Amy Kryszak, LCSW — Therapist in New York

Hi there, I'm Amy!

My approach to therapy is eclectic. I like to tailor the therapeutic approach to what the client needs.

My focus

I am comfortable treating clients with a variety of goals, including managing depression and anxiety symptoms, working on behavioral change to manage ADHD symptoms, and goal setting to improve stress management, including in the areas of work and relationships.

My approach

I have experience in cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, as well as components of motivational interviewing and goal setting, as well as dialectical behavioral therapy.

My communication style

My tone and communication style are very supportive. I think of challenging my clients in a way that makes them feel confident in their ability to take the steps to be able to make the changes that they are looking for.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey as a therapist started when I was young. I always enjoyed meeting people and helping others. I grew up in a large family and found that I enjoyed being a help and support to others.

My goals for you

I like to have my clients set realistic and small, attainable goals. I want the small wins to serve as motivation to keep going, since you will be able to easily see the successes.

Our first session

In our first session, you can expect to share what you feel comfortable with. I want to get to know you and learn about your situation so your treatment can be customized to where you are and craft the goals to where you want to be.
