Kristin Manusama

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York specializing in the treatment of anxiety and OCD, particularly when worry, overthinking, guilt, or mental loops begin to interfere with daily life, relationships, and self-confidence. Many of the clients I work with feel stuck in patterns of needing certainty, control, or reassurance—and feel exhausted by how much mental space anxiety takes up.

I also support individuals navigating life transitions, including relationship challenges, family dynamics, and the pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum period. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or struggling with perfectionism and self-doubt, therapy can be a place to slow things down and create meaningful change.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and structured. I help clients build insight into unhelpful thought patterns and emotional responses while also developing practical tools to cope more effectively. For anxiety and OCD, I use evidence-based strategies to help you respond differently to intrusive thoughts and fears—so they no longer control your choices or limit your life.

I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel understood and supported. Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you reconnect with your values, strengthen your self-esteem, and move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

I offer a free consultation to help you determine if we’re a good fit. I am currently providing telehealth sessions only and would be honored to support you on your journey.
