Hello! My name is Bianca Hormaza Pesola; I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York. I obtained my Master of Social Work degree from Long Island University. Since 2014, I have worked with clients of all ages within several clinical settings. I have over nine years of direct practice experience in the field of mental health. I am committed to helping children, adolescents, and adults achieve mental wellness and overcome challenges in their lives.

As a person of color, I understand the impact of culture and family on life experiences and societal constructs; I want to ensure that you feel safe without any judgment. We will work together, with you coming up with your goals and what you would like to work on as well as identifying the barriers that may prevent you from moving forward. Each session is gently tailored to the client’s needs and level of readiness to address them. As a therapist, I will support you to shift out of what is not necessary to get to what is most valuable to you. I practice through a solution-focused approach, client-centered therapy, and narrative therapy. I want you to be free of emotional pain, able to deal with life on your terms, and able to find meaningful purpose in work, family, friendships, spirituality, and all other life areas by taking it one day at a time!

I'm a licensed clinical social worker and I work with older teenagers and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I have a genuine understanding of — and sensitivity toward — the Orthodox Jewish community and the specific pressures, expectations, and experiences that come with that world. Whether it's the weight of community standards, a difficult family dynamic, identity questions, or something you haven't been able to talk about with anyone in your circle, you don't have to figure it out alone. I want to be honest about who I work best with: clients who are ready to do meaningful inner work and are looking for real change — not just crisis management.

Hello, and welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions.

My approach to psychiatric care begins with listening. I believe every person has a unique story, and understanding your experiences, concerns, and goals is the foundation of effective treatment. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care.

I take a patient-centered, holistic approach, looking beyond symptoms to understand the whole person. Rather than treating diagnoses alone, we will work together to identify what is causing you the most distress and address it one step at a time. I carefully review your psychiatric history, including previous medications, what has or hasn't worked, and any side effects you've experienced, so we can develop a treatment plan that is individualized, practical, and based on the best available evidence.

My treatment philosophy combines medication management with education, supportive therapy, lifestyle recommendations, and collaborative decision-making. I strive to identify the root causes contributing to your symptoms while helping you build lasting coping skills and improve your overall quality of life.

Above all, patient safety, compassion, and collaboration guide every decision I make. My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and participating in decisions about your care. Together, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that supports your mental wellness and helps you achieve meaningful, lasting progress.

I believe that healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and understood. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a warm, compassionate, and collaborative space where clients can navigate life's challenges while building resilience and confidence.

I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Adelphi University and my Master of Arts degree in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling from Hofstra University. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My background in both clinical social work and vocational rehabilitation allows me to support clients not only with their emotional well-being, but also with developing confidence, independence, and direction during times of change.

My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, family conflict, parenting concerns, and stress. I have a particular passion for supporting individuals and families navigating divorce, co-parenting, blended family dynamics, reunification, and the emotional impact these transitions can have on both children and adults.

I have nearly a decade of experience working with a variety of individuals with many backgrounds. I emphasize the importance of a trauma-informed and supportive approach. I have expertise in treating a number of diagnoses, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and trauma. I offer a number of modalities, including CBT, MI, DBT, EMDR and IFS.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes people thrive when therapy feels personal, collaborative, and rooted in what truly matters to them. My work centers on helping clients build agency, strengthen resilience, and make meaningful changes in their lives.

I’ve worked in community clinics and LGBTQ‐affirming organizations with clients of all ages. I specialize in working with teens, college students, and adults facing trauma, anxiety, depression, and identity‐related concerns, including self‐esteem, self‐acceptance, and gender dysphoria. I strive to offer a steady, supportive environment where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered to move forward.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 25 years, but in the last decade, have shifted my main focus to clients aged 21+ who are struggling with anxiety and depression.
