Cacilda Pinto, LCSW

Psychotherapist
NY
Hi, my name is Cacilda Pinto, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University and a Bachelor’s degree from New York University. My clients describe me as compassionate, understanding, and insightful. I specialize in working with people who feel overwhelmed and unappreciated, and I am passionate about guiding them through their healing and growth. My approach I am trained in several approaches that create new insights about your feelings and behaviors. I’ll create a tailored plan based on your needs that may include helping you clarify your desires, learn new communication tools, and identify unhealthy patterns as they unfold. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, where you learn to replace unhealthy thoughts with constructive alternatives. My focus I help working professionals who feel stuck on the job or held back by how their brain functions, as well as people with challenging relationships. My clients include individuals with attention deficit disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. My communication style I am authentic and compassionate, striving to provide an environment where you feel safe. I have observed significant shifts in the people I have worked with, witnessing them become more empowered and assertive. My journey to therapy I became a therapist because I wanted to be the therapist I never had. I have always wanted to contribute to making this world a better place. I believe therapists help people heal and grow as individuals, and in turn, bring healing to the world. My goals for you I believe in working collaboratively with my clients to create a treatment plan. Together, we will explore how your anxiousness and perfectionism show up in your body. We will practice grounding and relaxing activities that help you regulate your emotions and gain more control over your feelings.
