Do you feel overwhelmed and consumed by stressful life situations? I just may be your answer to relieving some of the emotional stress experienced as I specialize in providing individual therapy. Everyone has the right to feel emotionally healthy and live stress free. I believe this begins with giving yourself permission to address those emotions/behaviors that are disrupting your life. For some of my patients their treatment includes resolving issues from their past and moving forward. My style with patients is always collaborative, interactive and motivating. I use empathic and deep listening to HEAR my patients.

I use therapeutic approaches that are appropriate for each individual situation. I’m a culturally competent therapist who is passionate about helping you understand yourself, experiences, relationships and the world you live in. My therapeutic approach includes a combination of insight-oriented psychotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Of most importance to, me is working with you to achieve your goals through counseling session. I strive to meet you “where you are” and move you forward to heal, change and grow in positive ways. I provide counseling on a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, educational concerns, work and life balance.

I am a dedicated and compassionate mental health counselor with over nine years of professional experience in crisis management/inpatient psychiatric treatment and outpatient care. Since earning my MS in Mental Health Counseling, I have committed to providing evidence-based therapeutic interventions to individuals facing a wide range of challenges to include depression, anxiety, eating disorders, as well as major life transitions.

My name is Edili Marleny Maldonado, and I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York. I have been working in the mental health field for the past nine years. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, elders, high-risk clients, and clients from different social backgrounds, ethnicities, cultures, ages, genders, economic statuses, and mental health disorders.

I have an eclectic approach to therapy. Some approaches that have been consistently receptive with clients are cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, modeling, motivational interviewing, etc., which I generally use. However, I typically prefer to match the clients' needs to specific therapeutic approaches, thereby significantly increasing the effectiveness of treatment.

My desire to help others drove me to work in the mental health field; thus, I strive to help clients improve themselves to lead healthier, fulfilling lives by implementing various coping skills. I aim to empower clients through insight and strategies to enrich their lives further and become self-sufficient in managing their problems, issues, and situations. Thus, clients gain self-awareness, acceptance of self, harmony, and mental balance/equilibrium.

My expertise comprises working with individuals struggling with ADHD, grief/loss, oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, panic, stress, and mood disorders. I am also proficient in Spanish and have experience providing treatment in that language.

Let's begin the healthy and healing process together.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am passionate about helping individuals create

meaningful change in their lives through a collaborative, supportive, and empowering therapeutic process.

I specialize in working with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or

feeling stuck.

Rather than focusing only on problems, I work with clients to uncover their strengths, develop practical

skills, and reconnect with their values. Whether you’re dealing with past trauma, daily stress, or seeking

personal growth, therapy can be a space for insight, healing, and real change.

I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University and bring both clinical training and

deep compassion into every session.
