I’m a formerly harsh self-critic and PhD psychologist with 30+ years of experience. I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindful Self-Compassion. If you struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship problems, I’m here to help.

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in the treatment of a wide array of mental health difficulties. People come to me with relationship problems, work issues, stress and other life challenges. In addition, I see individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma and other more serious disorders.

I’m Dr. Joe Yanni, a licensed psychologist with over two decades of experience supporting adolescents, young adults, adults, and families through life’s challenges. I began my career as a full-time school psychologist, a role I continue to hold, working with students with emotional disabilities in a specialized setting outside New York City. That experience gave me a deep understanding of how anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, emotional regulation, and academic demands can intersect during key stages of development.
My work is grounded in trust, compassion, and a practical desire to help people move forward emotionally and in daily life. I use an integrative, research-informed approach that blends cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic theory, humanistic care, person-centered therapy, and lifestyle-based strategies. Therapy should feel collaborative and personalized, not clinical or scripted.
In private practice, I help clients better understand what is getting in the way, identify patterns that contribute to distress, and develop practical strategies for change. Whether someone is struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, school-related challenges, low confidence, emotional regulation, or life transitions, my goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized care that supports clarity, coping, and meaningful progress.
I work best with clients who want therapy to feel thoughtful, active, and practical. My style is warm but direct, and I try to help clients connect insight with real-life change. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, and families in person in Scarsdale and Pleasantville, as well as virtually throughout New York State.
I’m Linda Orji, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over Eleven years of experience in health care. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Rochester in Rochester, NY. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for individuals with both medical and psychiatric conditions, which deepened my understanding of the powerful connection between the mind, body, and overall well-being.
I'm a therapist trained in Psychoanalysis and Creative Arts Therapies with twenty years years of experience.
I have experience working with depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship issues, sexual difficulties, trauma, loss, end of life issues, and coping with medical illness. My practice is diverse in terms of culture, race, and sexual orientation. I offer online telehealth in NY and CT. Please reach out with any further questions or to make an appointment.
I utilize a multi-theoretical basis for all my clients. For my practice, trust, warmth and communication are the foundations of a good therapeutic relationship. I have a specialty in child/adolescent/family issues. However, I see many young adults who have issues feeling at ease and confident in their relationships and workplace. I endeavor to lift my clients out of the dark place that may be weighing them down to finding the solutions that will enable them to live freely.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Yonkers
Finding the right therapist in Yonkers starts with getting clear on the type of care you need. Therapists, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists each bring different training and specialties. If you're looking for talk therapy to address anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship concerns, a licensed therapist or counselor (such as an LMHC, LCSW, or LMFT) is a common starting point. If you need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help. Many providers on Headway offer both.
Yonkers is home to a diverse range of neighborhoods — from Getty Square and Nodine Hill to Park Hill and the waterfront — and residents across the city have access to providers who offer virtual sessions, in-person appointments, or both. When evaluating a potential therapist, consider their experience with your specific concerns, their therapy approach, and whether their availability fits your schedule. Reading a provider's full bio can help you understand their style before you commit.
Therapy in the New York City metro area can be expensive without insurance. One of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs is to see an in-network provider. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Yonkers who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
