Psychoanalytic therapy offers a different kind of conversation. It’s a space where you can speak freely, without needing to organize your thoughts in advance, and where what you say is taken seriously. Often, thoughts and feelings that haven’t been spoken—even to yourself—begin to take shape. Something that has been unclear or just out of reach can gradually come into view. Over time, patterns emerge, and what once felt fixed can begin to loosen.

Welcome to Headway. My name is Maria LoCastro, LCSWR. I've been a clinical social worker for over 20 years and have been working in the mental health field for almost 30 years. My path has been shaped by a deep interest in understanding how people adapt, cope, and heal through difficult experiences. I’ve worked across a range of settings, including outpatient mental health clinics, community-based programs, and leadership roles where I’ve supervised clinicians and helped shape services. These experiences shaped my approach to be both insight-driven and practical—helping clients understand themselves more deeply while also making meaningful, lasting changes in their daily lives.

As a therapist, I have worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds in New York City. My approach as a therapist is framed by my background as a music therapist combined with elements of depth-oriented psychotherapy and traditional talk therapy.

It is my understanding that fostering strong therapeutic relationships is at the forefront of successful psychotherapy work. Within my work as a psychotherapist, I apply a flexible approach to help my clients in whatever ways work for them. Clients find me playful and direct and value my authenticity.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth. I'm an LCSW with 14+ years of experience helping clients work towards their life goals.

Life today can be very stressful. We play many roles and we are constantly bombarded with information. We have many responsibilities and too little time. Sometimes it's hard to talk to your friends because they're going through the same thing and you don't want to burden them.
