Anxiety, depression & complex trauma therapy — CBT-informed, trust-based sessions for adults ready to stop managing and start healing.

Hi, I'm Micaela. Starting therapy is a big step — but it doesn't have to feel clinical or intimidating. My goal is to offer a space that feels less like a doctor's office and more like a place where you can drop the mask, speak honestly, and finally feel understood. I'm a Clinical Social Worker trained at Hunter College, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. Whether you're stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by new challenges, or just struggling to feel grounded day to day, I'm here to help you find your footing. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. We'll build a relationship based on trust — not clinical checklists — and use evidence-based approaches to develop coping strategies that actually fit your life. The goal isn't just symptom management. It's building real resilience and reconnecting with who you actually are. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to figure it out alone. Reach out today.
