Getting to know Christopher Villani

Do any of the following statements feel like you? 1: I can't seem to fulfill my short- or long-term goals. 2: I'm often anxious, even panicky. 3: I'm often depressed. 4: I often feel unappreciated. 5: I'm uncomfortable around people. 6: I pull away when feeling close to someone. 7: My wife/lover and I are not doing well. 8: I have family, friends, a good job, and still feel empty and alone. 9: I have difficulty expressing my feelings and thoughts to others. 10: I tend to put everyone's feelings before mine, then feel resentful and angry. You are the expert on you—let me be your guide on your journey to self-fulfillment and self-realization. I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Long Island University. I have worked in outpatient settings, conducting both group and individual sessions, as well as serving as a therapist in private outpatient practices. I feel that my experience is wide-ranging in regard to mental health. I excel in working with adolescents as old as seventeen and adults well into their geriatric years. I have found that an integrative treatment approach leads to the most successful outcomes. These skills include resolving childhood conflicts that contribute to present difficulties, modifying and changing negative thoughts and behavior patterns, and cultivating resilience and empowerment so that you can move confidently forward.

In-network insurances

Christopher Villani, LMHC has 200+ in-network plans.

Don’t see your insurance?

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $150 for 50 minutes
Ongoing session: $150 for 50 minutes
  • Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
  • Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

More information on payments and coverage

Before your first session, we recommend checking with your insurance provider to confirm the status of your deductible, copay, and any coinsurance amounts. Insurance plans vary, and these details help avoid surprises once claims are processed. Please also note that No Shows or Late Cancellations (for the first session) incur a $150 out of pocket fee. If you have any questions about this, feel free to let us know.

Felt comfortable with Christopher Villani. Would see him again
Chis is a wonderful guy. I felt really comfortable during my sessions with his and was able to open up freely without any hesitations. I would recommend him to my friends as well!
Chris has been very helpful during this difficult time in my life. He helps me organize my thoughts and sort through my feelings as the paradigm of my life changes.
The only way to describe Mr.Villani is that he’s the best counselor that I’ve had! He’s has helped me through my deepest and darkest times. He even managed to help me overcome my anxieties and other fears. Thank you so much, Chris! You deserve only good feedbacks. May you help more people like me!
Outstanding communicator and excellent listener. First session was groundbreaking for me. Made a significant revelation in my conversation with Chris.
Video visit
I had been seeing a counselor from a local large facility and was very disappointed in their lack of connection. I decided to see what else is available and checked our zocdocs and booked an appointment with Chris. I have never had such a pleasant and insightful session in my life. He actually seemed like he generally had interest in my life, and even took notes while we spoke and later connected some events that I had never realized had any influence on each other. Amazing. Chris is obviously highly intelligent and honestly, his scope of knowledge, emotional intelligence and empathy puts most all other counselors I have seen to shame.
