Times are stressful. So many people are feeling confused or fearful or misunderstood. Sometimes, starting on the path to feeling better is to simply start sharing and exploring ideas. I am a social worker (NY licensed) with over 6 years of experience. I have worked with adolescents, seniors, and all the stages in between. I have helped many people with issues such as depression, anxiety, navigating the workforce as well as crisis and trauma. I also have a background working with seniors and approaching concerns around aging and all that could come with it. I provide a non-judgmental approach and have been described as open-minded and caring. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and have worked with people from different cultural backgrounds. I also have experience with people with substance use issues. I use a variety of approaches tailored toward each individual. I favor a strengths-based approach in order to help people feel empowered and appreciate their abilities. By knowing what you are strong in, you can own your power and help move yourself towards self-awareness and making positive changes. Let's take this journey towards growth and connection together. Feel free to reach out. I will be here.

Dr. Victor Manocchio
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (PA) with more than has more than 25 years of experience as a Mental Health Therapist. I hold a Doctorate of Social Work, which was completed in October 2019. I treat children, adults, and families - specializing in trauma, anxiety, autism, and substance abuse from a strengths perspective. I have over 200 hours of specialized training in treating trauma and abuse, with completed certifications in autism, as well as substance abuse. I have helped many patients with many concerns over the past 25 years. I treat from a holistic approach - body, mind, and spirit. Research states that treatment should include physical, mental, emotional, culture, religion, spirituality, and everything that makes you who you are. "Holistic" has become somewhat of a buzzword. Let me describe what holistic means to me. It means that counseling will not fix a thyroid problem. Holistic means that a problem in one area of your life will affect every area of your life. For example, let's talk about depression. Sometimes, people do not have depression. Instead, they might need to work at forgiving themselves or someone else; or maybe they just need hope that life will get better. Alternatively, they might have an underlying medical condition. Sometimes, we just need help to grieve the loss of a dearly loved person or a beloved animal. I help people to find healthy coping skills, people to trust, and ways to live life to the fullest. Be at Peace, Dr. Vic (he/ him) Dr. Victor John Manocchio, II, DSW, LCSW License PA- CW014668; NY – 090111 NPI 1487828554
