Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Does the past still haunt you? Are you stuck thinking about a difficult experience, a relationship, a memory? Past Traumatic experiences and painful relationships can steal the joy out of life. So can negative self-talk. I can help you live more in the present and look positively towards the future. I bring over 15 years of clinical experience into my virtual and in person practices. I integrate both EMDR and psychodynamic therapy, two therapy approaches that I am certified in. I work with STAIR-NST as well, an approach that integrates both cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment theory. Don’t wait any longer to start feeling better. Let’s begin this journey together.

Farzana Rahman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
Having worked for a decade, I have supported clients through the nuanced and demanding areas of interpersonal stress, major life transitions, identity exploration, and the long-lasting impact of early adverse childhood experiences. I hold particular care and awareness towards the cultural, relational, and systemic forces that shape a person’s sense of self. I feel especially attuned to how family histories and early attachments influence adult relationships, therefore, I often invite clients to explore identity, unlearn old narratives, and build relationships that feel grounded and authentic. My unique, yet collective experiences as a child of immigrant parents and a South Asian woman allow me to recognize how family expectations, cultural identity, gender identity, and other parts of ourselves are important in the therapy work.

Resilience Therapy Group
Therapist, LCSW, LMHC, LMSW, MHC-LP, PMH-C
You're the one who holds a lot together, at work, at home, for the people who count on you. Underneath that, something has been asking for attention: the anxiety that won't quiet down, the patterns that keep repeating, the grief or the history you've never had room to feel. At Resilience Therapy, a group psychotherapy practice with offices in Manhattan and Port Washington and online therapy across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and several other states, you don't have to sort it out alone. Our clinicians bring real range, from anxiety, trauma, and OCD to addiction, relationships, depression, and life transitions, so the care you get actually fits the life you're living.
Because we're a team rather than a single therapist, we can match you with the clinician who truly fits what you're navigating, whether that's an evidence-based approach like CBT or EMDR, family and couples work, or a warm, depth-oriented space to understand yourself more honestly. Our therapists work with individuals, couples, families, teens, and adults, and some also offer sessions in additional languages such as Russian, French, and Spanish. Reaching out is often the hardest part, so let's take that first step together and find the right person for you.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine, collaborative relationship—one where you can speak freely and be met with curiosity rather than judgment. My approach is thoughtful and attuned, helping you make sense of patterns, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way and work toward a deeper understanding that can open up new possibilities for how you relate to yourself and others.

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.

Dr. Jeffrey Spodak
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in working with people who are depressed or dealing with addiction, (alcohol abuse and compulsive sexual behaviors in particular). Sometimes even just beginning to speak out loud about your struggles can start the process of change. In our work together, we won't just manage your symptoms; we will look deeper. By exploring how these challenges first took root, you can gain the clarity needed to make empowered decisions today. This combination of insight and action can create powerful and lasting change.
