Riah Cohen

I am a licensed clinical social worker who earned my Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University in 2010. I have worked in diverse clinical settings with individuals across the lifespan and from a wide range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds. My clinical experience includes working extensively with individuals managing chronic illness, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. My practice is grounded in a thoughtful, client-centered approach that values reflection, collaboration, and meaningful change.

I take a collaborative approach to therapy and am focused on building a strong, trusting, respectful relationship. I help clients reflect on their thoughts and emotions, understand patterns that may be affecting their well-being, and work toward their personal goals. I have particular experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and coping with chronic illness. I aim to provide a supportive space where clients can explore, grow and make meaningful changes.

In our first session, we’ll focus on understanding your needs and goals for therapy. I’ll answer any questions you have and help you begin exploring how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. This is a chance for us to start building a trusting relationship and create a plan that works for you.
