Kristine Samonte, LMSW

Kristine Samonte, LMSW

Psychotherapist
NY
As a therapist, I strive to provide a warm, empathic space for healing while honoring your needs and priorities. My first objective with all clients is to develop a therapeutic alliance based on trust and empathy. In our time together, I will help you feel empowered to overcome the challenges you may face. I am committed to helping you discover your resilience and cultivate lasting emotional well-being. My style is collaborative and strengths-based, and I believe everyone has a unique experience. I received my Master's in Social Work from Columbia University. My expertise includes providing psychotherapy to children to help identify and manage their emotions, supporting young adults navigating life transitions, and assisting adults coping with depression by challenging negative self-talk and practicing self-compassion. I also have experience helping individuals overcome social anxiety and reframing intrusive thoughts to foster healthier relationships. My approach incorporates a combination of treatment modalities tailored to your journey, including CBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy. As a woman of color, I am passionate about creating space for voices that have been silenced. I respect the diverse cultural backgrounds of my clients and work to accommodate your needs. I believe that anyone willing to seek self-discovery can attain fulfillment in both their personal lives and relationships. I look forward to working with you to acknowledge your strengths and promote increased well-being and quality of life.
