About
Daniel Molina, LCSW
Approach
My therapeutic style utilizes an active and light-hearted framework to create a safe and trusting space for you to express yourself however you want. I do this because I believe that while therapy can be difficult or painful at times, it doesn’t always have to be serious. Humor and levity are important parts of therapy too and can be powerful tools to help you achieve your goals.
By drawing upon my experience with various forms of therapy I can help you manage overwhelming emotions, social stressors, and negative thoughts, that may impact you both personally and professionally. Our work together can even help you feel more grounded and confident in your daily life. I have worked with a wide range of clients including college students, entrepreneurs, creatives, BIPOC, and the LGBTQIA+ community
Experience
I’m a New York State licensed bilingual psychotherapist (English and Spanish) practicing in New York City. My path into mental health care started during my undergraduate studies as a first-generation Latinx student. When I began seeking to understand my mind and establishing wellness for myself.
Through my graduate studies at Columbia University and subsequent training and experience I learned to tailor several therapeutic modalities to meet the individual needs of my clients, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), psychodynamic, mindfulness, LGBTQIA+-affirmative therapy, and psychedelic integration.
