Emotions can really suck. Due to our individual histories, we develop means to reduce intense emotional experiences that have been inexplicitly linked to anxiety. This can lead to behaviors and means of relating that lead to perpetual anxiety and destructive relationships with ourselves and others. In therapy, we can work together to recognize unconscious patterns and resolve unconscious emotional conflicts; the goal is an increase in happiness and quality of life.

My name is Charles A. Weinberg, LCSW/R, FAPA, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/R therapist based in New York. In the past 38+ years, I have worked with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families seeking counseling, both inline, online, and in my private and Government practices. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including trauma or emotional abuse, stress, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, adolescent issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and other presentations.

Many of my clients find me because they have tried "everything" and nothing seems to work. With long histories of challenging experiences, negative thought patterns, and emotional overload, it can be hard to know where to start. I help clients identify the root causes of their negative emotional states, learn skills to cope with current distress, and assist in processing through past traumas to find a place of healing. Paying equal attention to mind and body, I help bring a sense of calm to both. Not sure if I'm a good fit? Email & we'll chat to find out. I'll provide information and resources if we don't match.
