Online therapy is one of the ways we make healing more accessible and affirming without compromising connection. At Expansive Therapy, we’re committed to creating a space where LGBTQIA+ clients can feel truly seen, supported, and empowered, wherever they are in New York.
Whether you’re exploring identity, navigating trauma, or simply looking for someone to talk to, our therapists bring deep presence, curiosity, and care into every session, even virtually. For many of our clients, online therapy is a meaningful expansion of what healing can look like.
Expansive Therapy is 100% queer-owned and most of our therapists are LGBTQ identified. We have trained with the best in the field and want to bring that quality of work to your sessions, online from anywhere in the state, or in-person.

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! :)"

We believe therapy should feel accessible right away, including the financial side. Expansive Therapy operates as an out-of-network provider and works with most PPO and POS plans that offer out-of-network mental health benefits.
Before your first appointment, our admin team verifies your insurance and sends a transparent coverage summary. Once you’re underway, we manage claim submissions and any denials so you don’t have to deal with insurance paperwork or calls.
Session rates range from $75 to $250 depending on your therapist’s experience, about 35% below the NYC average. Whether you’re in Bed-Stuy, Chelsea, or Inwood, we’ll help you navigate your options with care and clarity.

Even though your online therapist can technically be based anywhere, all of our therapists are either fully licensed in the states they serve or practicing under the close supervision of licensed clinicians as part of their training. That means whether you're in New York or Los Angeles, you can count on receiving affirming, ethical care from a deeply supported provider.
