Therapists in Upper West Side, New York, NY

Hello! My name is Dani Cleary and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), based in Long Island, New York, and working with clients via telehealth. I work with adolescents, adults, and persons 65 years and older. I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress, and grief, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a Psychodynamic Approach, and Strength-Based Perspective. I have found that my approach and style are a good fit for a broad range of ages, as I typically treat adolescents to 65 years and older populations. As broad as those ages are, comes the broad range of conditions and transitions in life.

She is dedicated to meeting the individual needs of each and every client by developing a healthy relationship together and actively listening to each client’s unique story.

Throughout life, we all face many challenges...Maybe it's a painful break-up, being passed over for a promotion, a recent health event, or a traumatic experience from the past that you can't let go. As a clinical psychologist for over 30 years, I have successfully helped my clients gain insight into themselves so that they can change behavior, reconnect to their resilience and make significant improvements in their lives and relationships.I work with individuals, couples and families. I tailor treatment to the client because everyone has their own life circumstances, set of strengths and weakness, and agenda for therapy.

Great to connect with you! I'm Margo, a licensed clinical social worker in the state of New York, bringing 15 years of experience to help you navigate through life's challenges. Specializing in anxiety, depression, and trauma-informed care, I utilize evidence-based practices, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to create a non-judgmental and safe space for clients to heal. My diverse background includes working with various populations, from teenagers in the juvenile justice system to children in foster care. Currently, I focus on supporting parents and addressing mental health issues for both children (0-5) and adults.

I help adults struggling with self-love. Using strategic interventions, our work together will help you develop practical skills, health and wellness routines and address your mental and emotional needs on a fundamental level.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual therapy to children, adolescents, and adults who reside in New York State. I specialize in the perinatal period and family life and have extensive experience working with a range of struggles including depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, grief, family conflict, life transitions, and parenting challenges. I work collaboratively with you to increase your understanding of your own life and build insight into conflicts you may be experiencing.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families of all possible configurations. If you are seeking therapy for your child, I will also work with you to assist you in parenting your child. I listen for the voices of those who feel unheard in a variety of interpersonal contexts; those who may have experienced difficult or abusive relationships with a primary attachment figure (not necessarily a parent), or who have experienced the loss of a parent, and who may struggle with anger, shame, a sense of invisibility...or maybe feelings they cannot yet describe.

Despite always doing the best we can in a given moment, there are times when we get stuck, feel pain, or want to be doing better. As a therapist, I strive to help individuals build awareness, increase self-acceptance and develop the tools they need to make desired improvements in their lives. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with adolescents, young adults, adults and families. Using an interactive, authentic and non-judgmental approach, I aim to provide a space that feels safe to explore how your patterns of thinking and coping with emotions may be getting in the way.

I am a clinical social worker with over thirty years of experience working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families. My role as your therapist is to compassionately support personal growth, using empirically supported interventions, and providing practical strategies to handle life's many stressors. I provide culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care, and welcome all ages, genders and sexual identities. Curiosity, empathy, and validation of your personal truth are essential components of my practice and I treat my clients as partners in developing their own life solutions and healing process.

If you are seeking psychotherapy, you are likely feeling distressed, disillusioned, or simply “stuck” in one way or another. The ways in which you have traditionally managed life’s inevitable challenges may seem less effective than in the past, as habitual patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating may have become self-limiting. Psychotherapy is often an effective way of addressing these kinds of struggles. In my practice, I work with patients to foster enhanced awareness of self-defeating patterns, develop a sense of autonomy to engage in more adaptive behaviors, and ultimately live more peacefully, meaningfully, and fully.

It has been a privilege to walk along side others when they want additional help in dealing with relationship, career, health, and life transitions or when they want to just talk things out. My doctoral training and experience in the field for over 20 years allow me to work with a wide range of issues. I have worked in different capacities including as an adjunct professor, supervisor of therapy/ testing, and a psychotherapist in hospitals, universities, and military clinics. I am currently offering telehealth services to adolescents (ages 11 and up) and adults.

Deciding to begin psychotherapy is one of the kindest and most important choices you can make for yourself. It can be a turning point in your life, but it can also feel scary to talk to someone you don't know well. I work with individuals and couples, providing a warm, safe, confidential environment where I will listen carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues you are struggling with--both in terms of how they affect your current life and in terms of how they became issues in the first place.

My approach to therapy is geared towards both developing insight as well as finding ways to promote healing and growth. In session, we often work to develop a deeper understanding of ourselves and the patterns that permeate our lives. Depending on your goals, we may also incorporate mindfulness or other somatic practices to help promote nervous system regulation. Therefore, sessions can flexibly move between exploratory, experiential, or solution-focused.
