Linda Danahy is a psychotherapist with a Masters in Clinical Social Work from Columbia University and post-graduate training at the Gestalt practitioner program. She has 18 years of experience working in private practice, hospitals, and Employee Assistance Programs (E.A.P.) working with young adults, adults, couples, and families. She is currently in private practice in New York City and worked until recently as the onsite psychotherapist at Discovery Communications.
Her passion in life is to improve the lives of individuals through either individual, couples, family treatment, or systems-based work on an organizational level. She also provides a range of cognitive-behavioral therapies, crisis-targeted, and solution-focused therapies. She is optimally matched for clients seeking a psychotherapy experience that is focused and active, particularly those individuals and couples wrestling with anxiety, depression, trauma, disabilities, and deeply painful feelings. She provides patients with a model for understanding their difficulties and feelings but also a proposed plan of action. She believes these methods provide an effective approach to helping people to change behaviors and to heal.
