This is my first career; it has always been my dream to help people. I never envisioned doing anything else in life. I’ve worked in a myriad of settings, ranging from satellite clinics based on early educational settings to social adult daycares (and everything else in between, including hospitals and intensive day treatment). I have completed training to be able to work in these settings, including courses on TF-CBT, motivational interviewing, and mental health first aid.

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I’m Paige Allegra Blayne, a therapist who believes that healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and accepted. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, OCD, ADHD, depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration, eating disorders, or life transitions, I strive to create a warm and supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are.

I have experience working with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds, including members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals recovering from trauma, and those facing challenges related to body image, infertility, substance use, and women’s mental health. My practice is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and the belief that meaningful change happens when you feel safe enough to explore every part of yourself without judgment.

My goal is to walk alongside you as you build resilience, reconnect with your strengths, and create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Andrea Szabo

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I believe that healing happens through connection, curiosity, and self-compassion. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, burnout, and the lasting effects of difficult life experiences.

My approach is authentic, collaborative, and down to earth. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe showing up exactly as they are, without judgement or pressure to have everything figured out. I have training in Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems (IFS), and I enjoy helping clients deepen their understanding of themselves while building practical tools for everyday life.

Outside of therapy, I value nature, creativity, and the belief that healing can happen in many forms. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their strengths, gain insight, and create meaningful change that feels sustainable.

Psychologist

My therapeutic method is tailored to fit your temperament and individual experience. You may be facing a combination of personal, social, and institutional adversity. Discomfort may be unavoidable, but you are not alone; I can help you transform hardship or tragedy into resilience. My process is effective; it evolves as you do. If you experience negative feelings like inadequacy, grief, or shame, I can help you understand the origin of the discomfort and make changes toward ease. Sometimes, worry can be helpful; other times, anxiety and depression lie to us. Having worked in both economically-strained and prosperous communities, I have seen the impact of trauma and neglect on various people. I also understand being a white male can insulate me against the prejudice and discrimination commonly experienced by people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community; I trust my client’s experiences and take responsibility for my blind spots.
