Mike Cotayo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Looking for a Sex-Positive Therapist Who Gets It? Here I am! 🙂 Hello there! I’m Mike Cotayo, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping people navigate life’s complexities. I earned my MSW from NYU in 2000, and in 2007, I embarked on a transformative journey to become a Gestalt Therapist, further refining my skills to provide compassionate, effective care. As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I bring a unique perspective to my work, specializing in sexuality, relationships, and identity. My practice is rooted in a commitment to embracing diverse lifestyles and choices.
Whether you're exploring kink, polyamory, or the intersection of disability and sexuality (a focus of my Ph.D. research), I’m here to support you with empathy, humor, and zero judgment. Laughter can be a powerful tool for healing. I believe every session should be a safe space where you can be yourself and even find moments of lightness on your journey.
Let’s work together to create a life that feels authentic, fulfilling, and uniquely yours. Ready to take the first step? Reach out today—I’d love to help! Licensed in AZ, CT, NJ, NY.

Andy Lapides
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, BCD
I am an experienced psychotherapist who has been practicing in the field for over twenty years, fifteen years in private practice. I see clients in New Jersey and New York state. I have advanced, post-graduate training in gestalt therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I am genuine, funny, intelligent, sensitive, warm, and I can also be firm/direct depending on the need of the client. Sometimes we need different things in the work.. it takes an experienced, intuitive therapist to help us to really get to the heart of what we need to grow. I have helped many clients through quite challenging things in their lives.
Maybe you are facing something difficult, feel down, worried, overwhelmed, not getting what you want in your relationships, confused about who you are, or don't feel confident in yourself. Either way, I welcome you. Please email me or call. Therapy is a wonderful process and it's worth taking the risk of calling. Making that call is the first step.
