Jen Johnston Collaborative Change Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, LMHC
We are an open and affirming group of therapy providers offering telehealth counseling sessions to clients in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York. A primary specialty of our group is working with individuals who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, either around sexual and gender identity questions directly or around other mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety, that are informed by sexual and gender identity. We work with many individuals who are gender non-conforming, transgender, or gender queer, as well as their families. We make no assumptions about your or your child's gender when you come to our practice, but rather our goal is to listen and help you navigate how best to move forward either individually or as a family. Part of our work also encompasses queer relationship counseling, as well as non-traditional relationships, such as open and polyamorous relationships.
A second speciality area of ours is offering evidenced based treatment, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, for emotion and behavior regulation. Clients come to us struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, mood swings, attention and organization difficulties, and/or self injury. We provide practical tools, skills and techniques to manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviors more effectively.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, MBA, CASAC
Online therapy can be a effective way for clients who prefer this method. Often individuals are busy with children and careers or don't want to travel to a therapist office. Chris counsels people all over New York State where online therapy works well for certain clients. For example, during Covid-19 crisis, many clients sought help where counselors were not in the office. Online therapy also works well for clients who do not drive or not near public transportation.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
You might find yourself reacting in ways you later regret, getting pulled into the same relationship dynamics, or feeling overwhelmed by emotions that seem to take over. Our sessions focus on helping you understand the functions of emotions or behavioral patterns that are hard to change, and supporting you in feeling equipped to experiment with new ways of being.
In sessions, I don’t just sit back and listen. I’m engaged, thoughtful, honest, and precise in my work - I value understanding your internal experience as accurately as possible and tailoring treatment to closely match your needs. I’ll help you slow things down, name what’s happening in real time, and connect it to larger patterns—while also building concrete skills to help you respond differently. My work is grounded in DBT and relational therapy, so we’re balancing insight with practical change.
I have particular expertise in emotion dysregulation and complex relationship patterns, including when things feel intense, confusing, or hard to control. I also work with people whose struggles are less obvious, but still leave them feeling stuck or dissatisfied. I offer telehealth sessions in California and New York.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
Even though sessions are virtual, I deeply value creating a genuine therapeutic connection and relationship with each client. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable or intimidating, and I strive to create a space that feels warm, supportive, and human from the very beginning. Building trust and helping clients feel truly seen and understood is at the core of my work. I’m proud that many of my clients choose to continue working with me long term, which I believe reflects the strength of the relationships we build together and the sense of safety and consistency they experience in therapy.

Dr. Christina Gerdes
Psychiatrist, MD
I am a Columbia University trained board-certified adult psychiatrist specializing in evidence-based psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and culturally responsive mental-health care with over 14 years of experience. I combine my medical expertise with a warm, collaborative therapeutic approach to help individuals navigate a range of life events including but not limited to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, bipolar disorder, OCD, and substance use problems. I offer medication management and/or psychotherapy, allowing patients to receive integrative care within a single treatment setting.
I am skilled in psychopharmacology and a range of psychotherapies including supportive therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. To begin treatment, we start by first completing a comprehensive evaluation to understand your concerns. Afterwards, we work together to develop a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs.
I believe healing begins when people feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to provide evidence-based, compassionate, comprehensive care that honors each person’s individual experience. I look forward to talking to you and understanding how we could work together.

Neha Chawla
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, ATR-BC, LCAT, LP, FIPA
I offer a free initial consultation for you to decide if remote therapy could work for you. I believe that it is very much possible for online sessions to be highly attuned, connected, deeply insight oriented and productive depending on the therapist's training. I invite you to try it out, at no cost to you.
I offer video/remote sessions to those working from home, within the hybrid model or for convenience to support time efficiency and productivity. Remote sessions can also support individuals who are still being protective of their health because they may be immuno-compromised, disabled, have long Covid, are suffering from other chronic/terminal illnesses or any limiting symptoms. Finally, remote sessions could also work better for individuals who may be feeling too depressed or withdrawn, those experiencing social anxiety, generalized anxiety, PTSD, ASD and find the outside world far too over-stimulating or unsafe at this time.

Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
I provide therapy for gay men and hold licenses in New Jersey, New York, and Utah. Many gay men worry that a therapist might not fully understand their experiences or that they’ll have to hide parts of themselves in session. I once shared those same concerns, and they’re what inspired me to become a therapist who offers affirming, authentic care. Together, we’ll create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can find clarity, growth, and the confidence to live more fully.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained at Columbia University, with additional certification as a sex therapist through AASECT and advanced relationship training from The Couples Institute. Over the past two decades, I’ve supported gay men in a variety of settings—including the NYC LGBT Community Center and Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC).
