About

Judith Lathrop is a New York-based marriage and family therapist who earned her master’s degree in marriage and family counseling in 1996 and holds a state license to practice marriage and family therapy in New York - license number 000794. With 28 years of clinical experience, she has worked with families, couples, and individuals to strengthen relationships and promote healthier functioning.

She also completed advanced training in Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy through the Wellness Institute in Issaquah, Washington. That specialization helped her identify and heal personal issues and contributed to her development as a more effective therapist. A range of personal growth experiences has further shaped her perspective and deepened her capacity for empathy; she believes working through her own challenges was necessary in order to bring her best to others.

Her clinical work addresses depression and anxiety, relationship and family concerns, coping with life changes, stress management, parenting support, grief, anger, self-esteem difficulties, addictions and support for family members of addicts, and conflict resolution. Her therapeutic style blends Family Systems, Strategic, and Solution-Focused approaches, and she adapts interventions to meet each person’s unique needs.

She may recommend practical homework when it seems helpful to clarify issues and support progress. She aims to move at the client’s pace while also offering gentle challenge when someone appears stuck, operating from the conviction that the answers reside within the individual and her role is to guide discovery of those answers.

Judith understands how difficult it can be to reach out for help and recognizes the courage involved in seeking a more fulfilling life. She is committed to supporting and empowering people as they move forward and looks forward to getting to know individuals on their journey.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist remotely can really help. For common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions - research supports that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care. A major benefit is the convenience it offers. You can meet with a therapist in the format that suits you best - video appointments, phone calls, live chat, or messaging within an app - which often makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care. All therapists are licensed professionals, and if you find that one approach or provider isn’t the best match, you have the option to change to someone else at any time.
