About Amanda Fogel
Relationship, OCD, & Career Stress Therapist

In New York, a Limited Permit allows a therapist who has completed their Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling to practice therapy while completing the required supervised 3,000 clinical hours for full licensure.

I conduct therapy sessions independently and receive ongoing weekly supervision from Julie. This means my clinical work is regularly reviewed and supported to ensure thoughtful, ethical, and high quality care.

Clients work directly and consistently with me, while also benefiting from structured professional oversight behind the scenes.

I meet with Julie for one hour each week for clinical supervision. During this time, we review treatment, discuss clinical questions, and ensure my work aligns with best practices and ethical standards.

Supervision also supports my ongoing professional development and helps maintain sustainable, thoughtful care for my clients.

We are an out of network practice and do not accept insurance, but we can help you get reimbursed if your plan offers out of network benefits for therapy.

Many clients are reimbursed 60 - 90% of the session fee once their out of network deductible is met. We can either submit claims on your behalf or provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance.

Visit our Fees & Insurance page to learn more and instantly check your out of network benefits. You can even estimate your cost per session using our free insurance benefits calculator!

Julie and I share a similar therapeutic philosophy and both provide thoughtful, relational, and evidence based care. Our differences primarily reflect areas of focus, stage of career, and availability.

I have specialized training in OCD,‍ ‍Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Career Transitions and Couples Therapy and may be an especially strong fit for clients seeking structured support for anxiety and intrusive thoughts. I offer slightly more flexible availability and a lower session fee, while working under ongoing clinical supervision.

Julie has over nine years of licensed experience and specializes in anxiety, attachment and relationships, and burnout.

If you’re unsure which clinician may be the best fit, you’re welcome to schedule a consultation to discuss your goals and explore what feels most aligned.

OCD and anxiety can overlap, particularly in how persistent and consuming thoughts can feel. Typically, OCD involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts paired with behaviors or mental rituals intended to reduce distress or gain certainty. Anxiety, on the other hand, often presents as ongoing worry or overthinking without the same compulsive patterns.

The distinction isn’t always immediately clear and it doesn’t need to be. Part of our work together is understanding the nature of your thoughts and responses so we can approach them in a way that feels both effective and supportive.

It’s common to wonder whether you’re “ready” for Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), especially since it can sound intimidating at first.

In reality, readiness isn’t about feeling fully prepared or unafraid. It’s more about having a willingness to begin approaching the thoughts, situations, or uncertainties you’ve been avoiding, with the right support in place.

ERP is always introduced gradually and collaboratively. We move at a pace that feels manageable, building both understanding and confidence along the way.

Part of our work together is determining whether ERP is the right fit for you, and if so, helping you engage with it in a way that feels both effective and sustainable.
