Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has been working in the mental health field since 1996. I bring significant experience working in underserved communities as a psychotherapist, Clinical Director, and Program Director of multiple homeless shelters serving families, single adults, and adult couples without children. These experiences imbued me with deep experience working with individuals with complex trauma, PTSD, substance use and abuse issues, immigration trauma, and serious mental illness. Additionally, I work with couples, families, and high-achieving high-net worth individuals from diverse personal and professional backgrounds.

I'm a graduate of Fordham University’s prestigious Graduate School of Social Service, where I later went on to teach as an Adjunct Professor of Social Work. Additionally, I'm a graduate of the Practitioner Program in Gestalt Therapy from Gestalt Associates for Psychotherapy in New York, as well as a Certified Integrated Feeling Therapist, both experiential, body-based modalities.

I'm a queer therapist, specialized in working with the LGBTQIA+ community from an anti-oppressive lens.

I have been a psychotherapist over 34 years to individuals & couples. I address hurt, sadness, anger, anxiety & depression & the loss of emotional contact in your vital relationships. Painful loss can arise from traumatic shock, & from the non-traumatic experiences of growing up. I can help you identify your true needs, so that you can repair your connection with those you love. Healing is in the therapeutic relationship & the skills I can teach you that can enable you to live a freer life.

Hello and welcome. I’m Genevieve Clineman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping adults manage anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, behavioral concerns, and life transitions. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University and provide a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and understood.

I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, strengths-based therapy, and person-centered therapy to help clients develop coping skills, improve emotional wellness, build confidence, and create lasting change. Together, we work toward greater balance, clarity, resilience, and healthier relationships.

I believe healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in practical tools that create meaningful change. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and ADHD.

I aim to create a space where you can show up fully — without judgment — while also being gently challenged toward growth. Therapy with me is not just about talking through problems; it’s about building awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing skills that help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

My style is warm, direct, and supportive. I integrate evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and strengths-based interventions. Whether you’re working through past experiences or trying to manage current stressors, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe while still encouraging progress.

I am especially passionate about helping individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from their sense of purpose. My goal is to support you in honoring who you are while discovering who you’re becoming.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I believe that mental health is essential for maintaining happiness, well-being, and a sense of security. While it may seem counterintuitive, seeking help is a courageous act, and showing vulnerability is a true sign of strength, not weakness.
