Introduction

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself or your relationships? You’re not alone. Chronic stress, systemic inequities, and emotional demands can make it hard to know where to begin. If you’re here, you might be ready for change. I’m Gary Dillon, PhD, a licensed psychologist and Black male therapist in New York City and founder of Ally Psychological Therapy. I provide trauma-informed online therapy to adults across New York State, supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, racial and cultural identity concerns, relationship challenges, and the emotional impact of discrimination and marginalization. My approach is culturally responsive, collaborative, and relational. Together, we explore patterns shaped by past experiences while also building practical tools to support emotional resilience, self-trust, and meaningful change in the present. Therapy with me is a space where you do not need to code-switch, shrink, or perform. You get to show up as you are. Many of my clients are Black men and women, people of color, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and young adults seeking care that feels affirming, honest, and grounded. If this resonates, feel free to visit my website to learn more about my work and schedule a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit. You can schedule your free 20-minute consultation via the "Contact Me" page on www.allypsychotherapy.com. Speak soon!
