Hola me llamo Fanny, I’m a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am passionate about helping people. Change is important and so is healing . I believe everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and understood without judgment. When experiences are dismissed, it can lead to self-doubt, shame, or emotional overwhelm. Together, we make sense of those experiences with compassion and context. I offer a supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. I especially work with high-functioning individuals managing anxiety, overthinking, or emotional heaviness, helping you reconnect, feel grounded, and move forward
Great to meet you!
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, based in New York. I know that reaching out for support takes courage, and I'm here to help you feel safe, understood, and supported. I've spent the past eight years working with adults navigating trauma, sexual addiction and related behaviors, anxiety, and depression.
I'm very experienced, dedicated, flexible in terms of days and hours, and able to be both supportive and appropriately challenging when needed. I especially enjoy working with couples and families as I can "hear" all parties and focus on helping each person speak their truth safely and also to listen. Professionally, I have an LCSW, authored or coauthored 4 books, 3 with HarperCollins and W. W. Norton. I've produced dozens of award-winning videos addressing addiction and relapse prevention widely used in treatment and corrections. I also have raised 3 children and served as both a foster- and adoptive- parent. Above all, I have integrity, a depth of experience, and good humor.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) who enjoys working with people who have made a commitment to their health and personal growth.
I serve youth and adults on issues including, but not limited to: abuse, life transitions, relationship issues, grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, and gender identity issues.
I conduct a private practice in Potsdam, NY, with the goal of providing culturally-competent, trauma-informed, empathic and spiritually aware mental health care.
You've been carrying something heavy — maybe for years. The kind of weight that doesn't show on the outside but makes everything feel harder: getting through a workday, trusting people, feeling safe in your own body. Whether you're navigating trauma, PTSD, OCD, depression, or anxiety — or healing from experiences of sexual or physical abuse — you don't have to keep managing this alone. I work with adults across New York, including women, Black and multicultural clients, and LGBTQ+ individuals who are done shrinking and ready for something to actually shift.
Welcome, and thank you for being here. Reaching out isn’t always easy, and I’m glad you’ve taken this step. I’m a licensed social worker with over eight years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and chronic medical conditions. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and comfortable working at your own pace.
