Meet Aly
Founder and Lead Therapist of AMG Psychotherapy
Welcome to my practice! I'm Aly, a NYC based licensed mental health counselor. My approach is rooted in empathy and non-judgment, creating a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can work towards achieving your goals and enhancing your well-being.
About Me
Education & Credentials
Aly holds a Master Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University (2022). Before entering into graduate school, she earned a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at Gettysburg University (2020). Aly's intensive psychological background have not only depended her understanding of human behavior, but also shaped the foundation of her therapeutic approach.
​​
Her post-graduate experience includes working in a school-based mental health clinic and a community mental health clinic where she worked with clients from elementary to post-grad and parents. Aly has treated clients with a variety of conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, suicidality, self-harming behaviors, adjustment issues, disruptive behavior, and more.
Therapeutic Approach
​​​
Aly uses an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), all while staying grounded in a relational approach. By weaving together these modalities, she tailors her work to meet each client’s unique needs, honoring the complexity of their inner world while providing practical tools for change. Whether addressing emotional regulation, self-understanding, or cognitive patterns, Aly fosters a collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel empowered to set meaningful goals and actively participate in their healing process. This flexible, client-centered approach allows her to support individuals in both understanding themselves more deeply and creating sustainable, values-based change.
As a therapist in private practice, I support young adults navigating the uncertainty and emotional ups and downs that come with growing up and life transitions. Whether it’s feeling stuck between who you were and who you’re becoming, managing the pressure to have it all figured out, or coping with the quiet anxiety that comes with change, my goal is to provide a space where you can explore these experiences with compassion and clarity.
Services
Individual Therapy
Our individual therapy sessions support young adults navigating the many transitions of growing up — from shifting identities and changing relationships to new responsibilities and expectations. These seasons of change can bring feelings of uncertainty, pressure, and self-doubt, especially for those who tend toward high-functioning anxiety
Parent Counseling
Our parent counseling sessions offer a safe and nurturing space for parents to explore their concerns and challenges. Whether you're seeking guidance on communication, discipline, or navigating the emotional ups and downs of parenting, experienced counselors are here to help.
