New Dawn Counseling and Therapy

Hi, I’m Ruth Alcantara-Zboinski, LCSW-QS, and I created New Dawn Counseling & Therapy to offer adults a safe, inclusive space to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, and life transitions—and I bring both clinical expertise and deep compassion to every session. I’m licensed in New York, Connecticut, and Florida, and I work virtually with clients across these states. My approach is rooted in evidence-based modalities like CBT, EMDR, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, but I always tailor our work to your unique story and needs. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to explore new ways of healing, I’m here to walk alongside you. I believe therapy should feel accessible, affirming, and grounded in trust, and I’ve built my practice to reflect that. Insurance Questions? Let’s make it easy. I’m in-network with select Aetna, Cigna, and Optum plans through Alma and Headway. Coverage varies by plan, so I always recommend verifying your benefits before booking. If you're unsure whether your plan is accepted, you can: Use the “Check Your Insurance” button on my Alma profile. I want therapy to feel accessible from the very first step. No surprises. No confusion. Just clarity, care, and a path forward.

Ruth is extremely easy to talk to and puts you at ease talking about mostly everything. She comes across as understanding and non judgmental. I would recommend her to anyone.

JLVerified patient

Ruth is SO genuine. Whenever we talk, I feel like I have someone in my corner who is looking out for my best interests. We have been doing EMDR therapy for a few months, and it has been truly life changing. Without getting into the details of my diagnosis, I will say that my day-to-day lived experience has been drastically improved.

I was nervous to start therapy but Ruth has been great and has made me feel so comfortable. I have grown to trust her very much as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone with big or little problems.

IMVerified patient

Horrible experience overall.
