Hi, I am Malak Alsaidi, a licensed clinical therapist in New York. I provide warm, supportive, and nonjudgemental space where clients can feel comfortable exploring life's challenges and working towards their goals. My experience includes helping children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and relationship concerns and life transitions. I believe in collaborative approach that builds on each person's strength and helps create meaningful, lasting change.
I have been practicing as a Social Worker for over 38 years. I have a lot of experience in the areas of behavioral health services which includes a host of treatment focus areas and chemical dependency. I am energetic and enthusiastic about my work with clients. I am currently accepting new clients at this time. I like to incorporate in my work with clients self expression and self exploration. Outside of my work I love to engage in dance therapy, exercise for fitness, reading and sewing.
I am trained as an educator teaching dialogue communication skills, emotional skills and social awareness for navigating a complex and diverse world. Becoming a therapist is my second career path, and this background has allowed me to engage with more of the depth of factors contributing to distress in people’s lives. I bring a wide-ranging approach to understanding the depth of harm and challenges in your life so that we can move towards thorough therapeutic solutions.

My professional background includes work in college counseling centers, community mental health, domestic violence and trauma-informed settings, multicultural behavioral health clinics, and private practice. This breadth allows me to understand both the personal and systemic factors that shape emotional well-being. Clients often describe me as grounded, thoughtful, direct when needed, and deeply attuned.
