About Virginia

Virginia Goodremote is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York. She brings 23 years of clinical experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and panic-related concerns. Her approach centers on treating each person with respect and clear, practical support.

She uses straightforward, client-centered methods that start with listening to the story a person brings. Conversations focus on strengths and on small steps that make daily life easier. Sessions often include problem-solving and tools people can use between meetings.

Virginia also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. For clients with traumatic experiences, she uses trauma-focused approaches to address upsetting memories and reduce their impact on daily life. Solution-focused methods are used to set realistic goals and track progress over time.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including family and relationship stress, parenting challenges, grief and loss, anger, self-esteem, addiction-related struggles, and life transitions. She also supports people coping with ADHD, abandonment or attachment issues, and complications from adoption or blended family situations.

Virginia aims to make therapy practical and collaborative. She helps people identify what matters most, try doable changes, and build on what already works in their lives. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching steps and schedule a session according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Virginia works from client-centered principles that prioritize the person's goals and experiences. Client-centered Therapy means the conversation follows the person's concerns, with the therapist guiding and reflecting rather than directing; this helps people feel heard and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavioral changes; it is useful for anxiety, panic-related worries, and everyday stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Virginia will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which tools to try first, then adjust the plan based on what helps. Together the therapist and client track progress and pick practical steps to use between sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in, or reduce travel time. It also allows consistent follow-up over weeks as people practice skills and build on small successes.
