Justine Astacio | Lotus Theory LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
We offer online therapy for clients who prefer the flexibility of meeting from home or are located outside of the immediate area. Virtual sessions maintain the same thoughtful, somatic-based approach as in-person work, with a focus on both emotional and physical awareness.
Even in an online setting, we guide clients in noticing how stress and emotions show up in the body, while building practical tools for regulation and support. Sessions are collaborative, grounded, and designed to help you feel more steady and connected, wherever you are.

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 Finally, remote sessions could also work better for individuals who may be feeling too depressed or withdrawn, those experiencing social anxiety, generalized anxiety, PTSD, ASD and find the outside world far too over-stimulating or unsafe at this time.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. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
After decades of providing psychotherapy and assessment in offices, I’ve moved recently (2019) into a different space: video. Active listening in a safe, private setting is foundational to this work. I’ve learned that the catalytic elements of good therapy can thrive via video too. Save yourself a trip away from work or home!

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).

Together, we co-create a space where you don’t have to perform, shrink, or hide. You get to just be—and from there, we explore what’s been getting in the way of living more freely and fully.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
Clients who reside locally most often schedule in-person sessions. Other local clients can elect to blend in person and remote hypnotherapy sessions using Zoom. Clients who reside out of the immediate area or in another State will have all of their sessions using Zoom. To accommodate the online process, I use a HIPAA compliant version of Zoom to protect your privacy and confidentiality. If you are not familiar with Zoom, note that it is a free download that works splendidly with a cell phone, tablet, or laptop. Once you download Zoom, and before your first session, we will connect and practice a bit at no cost to you. My goal is to make the remote process both easy and comfortable for you. My online hypnotherapy services are identical in content to those I conduct in person. In that I pride myself as being an educator charged with teaching you a lifelong skillset, you will need to be able to receive and print email attachments. Lastly, especially for those who reside out of the area, payment is by way of PayPal.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Therapy with me is active, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices—we are doing real work together, not just talking about your week. Each session is intentional and engaging, focused on creating meaningful insight and change you can feel in your daily life.
I see myself as a warm, intuitive, and deeply attentive therapist who believes that meaningful change happens when people feel truly safe, accepted, and understood. My goal is to offer a nonjudgmental space where you can exhale—where you don’t have to have the right words, the right story, or the right reason to be there. Therapy with me is about feeling heard, finding clarity where things have felt confusing or stuck, and reconnecting with yourself in a way that feels real and sustainable.
I am deeply passionate about relationships, emotional honesty, self-acceptance, and the quiet, often unseen struggles people carry. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why they’re unhappy when, on the surface, life looks “fine.” I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, co-dependency, shame, guilt, and the lasting impact of past experiences or trauma. I also help people talk about things that are hard to name—topics that may feel embarrassing, stigmatized, or kept private for a long time.
I especially enjoy working with people who are curious about themselves and open to growth, even if they feel nervous or unsure at first. You don’t need to be “creative” or insightful to start—just willing to show up. Together, we gently explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns, and look for more flexible, compassionate ways of relating to yourself and the people you care about. Therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time; there can be space for curiosity, reflection, and even moments of lightness along the way.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, offered with warmth and humanity. While we honor your past, our work focuses on what’s happening now—and on helping you feel more present, more grounded, and more aligned with your values. I strive to help clients move through life with greater awareness, emotional balance, and self-trust, while reducing the anxiety, sadness, or self-criticism that may be getting in the way.
I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the Unified Protocol for emotional difficulties, and mindfulness-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills. In simple terms, this means we work together to notice patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors—and gently shift what’s no longer serving you. These approaches are practical, supportive, and designed to help you feel better, not just understand why you feel the way you do.
At its heart, therapy with me is about building a genuine, supportive relationship—one that helps you feel more like yourself, more connected to others, and more confident in how you move through your life.
