Is this a phase? Is it more than that? Is it time to talk to someone? Those questions are hard to sit with — and the longer they go unanswered, the heavier they get. Brightline's New Rochelle clinic is here to help you find clarity. Our therapists work with kids and teens across Westchester to understand what's really going on and build practical skills that stick. Parents are part of the process from day one, because the work that happens at home is just as important as the work that happens in session. ## Could my child benefit from therapy? You don't need a diagnosis or a crisis to reach out. Most families come to us somewhere in between — something feels off, and they want to understand it better. That's exactly the right time to call. Some signs it may be worth exploring support: - Anxiety or worry that's getting in the way of everyday life - Outbursts, meltdowns, or emotional shutdowns that are becoming more frequent - A noticeable shift in mood, energy, or personality - Difficulty with focus, organization, or keeping up at school - Social struggles or withdrawal from friends and activities - School avoidance or a growing dread around the school day - A quiet sense that something has changed, even if you can't put your finger on it Trust that instinct. We'll help you figure out what it means and what to do next. ## Why New Rochelle families choose Brightline Brightline's New Rochelle clinic sits in the middle of downtown, at 140 Huguenot Street — steps from New Roc City, walkable from the Metro-North station, and easy to reach from I-95. Paid parking is available right next door in the New Roc Center garage, so getting here is one less thing to navigate. What brings families to Brightline isn't just the convenience. It's the fact that Brightline now has two clinics in Westchester County — New Rochelle and White Plains — which means more availability, more flexibility, and a care team that knows this community. ## How to find us ### New Rochelle address and hours 140 Huguenot Street, Suite 205 New Rochelle, NY [Find us on Google Maps](https://maps.app.goo.gl/pRNRgS7kehsNPa4fA) **Mon–Fri:** 8am to 7pm ### Transportation **Driving**: From I-95, take Exit 16 and follow Huguenot Street into downtown New Rochelle.

That means a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation — structured conversations with both parent and child, followed by a feedback session where we walk you through what we found and what we recommend. You'll leave that process with a care plan built around your child specifically, and a team that genuinely understands what your family is navigating. From there, Brightline will recommend one of these paths: ### Therapy - Persistent low mood, lack of motivation, withdrawal - Trauma and stress - Physical symptoms without an identified medical cause - Sustained difficulties with everyday tasks - [Therapy →](/what-we-offer/therapy/) ### Anxiety support - Worries and fears, difficulty concentrating - Physical symptoms (like racing heart) - Feeling nervous, restless, edgy, afraid, or fearful - Avoidance of things they need or want to do - [Anxiety →](/what-we-treat/anxiety/) ### OCD support - Repeated or ritualized behaviors that are driven by anxiety, fear, or disgust - Overdoing things more than is needed - Fear of not doing something “just right” - Avoiding things they need or want to do - Intrusive thoughts about any number of topics - [OCD →](/what-we-treat/ocd/) ### ADHD support - Difficulties paying attention - Difficulty sitting still - Distracting or disruptive behaviors - Impulsive actions - [ADHD →](/what-we-treat/adhd/) ### Disruptive Behaviors support - Tantrums and other behavioral upsets - Impulsive actions - Troubling behaviors at school or with friends - Difficulty following directions - [Disruptive Behaviors →](/what-we-treat/disruptive-behaviors/) ## Meet our New Rochelle clinical providers ### Alba Reyes, LCSW, LICSW “I am passionate about helping children** **and families** **thrive in life and mental wellness.
