Norma Barreiro, LCSW — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Norma!

I offer confidential, convenient telehealth therapy to teens and adults located throughout New York State. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, family conflict, school or work-related pressure, grief, and significant life transitions.

My focus

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, workplace stress, self-esteem concerns, grief, and personal or professional changes. I also support teens who may be struggling with academic stress, social concerns, changes in family relationships, emotional regulation, self-confidence, or the transition into adulthood.

My approach

My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and tailored to each client’s individual needs. Together, we will explore the concerns affecting your well-being, identify unhelpful patterns, and develop practical strategies to help you cope more effectively.

My communication style

My therapeutic style is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I work to create a safe space where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable being themselves. Working with me is supportive and goal-oriented. We will explore your concerns and focus on meaningful progress at a pace that feels appropriate for you.

My journey to mental healthcare

When you work with me, you can expect to feel welcomed, respected, and supported. I bring warmth, empathy, and genuine interest to each session while helping you stay focused on the changes you want to make. Therapy with me is a space to be honest, reflect, build on your strengths, and develop tools that can support you beyond the therapy session.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting collaboratively and tailor it to each client’s needs, priorities, and pace. Together, we will identify what you would like to change and break larger goals into realistic, manageable steps.

Our first session

In your first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy, your concerns, strengths, and goals. You can share at your own pace as we begin creating a supportive treatment plan tailored to your needs.
