Book a therapist or psychiatrist in New York covered by United Healthcare

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over ten years of clinical experience. In my practice, I work with adults and couples of diverse backgrounds. I am a sex-positive therapist and familiar with LGBTQA issues.

I have experience working with depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, cultural and immigration difficulties, identity issues as well as relational difficulties and conflicts.

I believe that therapy can be an essential tool used to maintain a well-balanced, healthy, and fulfilling life. As a therapist, I find it important to create a safe and friendly environment. I strive to always be in tune with what you need and assist you in exploring whatever difficulty you may be experiencing.

I have worked in the field since 2009 and have experience in inpatient psychiatric social work as well as individual and family counseling. Over the past couple of years I have focused my continuing education on trauma-informed care, including EMDR and specifically attachment and somatic based approaches. I am most experienced working with adolescent, adult, and older adult populations.

My name is Elizabeth DeAngelis and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NYC. I earned my Ed.M at Columbia University in mental health counseling. I also received an MA in psychology and religion at Union Theological Seminary. At Union I received specialized training about clients' existential/spiritual concerns. My goal is to offer clients a safe space to process emotions without judgment. I want to help clients explore their past and present stressors to overcome blockages in life.

Many clients come to therapy because they’ve reached a roadblock in their lives. I work with each person together, to help go beyond that impasse. Sometimes, it is helping to clarify and act on goals. Other times, there may be the need to understand one’s past before formulating a plan. A client who feels their therapist is there to work together and support their decisions, is more likely to achieve their goals. I work actively with each client to help them reach a happier place.

I offer an emphatic approach, based on realistic expectations with achievable goals tailored for each individual. I work collaboratively, able to readily offer my ideas and suggestions as benefits the client. I believe in continuous evaluation of therapy’s progress. I work with families and children and am experienced in play therapy.

Coming for therapy is the first step in moving forward. I believe in helping my clients in their personal, and unique growth. Asking for help, I believe, is beginning your path to empowerment, and getting your life back on track.

Hola, Welcome! My name is Monique and I’m a bilingual mental health counselor with over seven years of experience supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and emotions. Over the years, I’ve worked with children, adolescents, adults, caregivers, and professionals navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, depression, life transitions, and burnout. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in negative thinking patterns, or struggling with stress in relationships, work, or major life changes. I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so they can develop practical tools to manage stress, build healthier boundaries, and feel more in control of their lives. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients can explore stress, transitions, relationships, and personal growth in a way that feels both practical and empowering. My goal is to help you build clarity, resilience, and confidence as you create a life that feels balanced and aligned with who you are.
