I am a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist based in Pleasantville, NY, and I specialize in treating young adults and adults for anxiety and depression.​ Whether you are struggling with excessive worry or sadness, navigating a difficult relationship or life transition, or living with painful memories that undermine your sense of safety and self-worth, I will bear witness to your story.

Dawn Catucci is the Founder and Clinical Director of Mental Health Counseling for Emotional Well-Being PLLC, which is a small group private practice.

My approach to therapy is psychoanalytically informed, borrowing tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based approaches. I take time to get to know the person in their present day-to-day life, as well looking carefully at past history, patterns of thought and behavior, and relationship dynamics. My goal is for my clients to develop a deepened relationship to themselves. This work involves us partnering to find language and create structures that facilitate change.

I believe in meeting individuals where they are at and supporting them in achieving resiliency. By taking a compassionate and genuine approach, my goal is to help you feel understood and supported. Through collaboration, our work will focus on gaining awareness into patterns and dilemmas, and using your fundamental strengths to lead a meaningful life and cope with the stressors that inevitably come with it. A main focus of my work is to maintain an empathic, warm, and non-judgmental approach as the complex pieces of your story are shared over time.

The path to therapy varies greatly from person to person: a quest for a deeper understanding of the self and the world around you, a response to an immediate crisis or life transition, or a desire to overcome ongoing obstacles that stand in the way of your goals and life satisfaction. Whatever your journey to therapy may be, I provide a comfortable, non-judgmental environment in which to explore long-standing patterns, personal perceptions, family experiences and current situations, offering the opportunity to increase self-awareness and pursue greater personal fulfillment in your relationships, career, and other areas of life.

If you are an adult (daytime hours only) looking for either short-term or longer-therapy to target anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues or parenting, I can help. My practice is limited to Tuesday mornings. It is also fully virtual. In my experience, people improve more when they do psychotherapy homework, so i'm looking for folks who are game to try!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with almost ten years of experience, currently working as a clinician in private practice and at a small group practice in Briarcliff Manor, NY. Previously, I worked for a Westchester County Agency for six years, where I delivered individual, group and family therapy with respect, empathy and cultural sensitivity. Utilizing a strength-based compassionate, non-judgmental approach in working with clients, I cultivate a safe environment for individuals to discover their motivation to find clarity and make real change and progress.

I have been working with people faced with significant loss for the past twenty years. People often ask me if this work is depressing - I always say that the stories I hear are not only stories of loss - they are love stories. We grieve becaue we love. Sometimes that love is complicated, and so the grief is complicated. Sometimes the loss changes us in ways that we feel are unbearable and unsustainable. My work is about helping you move from a state of deep pain and preoccupation with loss to a place where you can reengage with life.
