Miranda Savage, Mental Health Counselor - Limited Permit

In my work, I draw mainly from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy, all filtered through a holistic, client-centered lens. This means we’ll explore both the practical tools that help you manage anxiety and negative self-talk and the deeper emotional patterns and stories that shape how you move through the world. Our sessions are collaborative and tailored to you — your goals, your pace, your lived experience. You can expect curiosity, warmth, and a deeply human connection as we explore your emotions, relationships, communication patterns, values, and evolving sense of identity.

I hold a BFA in Theatre and an MA in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University. My background in the arts has instilled in me a creative, intuitive, and relational approach to therapy — one that values your story, your voice, and the unique texture of your experiences. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand how profoundly identity and culture influence our mental health, and I’m committed to offering an affirming, inclusive space for clients of all genders, sexualities, religions, and backgrounds.

I was drawn to this work because I’ve seen how transformative it can be to have someone truly listen, believe in you, and help you make sense of your story. Therapy is a courageous step toward understanding yourself more fully. Together, we’ll build a therapeutic relationship rooted in compassion, authenticity, and acceptance — and walk forward at your pace toward a life that feels more open, grounded, and deeply yours.
