Getting to know David Larocco
Life can feel overwhelming — even when you’re “holding it together” on the outside. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, stretched thin, or disconnected from who they want to be. You may be navigating pressure at work, trying to meet everyone’s expectations, or feeling like you’ve lost a sense of direction or confidence along the way.
My goal is to offer a space where you can slow down, understand yourself more deeply, and feel supported as you make meaningful changes.
I work with clients who are dealing with:
- Anxiety, self-doubt, or chronic overthinking
- Perfectionism or feeling like you’re “never doing enough”
- Imposter syndrome or work-related stress
- Major life transitions (career shifts, parenthood, changing relationships)
- Grief and loss
- Low self-esteem, shame, or feeling disconnected from emotions
I also have extensive experience supporting men who are navigating evolving roles in relationships, family, and career. Many men struggle with vulnerability, emotional expression, and the pressure to “be strong.” I offer a judgment-free space where those expectations can be explored honestly and safely.
My approach is grounded in psychodynamic therapy — not in rehashing the past endlessly, but in understanding the patterns, beliefs, and emotional habits that shape how you move through the world today. Together, we’ll work to uncover new meaning, shift unhelpful patterns, and cultivate a sense of clarity and confidence.
Clients often tell me that therapy with me feels thoughtful, collaborative, and grounding.
I am a licensed clinical social worker and completed my master’s degree at Hunter College, Silberman School of Social Work.
Whether you’re experiencing a specific challenge or simply feel disconnected or overwhelmed, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I would be glad to meet with you and begin the process of understanding what you need and how we can get there together..

In-network insurances
David Larocco, LCSW 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.
