About Virginia
Virginia Goodremote is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with 23 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, family conflict, grief, and anger. She also helps people facing relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction concerns, ADHD, and trauma-related issues.
Her work focuses on the person in front of her rather than labels. She listens to how daily life is affected and helps people break down problems into manageable steps. Conversations often include looking at thinking patterns, experimenting with different responses, and building practical skills to handle upsetting moments.
Virginia uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work grounded in the client's priorities. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and find concrete changes that make life easier. Trauma-Focused Therapy guides her when past trauma is part of the picture.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and action-oriented. She supports people who feel overwhelmed by anger, resentment, or sudden outbursts, helping them notice triggers and try new strategies. She also addresses related struggles like guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation.
Her approach mixes practical skill-building with careful listening. People who want to reduce reactivity or improve communication at home or at work will find direct, step-by-step support. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session to map out next steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's priorities and gives space to what matters most. In practice this means the therapist listens for what is most troubling and follows the client's lead to decide what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses exercises to test unhelpful thinking. CBT can be useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical changes and short-term goals that reduce immediate problems and build momentum.Choosing the right mix of techniques is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. That conversation is part of the early sessions so both therapist and client can find the best approach together.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Many people find video or phone meetings save travel time and allow a session during a lunch break or between errands. The exact session formats available should be confirmed before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. Discussing practical scheduling questions is part of the first steps so sessions can be arranged to suit everyday routines.
