Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Looking for a Sex-Positive Therapist Who Gets It? Here I am! 🙂 Hello there! I’m Mike Cotayo, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping people navigate life’s complexities. I earned my MSW from NYU in 2000, and in 2007, I embarked on a transformative journey to become a Gestalt Therapist, further refining my skills to provide compassionate, effective care. As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I bring a unique perspective to my work, specializing in sexuality, relationships, and identity. My practice is rooted in a commitment to embracing diverse lifestyles and choices.
Whether you're exploring kink, polyamory, or the intersection of disability and sexuality (a focus of my Ph.D. research), I’m here to support you with empathy, humor, and zero judgment. Laughter can be a powerful tool for healing. I believe every session should be a safe space where you can be yourself and even find moments of lightness on your journey.
Let’s work together to create a life that feels authentic, fulfilling, and uniquely yours. Ready to take the first step? Reach out today—I’d love to help! Licensed in AZ, CT, NJ, NY.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
If you’re here, there’s a good chance you’ve been holding it all together for way too long—and it’s starting to show. You might look high-functioning on the outside, but inside? You’re anxious, exhausted, and stuck in your own head. Maybe you can’t sleep. Maybe your boundaries have disappeared. Maybe you’ve hit that point where “fine” just doesn’t cut it anymore.
I’m Dr. Gayle MacBride, a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience—and I specialize in working with people like you: smart, capable, driven... and quietly running on empty. My clients don’t need another therapist who just nods and takes notes. They want straight talk, usable tools, and therapy that actually leads somewhere.
That’s why my approach starts with clarity and direction. Together, we define your goals (aka deliverables), then get to work using evidence-based therapies like CBT, CBT-I for insomnia, Prolonged Exposure and CPT for trauma, and the Gottman Method or Discernment Counseling for relationship issues.
I offer telehealth therapy through my private practice, so you can access meaningful support with flexibility and convenience—without giving up the personal connection.
If you’re ready to stop white-knuckling your way through life and start making real, lasting change, I’m here. Let’s define your deliverables and get to work.

Rene Gonzalez
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Childhood emotional neglect (CEN) can happen in families with loving parents who weren't there for their kids enough, and in abusive ones, too. It can lead to anxiety, depression, or trauma, and because these experiences are about what didn't happen, the wounds can be hard to see. That's why having guidance from an expert can make such a difference. Treatment with me works because I have extensive training from institutions like NYU and Columbia, but also because I draw from my own healing journey to know what actually works.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I specialize in working with individuals (children, teens and adults) and couples, and I am incredibly passionate about the work I do and the people with whom I have the honor to work. My areas of expertise are anxiety / stress, relationship challenges, conflict resolution, intrusive negative thoughts and patterns, loss/grief and depression.
Most clients and couples choose to work with me because they are looking for nontraditional therapy that provides them with concrete skills to improve their everyday lives and/or address specific concerns. Holistic and integrative in my approach, I believe that there is no "one size fits all" in therapy. Therefore, I uniquely tailor therapy sessions to meet each client's needs and goals. With extensive experience and training in results oriented and solutions focused cognitive therapies, positive psychology, mindfulness, Buddhist Psychology, Gottman Method for Couples, meditation, and yoga, I offer creative approaches that result in meaningful change and growth.
Above all, I am committed to creating therapeutic relationships that are built on trust, respect, transparency, empathy, honesty, and equality, and I always counsel from a nonjudgmental place of understanding and compassion.
I am happy to offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see how I can best support you! Why wait tomorrow when you can start today? Please reach out to schedule your free consultation on my calendar: https://calendly.com/jenna-sackman/phone-consultation
