Therapists in New York, NY

I collaborate with my clients to help them find a better understanding of themselves. The process may include exploring how they have arrived at where they find themselves in life; how patterns in their relationships with the important people in their lives have developed and are sustained; how emotions and emotion-laden expectations may limit possibilities; how the therapeutic relationship can provide support, insight, improve coping skills and relationships with others, expand opportunities, improve performance, and increase satisfaction.

My name is Heather Mauro, and I’m a licensed clinical social worker with twenty-five years of clinical experience. I enjoy working with adults as they move through various life stages. I focus on issues such as Adoption, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, and Parenting. I utilize Attachment-based, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Family Systems, Narrative, and Strength-Based Therapies. I believe strongly in the power of connection, connecting to your authentic self, establishing meaningful relationships, and igniting your passion.

Asking for help can be difficult. Seeking professional support can feel overwhelming. I approach treatment from a solution focused lens. Our therapy will focus largely on helping you to develop the skills and tools needed to reach your goals and live a meaningful life. My expertise is in both addiction treatment and behavioral therapies [DBT and CBT]. This allows me to approach treatment with knowledge and experience supported by research while also employing a wholly individualized approach, understanding each person has unique needs.

We all experience difficult times. For many of us life presents ongoing challenges such as maintaining healthy relationships, pursuing professional goals, managing depression and anxiety, transitioning through life's stages, or negotiating issues of identity and self esteem. We want to be productive and feel good in healthy ways. I have experience in helping people through these kinds of struggles to find rewarding new ways of being in the world.

I use a form of therapy called Supportive-Expressive Therapy which is a psychodynamic treatment that has been shown to be effective and efficient by primarily helping people get in touch with their feelings and the problematic ways they engage in personal and professional relationships. The initial session helps the client and I get an understanding of the problem that brought them to seek therapy and what life might be like without the problem. This gives people a chance to see if we might be able to work well together.

Many of us lead busy lives with little space to breathe, think, and make choices with clarity. We hold ourselves to unsustainable standards in our careers, relationships and as parents.

Sometimes our expectations, goals and circumstances come at the expense of clarity and fulfillment. I work with individuals & couples to reconnect while understanding how the past impacts present living. We collaborate to build a foundation of skills that promote healing as individuals and within relationships.
