Andrea Dogostiano

I graduated from Brown University with a BA in Psychology and Sociology and from Columbia University with an MSW in Health, Mental Health, and Disabilities. I am also a Certified Holistic Health Coach trained through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Coming from a mixed cultural background, including Caribbean upbringing and influences, I understand the unique ways culture, family dynamics, identity, expectations, and generational experiences can shape emotional wellness and relationships. As a mother of two, I also understand firsthand the complexities of balancing caregiving, ambition, personal identity, and mental health while navigating the demands of everyday life. My work is grounded in providing compassionate, culturally responsive, trauma-informed care that helps women feel supported, empowered, and more connected to themselves.

You are the one who holds everything together. Capable, dependable, thoughtful. Yet inside, you feel stretched thin. Maybe you are navigating postpartum changes and barely recognize yourself. Maybe the mental load never shuts off and partner support feels uneven. You find yourself overstimulated, resentful, or emotionally drained, then questioning why you cannot just handle it better. You want boundaries without guilt. You want clarity instead of constant overwhelm. You want to feel steady in your body, confident in your voice, and connected to yourself again instead of disappearing into everyone else’s needs.

I specialize in Postpartum & Maternal Mental Health, Women’s Issues, and Stress. As owner of Eden Root Therapy, I help women untangle overwhelm, lighten the mental load, and reconnect with a grounded sense of self. Together we build emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, and practical coping tools that support lasting resilience, clarity, and confidence.

If you are quietly carrying too much while everyone assumes you are fine, I see your strength and your exhaustion. You adapted to survive demanding seasons. You are not failing. Therapy with me is collaborative and steady, honoring your pace and your story. When you are ready to feel grounded, empowered, and fully yourself again, I invite you to reach out.
