Online therapy allows you to access affirming mental health care from wherever you are in New York.

According to a 2021 survey from the American Psychological Association, 96% of psychologists say teletherapy is effective. If you're ready to explore whether online therapy could work for you, let’s find a time to connect.

What to Expect in an Online Therapy Session

What to Expect in an Online Therapy Session

Online therapy sessions at Expansive are just like in-person ones. They are centered on connection, presence, and emotional safety. The only difference is that you’re meeting from wherever feels most comfortable to you.

Here’s what you can expect:

- A secure video platform
- An affirming therapist who sees and supports all of you
- A space to process what’s present: trauma, relationships, identity, anxiety, and more
- Collaborative goal-setting, if that’s part of your healing
- Gentle, ongoing support at a pace that works for you

Why Clients Choose Expansive Therapy NYC for Online Therapy

At Expansive Therapy, we see online sessions as an opportunity to meet you exactly where you are, both emotionally and geographically. Our clients choose us for the same reasons we started this practice: to create an affirming, relational, and deeply human therapeutic space, one where LGBTQIA+ people can bring their full selves into the room, even if that room is a screen. Every therapist at Expansive brings a commitment to curiosity, presence, and care, because we believe that healing happens in relationships, no matter the format.

"I have been seeing Jacqueline Yang remotely for about 3 years now, and she is my rock! ... I love how progressive, open minded, intellectual, and supportive her therapy methods are..... Nothing but positive things to say about my whole experience with Expansive Therapy! :)"
