Meet Toby

Toby Werdyger, Therapist LMHC, NCC

Toby received her Master’s degree in Counseling for Mental Health & Wellness from New York University.  Toby has done extensive training in DBT, EMDR and Somatic Experiencing as well as two years of training in psychodynamic therapy. Using her training and insight she will provide you with the skills needed to help you regulate your emotions, improve relationships, manage crises, and help you overcome your life traumas. Toby will help you understand how your past is affecting you and help you practice Mindfulness to keep you healthy in the present.

Toby has always been drawn to people who are dealing with extreme emotions and appreciates working with them to help them better their lives.  It is very important to her to look at each client individually to assess their needs and tailor treatment specifically for them. She focuses on building trust and developing a therapeutic bond between patient and therapist throughout the course of the relationship.
