“The world is your oyster.” That was what my mom said as we held each other’s hands before I drove off to start my college life. Along with independence came feelings of insecurity that weighed down my motivation. But, with support, I found my way. We all need support sometimes. I’m glad you’re here to explore the benefits that clinical therapy might offer you. My name is Traci, and I am a second-year master of science student at the Columbia University School of Social Work in New York, specializing in Advanced Clinical Therapy. My eclectic professional and personal experiences will likely come in handy as you and I partner to do our best to move you closer to the peace, purpose, and fulfillment you deserve. I look forward to providing the space where you can feel safe. Traci Cecconello is a Therapist-in-training at Sol Health. Sol Health is a digital health startup that offers $30 therapy to Gen Zs by connecting them with the therapists-in-training accruing clinical hours.

As a Licensed Masters of Social Work, I have extensive experience providing therapy to individuals in various hospital and mental health settings. Valuing emotional safety, compassion, and empathy, I work collaboratively with clients to achieve their goals. Recognizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship, I work alongside clients to identify, understand and work through personal challenges. This can include, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, PTSD, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and adjustment. Believing evidence informs practice, I understand that it is the individual who is the expert of their experience.. Having extensive experience in clinical settings, including pre/post partum, I recognize the impact not only on the individual but their loved ones. I am both certified and proficient in various evidenced-based interventions, including Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. ​ You do not need to work through personal challenges alone. Psychotherapy can help in understanding the personal experience, promoting wellness and achieving goals. I believe it is privilege to be a part of someone else’s journey. My goal to create a supportive, judgment-free space, to allow us to work collaboratively and promote healing.

You are seeking therapy because you know it’s time for a change. Your anxiety or trauma have affected how you see and interact with the world, and feeling more at peace seems like a hard-to-reach place. Oftentimes, we’re our own worst critics. You may be telling yourself that you can’t meet your work or academic goals, address challenging relationship issues, or develop the self-esteem and creativity you need to succeed on your path in life. Your perspective of the world may have been shaped by childhood experiences you had little to no control over. Maybe you are a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and have lost the support of your family or loved ones due to issues related to your identity. Or perhaps you no longer know who you are anymore, don’t like who you are, or don’t know how to relate to other people. You’re here now because you’ve made the decision to become more aware of the negative self-talk that has been affecting daily functioning and ready to learn what to do with it when it comes around. In confronting your fears, and looking within yourself, you learn to understand how to make sense of the world, how to better cope with strategies and tools that are actually useful and your focus begins to shift to things that you can actually control. Seeking change is no small feat and takes incredible courage! Luckily, you don’t have to walk this path alone. Creating a safe space where you get to challenge those beliefs, invest in your well-being, and improve your overall life satisfaction is my highest priority.

Finding calm and clarity when your mind won’t slow down is possible. I can guide the way. We have more influence over our thoughts than we realize. In our work, you’ll learn to approach your thinking more intentionally. As your thoughts change, you’ll start to notice changes in how you feel, the choices you make, and how you move through your life. I help clients slow things down, make sense of what’s been difficult, and address the patterns that keep them feeling stuck. This often includes working through anxiety, depression, and the impact of trauma and past experiences. I also support women navigating life transitions, helping them feel more grounded and steady through change. My approach is thoughtful and practical, combining insight with tools you can use in your day-to-day life.

I also provide treatment for anxiety, depression, PTSD, identity issues, caregiver support, and family dynamics. I use a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach to therapy with an anti-racism lens, helping individuals identify stressors and co-create personalized treatment plans that empower them to make meaningful changes in their lives.

I specialize in supporting college students as they navigate academic pressure, identity exploration, relationships, and life transitions. College can be an exciting but overwhelming time, and therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and build skills that support both mental health and personal growth. I work best with undergraduate and graduate students who are motivated to understand themselves better, develop coping skills, and make meaningful changes during their college journey.

My name is Kate. I am a psychotherapist with 20 years experience in the field. My practice is LGBTQI+ focused, though clients of all identities work with me. Clients come to me to reduce distress and bring ease into their lives. I practice affirmative therapy that is trauma-informed, nonjudgmental, and direct. I view therapy as a collaborative journey towards self-discovery, healing, and symptom relief. During our first therapy session, we will outline your goals, discuss your expectations, and leave plenty of time for you to ask questions. We will create a therapy plan together that provides an environment for you to explore needs, process your past and present, and identify new approaches to challenges in your life. I utilize psychodynamic psychotherapy, behavioral therapies such as DBT and ACT, and attachment-focused psychotherapy. I believe therapy is an evolving process between client and therapist, and methods can shift as therapy unfolds. I conduct all sessions remotely via zoom. I have current availability for individual sessions and gender affirming surgery letters.

While you are uniquely special, your struggles are more common than you think. We all have challenges, and often in very universal ways. It’s all part of the human experience. Psychotherapy is a great way to help guide you through life’s trials and tribulations. It can be profoundly healing to have a safe space in which to be affirmed and productively challenged. Together we can explore issues related to ambivalence, shame, resilience, boundaries, connection, confidence, and self-development in order to help you fully show up in your life. I have worked with individuals experiencing depression, unhealthy relationship dynamics, life transitions, substance abuse, and trauma, as well as with the LGBTQ+ community. I also utilize a variety of evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Person-Centered Therapy. I base my practice around the use of empathy and empowerment. My style is warm and down-to-earth, while also naming things in order to illuminate insight and draw meaning. The key will be for me to support you in your own self-determination. Wherever you are today on your life’s path, I want to help promote positive change and growth.

As a counselor under supervision at Next Level Mental Health Counseling, I'm interested in working with folks experiencing anxiety, depression, body image concerns, eating disorders, LGBTQ+ issues, sex/intimacy concerns, neurodivergence, life transitions, and many more. I would love to build a collaborative, supportive, and compassionate space where we can explore your life history, narratives, thoughts, feelings, and more. I have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, as well as with ADHD, PICA, and OCD. I have also worked with students aged K-12 as well as college students. My prior clinical work was in a higher-level of care eating disorder facility where I developed nuanced understandings of eating disorders across a wide spectrum of experiences.
