About Barbara Castro

I am a Psychotherapist licensed in New York with 26 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, & parenting issues. My specialty is in working with women that are pregnant, struggling with fertility issues, or Moms that are experiencing post-partum depression or anxiety. My 26 years as a therapist coupled with my own personal experience with Perinatal Mood Disorder/Infertility allows me to provide very effective, empathic, and thoughtful care.

Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
