John Vien

I specialize in cognitive and schema therapy for the treatment of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, self-esteem, and personality disorders. I provide both individual and couples therapy for adult patients. I have an MSW degree from New York University where I also completed training as an intern in psychodynamic psychotherapy at Metropolitan Center for Mental Health. I completed post-graduate training in evidence-based psychotherapy with NYC's Mental Health Service Corps.

My therapy style is warm, caring, active, and engaged. My goal is to make you feel heard and understood while also providing active direction in treatment. The focus of therapy is always on achieving your goals in a safe and non-judgmental environment. I specialize in the use of cognitive therapy and schema therapy. These are both evidence-based treatments proven to be effective for a wide variety of problems.

Therapy should not be a mysterious process. I want you to have a clear sense of the direction and aim of your therapy. We will explore and identify the particular problems you wish to work on in treatment and then set goals that we will work toward at each treatment session.
