Often the hardest part is finding the time
If you’ve been meaning to start therapy for a while and keep running out of week, you’re not alone. Usually it isn’t reluctance. It’s that getting to and from an office, on top of everything else, is the part that never quite fits. For most people, meeting online removes that obstacle.
Therapy without the commute
All of our sessions are held by secure video. For a lot of people, that’s the difference between starting therapy and putting it off again. There’s no travel and no waiting room, and you can meet from home or anywhere you have privacy.
Research consistently finds online therapy is as effective as in-person care for most concerns, and many people find it easier to keep up with week to week.

- Meet from anywhere private in New York
- The same quality of care as sitting in a room

Anxiety
The racing mind, the tight chest, the worry that won’t switch off even when nothing’s wrong.
Anxiety therapy ›OCD
Intrusive thoughts and compulsions that have quietly taken up more and more of your day.
OCD therapy ›Depression
The heaviness, the flatness, going through the motions while feeling far away from your life.
Depression therapy ›Couples
The same argument on a loop, the distance that crept in, wanting to feel like a team again.
Couples therapy ›Relationships & Dating
Patterns that keep repeating, anxiety around dating, figuring out what you actually want.
Relationship therapy ›Individual Therapy
A steady, private place to think out loud, sort through it, and feel like yourself again.
Individual therapy ›Not sure where you fit?
That’s what the free consultation is for. Tell us what’s going on, and we’ll point you to the right person. See everything we work with on what we treat.

Care from licensed New York clinicians

Therapy in Lynbrook, answered

Yes. Magenta Therapy is a New York practice based in Lynbrook, on Merrick Road. We’re a local, established practice that knows the South Shore, and we see adults throughout Nassau County and across New York State.
Are sessions in person or online?
All of our sessions are held online, by secure video. There’s no commute and no waiting room, and you can meet from anywhere you have privacy, whether that’s home or a quiet spot during the day. Research consistently finds online therapy is as effective as in-person care for most concerns.
Which Long Island towns do you work with?
Because we meet online, we work with adults all over Nassau County and the wider South Shore, including Rockville Centre, East Rockaway, Malverne, Valley Stream, Hewlett and the Five Towns, Oceanside, Baldwin, Long Beach, Franklin Square, West Hempstead, and Garden City. We also see clients throughout the rest of New York State.
Do you take my insurance?
We’re in-network with many major plans, including UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Aetna, Cigna, Oxford, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Oscar. We also work with out-of-network benefits and offer self-pay, and we can provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. We verify your benefits and tell you your expected cost before your first session. You can read more on our insurance and billing page.
How do I get started?
It begins with a free 15-minute phone consultation. You tell us what’s bringing you in, we answer your questions, and we match you with the therapist who fits. There’s no cost and no pressure to continue. You can book your free consultation here.
Why online instead of an in-person office?
For the people we work with, online therapy is simply easier to sustain. The drive, the parking, and the lost time are usually what make in-person care fall off after a few weeks. Meeting by video lets you keep therapy in your life even when work and family are full, while still working with a real, local New York practice.
What do I need for a video session?
A private space, a phone, tablet, or laptop with a camera, and a reasonably steady internet connection. We send a secure link before each session, so there’s no app to download or set up.
Start with a free consultation
It’s a short, no-cost phone call. We’ll talk through what you’re looking for, match you with the right therapist, and check your insurance before your first session.
