About Virginia
Virginia Goodremote is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who uses a client-centered approach to guide people through stressful and painful life moments. She focuses on practical steps and listens carefully so clients feel heard as they work on anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. Her style is straightforward and supportive for people looking for steady, compassionate care.
With 23 years of experience, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused methods when those approaches fit a person’s needs.
Background and approach
She helps people recognize patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way, then practices small, usable changes together. Sessions are aimed at concrete goals like managing panic, improving communication, or coping with loss. She also brings Solution-Focused Therapy tools to short-term concerns, helping people identify strengths and build on what already works.
That can be useful for parenting stress, career transitions, or relationship strain where quick, practical shifts are the priority. The emphasis stays on clear steps and measurable progress. Virginia has worked with people who have experienced abuse, attachment and adoption-related concerns, abandonment, and other trauma-related issues.
She supports those facing ADHD, addiction, anger, and intimacy-related difficulties by matching strategies to the issue at hand. People in New York can expect sessions that balance listening with action. Virginia encourages collaboration so each person’s goals shape the work.
She speaks English and provides care through several online formats to fit different schedules.
How her approaches work online and in session
Client-Centered Therapy is built around listening closely and following the person’s own goals. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters most to the individual, with the therapist reflecting back what she hears and helping people use their strengths to move forward.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and habits that interfere with daily life because it focuses on small, practical experiments between sessions.
She views finding the right approach as a joint process. The therapist will talk with you about goals and preferences, try approaches that fit, and adjust the plan as needed so the work matches what you want to accomplish.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and mirror a traditional session experience. Phone sessions work well when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing notes, and flexible scheduling for busy days. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, childcare, and daily life while still using CBT, solution-focused, or trauma-focused tools in a collaborative way.
