Heather Berti, LCSW — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Heather!

I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, women's mental health, and substance use. My approach blends warmth with evidence-based methods to help you make meaningful progress toward your goals.

My focus

I work with young adults and older clients facing anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, women's mental health concerns, parenting stress, and substance use. Together, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that honors your strengths and goals.

My approach

I tailor therapy to your unique needs, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. These approaches are highly effective in reducing symptoms and empowering you to create lasting change.

My communication style

I prioritize building genuine rapport and creating a nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard. I practice active listening and offer thoughtful feedback, always ensuring you feel comfortable and supported.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist after witnessing loved ones struggle to find the help they needed. Supporting individuals through their challenges and celebrating their progress is deeply rewarding to me.

My goals for you

We'll collaborate to define what you want to accomplish and create goals tailored to your needs. Throughout our work together, we'll monitor your progress and adjust our approach as needed.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and how you've been feeling recently. I'll ask questions to understand your experience while we begin building trust and connection. We'll discuss your concerns and start mapping out a treatment plan together.
