Daniela Garcia, LCSW

Psychotherapist
NY
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Rutgers University, which laid the foundation for my compassionate and collaborative approach to therapy. I help clients build resilience and develop practical skills to navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, life transitions, and body image concerns. My approach to therapy is client-centered, focusing on creating a safe space for healing and growth. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care to help clients develop coping skills and foster resilience. By tailoring my approach to each individual’s needs, I empower clients to navigate challenges, build self-awareness, and create meaningful change in their lives. I typically work with adolescents and adults facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, life transitions, and body image concerns. Many of my clients seek support in managing stress, building self-esteem, and developing healthier coping strategies. I am most comfortable treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma-related concerns, and issues related to self-worth and identity. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions. My style is compassionate and collaborative, balancing gentle encouragement with direct, practical guidance. Working with me feels like having an authentic and validating space to process challenges while also gaining concrete skills to foster growth and resilience. I was drawn to a career as a therapist through my deep curiosity about human behavior and a personal understanding of how mental health challenges impact individuals and families.
