Therapists in New York

I am licensed in New York with 24 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, anger management, motivation, self esteem, & confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

I’m so glad you’re here. I believe therapy should be a safe and encouraging space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns without judgment. My approach is exclusively text-based, offering a structured yet flexible way to process emotions, recognize recurring thought patterns, and create meaningful change—all at your own pace. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness with the Patterns & Pathways (PAP) framework, a method designed to help you: ✔ Recognize emotional and behavioral patterns that may be holding you back. ✔ Reframe unhelpful thought loops and develop a healthier mindset. ✔ Strengthen self-awareness and create new pathways aligned with your goals. Why Text-Based Therapy? More Space for Reflection – Writing gives you time to slow down, process your emotions, and gain deeper insight without feeling pressured to respond immediately. Structured Yet Flexible – You can revisit our conversations anytime, helping you track patterns, recognize progress, and reinforce growth. Less Pressure, More Openness – Many people find it easier to express themselves in writing, allowing for deeper self-exploration and clarity. Practical & Actionable – Our sessions will focus on recognizing patterns, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and developing tools you can apply in daily life. I know that therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time—growth can be empowering, even uplifting, and sometimes a little humor helps too! Whether you're navigating anxiety, self-doubt, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I’m here to support you. Let’s work together to create the change you’re looking for—one message at a time.

Hi; I’m Lewis “Lou” Perry, I am an LMHC and have worked in the field of mental health for 25years. I am looking forward to assisting you with your issues and concerns that may be stopping you from moving forward. Building a solid foundation through counseling is such a strong step, that although initially feels a bit scary is really an exciting adventure.

PTSD, Panic Disorder, GAD, and Depression, and issues of Co-morbid diagnosis are a few of what I encompass while working with clients. As others of my profession, I use different models to explore how best to help you. My goal is always to guide you through and understand the issues that are blocking you from the daily grind that life brings to us. We’ll “partner up” and work together to resolve the issues you have.
