“Lariannie is the best therapist I have ever worked with by a landslide. She creates such a welcome and safe space to be vulnerable and honest without fear of judgment and you can tell she genuinely cares about what she does. I have struggled to make progress in the past but since seeing her I have made strides in healing and embracing my authentic self that I never thought would be possible. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Lariannie (Lari) truly SEES her clients, taking the time to understand their journey and their unique experiences, meeting them where they're at and helping them navigate healing with authenticity. Personally, I have considered Lari to be one of the biggest gifts in my life and am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance she has consistently provided as I navigate my own recovery. She brings compassion to each session and encourages connection back to self, taking the time to pause and introduce somatic practices that help you feel grounded and notice what it is you're feeling amidst the mental chatter that so often dictates our lives. Lari is a truly gifted therapist with a calling to help others heal so that they can live full, healthy lives. ”

Getting to know Lariannie Medina
I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from New York University. I specialize in working with women who may experience anxiety, depression, disordered eating, sexual trauma, low self-esteem, body image concerns, chronic pain, digestive issues, endometriosis, and hormonal imbalances. I have particular expertise in somatic and embodiment modalities that help navigate grief, stuckness, panic, perfectionism, and behavioral challenges related to asserting boundaries and people-pleasing.
Although I use traditional modalities like CBT, DBT, and ACT, my approach also includes IFS (Internal Family Systems), Somatic Therapy, and Polyvagal Theory. If you are someone who has been in talk therapy before and felt like nothing changed, you might benefit from these specialty approaches that focus on reconnecting back to the body and nervous system.
I also speak Spanish and welcome clients seeking therapy in English or Spanish.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I prioritize authenticity in every session, recognizing how essential trust and relatability are in our relationships. I aim to create a safe space for you to meet yourself where you’re at on your journey.
Together, we'll engage in a collaborative and personalized process. We might share tears, laughter, or moments of quiet reflection, all while knowing that you don’t have to navigate this path alone.
Safety, self-empowerment, and a strong therapeutic relationship are my three priorities. Sessions are always rotted in compassion, empathy, honesty and curiosity.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
On our first session we will briefly go over the intake forms that you completed electronically. I will spend the majority of the time getting to know you at a pace that is comfortable for our developing relationship—these initial questions & our discussion will likely continue through the second session. We will discuss goals and expectations. Please feel free to ask questions or bring a list of concerns or topics you would like to cover.
For the first 6-8 weeks, I strongly recommend that you work we me weekly. This allows me to get to know you and for us to build rapport. After that, if you would like to change the frequency of our sessions, please bring it up to me; treatment, should work according to your needs. Ultimately it is up to you to decide how often you attend therapy.
