Therapist

Virtual • New York


Something brought you here today. Maybe you're carrying something heavy that's hard to name. Maybe a relationship isn't working the way you hoped. Maybe life shifted in a way you weren't prepared for and you haven't felt like yourself since. Whatever it is — you're in the right place.

I work with individuals and couples navigating reproductive health, life transitions, and relationships. I specialize in infertility, pregnancy loss, and postpartum adjustment, as well as the moments when life leaves you feeling stuck, disconnected, or not quite yourself. With couples, I focus on communication, intimacy, and rebuilding trust and connection after rupture.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person

855 New York 146, Clifton Park, NY

I have had extensive experience with trauma in individuals from adolescence to late adulthood. I believe that trauma looks and feels different to every person. Two people experiencing the same event will have different outlooks and understandings of it. A traumatic event can take many forms. I want to help you pick up on where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors come from, even if you have never experienced “trauma".

Esti Greenwald

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Lakewood, NY


You should know that I truly see you — not just your symptoms or diagnosis. Many clients come to me feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, scattered, or stuck — often after feeling unheard or dismissed by other providers. My goal is to understand the full picture — your goals, challenges, and values — and create a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout your care. I work with children, teens, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and other psychiatric concerns.

I combine evidence-based psychiatry with a holistic, personal touch. Care with me is collaborative, thoughtful, and never rushed. I don’t push medications or rely on quick fixes — I work with you to find clarity, balance, and lasting relief through treatment that fits your life.
