Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.2 mi away • New York, NY


Hello, I’m Sydney Lerner, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. I offer therapy in Midtown Manhattan and virtually across the state. I work with teens and young adults navigating OCD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and family dynamics. My approach is relational and psychodynamic, exploring how past and present relationships shape emotions and patterns. For clients who have completed OCD treatment in the past, I also integrate ERP knowledge to support long-term growth. I earned my BA from Johns Hopkins, my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern, and completed a year-long psychodynamic training at the National Institute of the Psychotherapies.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Brooklyn

Finding the right OCD therapist in Brooklyn starts with understanding what kind of care works best for you. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is often addressed with structured therapeutic approaches, and a qualified mental health professional can help you understand which options may be appropriate for you. Some people also work with a psychiatrist for medication management alongside therapy. When browsing providers, look for a licensed therapist or psychiatrist who lists OCD as a specialty — not just a general area of practice — and read their bio to understand their approach and training.

Brooklyn is home to a wide range of mental health providers, but narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you beyond specialty: whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, a provider who shares your cultural background, or someone available on evenings or weekends. A free phone consultation can help you gauge whether a provider's style feels like the right match before you commit to a full session.

Therapy in New York City can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. That makes it easier to find an OCD specialist in Brooklyn who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
