Amber Weiss, LMHC, THTC, NCC

Founder of Transformative Mindset

Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor

Licensed to Practice in NY & FL

Licensed to Practice in
NY & FL

​Amber Weiss studied psychology for over 10 years and graduated from New York University with honors and a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling and Wellness. Throughout her experiences, she has seen success in working with individuals with addictions, various anxiety disorders, trauma, depression, emotional eating disorders, along with individuals on the autistic spectrum. However, her scope of knowledge is not limited to the populations listed above.

My Framework

Amber’s theoretical approach is catered to each individual’s needs which are specifically modified based on what one needs to achieve their desired outcome. In most cases, she tends to combine behavioral, cognitive, person-centered, and psychodynamic perspectives. Furthermore, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) are the primary modalities she uses in her sessions. DBT is a motivational model that consists of having the control of awareness to be present in an experience and its outcome, and then learning how to specifically modify your vision to get your preferred outcome. MBCT teaches an individual to be fully present in the moment and therefore have control over their feelings and thoughts. REBT consists of modifying impractical and irrational beliefs to experience a rational and practical outcome. In witnessing breakthroughs, Amber has come to realize that ​various techniques and tools contribute to optimal success. She believes that each client may process therapy differently and it’s essential to utilize multiple approaches when attempting to find the most suitable fit for each individual case.

BETH FRIEDMAN, MHC-LP

“Happiness is your human right, and I make it my duty to help you find it.”

Beth Friedman earned her degree in Psychology and Psychoanalysis from Tel Aviv University and holds a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Yeshiva’s Ferkauf Graduate School. She has completed extensive training to become a trauma-informed counselor, equipping her to support individuals facing trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, bipolar I, schizophrenia, and other mood disorders. Passionate about breaking the stigma surrounding mental illness, Beth strives to empower marginalized communities by helping them gain autonomy over their lives and mental health. During her internship at the East Village Access PROS program, she worked closely with this population, reinforcing her belief that mental illness affects people from all walks of life. Committed to inclusivity, she is dedicated to working with clients of all backgrounds, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or religion.

My Framework

Beth’s preferred therapeutic modalities include psychodynamic, person-centered, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. With psychodynamic psychotherapy, she works with clients to find out how their previous life experience has impacted their current lives. It is integral to use a person-centered approach where clients take an active role in their mental health journey. She carefully listens to each client throughout their work together, giving thought and attention to how to best meet their goals and needs. She incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy in unlearning certain thoughts and behaviors to gain control. She also believes in teaching grounding techniques and mindfulness as tools for clients to use outside of therapy. Regardless of intervention, Beth believes that each person is an expert in their own life. She is here to guide clients in learning about themselves throughout their mental health journey.

QUIN AXELSON, MHC RESIDENT AT NYU

Quin 1 (1)

"Life is both beautiful and challenging. But you do not have to go through it alone. May this be the first step in becoming your most empowered self."

Quin Axelson is a warm and intuitive Master’s level counseling student at New York University’s Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness program. She believes that each individual has their own unique story, challenges, and needs, and that therapy can help bridge the gap between one’s current and ideal life. Her goal is to provide you with tangible skills to navigate life’s uncertainties with confidence, ensuring that you leave therapy feeling better than when you walked in. She specializes in working with teenagers and young adults, addressing a spectrum of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, identity crises, OCD, trauma, and life transitions.

My Framework

Quin utilizes an integrative approach guided by various evidence-based techniques including cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and relational therapy. Do not worry if these terms are unfamiliar; she recognizes that there is no one-size-fits-all model, and thus, centers her work around the unique needs of each individual.

Reaching out for help can be intimidating, but Quin is here to offer a safe space where you’ll feel understood and supported – but also challenged when appropriate. Together, you will work to overcome obstacles, deepen your understanding of yourself and those around you, and commit to living a more fulfilling life. She is so glad you are here.
