Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
What makes my practice unique is the way I integrate evidence-based care with a deeply collaborative, person-centered approach. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel safe enough to be fully themselves, understood without judgment, and supported in a way that honors their autonomy, values, and lived experience.
I work from a place of curiosity, respect, and cultural sensitivity. I always meeting clients where they are and moving at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor therapy using various modalities to fit each person’s needs, goals, and emotional experiences.
Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to navigate what they are going through. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you better understand yourself, your patterns, and your emotional world so that you can begin responding to life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
I also prioritize accessibility and convenience by offering fully virtual therapy, allowing you to access care from the comfort and privacy of your own space. With flexible scheduling, therapy can be integrated into your life in a way that feels realistic and supportive rather than overwhelming.
If you are looking for a therapeutic space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin creating meaningful change that aligns with who you are and what matters to you, I would be honored to work with you.

Healthy Minds NYC | Vanessa Baumback
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
For a long time, you've handled it. You stay busy, you stay ahead, and it mostly works. Then something breaks through anyway — a panic attack out of nowhere, or a reaction that's way bigger than the thing that caused it. You can't think your way out of it, and working harder isn't helping.
That's usually a sign your system is still holding onto something it never got to process. It's not a willpower problem.
I specialize in EMDR, which is a well-researched approach to trauma that helps your brain actually process old experiences so they stop driving how you feel now. I work with successful, high-functioning people on anxiety, depression, and trauma — including the kind that doesn't look like trauma. The loss you moved past too quickly. The thing you've never said out loud.
I see clients remotely, throughout New York, and my office has options for in-person care as well. EMDR works well online, and for most of my clients the flexibility makes it easier to actually commit to the work.
I'm straightforward and I'm kind, and I won't let you talk circles around the thing you came in to deal with. You've been the strong one for a long time. You don't have to be that with me.
If you're ready to stop managing this and start working through it, let's talk and see if we're a good fit.
