I work compassionately with clients to safely explore and understand how they came to be who they are and how they may best address their issues. I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression and trauma. Discussing and exploring your unique history, mental processes, feelings, relationship patterns and significant experiences can lead to clearer understanding and insights which can be transformative. As an Asian-American woman, I am sensitive to social justice. In my work, I endeavor to treat all clients with respect, nonjudgment and open-mindedness.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with decades of experience working with adults who are coping with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I have trained and practiced across private practice, hospital, VA, forensic, and outpatient settings. I bring a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to helping clients better understand themselves and move forward with clarity and stability.

I first received my Master's in Guidance & Counseling in the 1990s from Hunter College in Manhattan and obtained an Advanced Certificate in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo. I have also been a practicing, licensed massage therapist for nearly 30 years. I have clinical experience providing empathic mental health care for individuals, couples, families, and groups and have treated anxiety, trauma, depression, personality and eating disorders, as well as other mental health concerns. I have also treated physical disease conditions and physical trauma with mind/body techniques. Each client is unique, and raising awareness of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is the focus in working collaboratively and intentionally towards realistic solutions.

I am a licensed mental health counselor committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and achieve lasting personal growth. My approach centers on setting realistic goals, building resilience, and uncovering the inner strength needed to find joy and meaning in life.

I also help individuals and families improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships. Additionally, I provide tools for managing anxiety, depression, and life transitions, equipping clients with strategies to navigate challenges.

Hi, I’m Pasqual D’Onofrio, a licensed mental health counselor with over a decade of experience helping adults move through anxiety, burnout, and relationship distress.

My approach blends practical tools with reflective, emotionally attuned therapy. Whether you are navigating stress, uncertainty, or painful communication patterns, our work creates space to understand what is happening beneath the surface, and how to shift it. I offer a supportive, focused environment where you will not be

rushed, or expected to have it all figured out.

I work exclusively via telehealth with clients throughout New York State. Therapy with me will feel like finally being able to name what you have been carrying and learning how to meet it with clarity, curiosity, and care. If you are ready to begin from where you are, I’d be honored to support you.
