPACT states (AL, AZ, AR, CO, CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MI, MN, MS, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI, WY, MP).

I am a therapist licensed in NY & NJ in private practice seeing clients virtually.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CST
My goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment for folks to explore their gender and sexuality. Perhaps you identify as queer, bi, lesbian, gay, pan, ace, trans, nonbinary, agender, poly, kinky, something else, all of the above, or nothing at all. You deserve to have a space where you can learn more about the different parts of yourself without judgment or pressure. As a queer person who has sought out therapy myself, I know how challenging it can be to find an affirming therapist. Even if your identity isn’t central to your therapy goals, I will always aim to honor and validate every part of your identity in our work.
