WHY GOODING WELLNESS
This isn't your average therapy practice.
Gooding Wellness wasn't built overnight. Our founder, Gordon Gooding, has spent over 30 years working in the schools and communities of Long Island, as a school social worker, a clinician in private practice, and now as the director of one of the area's most experienced group practices. He didn't move here to open a practice. He grew up here. He raised his family here. He knows this community and he built this team to serve it.
Today, Gordon runs the practice alongside Peter Juliano, who joined as a partner and oversees its day to day clinical operations. Peter's background in inpatient treatment with teens and families adds a level of depth few local practices can offer.
Every clinician we bring on is fully licensed, deeply trained, and chosen with care. No fresh-out-of-grad-school generalists. No algorithm-matched strangers on an app. Just experienced, qualified therapists who know what they're doing and genuinely care about the people they work with.

WHO WE HELP
Sound familiar?
You're holding it together, work, family, relationships, all of it. But underneath the productivity and the packed schedule, something feels off. Maybe it's the anxiety that won't quit. The relationship that's hitting a wall. The kid who's struggling. The grief you haven't had time to feel.You're not falling apart. But you know you could use some real support, not a hotline, got Chat GPT, not a self-help book. An actual person who knows what they're doing. That's exactly who we work with at the Gooding Wellness Group.
