Top United Healthcare-covered therapists and psychiatrists in New York
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am passionate about helping individuals create
meaningful change in their lives through a collaborative, supportive, and empowering therapeutic process.
I specialize in working with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or
feeling stuck.
Rather than focusing only on problems, I work with clients to uncover their strengths, develop practical
skills, and reconnect with their values. Whether you’re dealing with past trauma, daily stress, or seeking
personal growth, therapy can be a space for insight, healing, and real change.
I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University and bring both clinical training and
deep compassion into every session.
I'm so happy you're here and have chosen to take that first step that is often the most difficult. My primary focus is to meet you where you are on your journey and sit with you as we explore your story and sort through the experiences that brought you here. I will support you as we process the stuff keeping you feeling stuck.
As a board-certified mental health counselor with over five years of experience, I’m passionate about helping individuals live as their most authentic and fulfilled selves. I believe that prioritizing mental health is one of the most meaningful investments you can make in your life. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative space where you feel understood, empowered, and ready to grow.
Hello, I am Linda an LCSW who graduated from Columbia University in 1999. I Love what I do and consider myself a “people person” which makes my job so enjoyable. I have completed thousands of assessments and am goal oriented. Over the past 25 years I have worked with almost every population but do not consider myself a know-it-all, I still have room to grow.
Therapy is a safe space for you to explore and be heard. During our time together my role is to help foster a safe space and meet you where you feel your needs are. Together we can discuss the stressors which have you reaching out for therapy.
I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with experience supporting adults navigating anxiety, stress, and burnout. A lot of the people I work with are high functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in cycles of worry and overthinking. You can expect me to be calm, warm, and steady. I’m not going to rush you or pressure you to “perform” being okay. I’m interested in how your life actually works day to day: your responsibilities, culture, family roles, and the ways you’ve been coping, not just a checklist of symptoms. Many of the people I see are used to taking care of everyone else; in our work, it’s allowed to be your turn to be the one who gets supported.
I work from a client-centered perspective that utilizes vulnerability, genuineness, empathy, and unconditional positive regard to help those I work with safely explore the stressors and other life circumstances that may be negatively impacting their sense of peace and well-being in order to find effective strategies that will help achieve a balanced, happy, and healthy life. I have been providing clinical services since 2009 and speak both English and Spanish with native fluency.
I am an LCSW and an a Stony Brook University alum. I have experience working with patients from all ages and various problems including anxiety, depression, family/relationship issues, and stress management.
As a seasoned therapist I have found that the patient/therapist relationship is the cornerstone in building the therapeutic alliance. Life presents us with many challenges and I will help you face and deal with them. Our life’s journey is often marked by unexpected circumstances that are out of our control, childhood traumas, and so much else life has to present us with. I am experienced , compassionate and empathetic and we can explore together what your goals are and how to achieve them. My hope is that you will feel the safety to express and share anything and expect a non-judgmental and supportive response. I will be your therapeutic partner in working towards your goals to help you live a more positive life
