Dorothy Schmitt

I enjoy working with all age groups and have spent the bulk of my career in college student mental health, most recently as Associate Director of a college counseling center in the Metropolitan NY area. I have an easy-going approach to therapy which allows the "hard stuff" to be processed in a relaxed and safe environment. I am passionate about being a therapist and consider it a privilege to assist and accompany my clients on the pathway to change.

Our first session will be focused on what your goals are in therapy and how our collaboration will get you to where you want to be. Together we will set objectives, and begin the journey by exploring what is not working in your life but also what is working. I often assign homework- things to think about during the week that reinforce what we have focused on in our session.
