Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck — in relationships that don't work, careers that feel hollow, or patterns they can't seem to escape no matter how hard they try. As a Licensed Psychoanalyst with over 20 years of experience, I offer a different kind of therapy: one that goes beneath the surface to understand the unconscious forces that shape your choices and experiences.
Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with what life throws your way, and why certain patterns keep repeating — and what you can do to change them. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to live more consciously and deliberately.

Pia Roper-Evans
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R Therapist
If it feels as if you are repeatedly being inundated with new stressors before you have been able to resolve stressors that were already existing. Therapy can be helpful in making sense of it all. It can be a place to talk through stressors as well as to identify patterns and interactions with loved ones that may stem from core relationships.
Do you want to uncover attributes for personal tendencies that you find stressful and confusing.

Stephanie Davis
Hypnotherapist, Cht
Your mind and body are deeply connected—and lasting change begins within. Hypnosis helps reprogram the subconscious mind, easing stress, releasing emotional blocks, and strengthening the mind-body connection. Research shows hypnosis can lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and support overall well-being. Every session is more than relaxation—it's an opportunity to heal, grow, and reconnect with your best self.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist and psychotherapist. I serve in leadership and teaching roles at NYU, where I teach the next generation of psychiatrists and work at the intersection of college mental health and academic medicine. My practice focuses on high-achieving professionals and students navigating mood and anxiety disorders, ADHD, perfectionism, and identity development. I created my private practice space, The Light Room, to be decidedly different from traditional psychiatric practices — care that's evidence-based yet deeply human, personalized, accessible, and responsive.
I specialize in integrating psychotherapy with medication management to offer a truly comprehensive treatment approach.
