Emily Brenner
Art Therapist, LCAT, ATR-BC
Online therapy offers a flexible and accessible way to receive support from the comfort of your own space. Whether you’re at home or in a quiet, private setting, sessions are conducted securely through video, allowing you to connect without the stress of commuting or navigating a busy schedule.
Many people find that meeting from a familiar environment helps them feel more at ease and open during sessions. The therapeutic process remains just as meaningful and effective as in-person work, while offering greater convenience and consistency.
I provide virtual therapy for adults across New York State, making it easier to access support that fits into your life.

Ren Lee
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
We live within various systems and institutions that impact how we navigate our lives in relation to each other. My work is grounded in community care, growth, liberation, joy, resilience, healing, and justice. I am here to support you in exploring connections to yourself, your communities, and the world around you. My approach is rooted in liberation, relational, and psychodynamic work through an anti-oppressive lens, and includes modalities such as somatics, narrative therapy, and mindfulness. I am passionate about working with intersectional identities of race, gender, sexuality, and neurodivergence and I find it incredibly fulfilling to continuously build relationships through empathy, curiosity, and compassion.

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.

Dr. Erica Gardner-Schuster
Psychologist, PhD
My ongoing online interpersonal process psychotherapy groups offer safe, supportive spaces for adults to find more fulfilling connection in their lives. Group focuses on practicing emotional honesty, authentic relating, and processing life stressors and mental health struggles with a therapeutic community of fellow travelers. An attachment and trauma-informed group approach focuses on gaining insight into interpersonal patterns in order to transcend loneliness and overcome obstacles to emotional closeness, belonging, and love. Group members support one another in transcending loneliness and suffering to create the life they want to be living and the relationships that sustain them.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a practitioner and social worker for almost to 30 years, I provide a a warm and compassionate environment for my clients. I work with individuals, couples and families of all ages with a primarily psychodynamic approach. My practice is informed by my training as both a clinical social worker and a psychoanalyst, and I work with people's patterns, tendencies and help unlock their unconscious motivations. People often come to me for specific problems that arise in their lives or for more long-term and ongoing issues they may have been struggling with since childhood. Although I may talk about practical issues in a client's life, my focus is geared towards helping a client better understand and accept themselves, and making their lives and relationships richer and more fulfilling.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
HIPAA-compliant video platform
12 Years Experience
Online in Rochester, NY
Rochester's identity has been shaped by the legacy of companies like Kodak and Xerox — their rise defining the city's mid-20th-century prosperity and their decline leaving a post-industrial community grappling with poverty, population loss, and the psychological challenges of navigating a city in long-term contraction. The University of Rochester Medical Center provides a major institutional mental health anchor — including one of the country's leading psychiatry departments — alongside a private therapy community concentrated in Brighton, Pittsford, and the Park Avenue neighborhood. Rochester's large Black and Latino communities, concentrated in the city's urban core, experience significant mental health inequities, and culturally affirming therapists are an important but undersupplied part of the local landscape. Rochester Institute of Technology and the University of Rochester contribute academic energy to a city that holds significant intellectual capital despite its economic challenges.
