About Virginia
Virginia Goodremote is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 23 years of clinical experience. She focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, relationship strain, and coping with life changes. Virginia also lists blended family issues among her additional focus areas.
She uses straightforward conversations to help people name what is hard and find practical next steps. Sessions often look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and then try small changes to see what helps. She also draws on trauma-focused methods when past hurt is part of the current struggle.
Virginia's work is client-centered, which means she aims to listen first and adapt to each person's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) ideas are used to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Solution-focused techniques help people build on what already works and set concrete short-term goals.
People contact her for a wide range of issues including grief, anger, intimacy concerns, addiction, ADHD, and caregiver stress. She notes experience with adoption, attachment challenges, divorce and separation, and loyalty or abandonment concerns that can come up in blended households.
Her practice language is English and she is based in New York. To begin, people follow an online matching process and schedule a first session. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns back, and uses those reflections to shape practical steps that fit everyday life. This approach is helpful when someone wants their own goals honored rather than a fixed agenda.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions using CBT identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavioral changes to see what reduces anxiety, improves mood, or eases family interactions. It suits problems like anxiety, low mood, and repetitive thinking that affect relationships.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss methods with the client and together they will decide which tools to try first. That collaborative process lets the plan change as new needs or priorities appear.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy household schedule, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoid travel time on a school day. These practical benefits can help therapy fit into family life while still focusing on goals and day-to-day challenges.
