New York City, New York therapist: Colette Pauta, counselor/therapist
MI

Colette Pauta

Counselor/Therapist
If you're looking for someone who will truly listen and help you feel heard and seen, my goal is to offer a space where you don't have to filter or perform. I take a warm, relational, and collaborative approach to therapy, meeting you where you're at with curiosity and care. I believe that humor has a place in healing, and when used thoughtfully, it can make difficult conversations feel less intimidating and more human. My work is trauma-informed and grounded in understanding how your experiences, relationships, and environment shape the challenging you're facing. Together, we'll explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that feel relevant to your everyday life. Therapy with me is not about having all the answers, it's about creating space to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. Whether you're thinking about therapy for the first time, or have been in the counseling space before, I welcome the opportunity to get to know who you are at your core.

Manhattan, New York therapist: Resilience Therapy Group, therapist
MI

Resilience Therapy Group

Therapist, LCSW, LMHC, LMSW, MHC-LP, PMH-C
You're the one who holds a lot together, at work, at home, for the people who count on you. Underneath that, something has been asking for attention: the anxiety that won't quiet down, the patterns that keep repeating, the grief or the history you've never had room to feel. At Resilience Therapy, a group psychotherapy practice with offices in Manhattan and Port Washington and online therapy across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and several other states, you don't have to sort it out alone. Our clinicians bring real range, from anxiety, trauma, and OCD to addiction, relationships, depression, and life transitions, so the care you get actually fits the life you're living. Because we're a team rather than a single therapist, we can match you with the clinician who truly fits what you're navigating, whether that's an evidence-based approach like CBT or EMDR, family and couples work, or a warm, depth-oriented space to understand yourself more honestly. Our therapists work with individuals, couples, families, teens, and adults, and some also offer sessions in additional languages such as Russian, French, and Spanish. Reaching out is often the hardest part, so let's take that first step together and find the right person for you.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Resouling Therapy, licensed mental health counselor
MI

Resouling Therapy

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I (Mike) help clients put words to their inner experiences in ways that allow them to connect more deeply with themselves, leading to greater healing and freedom. Many clients share their surprise at how accurately I reflect what they are trying to express, and they often describe feeling seen and understood in our sessions. I work primarily with men, helping them identify and make sense of their emotions so they can express themselves more fully and experience more satisfying relationships. The therapists on our team work from this same foundation. Through close, ongoing supervision, I emphasize attunement, emotional accuracy, and a steady, non-judgmental presence, so clients can expect thoughtful, relational therapy that values understanding before problem-solving.

My practice focuses on high-achieving professionals and students navigating mood and anxiety disorders, ADHD, perfectionism, and identity development.
