Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Flushing, NY

The Long Island Counseling and Anxiety center was founded to address the need for effective treatment of children and families with Anxiety and OCD. We are licensed clinicians with training and expertise in effective techniques in Cognitive-Behavior Therapy for the full array of anxiety disorders. LICA provides diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of mental health and related issues delivered in a warm, compassionate setting for children and teenagers, as well as for adults. Our mission is to assist our clients in learning and implementing the skills they need to competently overcome the limitations that anxiety creates.

We all experience things that can be challenging to talk about; strong emotions, difficult thoughts, and uncomfortable feelings. Sometimes, it can feel like you’re drowning in your own thoughts. Let’s work it out together. I help people find peace and happiness in their lives again. Through treatments that have been proven to work, you can start to reclaim your thoughts and your life.

The parts of ourselves that we struggle with are sometimes our greatest assets. Therapy can be a place to better realize our strengths and identify where long-term patterns of narratives and behaviors are no longer serving us. I am passionate about working with LGBTQ and POC on topics such as: gender/sexual identity, anxiety, depression, OCD, acculturation, racial identity, social skills, and relationships. My therapeutic approach incorporates both systemic and relational pieces. We do not exist in a vacuum. All of our experiences shape the person we are today.

Navigating life's challenges can be overwhelming. You may be experiencing difficulty transitioning to adulthood, overcoming childhood traumas, navigating family difficulties, struggling with dating and marriage, or making career decisions. Stress might be holding you back from living life to its fullest. If you're seeking help with these issues and aiming for a more meaningful, fulfilling life filled with presence and joy—not just a life that's less bad—I am here to work with you.

I am currently providing teletherapy through phone or video and accepting new clients! Please reach out to schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience. I received my Ms.Ed from CUNY Hunter in Mental Health Counseling. I will provide a warm, caring, and judgement free zone. My goal with clients is to help them connect to their authentic self; as well as work through any barriers that may be preventing them from living a happy and healthy life.

I use energy psychology to help people resolve the problems related to insomnia, low energy, phobia, OCD, PTSD, ADHD. As for the bad mood resulted from physical disorders, I use special energy power from Chinese Qi Gong, Kung Fu, and Zen meditation to help people recover mind-body well-being.

Life can be tough. We all face challenges that are unique. Sometimes we feel that nobody can understand us and we are alone. It is this feeling "the feeling of being understood" that is the center of the therapeutic experience. Feeling understood heals us, supports us, enlivens us. Jonathan has been working in social work for 27 years with people from all walks of life. All people want to have a place they can go to feel understood and feel less lonely, that someone cares. The most important skill to look for in a therapist is the skill of listening.

If you are feeling uncomfortable in an aspect of your life, I deliver psychological services for individuals affected by depression, anxiety, chronic mental illness and other conditions.

Hello! We have yet to meet, but I’m already proud of you for seeking help. It’s incredibly hard and frustrating, especially if you’ve done it before, but the fact that you’ve started searching is a big deal. Were you told to "get over it?" Or, had your concerns and struggles dismissed? In my practice, we don't get over our difficulties - we work through them, and that takes time. I want to be there to help you through that journey. To feel supported and cared for. To heal in a safe, judgment-free space. And to gain a sense of control over your life.

Furthermore, I enjoy helping people better manage life transitions, change habits, or resolve relationship problems and family issues. My therapeutic ‘toolkit’ integrates a wide range of evidence-based practices, more importantly we will identify together what works best for you. I have a deep commitment to understanding and supporting you as a whole person.

Trained as a clinical social worker, I aim to create meaningful and long-lasting change in my clients’ lives. In my eclectic approach, I incorporate various coping techniques and treatment modalities to create the specialized care that my clients need. During my decade long experience, I have treated clients with Anxiety, Depression, OCD, PTSD, ADHD diagnoses and those with career change, health issues and attachment style problems. I work with a wide array of client populations such as young adults, adults and the elderly as well as being inclusive of all gender identities, socioeconomic status and racial backgrounds.

I work with children, individuals & couples. In my work with children I engage them in a non-pressured environment using play & talk therapy as I work with them and their parents to help understand their world, increase awareness, promote effective communication & find meaningful solutions. I do a lot of work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression or anger to learn to cope and express themselves. I selectively use family & interpersonal dynamics. I use EFT to help couples improve the intimacy and closeness that they crave in their marriage while improving communication and understanding.

Over my years of clinical practice I have worked with clients suffering from Anxiety, Depression, Eating Disorders, ADHD, interpersonal, family and job and school related difficulties. Ideally, clients benefit most when we explore the issues to be worked on and when the client is flexible in allowing me to tailor treatment modalities to specific needs. At times we engage in psychodynamic psychotherapy and at times we implement cognitive behavioral interventions to make positive changes in the client's perspective, behaviors and relationships.

Thank you for reaching out. My name is Jonathan Le. I am a licensed mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral counselor and I believe that a non-judgmental and empathetic relationship is the utmost importance of meeting the goals of the client. I believe that counseling is a safe space where it is okay to be authentic and it is okay to be vulnerable too. With therapy we can work on ways to empower, on ways to cope with negative moods and negative behaviors, change faulty thinking and to change lifelong beliefs about one's self. Regardless of situation and behaviors, I believe we can work on ways for you to get back to wellness.

In a rapidly changing world, one can find it challenging to deal with feeling mad, afraid, sad or even glad! My aim is to help alleviate that pain. I use an integrative approach to understand your life experiences, feelings, and the reason for seeking counsel. I believe each person already has in them the potential to grow. A personal transformation through the process of psychotherapy can help facilitate this growth. Eventually, this will give you a greater understanding of yourself, others and the world around you.
