Numan Dut

I’m Numan Dut, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor working with adolescents and adults throughout New York. My background includes education from Stony Brook University and John Jay College of Criminal Justice, along with experience working in school and community settings. My experience as a first responder has also given me a deeper understanding of resilience, stress, and the challenges that can come with everyday life. I enjoy helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationships, life stressors, and men’s mental health while creating a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. I draw from CBT, psychodynamic and attachment informed approaches, mindfulness, and strengths-based interventions, depending on what fits your needs. I’m interested in understanding not just what you’re going through, but what has shaped you and where you want to go next. Therapy is a team effort, and we’ll work together to build practical skills, gain insight, and create meaningful change.

Your first session is a chance to slow down, get comfortable, and talk about what brings you to therapy. We’ll explore what’s been going on, what you hope to change, and what you would like therapy to look like. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you walk through the door we’ll take it one step at a time. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and with a clearer sense of where we can go from here.
