Glendalee Muniz, LCSW

Psychotherapist
NY
My work is grounded in the belief that healing is multidimensional, honoring the mind, body, and spirit. I integrate traditional psychotherapy with mindfulness, somatic awareness, and innovative modalities such as Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy to support deeper emotional healing and transformation. I also offer cannabis-informed guidance for clients interested in holistic wellness approaches, always rooted in safety, intention, and clinical integrity. I view therapy as a sacred collaboration where science and intuition meet. This is a space where your voice, culture, and lived experience are honored, and where healing unfolds at your pace. I am especially drawn to clients who are open to exploring themselves more deeply and who want a therapeutic experience that goes beyond symptom management into meaningful self-connection and growth. My practice is shaped by cultural humility, ancestral resilience, and the understanding that many emotional patterns are inherited, learned, or carried through generations. Healing, to me, is both personal and collective. It is about reclaiming power, restoring balance, and rewriting narratives that no longer serve you. By blending evidence-based therapy with integrative practices, including Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy when appropriate, I aim to expand what is possible in healing while maintaining a strong ethical and clinical foundation. Each modality is chosen thoughtfully, in collaboration with you, and only when it feels aligned with your goals and readiness. At the heart of my work is the belief that you are already whole. Therapy is the space where you reconnect with your inner wisdom, build trust in yourself, and cultivate clarity, confidence, and compassion as you move forward in your life.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Working with me is collaborative, grounded, and deeply respectful of your lived experience. I create a space that feels warm, safe, and non-judgmental, where you can show up exactly as you are without pressure to perform, explain, or have everything figured out. My style blends compassion with gentle honesty, offering both emotional support and practical tools to help you create meaningful change. I believe therapy is not about “fixing” you, but about helping you reconnect with your own wisdom, boundaries, and sense of self. Sessions often feel like a balance of reflection, grounding, insight, and empowerment. We move at your pace, honoring your nervous system, your history, and your readiness for growth. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and integrative. I draw from psychotherapy, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and, when appropriate, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy as a deeper, more intentional layer of healing. KAP is always optional and thoughtfully explored together, ensuring safety, preparation, and integration are central to the experience. I also offer cannabis-informed support for clients interested in holistic wellness approaches. Clients often describe working with me as feeling both supportive and clarifying. I help you understand patterns such as anxiety, people-pleasing, emotional burnout, or feeling stuck, while giving you tools to create boundaries, self-trust, and balance. I value transparency, collaboration, and helping you feel empowered in your own healing process. You can expect sessions that are intentional, emotionally attuned, and focused on long-term sustainability rather than quick fixes. Whether you’re navigating stress, trauma, aging transitions, or exploring deeper therapeutic work, my goal is for you to leave feeling more grounded, more seen, and more connected to yourself.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process begins with creating a strong foundation of safety, trust, and understanding. In our first sessions, we focus on getting to know your story, your goals, and what feels most important for you right now. I take time to understand not only your symptoms, but also your strengths, values, cultural background, and the patterns that have shaped your experiences. Sessions are collaborative and guided by what you need in the moment. They often include open dialogue, gentle reflection, nervous system regulation tools, and practical strategies you can use outside of therapy. We may explore thought patterns, emotional responses, body awareness, and relational dynamics to help you gain clarity and build sustainable change. When appropriate, we also discuss integrative options such as Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy. If KAP is a path you’re curious about, the process includes thorough preparation sessions, coordination with medical providers, and thoughtful integration sessions to help you make meaning of the experience and apply insights to your daily life. KAP is always optional and introduced only when it feels aligned and clinically appropriate. Over time, our work evolves based on your growth and needs. Some sessions may feel deeply reflective, while others are more structured and skills-based. Progress is measured not just by symptom relief, but by increased self-awareness, emotional regulation, confidence, and a stronger sense of alignment with yourself. My goal is for each session to feel intentional, supportive, and empowering, giving you both a space to be seen and tools to move forward with clarity and balance.
