Getting to know Deirys Gonzalez

Hey there, I'm Deirys Gonzalez, and I'm on a mission to make therapy relatable, insightful, and welcoming to everyone. With over nine years of experience in mental health and a Master’s in Clinical Counseling from Fordham University, I've learned that the best therapy is the kind that meets you where you are and helps you grow from there. I earned my stripes at Fordham University, but my real education came from working with people from all walks of life. Whether you're a teen trying to navigate the ups and downs of adolescence, a woman juggling a million responsibilities, or anyone in between, I'm here to listen, support, and guide you through it all.

What should a new client know about working with you?

In our sessions, expect a mix of warmth, insight, and yes, even a little humor. Therapy shouldn't feel stuffy or intimidating—it should feel like talking to a friend who's got your back no matter what. Together, we'll explore different techniques and strategies to help you manage anxiety, overcome past trauma, and find meaning in every aspect of your life. Whether it's learning mindfulness, diving into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or trying out holistic methods, I'll tailor our approach to what works best for you.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Not sure if therapy is right for you? Let's chat! I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to see if we click. If we do, we'll dive into an intake session and start crafting a plan to help you thrive. So, if you're ready to take the next step towards a happier, healthier you, I'm here to help. Let's embark on this journey together—your best self is waiting.

    Highly recommend her for her understanding and expertise!
    Deirys was very kind, however our session didn’t feel cohesive or insightful. Despite it being an intro session (our first time meeting), there was little to no introduction, and the conversation was somewhat stilted as a result.
