Therapists in Long Island City, NY

My approach is goal-oriented and integrated – pulling from multiple disciplines like Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solutions Focused Therapy. While keeping the individual’s needs in mind, an intentional humanistic approach remains at the forefront. Ultimately we’re going to need to have a meaningful relationship if we’re going to create change.

At LIC Marriage and Family Therapy we establish effective communication and positive self-esteem to help empower our clients to understand themselves and their partner by acceptance and validation.

Thank you for reaching out. My name is Jonathan Le. I am a licensed mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral counselor and I believe that a non-judgmental and empathetic relationship is the utmost importance of meeting the goals of the client. I believe that counseling is a safe space where it is okay to be authentic and it is okay to be vulnerable too. With therapy we can work on ways to empower, on ways to cope with negative moods and negative behaviors, change faulty thinking and to change lifelong beliefs about one's self. Regardless of situation and behaviors, I believe we can work on ways for you to get back to wellness.

Are you finding yourself constantly overwhelmed by anxiety? Are the symptoms of your lingering anxiety impacting the quality of your life?

The sage Lao Tzu said, "At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want". There is a deep drive inside of us to form meaningful connections to ourselves, to family, and to community. This is a journey you do not have to take alone. My clients have come to me when going through such life changes, crisis, burnout, the end of a relationship, or a major job shift. I help them navigate these rocky waters and provide a safe haven for them to be seen, heard, validated, understood, and - if need be - challenged.

Anxiety, depression and relationship issues can range from restricting to debilitating. Have you found yourself making the same mistakes in your personal and professional life? Are you stuck in an unsatisfying relationship or job, where you feel unable to move forward? Do you have a tendency to keep rehashing past mistakes? Are you feeling depressed and anxious as a result? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then psychotherapy can help you find the answers you seek and the tools you need to promote growth and change in your life because the ability to heal is within each of us.

We all experience "stuckness" sometimes and feel disconnected from those we love most. Maybe you find yourself revisiting the same old territory in your mind on a loop, and find that it is hard to make a change on your own. Or maybe you have faced a moment of rupture in a close relationship, and find your world torn apart. Perhaps you are noticing unhelpful patterns in yourself or your relationships, and are now feeling ready to explore them. Or you might find yourself avoiding social situations, even though you have a sense it might help you feel better.

I help patients deal with blocks that prevent them having the best possible life and healthy, loving relationships.

My goal as a therapist is to create a supportive environment for folks to explore their gender and sexuality. Perhaps you identify as queer, bisexual, lesbian, gay, pansexual, asexual, trans, nonbinary, agender, poly, kinky, something else, everything, and/or nothing at all. You deserve to have a space where you can learn more about the different parts of yourself without judgment. As a queer person who has sought out therapy myself, I know how challenging it can be to find an affirming therapist. Even if your identity isn’t central to your therapeutic goals, know that every part of you will be welcome in our work.

I work with individuals in a supportive and creative environment to open dialogue and explore life's challenges. The opportunity to engage in verbal or non-verbal expression can support to reframe the past, their thoughts, emotions, life patterns, and to discover a deeper awareness of themselves.
