Sydney Lerner

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 29 mi away • New York, NY


Hello, I’m Sydney Lerner, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. I offer therapy in Midtown Manhattan and virtually across the state. I work with teens and young adults navigating OCD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and family dynamics. My approach is relational and psychodynamic, exploring how past and present relationships shape emotions and patterns. For clients who have completed OCD treatment in the past, I also integrate ERP knowledge to support long-term growth. I earned my BA from Johns Hopkins, my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern, and completed a year-long psychodynamic training at the National Institute of the Psychotherapies.
