About Giuseppe

Dr. Giuseppe Sottile is a clinical psychologist who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and life changes. He uses clear, practical talk to help clients work through concerns about self-esteem, career transitions, and interpersonal communication. Dr. Sottile practices in New York and offers therapy in English and Italian.

He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most to them. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try small, testable changes in behavior. Mindfulness-based ideas and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when they fit the issue at hand.

Over 15 years he has supported people facing trauma, grief, addictions, and parenting strain. He has worked with clients dealing with attachment and abandonment worries, chronic illness challenges, body image, and codependency. He often helps people manage workplace stress and navigate identity questions, including LGBT concerns.

His style is practical and collaborative. Sessions focus on short-term coping tools and longer-term patterns that keep people stuck. He frames goals around what a client wants to change and how to get there.

Dr. Sottile holds the NY Psychologist 019523 credential. To begin, readers are asked to use the site Start Therapy button and complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling a session.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful for exploring identity, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes, which can be effective for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, and these skills can be practiced and reviewed during sessions.

Deciding which approach fits best is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, trying things and adjusting as needed. The emphasis is on collaboration and building a plan that feels realistic for daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or audio in ways that suit their energy level and bandwidth. Talk with the therapist when scheduling to find session arrangements that fit your routine and goals.
