Unlock Your Past - Inform Your Present - Expand Your Future

Hi, I'm Nora.

Do you feel stuck in patterns that don’t make sense or find yourself reliving old family dynamics in your relationships? If you grew up in a home where emotions felt unpredictable or your needs were often overlooked, those early experiences may still affect you today. You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating. You deserve a space where your experiences are understood and your feelings make sense.

Therapy can help you feel heard, understood, and more grounded in your life. If this resonates, I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we might be a good fit.

I am a somatic oriented Licensed Psychoanalyst, and Certified Gestalt Psychotherapist based in NYC. I am warm, empowering and challenging when called for.

Amy Gelles

Amy Gelles

Therapist

Virtual • Poughkeepsie, NY


Hi, I’m Amy Gelles. I’ve been a therapist for over 20 years, with an MSW from Columbia University—but more importantly, I genuinely love helping people figure themselves out.

I didn’t end up here by accident. I started as a social worker in underserved communities, worked my way up to CEO of a major behavioral health agency... and then made a very intentional pivot back to what I love most: sitting with people (in person or on Zoom) and helping them to feel better.

So many of us are walking around thinking, “Why do I keep doing this?” or “Why do I feel this way?” ...and not getting great answers.

That’s where I come in.

I help you connect the dots, understand the patterns you’ve been stuck in, and actually shift them—so life starts to feel easier, clearer, and a lot happier - that is what I pride myself on doing.

I bring depth, insight, and a wide lens from years of experience—but also humor, honesty, and a very human approach.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New York

Finding the right therapist in New York starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a major life transition, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types in New York include licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus.

New York has one of the largest concentrations of mental health providers in the country, which can make narrowing your options feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most to you: a provider's specialty, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, their location relative to your neighborhood or commute, and their availability. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and approach so you feel more confident going in.

Therapy in New York can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see which providers are covered and get an estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit depending on their plan and location.
